  • Dragons: We are currently closed to any new Dragon apps.
  • ONLY ONE BYGONE PC PER PLAYER AT A TIME

Select Concept, Type (e.g. Unicorn), Elemental Affinity, Nature, and Demeanor

  • Elemental Affinity: Air, Earth, Fire, Metal, Water, or Wood. (Further detail optional in a +note, but is appreciated by staff. See page 101 for examples.)
  • Older Bygones: Sufficiently old bygones should have Years background and/or Unaging / Immortal.
    • Years background makes it explicit that you still clearly remember the distant past.
    • Age limit: Even with the Years background, age should not be higher than the thousands. (You cannot be older than Jesus.)
  • Humans: All bygones must have a means of going unnoticed among humans.
    • You do not get a human form for free. You must purchase either the Shapechanger or Human Guise Powers. Your +sheet will be your stats in human form, and any powers that affect your Bygone form, you can get a custom +shift form for it.
  • Chimerical bygones: (See page 98) are allowed and can treat redes as powers.
    • Wyrd Rede: Must take Wyrd rede. Must use Wyrd rede to ICly exist in normalspace (similar to wraiths using Embody).
    • Other redes are at staff discretion.
    • Non-chimerical bygones can't have redes.
  • 20th Anniversary powers: (Gods and Monsters 201-214) may be allowed at staff discretion.
