I'm starting to get ready to GM a game and I'm trying to wrap my head around obligations during character creation.
I've read the book and many, many forum posts and it still seems nebulous to me.
Let's say that my gaming group has 2 people in it. According the book the starting obligation per player is 20.
A player can, of course, add more obligation in exchange for experience points and starting credits.
Here is where I get a bit confused. The text for purchasing experience and credits reads as such:
There are two limitations : each player can only choose each option once, and Player Characters cannot gain more additional Obligation than their starting value.
If I'm reading this correctly, a player can choose all four additional obligations once, meaning that a player character could end up with 40 obligation.
Can a character have all 40 points in one obligation or do they have to choose different ones when it reaches 20 points (their starting point value)? In other words, if you choose to 40 obligation, do you have to choose 2 different obligations?
Additionally, if a player has 40 obligation does that mean that for the d100 roll 1-40 would be one character?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
