I finally decided upon how to integrate characters into their Novarium. Each character must form an attachment to another character run by another player at the end of their creation process. This bond then connects to the Willpower mechanic and can give or take away the will of the character based on events that occur for the attached character. For example, if your friend is placed in a dangerous situation, you can regenerate willpower points more quickly because you want to save them.
I still need to do some technical work like make sure my artists are credited right, internal hyperlinks, and of course a lot of copy editing for typos and grammar, but the Character Creation book is otherwise done, coming in at exactly 30 easy pages to hand to a new player. This means that character design is now essentially fixed, no more amorphous connections necessary in the other books. Refinement can proceed along new avenues.
Step one complete. Now we keep moving forward. Progress feels good.
Hit me up with an e-mail if you want to take a look, but I cannot publicly release yet.
Cheers!
