Adventure
Nothing begins before you have your character. This journey takes you through a series of questions and rolling tables to discover just who you are and what kind of character you might be. The system utilizes 4 main character attributes that round out how you will interact with the world inside you and out. These categories are Head, Heart, Hand, and Hope and will be utilized for future adventures that will build off of this character adventure to help you tell a story.
This journey is designed for those who are curious about role play games or those who enjoy guided journeys to bring your character to life. This process uses some common choices as well as some random ones and can be modified to use with any system, however, it was made special for using your own imagination to make up this character to tell your own story.
Features
-
Simple. It is designed to be used with no supplies and is even better with a standard 6 sided die, a 20 sided die, and journal, you're welcome, now you have a reason to buy another journal and more dice
-
Great for new players who don't know anything about role play games as well as seasoned professionals who want to think about it differently.
- It can be added on to any adventure, real life or at the gaming table to discover what character you want to play. What is their story? It can even be turned into a full adventure if you get creative.
- Designed by a certified reiki and munay-ki practitioner so you know there is extra healing energy in it.
- Reusable design, journaling can help uncover many things for you and whatever character you create.

WHAT YOU GET:
A pretty, and a print friendly, 16 page pdf (2 total pdfs) that is printed on standard 8.5 x 11 paper and also leaves you some space for writing on the bottom half. A journal is always recommended. I suggest buying one just for character creation and letting all of your little family live inside it.
