Concept[edit]

A concept is short phrase or sentence describing the idea of the character. It can be a trope, couple sentence background, or a summary of their story role or character type. Describe your character in whatever way rings true to you

The Basics[edit]

Motive[edit]

The motives and goals of the story character

Approach[edit]

General attitude and how they approach things

Defaults[edit]

The general actions they will take if unimpeded

The costs for failing against them in conflicts

Advance[edit]

Type[edit]

The type of character, whether their in-world or story role

Personality[edit]

Underlying personality and mindset

Attitude[edit]

The persona that they project, how they appear to think

Background[edit]

Upbringing and origin of the character

Ocupation[edit]

Professional career, community role, performance talent

Skillsets[edit]

Skillsets represent hobbies, careers, and other dedicated pursuits. Alternately, they can be general categories or themes of action. They include all of the knowledge, training, licensing, social ties, and other elements the named pursuits would typically include.

Poor skillsets should be much broader than others. Paramedic, do-it-yourselfer, and librarian are examples of appropriate expert skillsets. In contrast, clumsy and weak skillsets should be wide descriptions of action types, more along the lines of investigation or fighting.

Idealy they should have atleast 6 skillsets and is they have over 12 you should look into combining/cascading them. 1-2 rank 7.0+, 2-3 rank 5.0-6.9, 1-2 rank 3.0-4.9, 1 rank < 3.0.

0 No Skill: The character has no knowledge of, talent for, or skills at the indicated occupation or ability.

1 A Raw Beginner: The character knows just enough to perform a skill, or be dangerous with it. [HA's Note: EL 0]

2 An Apprentice: The character has learned most of the basics, but has yet to become competent.

3 Average: Most folk who practice this skill never go much beyond this level of mastery. [HA's Note: EL 11?]

4 Fairly Competent: The character is better than average and shows talent, but nothing extraordinary.

5 Good! The character may be a journeyman at this skill. There is real talent here that needs further developing.

6 Very Good!! The character is good enough to have some razzle dazzle at this skill, but is not yet a master. But then, only a master of the skill would know that. [HA's Note: 10'000 hours]

7 A Master: Many will seek the character for service and instruction.

8 A Renowned Master: Folk from distant corners of the world know of the character's skill.

9 A Grand Master: There are few, if any, with greater skill. The character's skill is known throughout the world. Such talented people are quite rare.

10 Legendary Skill: Though still within mortal bounds, tales of the character's prowess will live on long after she is gone. Skill of this level is hardly ever encountered, if at all.

11+ Mythical Skill: The character has ability far beyond the mortal norms. Some kind of supernatural influence must be present for the character to obtain this level of mastery.
