Character Guides
|
CHARACTER GUIDES All new characters must be approved by a character guide (CG) before being played at an event or on the forums. Character guides help provide new characters with proper guidance to fit into the world of Shadow Accord. They often ask a number of questions intended to help players gain a clearer picture of who their character is and what they believe. Character concepts should be discussed with the CGs before game if possible. |
Faction
|
Shadow Accord consists of four basic types of creatures from which players can create a character. Each group has a significant effect on the basic attributes that your character possesses and how they will interact with the world. Information about the individual factions is found in their respective sections. You must choose a faction from the following: Human, Vampire, Shifter, or Wraith. |
Sub-Faction
|
Within each faction you must choose one or more sub-factions. These indicate what, if any, supernatural powers you have and what their source is. This choice will have a significant effect on your role within your faction. Sub-factions are available according to the following chart:
Humans may choose a single merit at no cost. To become a Fomori, Ghoul, Kinfolk, Gifted Kinfolk, or Sorcerer you must purchase the appropriate merit. |
Restrictions
|
Some sub-factions have restrictions that must be followed. Check the relevant faction section to see the restrictions on a particular sub-faction. Some sub-factions may also have an experience cost that must be paid in order to create a character in that sub-faction. The experience cost is determined by the tier of the restricted sub-faction. You may not pay this cost with freebies.
