Character Creation

Every great hero was once but a rumour...

A Hero Discovered

Your Handler is the character you will discover and travel Develesja with. Unlike with Lokaji, their reference image is always custom-drawn, albeit using the provided frame.

Handlers must adhere to the rules set out below. Their appearance, abilities, and background may be affected by a number of tokens from the Fated Favours store.

Sivá Hora

Handler Rules

Your Handler must always be submitted alongside a Lokaj.
Your Handler always starts at Level 1.
By default, Handlers start out with commoners' clothes, 500 Groschen, a neutral reputation with all factions, and Kamenitsa as their residence.
1. If a Fated Favours token is applied to your character, it may alter the above listed starting attributes.
Your Handler must adhere to the in-game lore in terms of appearance, naming, and history.

A Companion For Life

A Lokaj is the essential companion to your Handler. Not only is it impossible to submit a Handler without a Lokaj, the Lokaj you choose for your Handler has the potential to shape their future interactions within the in-game world.

The Lokaji

Lokaji Rules

The number of Lokaji your Handler can have is limited by their type. The limitations are as follows:
1. A singular Handler can only own one bulwark Lokaj, and no other.
2. A singular Handler can only own two herald Lokaji, and no other.
Your Handler starts out with only one Lokaj slot, and unlocks more as they level up.
Only officially obtained Lokaji can be submitted as characters. You must have a link to where the Lokaj was created or transferred to you in order to register them as a character.
A Lokaj consists of a living form and a weapon form. Both must be fully designed for the Lokaj to be accepted.
The Lokaj's reference image must be created using the official template PSDs.
1. The PSDs contain a full template for your Lokaj's living form.
2. Your Lokaj's weapon form should be drawn in the designated spot within the template PSD.
The Lokaj's design must adhere to the options set out in its cast, and must display all of them (i.e. the design must, for example, contain the heraldic beast carving somewhere visible).
The Lokaj's weapon form design must be reasonable. This means:
1. No comically oversized weapons.
2. Somewhat period-accurate designs (e.g. no modern-era bows).
3. Bows, as an exception, are allowed to fold, meaning the limbs can fold backwards to form a U-shape.

Ready for a new story?

Read through the rules above? Great! You may now select whether you wish to submit a new Handler, or add a Lokaj to an existing Handler with an unlocked slot.

Choosing either option will take you to the respective form. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the official Discord server!
