Rest In Pieces

Courage [Character 7.01]

Your story

You are Courage. You picked your name out of a love for novelty and discovery. It's vital that people dare to try new things, and consider doing (or at least saying) the unthinkable. You often get into arguments with Wisdom about this (big surprise). You can be aggressive and like to win.

You used to have a problem with gloating. Harmony cut you down to size on that. It was pretty hard at first ‐ you're not the best at taking criticism ‐ but they didn't put up with your BS and you had to concede that they were right. Without them you might have gotten voted out of the clan early on. That would have sucked.

The Seekers include:

• Courage: you. People depend on you to keep discussions from covering the same damn ground every time.

• Honor: Kind of stuffy. Principles are important, sure, but you have to challenge them. Promises only last so long!

• Wisdom: Yes, okay, we have to learn from the lessons of the past, blah, blah, but we can't let the past define us! There is an infinite amount of knowledge and understanding that we haven't found or thought about. A reliable opponent in most arguments.

• Piety: You love that they're willing to believe in things that you can't sense. You have a tendency to defend them even when you don't quite understand what they mean.

• Love: Really sweet, wonderful in bed, kind, and sort of shallow. Not everything has to be nice. Some of the best things are nasty.

• Harmony: Like an older sibling to you. Never let you get away with crap, but never called you out in front of others, unless you really needed it. They taught you how to be you without being a jerk. Without them, you wouldn't be here. Even now, you depend on them to rein you in.

Some ideas for memory scenes:

• An encounter with Harmony, perhaps when they "shot you down."
• When you tried something new and daring with another family member or two, and it failed ‐ but you learned something.
