Welcome to The Seventh Sun - Ancestry, The Ruination

Ancestry is the alpha release of the TSS game engine JAM. Your role at this point is to help us test the foundation of our game so that we can begin building the more complex systems such as skills and experience, wounds and healing, combat and magic. We have added some things to keep you occupied and help you have some fun while you test. Please see the Ancestry Overview for more information.

Will you take the challenge of The Ruination?

Tips for Role Playing in Ancestry - The Ruination:

Sketch together a background of what or who your character was prior to The Day of Ruin. REMEMBER: There were no warriors, mages or classes really of any kind. There were common folk, trade people and Clerics.
Determine where your character was and what they were doing when the ruination struck.
Determine what your character has been doing to survive.
Consider forming a Family with friends or other players.
Remember that there is no magic in the world yet!
Determine if you will be an Ancestor of your future Live Character or if you will be no relation at all. (Ancestry runs under the premise you will be playing the Ancestors of your eventual live character and passing the things you earn down to them.)
Will you make a new character or play the same one as Alpha/Beta moves through the History, which will span thousands of years.
Will you be a Fanatic, a citizen of Dawnville or a loner?
