• All characters start with our floor XP, which is found on the sheets and is automatically calculated
  • Replacement characters use Death XP (see below)
• We do no require the usual 5/4/3 Attribute spread or the 11/7/5 Skill spread. Instead you have 12 points to spend on attribures and 22 on skill as seen fit
• All characters start with 10 Merit dots
• You may ignore the 3 dot skill max before XP spends rules
• In general, Merits from other character types are not allowed. See each entry for any exceptions to this rule
• You may have a total of 5 characters.
  • We use a character slot system which gives one slot each from Changeling, Hunter, Vampire, and Werewolf.
  • Four of these slots must be filled by a Changeling, a Mortal/Hunter, Werewolf and a Vampire. Half-templates and Minor Templates do not count
  • You do not have to fill each of these slots, but they cannot be exchanged
  • You can use your remaining slots as you wish
  • Eg. John has 5 slots and Makes a Hunter and a Vampire. He doesn't have an idea for Changeling so he leaves that slot empty for now. He can now make Hunters, Vampires, Ghouls, Fae-Touched, Werewolves, Wolfbloods, and Mortals to fill his remaining three slots, but he cannot use his Changeling slot to make any of the aforementioned.

When creating your character, consider these setting-specific questions:

How Did You Get Here?

Changelings end up in Anchorage through several common paths:

• Native. You were taken from Anchorage or the surrounding area. You escaped and came home—to find the Last Hearth waiting. You know the land. The land knows you.
• Called. You heard about the Last Hearth from another Freehold—a place where the Lost fight something real and tangible, where your trauma can be put to use. You came on purpose.
• Exiled. Another Freehold sent you north. Maybe you were too violent, too unstable, or too inconvenient. Anchorage takes everyone. It has to.
• Emerged. You escaped your Keeper and stumbled out of the Thorns into Alaskan Hedge. You didn’t choose Anchorage. The Hedge chose it for you.
• Military. You or your family were stationed at JBER. Your connection to the base shapes how you relate to the Freehold’s militarized culture.

What Is Your Relationship to Service?

Every Changeling in Anchorage serves. Your character’s feelings about this are more interesting than the fact of it. Consider:

• Do you serve willingly, grudgingly, or desperately?
• Do you believe in the mission, or are you just trying to survive?
• Is the Freehold the first place you’ve belonged, or does it feel like another cage?
• What kind of service suits you—the Fireline, ward maintenance, mortal-side support, recruitment?

What Are You Afraid Of?

Not what your Keeper did to you—that’s your Durance. What are you afraid of now? The Scour? Losing yourself? That the fighting will never end? That it will end and you won’t know who you are without it? The Last Hearth is a place where fear is daily currency, and how your character relates to fear will shape their story.

Who Matters to You?

Connections are survival. Build at least one of the following into your backstory:

• A relationship with another Changeling (PC or NPC) in the Freehold.
• A mortal tie—family, friend, lover, employer—that anchors you to Anchorage.
• A reason to care about the Freehold beyond obligation. What would you miss if you left?
