Design Journal 01/29/24

 

Opportunist is an Archetype I find to both embrace the skills a character has and go beyond. The offer a Player the familiar but yet become a little extraordinary in their own right.
 
Performer – Heroes who find the concept of adventuring a platform to showcase their artistry.
 
Scoundrel – Heroes who intend to benefit from their journeys, cleverly working through desperate situations.
 
Specialist – Heroes who latch onto a specialty, honing their skills to become the best.
 
As strange as it sounds, for the most unlikely Calling, I marginally gave the Player the authority to change the game, leniency to bend the rules in certain situations. The mechanic will make for some interesting stories or lead to terrible deaths. But hey… isn’t that the game?
