Step 5: Assign Bonds (Players and GM)
Texto
Next, starting from the player’s at the GM’s left and proceeding clockwise, each player chooses two NPCs and a bond from the list on page 136 that those two NPCs share. Record this bond on each character’s card as a rank 1 bond.
Alternately, the player may assign the NPC’s bond to their own PC, or offer the bond to another player’s PC (though that player gets to choose the type of bond between the NPC and their PC, and is under no obligation to accept the offer if they are not interested in the concept).
Repeat this process until each NPC has been assigned at least one bond, and each player who wants their character to have a bond with an NPC has been assigned one. This is also a good time to discuss how these bonds were formed, and to fill in the NPCs’ personal details, which segues nicely into Step 6.
