Character & Combat Guide

Origins & Armor Overview

Choose character context separately from combat planning, then read physical and magic armor as two distinct defensive problems.

Origin Character Lens

Starting Context

Compare the background and personal goal presented during character selection without assuming a preferred story route.

Party Perspective

Consider whether you want that character as the player lead or as another perspective within the party.

Visible Story Links

Track personal-story references only when they appear in dialogue, the journal, or the current scene.

Armor Reading

Physical Armor

Group physical pressure and related effects together when choosing a target.

Magic Armor

Evaluate magic pressure separately so elemental and magical actions address the intended defense.

Shared Focus

Coordinate party actions around one defensive problem instead of scattering incompatible pressure.
