How To Play Fate
The first step in playing fate is bringing together a group of people. I posted the link to the interest check on the chat after having a lot of people talk about a music battle school, so that's just barely scratching the surface of what we can do.
@SouffleGirl123@Vesuvius00@LeolycanYou three havn't played FATE Core to my knowledge so here's what we have to do as a group.
We are going to create our characters together and figure out what we want out of the setting as well as each others.
FIRST we need the High Concept of our characters. A High Concept is a one or two sentence statement that can sum up the character. Generally you can write one by answering this question, "what kind of character do I want to play?"
Example: "I wanna play an ace student who kills with a Triangle, literally." That's a high concept that anyone can take.
Now after a High Concept is the trouble. This is the flaw of a character.
Answer this, "What's wrong with this character?"
Keep in mind that a trouble isn't something they just solve with an hour of their time. A Trouble causes trouble which means that it can lead to drama. If your character has an issue with someone from their past, a trait of their personality that no one can stand, an addiction, etc. A trouble doesn't need to be crippling such as disability or inability to use an important skill.
Example: "No Rhythm." which in this rp could mean death.. depending on the school curriculum or could mean a setback in passing with high grades.
What the High Concept and Trouble are called is character Aspects. An Aspect is a short phrase describing something of a person, place, or thing. Once both HC and Trouble are written we can get to the next part.
Any questions?
