For this episode, Devon returns to talk with me about characterization. That is, coming up with your character’s backstory, their appearance and their outlooks and personality. We discuss quite a few places where you can draw inspiration besides just the Genesys core book, including:

• • Fate Core Character Idea and Phase Trio
  • 20 Questions from Legend of the 5 Rings (you can download the 5th edition beta here)
  • Cypher System
  • 13th Age‘s one unique thing
  • GameMaster’s Apprentice Base Deck (also with fantasy, age of sail, sci-fi, and steampunk variants)
  • Sins & Virtues Cards (link to the Shark Bone Podcast site with download link)
  •  TVTropes.Org (specifically the personal appearance tropes)
