The Archetype in Your Game

An Archetype character can come from any experience, background, culture/social norms, gender, race, or regional issue unless prohibited by Settings or Game Master.

This Character Pathway is commonly found in associated Settings as a Class/Path option. A Setting may implement this with changes that align with the setting's flavor and properties - including the title by which it is known. GMs and Players may customize as needed. Knowledge of this Pathway as it appears in a Setting is covered under the Lore of the setting's World History and/or more specific Lores, if applicable.

Story Emphasis: It is strongly suggested that all Players have a full set of Stories for the important elements of their characters; These can explain any feature that deviates from normal rule/play limits. GMs often reward this.
