PROPHECY ‘You determine a prophecy with your Dungeon Master. This is ‘2 moment for you and your DM to talk about what you want to happen in the campaign as equals. These events might not happen exactly as you planned them, but in creating this prophecy, you and your DM agree that there are certain story ‘moments that you want to happen in the campaign. Write down three aspirations or goals you have for your character, and which you want to achieve over the course of the campaign. A prophecy goal should have two parts. First is the goal that your character wants to attain, Second is a ‘sense of what complication might ensue once the goal is met —for good oF for ill One of your prophecy goals should be an immediate goal ‘one should be long term, and one should be a goal that concludes your character arc at the end of the campaign. You don't have to decide on all three goals atthe start. You can choose your immediate goal now and think about the other ‘two while you get a feel for the tone of the campaign, ‘These prophecy goals can help your character stay ‘motivated, but they'll also help your Dungeon Master create interesting stories that relate directly to your character. Your three prophecy goals can help the DM shape the campaign by determining what challenges or rewards to put in your character's way. (Ifyou rolled for a mysterious secret in the last section, that secret is a great thing to link to a goal) Alternatively, you and your DM can work together to create goals that help link your character goals to an existing story the DM wants to telh Each time you complete a prophecy goal your character gains a mechanical benefit as a reward. Ifyou looking for prophecy goals for your character, you ‘ean roll on the Prophecy Inspirations table for a random goal and a consequence of that goal If this goal isnt a perfect fit for your character, you can fine-tune it yourself, or roll again to find one that works better.
