Advancements
I expect that your list of potential advancements, your decision on whether to take bad stuff or not for each item on the list, and the total amount of bad stuff you'd be willing to take will be part of the initial character sheet you hand in to me.
We will be doing advancements on an irregular schedule, based on the amount of threats faced, and how they are vanquished. I will likely dole out several smaller advanements early on, but stretch the time out between advancements as the game builds.
