**AUTHOR'S EDIT, August 2021**

This first dev post was made when the game still was an attempt at hacking John Harper's excellent "Lady Blackbird" . Since the game has evolved away from that format in a significantly different direction, I have decided to pull the original document from the site. The character of Prince Pinion (or Prins Vlerk, in Dutch) **will** be included in upcoming drafts as part of future playtests.

So! First attempt at a pre-made character sheet! The layout is still horrible , and will change overtime, so bear with me. 

The main purpose of this first character post is to figure out which type of characters exist in this setting, while also pinning down actions, abilities and the like. 

From: The Six Swans, by Grimm. See also The Wild Swans, by Andersen.

The last of six princes cursed to live as swans, until their sister managed to break the curse. However, the youngest sibling was the only one carrying a semblance of their previous form: where once was an arm, there now hung a lonely swan wing.  

Not content to live in the shadow of their brethren, this princeling chose to give up their royal title,  and instead ventured out into the Realm to seek purpose and help those in need.

The Realm, however, is filled with peculiar places and devious denizens that may yet ruffle this young one's feathers...
