You are a part of the Governor's special task force to find his missing daughter. He has brought you on because you are exceptionally competent at what you do. You have your own reasons for helping him.
What is Fate
We'll mostly be following the official Fate character creation process.

Also take a look at our Example Characters and their aspects.

Skills
We'll be playing with a slightly modified version of the default skill list.
Lore has been renamed to Academia. It's still the general Know Stuff skill.
Forbidden Lore added. This skill covers That Which Man Is Not Meant To Know. Characters cannot start with points in Forbidden Lore but can earn them through normal character advancement.
Extras
Blah blah supernatural gift / curse
Setting Specific Stuff
Here's a few questions to ask yourself as you build your character:
- How do you hope to benefit by assisting the Governor?
- Have you encountered anything in the past that you suspected was not of this world?
- Are there any dark mysteries in your family's past?
