h ANIMAL WHISPERER h

The name’s Gideon King.

I am an aging Black man, and have made my life as an Animal Whisperer.

I am of a tall stature, with a stocky build. I dress modestly, have intense hazel eyes,
long natural hair and a missing hand.

My aspirational belief is Honesty, but my critical flaw is Apprehension.

Some say they can read others like a book, while others
proclaim they read nature. I, however, read animals. Scoff if
you must, but I know how to speak with them, and animals
know how to speak with me.

We share a bond, a means, that is intuitive. I am able to

tell you when they are frightened, when they suffer – and
more importantly – what they feel. And, before you ask:
no, I was not raised by wolves. I run with all beasts, even
human ones.

I run with the bison. I hunt with the fox. I climb with
the squirrel in the forest green’s leafy boughs. I respect
them as equals, but I do not think for a moment that our
understanding lets me control them. Nor can they control
the change evident in the air.

As I make my way through this wilderness, I learn from

the rabbit something is wrong. My friend the pigeon tells
me she has seen a shadow grow. Worse still, the salmon
whispers of a rot here. I talk with my brother turtle and
sister snake, and both warn me. Their message is always the
same: darkness is here.

TRAIT: WAY OF THE BEAST

Effect: Creatures classified as Animals will never make
you a target of attacks, until you initiate violence towards
them or their allies.

TRAIT: SHADOWS BE GONE

Effect: You treat Total Darkness as if it is Perfect Light,
able to see in the dark.

h BRAUCHER h

My name is Mercedes Duran̄ .

I am an adult Spanish woman, and have made my life as a Braucher.

I am of a slight stature, with a stocky build. I dress modestly, have dark, soulful eyes,
long wavy hair and purple birthmarks.

My aspirational belief is Spirituality, but my critical flaw is Recklessness.

I am fervently religious and hold deep beliefs, far deeper

than even my local preacher. Some claim to channel the
power of God and work miracles in His name, but I have
truly learned these mysteries. The Bible is only a fraction
of God’s word – the Romanus-Buchlein, Egyptian Secrets
of Albertus Magnus and the Sixth and Seventh Books of
Moses have opened the divine path to me!

I know God’s true whims and meaning, and because of

this, He has chosen to grant me the boon of performing
miracles. Ministers have long tried to hide the truth, but
have failed in their endeavors to hide it from me.

Many see me as deluded or even evil, saying my claimancy

of this power is asinine at best and heretical at worst. Yet, I
know the truth. The word of God – which is codified and
written by the Prophet of Moses – gives one who is willing
to read and learn the means of communing with God.

I do not lie when I say I have spoken with God, and my

powers are proof. But perhaps worse, God has warned me
of a great coming calamity, second only to Judgement Day.

TRAIT: FIND THE HIDDEN WORD

Effect: Whenever you bear a symbol of faith in-hand, add
+1 to your Damage & Peril Thresholds. In addition, you
gain access to two Magick Spells, and may cast them at
will with a successful Incantation Test.

TRAIT: SECOND SIGHT

Effect: With a successful Scrutinize Test, you can detect
the presence of supernatural phenomena nearby. If you
Critically Succeed this Skill Test, you can accurately track
where the phenomena is found (as if you were tracking
someone using Survival).

h DILETTANTE h

I’m Beauregard Pearson, but my friends call me ‘Beau’.

I am a mature English man, and have made my life as a Dilettante.

I am of a slight stature, with a lean build. I dress fashionably, have fiery dark eyes,
short straight hair and a leering sneer.

My aspirational belief is Honor, but my critical flaw is Cowardice.

Nothing ever seems good enough or interesting enough,

and as soon as something novel piques my interest, my
attention is then like gossamer, floating along the breeze.
It is not that I lack drive or a sense of commitment – it is
just that I really do not care.

I have money – or at least an inheritance coming to me –

which ensures my needs are met. In order to fill my time, I
must do something fun, and this often means seeking new
experiences. Sadly, even these new dalliances can hardly
hold my attention for long.

My idylls have brought me many things – namely

knowledge, connections and experiences that come in
handy from time to time. The downside of these experiences
is that I have come into contact with some unsavory sorts,
as well as seen things I rather wish I did not.

I have seen many unspeakable events and some

unspeakable things no one should see. Though many
fear of a brewing violent confrontation here in the ‘New
World’, I fear a greater darkness engulfing all.

TRAIT: A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING

Effect: Whenever you gain the benefits of an Assist Die,
you gain two instead.

TRAIT: ENFANT TERRIBLE

Effect: Whenever someone fails an Intelligence-based
Skill Test, you can interject and have them re-roll using
your Base Chance without spending Coins. However, they
suffer 1D10+1 mental Peril.

h FREEBOOTER h

They call me ‘Red Bonny’.

I am an adult Multicultural two-spirit person, and have made my life as a Freebooter.

I am of a tall stature, with a lean build. I dress fashionably, have grass green eyes,
medium natural hair and a cheshire grin.

My aspirational belief is Friendship, but my critical flaw is Vengeful.

The Intolerable Acts? Please, when it comes to smuggling

they may as well be called the Tolerable Acts! Ports are
closed and taxes are through the roof, but that just means
more business for me.

I’ve spent enough years running blockades, hiding

contraband, and greasing the palms of dock workers to
know this will pass – but while it’s here, why not take
advantage? No job is too big or too small for me as long
as the price is right. After all, the wheels of commerce still
have to turn, even if we are at war.

