Dagamot the Hermit - Tarot and Tropes with Jordan Peacock (Coyote and Crow)

Characters Without Stories

Jordan Peacock brings his tarot deck to the table. In this episode, Jordan and I collaborate to build three characters using tarot spreads. Dagamot, inspired by the Hermit card, is a reclusive healer with a painful past reevaluating his life on the road.
Content warning: brief mention of suicide at 7:00.
Jordan and I discuss going beyond tropes, building latent potential into characters, and Canadian TV.
This character is built for Coyote and Crow.
Jordan Peacock is an independent game designer, founder of Sortilege, and a near-forever GM. He regularly runs non-D&D games for people new to the hobby, and has an RPG narrative project coming out later this year.
