All heroes come from somewhere: this is their Origin. It might be a humble village, a great city, or even something more fantastical such as a palace in the depths of the ocean, the Moon’s surface, or an entirely different solar system.
You may pick a location that is already present on the map sheet or create a new one. Just like your Identity and Theme, your Origin may be invoked to reroll one or both dice during a Check. However, you will normally be unable to change your Origin in play — unless you suddenly discover you come from an entirely different place and your memories are fake, which is a fantasy trope as well.
Robert came up with the concept for Platea while creating Camilla; because of this, Platea must be added to the map sheet. Robert chooses an area in the South and describes Platea as a once-peaceful and bright citadel atop a cliff overseeing a vast lake. Right now, the city has been seized by the Empire.
In Fabula Ultima, your character's species and heritage has no mechanical impact unless you want it to — perhaps their Identity is that of a Fallen Elven Prince, or some of their Class Skills can be explained as a consequence of their unique anatomy or bloodline.
