Death singers
Death singers are chosen souls who defy the unknown
outside the safe settlements. Their destiny is death, and they
measure their life in verses. Death singers are gifted with a
master – an entity of light or dark or something in between
who has chosen them as their champion.
The master grants their champions powers and blessings,

and even can save them from dying. This is something many
masters use as a bargaining tool, to make their “puppet” loyal

and faithful. If the death singer’s spirit gets too corrupted,
however, their masters can’t save them and they face True
Death just like all other souls.
Being a death singer puts you in the limelight of all the powers
in Fracture. Souls fear you, True Unlight envy you and the
primordial powers of eternals and worm gods are curious at
the peculiar irregularity in their cosmic force you represent.
Eternal wanderers
Death singers seldom settle down anywhere, instead living
their lives exploring Fracture. They are found in almost all
settlements, traveling, exploring, questing and selling
themselves to the highest bidder as mercenaries.
The death of a death singer

When a death singer reaches their last verse, they some-
times settle down in a quiet place, far away from other souls,
and let their final verse ring out. When they go beyond their
final verse, their master can’t save them anymore, and they
turn into fiends of Fracture, creatures of unlight.

In the presence of True Unlight, the principles of creation start to fade. A swirling mass of
chaos and satanic perversions, entangled in feelings of lust, fear and hate. Emotions and
ideas merge with life and death, while space and time misconstruct into perversions of
UNLIGHT themselves. Light no longer shines, intentions turn into truths and physical laws bend and

Characters gain an expert truth for each skill in which they have a tier of 4 or more. It can be a specialization that
makes the related skill more useful under certain circumstances, or a characteristic the character develops from
embodying the skill to the point that it emerges in some way even when it is not specifically being used. Expert AFFINI T Y REPL ACEMEN T S
