Character Archetypes (PWH)

__TOC__
Within the planescape setting, player characters and NPCs might fit any one of a number of archetypes determined by their different personalities, outlooks, and motivations. When creating characters, archetypes can provide ideas for goals and backgrounds. While picking personality types isn't required and they aren't a rigidly structured system like faction membership, some players find them useful in further defining their characters. Nevertheless, not everyone who belongs to a faction need be a faction slave, and not everyone from Sigil fits the archetypal Cager model, either. The following examples provide generalizations about the sorts of people that live in a PLANESCAPE setting. Given the scope of the setting, however, the players and Dungeon Master have limitless options in creating other archetypes.
* Berk Without a Past
* Cager
* Champion of Good
* Chant Broker
* Clueless
* Dimensional Explorer
* Disinterested
* Faction Slave
* Knight of the Post
* Planar Elitist
* Planar Hunter
* Planar Trader
* Prime Blood
* Proxy-In-Training
* Refugee From Darkness
* Spiv
