<h1>CHOOSE OR CREATE YOUR THEME</h1>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Each Player Character in Fabula Ultima is defined by a primary Theme, a strong
|
||
ideal or emotion driving their actions and choices. If you had to build an
|
||
entire scene around your character, their Theme would be its dominant focus.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If this is your first character, it is strongly suggested that you pick your
|
||
Theme from the list below. Otherwise, you can create something new and unique:
|
||
discuss this choice with the rest of your group and make sure it creates
|
||
interesting situations.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When you choose a Theme, describe how it applies to your character — what is
|
||
their Ambition? What Duty are they bound by? Who will be the target of their
|
||
Vengeance?
|
||
</p>
|
||
<h2>Suggested Themes</h2>
|
||
<ul>
|

|
||
others.

<strong>Belonging</strong>: You are afraid of being alone, forgotten or
|
||
abandoned.

|
||
<strong>Doubt</strong>: You need to find the answer to a burning question.
|
||

|
||
order you received.

|
||
something.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Just like with your Identity, pick something that will prove useful in play,
|
||
and remember that you will be able to change your Theme over the course of the
|
||
game.

|
||
Vengeance could be a fitting Theme for Camilla, but Robert doesn’t want her to
|
||
be consumed by bitterness and a grudge. The young hero's true goal is to
|
||
create a land where her people can live in accordance with their customs and
|
||
traditions, which the Empire has outlawed: therefore, Camilla's Theme will be
|
||
Hope.
