Class backgrounds

Classes, like any other great hero story, have a set up

Note: these are pretty rough outlines

Actives
Lord- have an aspect based disability, making them an outsider to the thing they desperately need and want, forcing them to manage their aspect objectively inside of them then outside of them

Witch- an aspect nurturing environment, guided by a sort of aspect mentor figure

Prince- grew up around too much, as a reaction they killed the aspect inside of them

Thief- had very little aspect, making them extremely envious because their problems would be seemingly solved if they just had more aspect

Knights- grow up in a anxiety inducing environent, focung them to use their aspect in hyper drive as a reflex

Maid- surrounded by a very healthy aspect level, but it is insidious and starts turning against them until it is their enemy and thing they will replace

Mage- their aspect is systematic and under control, slowly growing out of control. Their experience with it allows them to tackle the chaos and mess, slowly but surely changing the tides of it

Passives
Seer- their aspect is solace and a safe haven against their opposite aspect. It is the tool allowing them to take control of their current situation, so they almost obsess over it

Sylph- stuck to their aspect because it’s all they were really really naturally and genuinely good at, but they can only cultivate themself so much (hence the nosey meddling)

Page- their aspect is their safe space and happy place, usually resulting in a childish dependence and fondness for it, but they learn to understand it’s true importance, not just the good times it brings them

Rogue- their aspect allows them to cope with reality. While useful, they overindulge and need to shrug that off by opening their aspect up so they don’t feel like the only one

Bard- grew up with a powerful internal aspect, but it was silenced. They see suppression of their aspect as a way to control, or at least not have to actually deal with it

Heir- aspect handles it’s self so they don’t have to. It’s second nature, so they really aren’t aware of their affect on surrounding aspect

Muse- brilliantly manage aspect around them, but have an aspect deprivation internally, so they control surrounding aspect to ‘fix’ it. Learn to figure out their internal is more powerful than external managing

—
Mind you, this is a super skeletal outline and each has waaay more depth and some flexibility. Not to mention excatlly how each operates, what they learn, and how they get there.

(Plus Lord and Muse are really freaking hard to simply reduce)
