cases, other players may also veto a Lore Sheet.
• Enjoy collecting Lore Sheets
as physical souvenirs of the The GM or other player may veto a Lore Sheet in the following circumstances:
characters’ adventures • The Lore Sheet describes a relationship that impinges on the relationship
of other PCs without the other player’s consent;
• The Lore Sheet conflicts with the setting or Game World Logic;
• The Lore Sheet description is inconsistent with already established
fictional elements;
• The Lore Sheet describes things that the Table has agreed not to include,
or describes things that will make people at the Table uncomfortable.

Tips for Making Good Lore Sheets

• Resolvable. It is best, but not required, to include some description about

how the Lore Sheet can be completed.
• Exploitable. Lore Sheets can be used to show wealth, useful relationships
with contacts, inside information, and followers. These are all, in essence,
exploitable yet limited “resources.”
• Manageable Scope. You can write the Lore Sheet to be wide or narrow in
scope. You can have more than one Related Character described in the
Lore Sheet, including relationships with both people, places and items.
However, it is best not to make the Lore Sheet abusively overbroad or so
focused that it is unlikely to ever be relevant to the campaign.
• Table Friendly. Check with the GM about Lore Sheets you make to ensure
that the Lore Sheet does not upset pre-established settings and Game
World logic. Interact with other players to ensure that it isn’t in conflict
with other PC backstories and Lore Sheets.
• Style Points. Most Lore Sheets in this book are written in the 1st person.
This is because Lore Sheets, once attached to a character sheet, are
intended to read like journal or diary entries. Related characters and
explicit Resolve conditions should be underlined.
