Polly is from the very distant past when the world was "Natural Fantasy" rather than "Techno Fantasy". She was a proud fighter who decided to give up the sword and become a priestess at a well-known temple where she excelled in her studies of Arcana. But when she entered the temple inner sanctuary as part of the final rites of initiation, she saw a blinding flash of light. Suddenly the temple was gone, and she was standing on a weathered stone floor surrounded by a different temple built upon the ruins of her old one. And of course now there was this giant floating island above her. Later, she would learn she was at the temple on Matrado Island where the village chiefs meet yearly. Though there were only a handful of caretakers at the time of year she arrived. They helped her and fed her, but didn't seem too perturbed about her sudden appearance. They mentioned that their grandparents told tales of strangers appearing at the temple every few generations. So now the ex-priestess has taken up her old profession and travels around getting jobs as a bodyguard or soldier-for-hire while she tries to figure out what happened and if she can return to her time--or rather, if she ''should'' return to her own time. | Polly is from the very distant past when the world was "Natural Fantasy" rather than "Techno Fantasy".

Quirk
Quirk: "From a Distant World" in the Techno Fantasy and High Fantasy books:
Your presence here is an anomaly, an unexpected knot in the weave of destiny: the rules of this land sometimes fail to bind you. Do you come from a different planet, or perhaps a different time? How did you get here, and when? Do you think you still have a chance to go back, and would you do so? What terrible threat followed you?
When you participate in a conflict scene, you automatically gain 1 Fabula Point. Additionally, you can invoke a Trait to reroll dice even if you fumbled your Check (if you do so, you do not receive a Fabula Point for the fumble).
Backpack & Notes
Story:
Polly is from the very distant past when the world was "Natural Fantasy" rather than "Techno Fantasy". She was a proud fighter who decided to give up the sword and become a priestess at a well-known temple where she excelled in her studies of Arcana. But when she entered the temple inner sanctuary as part of the final rites of initiation, she saw a blinding flash of light. Suddenly the temple was gone, and she was standing on a weathered stone floor surrounded by a different temple built upon the ruins of her old one. And of course now there was this giant floating island above her. Later, she would learn she was at the temple on Matrado Island where the village chiefs meet yearly. Though there were only a handful of caretakers at the time of year she arrived. They helped her and fed her, but didn't seem too perturbed about her sudden appearance. They mentioned that their grandparents told tales of strangers appearing at the temple every few generations. So now the ex-priestess has taken up her old profession and travels around getting jobs as a bodyguard or soldier-for-hire while she tries to figure out what happened and if she can return to her time--or rather, if she should return to her own time.
