First Session (April) Character Questions

  • What are your character's current (short term and long term) goals? Ask yourself: What does your character aspire to accomplish in their life? What are they most focused on right now? Is there anything they hope to accomplish within the next year? The next week?
  • Describe your character's sense of style. What do they look like? How do they carry themselves? What kind of clothes or armor do they wear? Does the image they currently present match the one they aspire to?
  • Pick one of your trained skills and tell me how your character came to learn it- and why. Did they learn from a mentor, or were they self-taught? Is it a skill they use out of necessity, out of passion, or as a means to make money?

    1.) Thimble, while she loves traveling with her family's circus, has grown bored of the carny life. Scholarly, much like her mother, she desires to collect knowledge on many subjects. Mainly, she wants to learn about magic. Ratfolk have passed down many stories of a time when magic was bountiful, but things have changed. She wants to know why and how it happened.   2.) When she's not adventuring, Thimble dresses smart and feminine. Long, flowing skirts paired with button-up tops or fitted trousers with a patterned vest. Also hats; she very much loves hats. She likes to present herself in a prim and proper manner, partially because people assume ratfolk are messy and disorganized. Adventuring wise, she wears loose, comfortable clothing with leather armor. And a pair of ridiculous goggles for safety.   3.) Thimble is trained in occult knowledge. While her family disapproves of her messing around with those sorts of things, occultism is her special interest. She's barely scratched the surface with her research and intends to further her studies. Not for nefarious or selfish purposes; she simply likes the challenge of uncovering what's been deliberately hidden from most.
    1) Aeki is lost, figuratively. Years of training to become an errant complete that same call and drive that brought her to the Swords now calls her out, away. That is not to say she does't feel the tug of her Lady on her hear, guiding her. But that that same direction now calls her elsewhere.
    2) A young woman who matching the style of the age, what she wears in the city and country do not differ, atleast not for now where she doesn't have armor proper. She wears a simple white button-up undershirt under her chain shirt. Over that this time of year is a nice leather coat lined with fur. She wears a pair of warm trousers beneath a simple skirt in the winter, though if trouble looks near she removes the skirt. Finally she has weatherproofed work boots.
    3) Aeki is trained in athletics. Aeki has spent years training as a Sword, part of that time as a page is ensuring those who take such a duty on their shoulders be able to bear the weight- both mentally and physically. Aeki was lucky to be trained by the Errant Red, an errant of the Swords who helped her reach her physical peak with daily training regimen. Part of their training was to scale buildings while wearing full plate armor, or run a marathon with little notice, thankfully Red was wise enough to ensure Aeki never pushed herself passed her limits.
