Aside from background information that defines your character’s motivations, you also need to create some secondary players in your character’s story. This is called a “4x4”. A 4x4 lists 4 contacts, 4 allies, 4 enemies, and 4 locations of your character. These contacts are capable people you know who will help you for a price. Your allies are close friends and family members who will help you out of a sense of loyalty – or they could be used as people who will call on you to do the same for them. Your character’s enemies are foes or rivals with whom your character has a history, and who are capable of being problematic opponents again in the future. The four locations are specific places not otherwise detailed in the setting information where your character has experienced something interesting. These could be towns where your character once lived, locations of a known treasure stash, a natural landmark where something significant happened, a village where a contact of yours can be found, etc. | Aside from background information that defines your character’s motivations, you also need to create some secondary players in your character’s story.
