Sometimes you build 100 bridges and nobody ever recognizes you as a bridge builder. > >>Backstory >>Your History serves as a foundation to be able to explain your characters current predisposition towards their environment, as well as their current personality. The History of a character is the explanation for there present identity, and can be an elaborate retelling of Shakespeare, or a few brief sentences, and serves a narrative purpose more than a mechanical purpose >> > >>Personality >>A characters personality can be defined by their likelihood to behave within a small range on a variety of the following spectra. >>It is useful to plot out where the character typically falls on these spectra to help consistently inform the personality of the character. >>Prefers the known and reliable <----> Prefers the unknown and novel >>Prefers category, definition, preparation <----> Prefers the undefined, disorder, and randomness >>Prefers solitude <----> Prefers the presence of others >>Prefers cooperation at the expense of yourself <----> Prefers your method at the expense of cooperation >>Prefers deeper analysis of the future despite the risk of anxiety <----> Prefers narrower analysis of the future for less stress >> > >>Foundational ethic >>A foundational ethic of a character or a foundational 'why' is the fundamental truth your character holds. This serves as the scaffolding for every other belief, conscious or unconscious, that makes up your characters outlook on the world, and are the absolute hardest things to change about a character. These are typically definitive statements of an often religious connotation such as: >>Life is inherently good. >>The world is my enemy. >>My life is an extension of my tribe. >> > >>Character progression >>Through the progress of the journey and narrative, talent points are distributed to the players at the GM's discretion, typically in even clusters of 1 mind, body, or soul. >>This is a currency that both serves as a method of equalizing the quantitative aspects of character growth, as well as make slight distinctions between development of different characters without providing an insurmountable disparity. >[!Quote|no-i 3 no-t] >>[!column|no-i 2 no-t] >>>[!Quote|no-i 3 ttl-c] ## [[Masteries]] >> >>>[!Quote|no-i 3 ttl-c] ## [[Constellation]] >[!Quote|no-i 3 no-t] >>[!column|no-i
