Roles on the Table

Home Defiant is best played with a group of 4 to 7 players where one of the player will act as The Fates (The Game Master) while the rest will be playing as The Defiant (The Players). The difference of the roles are as follows:

The Fates

The Fates is the one (or more) player that controls the rest of the world. Their job is craft situations that The Defiants will be in and describe how the world reacts to the Defiants' actions. In addition, The Fates also need to act as the mediator at the table, and the goal should be to make sure everyone at the table have the most fun (that includes The Fates themselves).

The Defiants

Defiants are players that controls a single character. Defiants will craft the character's past, build the characters statistics and decide on the characters' actions during the game. The characters that The Defiants control will be the main character of whatever stories they will be playing in. The Defiant's responsibility is to describe what their characters would do while trying to achieve their own goals and promote fun for everyone on the table.
