Games Rules
Nature & Demeanor Archetypes


"Each Archetype describes an essential form of personality. Though a character is more than a
simple set of drives, an Archetype provides a basic spring board from which the character's motives
and behaviors can develop. An archetypical Nature shows the underlying elements making up
personality, while archetypical Demeanor is the face the character shows the world around them."
Note: You can have the same Nature & Demeanor.
