Events
Events are shaping the world around us, and our characters' lives are intertwined with them. These events could be as innocuous as a ship late to port, or the missing locket of a nobleman. Other events will appear cosmic in scale, marking the end of an age or the world shifting on its axis. Manage events carefully for they will divulge plot lines and secrets.
At the commencement of our first adventure there will be a specific series of events happening in and around our characters' world. As you pick your character's race, class and background take some time to also choose an event. Think about why you want to follow this particular lead, or why your character might be interested in it. Is it a scheme of theirs coming to fruition? Or have they stumbled upon something they shouldn't? Work out the details with your dungeon master.
These events are largely happening in our home city of Marmella. They will be things that have just happened, are currently happening, or are about to happen - and they may be the reason our characters are here in Marmella (or perhaps you're a local? Up to you!).
