Some info so you can start thinking about characters: Cathak Aden is graduating from the House of Bells and has invited you to join him on an adventure because you are his best friend from childhood/best friend at the House of Bells/favorite cousin/etc. If you are at the House of Bells, he asked you in person, otherwise, he asked you by letter. You have already agreed to go, even though he has not told you what his plans are. He says he will announce the adventure at his graduation party, which you are invted to with your families, 10 days after graduation. You will leave soon after that. The game calender will start the day of your graduation.

The characters are young so I would suggest no backgrounds over three dots. That isnt a rule though. Different backgrounds make more or less sense for a young exalt. IE, the family background has nothing to do with age, but influence takes a life time to build up. Keep in your head the idea of young characters that have yet to go out into the world and prove themselves. Your stipend is probably resources 2 or 3 depending on the family you come from. We will be using the custom currency rules we came up with. It would be normal for you to take a few servants with you or something like that while traveling. An ally might be another recent grad. Dont bring any 3 dot allies or 30 soldiers with you though. After the game starts, backgrounds will be given and lost based on ingame actions. They will cost nothing, but can be lost as well. I will generally use them to reward the characters based on their actions. Find an artifact? Keep it. Save a princess? Gain some influence or reputation. Kill innocents? Gain reputation. Piss off your family? Gain a penalty to your stipend. Etc.

Questions? Thoughts? Let me know. --Macabreengel 13:11, 27 April 2011 (EDT)
