In this game you play as one of the Fated in Lorithandar, a world of faerie, trolls, and magic spells. Fated are destined to have an impact on the world, however nature of that impact is up to you. Fated are inherently faster, stronger, and tougher than an average person, along with fantastic powers common folk can only dream of. Fated are drawn to each other, and their power draws other forces as well; helpful, deadly and benign. A Fated will never live an uneventful life. Because of this, your characters begin play with powerful abilities beyond ordinary mortals, and you only become more formidable with time.
