Backstory for causing it.
• Who were you before?
• When did you change? What caused it?
• Who, outside of the team, is helping you understand your new body?
• Why don’t you just try to hide yourself away?
• Why do you care about the team?

Once you’ve finished your backstory, introduce your character to the other players, and then
determine what happened when your team first came together, the relationships between you and
your teammates, and who has Influence over you.

When our team first came together...

Relationships
___________________ comforted you when you were at your lowest.
___________________ knew you before you changed.

Influence
You try not to care what other people think, even if you can’t shut everyone out. Give Influence to
one teammate.
