The City of Solestein is the shining capital of the Solentien Empire. This sits on the Kalimov Strait, which connects the Hilsto Sea with the Balramic Sea.  

The Tech of this world can be best described as WWII era. With a Slight bump to Telecommunication due to the use of magic.

The Church manages the magical aspects of things. Witches are required to register due to them being used as tools by patron’s to sometimes do more nefarious things, and Wizards are taught in the nearby campus.

Wizards and Clerics do somewhat dislike Witches since they are somewhat seen as Easy mode versions of both. Clerics must build some form of connection with a god to use magic, and wizards must spend time researching and learning how to use magic. A Witch gains their magical ability and understanding from a patron. Either given directly or taught by a creature of the patron’s choosing.

Paladins are those who choose to fight for the church, usually gaining favor among the gods to use some light magic.

Most Paladins are mockingly referred to as Choir Boys.

Important People

Technology Level

The world of Inus is roughly the same as Earth during World War II. Cars exist but are powered by the strange material called Aether. Cities are mostly powered by power plants, though many are slowly trying to replace the older systems that are in place. Communication can be done on a small scale using personal radios, or through the use of enchanted items referred to as "Talkers".

Something Unaccounted For

None of the above really sit with what you want. Or Maybe you just want to min-max. Either way you are free to create your own Backstory using the following Setup

1: Pick one attribute to be your best attribute, something that your character used a lot as they lived. This stat will have 3 in it.

2: Pick one attribute to be your worst attribute, something your character ignored or didn't focused on as they lived. This stat will have a 1 in it.

3: Pick a skill related to your Best Attribute.

4: Every other attribute is at 2.

For Wounds and Strain. Take a base of 10 for each. You can take points from one to increase the other

So you can decrease your Wound Threshold by 1 to give you 11 Base Strain Threshold , but 9 base Wound Threshold

After that add your Brawn to your Wound Threshold and Willpower to your Strain Threshold.

After picking your background, pick a Race below. This will give you two free talents.

Game Specific Mechanics

Sigils

(THESE RULES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE)

A Sigil is a set of runes that can be triggered to cast a spell. Making a Sigil requires a spell effect and the Trigger for this effect.

Drawing a sigil requires a check,  this is used to determine the power of the sigil and to see if you're successful at drawing it. This does not use any strain during a narrative scene, but uses the standard 2 strain when doing a structure encounter.

Charge

The Number of charges a sigil has is based on your Linked Characteristic or Skill, whichever is higher. Each time the sigil is activated a charge is used. It can be recharged by either the Caster or anyone with a skill that can also cast the spell. Recharging requires re-doing the check for the spell.

Recharging can be done in the middle of a structured scene but upgrades 3 die in the difficulty pool.

Cause and Effect

Every Sigil has a spell effect and trigger. A Trigger is something that causes the spell to trigger

Type	Explanation	Difficulty Mod
Power Word	The user shouts out a specific word to activate the spell.  Using a power word is an incidental action.
Reactive	The spell auto triggers when a specific action is done. EX: The user getting hit, or the user swinging	k
