Creating a Character
If you’re playing a Warden, follow these steps to create them:
- Skim through the world if you want a sense of where you’ll be playing. Also skim the core rules rules, especially the ones about dice, ideals, and powers.
- Choose your Warden’s background, which will also prompt you to define an Ideal related to their origins and create a Tie.
- Choose their power. Describe how it manifested: careful tutelage, near-death experience, random happenstance, etc.
- Give them a name and pronouns
- Describe their look. All Wardens carry a coil of thirty feet of rope as a tool of their trade; describe how your Warden carries or wears theirs. They probably also carry a cutting implement, like a knife or an axe. Describe it, if you like.
- Assign 6 points across their Ability Ratings. No rating may have more than 2 points for now.
- Create a Tie with a resident of Twill (either one in the existing list or one of your own creation).
- Turn to the player to your right. Create a Tie with one of their existing Ties.
- Bonus round: Turn to the player two spaces to your right. Describe a rumor about their Warden or a tale of their exploits that you’ve heard.
- Extra bonus: Turn to the player across the table from you. Describe a previous situation your Wardens worked together.