There will be war too, make no mistake– but I couldn’t

care less. Rebels and Loyalists need contraband goods no
matter what flag they live under, so whoever wins won’t
affect my margins in the least. War brings more profits
and opportunities to my business, so the longer the conflict
lasts, the better, I say.

I’m not a mercenary or a warmonger – I’m just an honest

business owner trying to make a few sterlings in a less than
conventional way. I’m certain there will come a time when
I have to make a decision as to where my allegiances rest.

TRAIT: WITHIN MY REACH

Effect: Whenever you fail a Guile or Intimidate Test, you
may re-roll to generate a better result, but must accept the
outcome. In addition, you always succeed at Skill Tests to
resell illegal trappings.

TRAIT: TAKE A MULLIGAN

Effect: Whenever you spend a Coin to re-roll a Skill Test
and fail, re-roll a final time (but you must accept the results
of this final roll).

h MAGISTRATE h

My full name is Archibald Jamison Hale.

I am an aging Colonial man, and have made my life as a Magistrate.

I am of a slight stature, with a stocky build. I dress modestly, have shrewd hazel eyes,
cropped curly hair and a balding pate.

My aspirational belief is Authority, but my critical flaw is Formality.

A Lawyer uses the word of law to advocate for the guilty

and innocent, but I am the true impartial arbiter of the
law. It is my duty to know the law inside and out and have
the prudence to apply it fairly. My task is not an easy or
popular one, due to the simple fact that the law must have
no prejudice or bias.

I spent years in school and as a lawyer myself to represent

the government and its laws as fairly as possible, and the
summation of my learning is this: justice is simply a matter
of true or false – nothing more, and nothing less.

It is hard not to notice the growing tensions and how

they are boiling over into those eager to break the law.
Society is ruled by laws, and society creates the very means
to judge those who refuse to obey these laws. I do not care
about tax increases or royal blockades – the law created
them, and so they must be upheld.

Those who break the law break the contract we all make
to our society. It doesn’t matter which side of the conflict
is right. Whether they be Rebels or the Loyalists, they all
break the law and in my eyes, are all equally guilty.

TRAIT: JUDGEMENT IS HERE

Effect: Whenever you or an ally succeeds at a Skill Test,
spend a Coin to turn it into a Critical Success.

TRAIT: EBB & FLOW

h MIDWIFE h

I am Nanye’hi, daughter of Fivekiller.

I am a young Cherokee woman, and have made my life as a Midwife.

I am of a slight stature, with a normal build. I dress shabbily, have mournful brown eyes,
very long braided hair and a freckled face.

My aspirational belief is Truth, but my critical flaw is Sarcasm.

Life is precious. It should be cherished, and above all,

protected. With each newborn child that I usher into this
world, I welcome another wondrous soul to our community.

It is I who knows how to ease the pain and ensure life,

not death, comes from birth. It is I, and I alone, who brings
comfort to parents and children. I am the doctor when
your life is at risk, the nursemaid to your baby and the
gentle comfort when the worst happens. It is my sacred
duty.

I have ushered many new lives into this world, which

brings me great joy. More than anything, it fills me
with a purpose far greater than most understand. This
understanding tells me something is spiritually amiss in
our world, far greater than the war.

I feel this wrongness deep within my bones. I hear it

in the cries of dying infants and see it in the unearthly
hollowness in parents’ eyes. Infants die and stillbirths grow
even more common. Shadows and darkness lurk within the
sacred moments of birth. There are eyes in those shadows,
watching and waiting to snuff away these precious gifts of
life. I am fearful of what is to come.

TRAIT: EASE THE PAIN

Effect: Whenever you successfully Bind Wounds to heal
Damage, your patient moves one additional step up the
Damage Condition Track positively and an equal number
of steps up the Peril Condition Track.

TRAIT: FIELD DRESSING

Effect: It takes you less than one minute (1 Action Point
in combat) to Bind Wounds. In addition, you reduce the
use of other First Aid-related actions by -1 Action Point
(to a minimum of 1 Action Point).

h OFFICER h

A pleasure to meet you, I am Veronica Roche.

I am an adult French woman, and have made my life as an Officer.

I am of an average stature, with a stocky build. I dress modestly, have unblinking blue eyes,
near-shaved wavy hair and a persistent cough.

My aspirational belief is Courage, but my critical flaw is Callousness.

The time is fast approaching that the simmering tensions

will boil over into conflict. It’s during times like these that
someone must step forward and take on the mantle of
leader, and that person is myself. I’ve learned the skills of
leadership through many years of combat and schooling,
and I shall ride at the vanguard of those charging into
battle.

My skills and scars are souvenirs from countless conflicts

before. It was then, with musket balls flying past my head,
that I learned to lead and value my companions’ lives more
than my own.

I didn’t become an officer for the money – most of my

funds go towards maintaining my militia, but my true
reward is making my unit into a lean fighting machine. I’ve
learned by studying the great masters of war, and I have
grown into an efficient and effective leader who doesn’t
shy from battle.

My brand of leadership is exactly what is needed now,

especially if the rumors of dark things are true. No matter
which side I choose, they’ll welcome my bravery forthright.

TRAIT: BATTLE BUDDY

Effect: Select one ally whenever combat starts. You both
gain a +10% Base Chance to Defend and cannot be
Flanked, providing you are able to clearly see and hear one
another.

TRAIT: BATTLE HYMN

Effect: Whenever you suffer an Injury, immediately
move one step up the Damage & Peril Condition Tracks
positively.
