Mike, I did the numbers and you're right, it's 130, BUT you put in the TBD Hubris which would make it 120. Just wanted to make sure we're on the same page. Looking forward to hearing about the Fate Witch that snuck into a Courtesan school

I have had almost no 7th Sea characters with a Virtue, ever, and really wanted to try for likely my last one. "True Identity" has lots of possibilities. I'm thinking that a mother/aunt/relative might have brought her to Canguine as a child and she is, therefore, a native speaker of Avalon. We have a while to talk about it.

So, Mark, from Elaine's: In addition, just to let you know, the way we do Backgrounds is I am going to write 4 adventures for each point you have in your background. You'll get an additional XP for each PA if you play the background (which means you invested the equivalent of 3XP and you'll get 4 back). So having a background of 3 means 12 adventures to get to the end.
Now like I tell everyone who has a background, "I have no problem writing 12 adventures for you." BUT the campaign is only 12 years long, and if you are only coming to GenCon that means you just committed yourself to dealing with that background for the entire campaign (Because I would hate to see you not get to see how it all works out).
If you're not sure, you can always take a 1pt Background and I can have it lead into something else IF you find you're interested... (Because you can always spend XP to add other backgrounds)
So, can I purchase a one HP point background at the start, use it for 4 adventures, then purchase another one point for XP, then another for XP, for the total of the 12 PAs?

*Eyes the first statement, then pointedly looks from the first to the second (both of which are in the same quote by the way) and then back to the first...* Yes, yes you can.

So, let's say that I choose the background "Orphaned". That may increase in importance from the first year to year 12.
At the start, there may be hints of real history, plus speculation and conflicting rumors and talk. As the years progress, My FW Character discovers some new truths, that some heretofore truths are now lies, the tension mounts and her Sorte, along with the usual skills, becomes a bigger and bigger assist as she goes from Apprentice to Journeyman to Master.
Maybe she is not an Orphan at all. There are lots of shady characters en route. Cousins may have stolen her, uncles kidnapped her, Vodacce lords may be involved, Avalon or Vesten pirates might be, etc.
What do you say Mark? Background 1 the start to 4 at year 12? Or just an even keel of 1, 2, 3, or 4?
FYI: I am planning on Vodacce S only (0 HP) and Avalon S/R/W (3 HP) at the moment.

Sorry I didn't respond to this Mike, Yea it sounds like fun! Lets do this thing! Only thing I'd say (and I always say this) is when you write the background, do it first person, don't tell me what the truth is, tell me only what the truth is as your character understands it (and by extension what you believe it to be). That way you'll (hopefully) be surprised when the truth is revealed.
