<h1>GAME RULES</h1>
|
|
|
|
<h2>CREATING A BOND</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Bonds are generally created during resting scenes (page 91), through
|
|
opportunities, or due to specific Skills. Whenever an effect in the game
|
|
allows you to "create a Bond", you may add a new Bond to your character
|
|
sheet and immediately tie a single emotion to it. This means that all Bonds
|
|
start with a strength of 1.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can have Bonds towards characters, nations, kingdoms, organizations, and
|
|
even religions. You cannot have a Bond towards yourself.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>STRENGTHENING A BOND OR CHANGING EMOTIONS</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can make your Bonds grow stronger by adding more emotions to them (up to
|
|
a maximum of three emotions, one per pairing). This is generally done during
|
|
resting scenes (see page 91), which will also allow you to shift emotions
|
|
around and adjust them to the more recent developments in your story.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>ERASING A BOND</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you already have six Bonds and want to create a new one, you must first
|
|
erase one of your existing Bonds. You must explain how your feelings and
|
|
perspective changed.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>BONDS ARE STRONGER THAN DEATH</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Even if a character dies or leaves your story, any Bonds other characters
|
|
had with them will remain until erased.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Bonds make your character stronger while reminding you of their ties with
|
|
the rest of the world and its people.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Guidance on Character Development</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Do not shy away from complex Bonds: feeling both affection and inferiority
|
|
towards someone, or hatred and admiration, can and will make your story more
|
|
memorable.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The best choice is often to let Bonds grow organically, while also reaping
|
|
the benefits that come from having many high-strength Bonds.
