Have a quick question. Is it possible for players to have more than one Character? It wouldn't be unusual for my group of 3 players to have 2 characters each. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Yes this is possible - a player can run as many characters as he owns - and there is no limit to how many characters a player can own.

It is. Players can switch with a right-click on the portrait and Activate. The chat works for the currently active character. You can open either character sheet.

Hi Twister and welcome to FG and to the Community.

Yes, players can play as many character's as they are able to handle. They just select them from the PC dialog at the start of the game.

EDIT: Good grief ninja'd twice!

Actually, just clicking on the portrait will select the character in most rulesets. I recommend setting different dice colors for each character, so you can tell at a glance which character is currently active.

Great tip. Different dice colors are key. It also let's you distinguish which character is doing which effects if you use any cones, cubes or circles on the maps.

Head's up, only the character that created the shape can alter the shape. Took us a few moments of frustration to figure that one out.

Again, covered in my Tutorial Video Series - which I've just additionally formatted into BetaMax (just for you Lord-E :p )
