Creating Goals WIP

Created: April 03, 2025 Updated: June 08, 2025 Article

Overarching aims

  1. Each character should have multiple goals
  2. Goals should have varying time frames
  3. Goals must be achievable
  4. Goals must have consequences for failure
  5. Goals must be fun to pursue

Examples

  • I want to free my hometown from the rule of the orc clans
  • I want to break the curse plaguing my family line
  • I want to replace my fleshy body with one of steel and chrome

Questions to answer

  • What is a mid-term goal this character has? Remember, it doesn't need to be world-shattering, but it needs to be important to them and difficult to accomplish.
  • What are one or two short-term goals that would help the character work toward that mid-term goal?
