<span class="mu-s">Let's make some basic decisions about who you are together, shall we?</span>
You are
>A man
>A woman
>Something else
And
>One of the last survivors of the local Freehold, a community of Changelings bound together to protect each other from the True Fae that hunt them. The Freehold was destroyed by one of the Fae just a couple of years after you escaped Arcadia. Only a few of your are left, now. Until the Fae is dealt with, you have no hope of forming a strong community of survivors.
>An agent of the True Fae that destroyed the local Freehold, called a Privateer. He caught you not long after your big escape, and convinced you to stay. In exchange for his patronage and the freedom to travel and live in the mortal world, you do his bidding, which often means catching other runaways, or killing his enemies.
>Not a local, you've just blown into town for a while. After escaping Arcadia, you were recruited into Nightmare Nick's Neverending Big Top, a travelling circus overseen by a mysterious supernatural creature with unknown motived, which has toured uninterrupted for at least 300 years, maybe even longer. There are other supernatural creatures in the crew, and nearly all of you are locked into contracts that are mystically binding in one way or another. It beats the hell out of being owned by the True Fae, but it can be hard. You'll be in Charleston for the indefinite future, and maybe find a way out.
And your job is basically
>Security, maybe even 'wet-work', either to pay my own way as a licensed mercenary, or in service of my master, if I have one. I'm a reliable stick to swing around.
>Administration and planning, I am a consultant figure for mortals and whatever supernatural beings employ my service. I keep track of the variables as best I can to stay ahead of the competition.
>Medical care, tending to the wounds of my comrades or coworkers, or even offering treatment to mortals with cash to spend
>Artist, producing beautiful works that inspire and reveal, the mortals are captivated, and if I am in the employ of a supernatural creature, it is for my creativity and vision.
>Engineering and repairing, making sure all the hardware - and sometimes software - that everything runs on keeps humming along properly. Mortals rely on me as a mechanic or repairman, while supernatural creatures value my ability to operate and tame the gadgetry of mortals that they may not understand.
