Question about the start of game, does one player start as the Fae, or do they become the Fae after the first scene. How does character creation work with the former, and how do the players get tempted in the first scene if the latter?
Hey there! No players begin as fae. In the first scene of the game, the decision which character stays behind is an elective one made by the players rather than the dice. The temptation and question rules only kick in starting round 2.
If the group is having trouble deciding which character defects, you can have players do a single roll at the end, with the lowest rolling player narrating why and how their character never enters Faewater.
