The people in Anchor Rock have modern, ethnically diverse names. As such any normal name is suitable. Please also tell us your character's pronouns. These will be listed on the Characters page alongside your character's name.

The main purpose of quirks in Transference is to aid character building – they won’t have as much of an impact to gameplay as in other society games. Insert how the quirks work. For details, please see quirks.

Please submit a personal bio that consists of your character's personal background and anything else you would like the GMs to be aware of during game. Your character's background and personal arc will be taken into consideration when the GMs handle your character's story. You may wish to refer to the people of Transference page for some details you might like to include. The bio does not need to be long (and please avoid sending us a novel, touched though we will be). This will only be visible to you and to the GMs, so please do use this as an opportunity to tell us all the secrets you hope will be unveiled over the course of the game if you have any. There is no need to have secrets if you don’t want them!

Transference is going to be a game focused on friendship, relationships and will overall have positive vibes, so make sure your character can fit in with these themes. Feel free to give your character a darker backstory if you wish, but know that there are no opportunities to seriously hurt anyone or be overly harmful in game. For example, you can’t be a mass murderer - for Terminus players, this means no Kurson Castles please!

Please also submit a public bio that represents what is publicly known, rumoured, or speculated about your character. This doesn't need to take any particular form (it could be a simple third person description, a conversation between two passersby, an official register form, anything you like really), but should be a couple of paragraphs at most and not exceeding 150 words. This will be visible to all players on the Characters page, and will be posted alongside your character's name and pronouns.

In this part of character creation you can let the GMs know anything important that is not covered by the form, such as if you have accessibility or health related requirements, if there are particular players or themes you'd like to avoid, what you out-of-character want to get out of the game or just to be excited at us. Feel free to put whatever you want in this box, or leave it completely blank.

Here are some sample characters to serve as inspiration! (INSERT)

On Tuesday 16th April at the Larkin Room at St John's College and over discord, there will be a character creation event, where you can ask any questions you have, get inspiration, meet others who are interested in playing Transference and get excited about the game ahead! There is no need to be at this event if you want to submit a character, but most Society Game players enjoy coming to these sessions before character submission.

The preferred method of submission is via the following Google Form:https://forms.gle/x4CMdnnrGrsRBZ1P7 If however, for whatever reason, you would prefer not to use this, we will also accept character submissions by email to INSERT EMAIL The deadline for character submissions is 12pm on Wednesday 17th April.
