Hero’s Journey
Hero’s Journey is a theatrical Chosen One overhaul that gives them bombastic tools to oppose you as you further your schemes. As tragedies hit the Chosen One or the world at large, the Chosen One gains Fate, which they can then spend to break the rules in tropey high fantasy fashion. For example, if you destroy the Chosen One’s hometown in a war, they might be revealed to be the long-lost heir of a neighbouring kingdom they can spread Awareness and fight Shadow in. If you spread a plague across the land, the Chosen One might form a Fellowship of like-minded heroes to drive it back or oppose your agents directly. If you assassinate a ruler the Chosen One is trying to build an Alliance with, the agent responsible might develop a crush on the Chosen One and need to be kept away lest the power of love turn them into a hero. In total, there are 18 Fate sources and 14 Fate payoffs, each of which is brought to life through flavour text and event art.
Customizability
The probability of every event can be modified through the in-game Mod Configuration menu. You can deactivate events you don’t like, change the Fate values on more powerful sources, or tweak the starting Fate and cooldowns to make for a steadier flow of shenanigans less connected to your actions.
Special Thanks
Thank you to Critical Existence Failure, Multimythos, Katrina, Faker, Uravlv and Retrohammer for help brainstorming Fate payoffs and sources.
