Questions Requiring Thought & Imagination

Character Pitch

In 3-5 sentences, make a character pitch, without naming an ancestry, class, kit, or any game mechanic. Make sure to include one thing you need from other people.
Note that this doesn't necessarily need to be a character you'll pitch for this campaign, but bonus points if it's one of your three.

Extend the Setting

Select any piece of lore from the campaign web site. Propose an extension to it in a way that makes it more interesting to you. You might consider the "yes, and..." approach to this, or anything else, really.
Bullets and typos are fine. I'm reading the ideas, not the prose. I'm very good at detecting AI writing. Please don't use it.
