1. Concept - Skip aspirations, you'll figure these out in session

2. Attributes

i. Prioritize 1st, 2nd, and 3rd between Mental, Social and Physical categories
ii. 1st Category gets 5 dots to distribute
iii. 2nd Category gets 4 dots to distribute
iv. 3rd Category gets 3 dots
v. No attribute can go above 5

3. Skills

i. Prioritize 1st, 2nd, and 3rd between Mental, Social and Physical categories
ii. 1st Category gets 11 dots to distribute between skills of that category(i.e 11 points
among the physical skills)
iii. 2nd Category gets 7 dots to distribute
iv. 3rd Category gets 4 dots to distribute
v. Select 3 skill specialties see pg. 208

4. Add Mage Template
i. Path
ii. Order - Assuming your character has an Order, she receives a free dot in the Order Status Merit, a dot of Occult, and the High Speech Merit.
iii. Nimbus - pg. 89 - don't stress this
iv. Dedicated Magical tool - Create a single dedicated tool as per your path/order
v. Arcana - I recommend the specialist combination of 3, 2, 1 for your skill in your arcana
vi. Rotes - Honestly, just pick 3. If you want to fiddle around with the 6 dots worth of rotes feel free
vii. Gnosis - it starts at 1
iix. Mana - 10 points of mana
ix. Obsession - just pick 1
x. Praxes - just 1
xi. Resistance Attribute - Every Awakened character begins play with one additional dot of
Composure, Resolve, or Stamina, which may not raise the Attribute chosen above five dots
Xii. Please add Vice/Virtue to the sheet and note yours

5. Choose Merits - Every character begins play with ten Merit dots, unless some of
those points were spent on Gnosis

6.Advantages - see pg. 81

FYI

Your Path Arcana should be your highest Arcana, I see a lot of people w/ their 3rd non-path arcana at 3 dots.

I honestly don't care but FYI - you pay mana to cast spells from your non ruling/path arcana so you can have 3 in Life as a Mastigos/Obrimos BUT you pay mana for every Life spell you cast that is not a Praxes/Rote.

Fixed.
