Shadowed with beauty
Eyes of fire and ambition
In my path step not
My destiny is mine alone
For none to touch
Nor manipulate, foul hands
Shiver, fear comes
Grows as their souls shrivel
Death is quick
Yet just
I will be forever
Time will not touch this
Body and soul eternal
Bow before me, even
If you know me not
I am the ultimate power
Feel my wrath

"Leave it to humanz to need explanationz in matters of sex. We are imposed upon the flesh and take the pleasures of yourz and organz with delightfuliness. Are we the manifestation of a feminine or masculine emotional 'Sundering' created by the darkness of your minds? Yes, that and more. I am in my rage, full of 'she-ness' and in my perversion, complete in 'both a gender'. I am in my vengeance 'him' among you, for that dualitiness is where the strength residez!

Daedic: There is no need to panic, Margot. Our diplomats are working as we speak. Farma, what is the current situation on Hom?

Farma: The Outcasts are suffering a major food shortage due to the blockage and increased position of the Joanites in both Bazaar, and at the Fallen Bridge. There is definite evidence that the three prisoners to be exiled, on the coming new moon, are going to have to find another place to stay. All according to Cylix, I’m certain.

Very little was done with Tribe 8 2nd Edition to fit the "historical" Vimary setting in with some of the newer material  - particularly character creation options such as Backgrounds. The Vimary described at the beginning of Tribe 8 1st Edition is a much different place than the Capal of Tribe 8 Second Edition. In particular, only three of the Backgrounds provided in the Second Edition rulebook can be used in a "historical" game: Keeper, Serf and Squat. Of course, those Backgrounds are the least likely to be used for PCs in a Vimary-based game.

While Backgrounds are not difficult to create, I've put a few together for an upcoming game and am going to post them here. One thing I've done is include skills to round out the packages; just like the Perks and Flaws in the Background packages, skill points in Backgrounds do not count towards point totals.

Chigger: "Huh? Why?"

Cinder: "Because they're fuckin' annoying."
