Character Sheet
Since this is everyone’s first PF2e game, I will allow you to respec (for a price!) if you don’t like the class/build you’re playing. This is different from retraining which allows you to change your feats, skills, or class features during downtime.
Recommend you to take the following skills:
- Religion
- Occultism
- Willowshore Lore
At least one in the party should be trained in these skills, although there are alternate skills that can be used, so you don’t have to take it if you don’t want to.
We’re starting Level 1. Don’t worry about it.
Backgrounds
Here are custom backgrounds from the AP books that can help you decide why your character was chosen to participate in this year’s Reenactment Festival! You may choose other backgrounds {insert whatever from the Player’s Guide}.
