Character Creation

Please state if you went Specialist, Balanced, or Generalist for your Arcana.
- Mages start with Gnosis at 2 for free. At creation you may spend xp or merit points to raise it no higher than 3.
All Characters start with 20 experience point to spend; as the game advances, the total will update with the current auto exp. You may spend the xp listed on the sheet as normal.
