ARTIST e Isolation has a certain charm to it—thanks to you. You keep us going when things look their darkest. People talk to you about your masterpiece. You identify with two of the Aspects. One of them is your muse. SCROUNGER Something’s in short supply here. We rely on you to provide whatever scraps of it we can get. People talk to you about getting what they need. You identify with two of the Aspects. One of our Aspects is causing the scarcity. MEDIATOR Factions in the Isolation are often at each other’s throats. You keep the peace the best you can. People talk to you about resolving conflict. You identify with all of the Aspects—at least on the surface. ZEALOT ere’s a right way for the Isolation to live. You know what way that is. You will convince the others. People talk to you about your followers. You identify with one of the Aspects. You take it much too far. ORACLE You know what’s coming for us—and we believe you. At least, most of us do. People talk to you about predictions. You identify with two of the Aspects. One of our Aspects will be our ruin. HEALER When we hurt, we come to you. You make sure we’re ready to serve the Isolation for another day. People talk to you about their pain. You identify with two of the Aspects. One of our Aspects is the cause of our pain. LEADER A paragon of what it means to be in the Isolation, we come to you when we need decision or action. People talk to you about what to do next. You identify with all of the Aspects. You draw your power from one. PROTECTOR Steadfast and secure, you are the shield that guards the Isolation—either from outside or within. People talk to you about safety. You identify with all but one Aspect. You fear the remaining one. Dialect Printable Cards. Page 1. Archetype Cards 1
