IMPORTANT NOTES

  1. In this campaign, the birthday of your character is important (see the link.)

  2. When creating a character, start with creating a Google Doc or Google Folder for your character and sending the GM a link on it with the commentators mode (so that the GM could leave their notes).

    • The main doc must include character's backstory/dossier, but is not limited to it. You may very well use it to have a sort of conversation with me through your notes. If it is only one Google Doc instead of a folder, then put character's image below the backstory/dossier. Also, at the top of your character's backstory/dossier, before everything else, put a following information:

      • Birthday and Martyr according to the birthday,

      • Pathbuilder link (it is not updated dynamically, so if any changes are made, the link must be regenerated),

      • Chosen Hero Point cards (see below)

    Example:

  3. You have to choose 1 card from Hero Point Deck. Every time you want to use a Hero Point, you can choose to apply this card instead. Every 3 levels after 1st, you add one new card from the deck to your hand. Here's archive with all cards. On the first session, make sure that you have one card chosen!
    You can download these card from here.

  4. When creating your character, think on whether they have experienced death and resurrection already (maybe even multiple times?) or no, or maybe they've even been on the edge of a True Death! It might be a great impact on your char's backstory and mindset. Just keep it reasonable, if you'd decide to kill your character one or two times.
