About the game
Hey Destinies fans! Ready to level up your characters? The 'Character Traits' module is here to inject an extra dose of personality and strategy into any scenario you play. Forget the ordinary: now, before embarking on your journey, each player will choose one of three randomly drawn Character Trait cards. Just imagine, there are 30 unique cards, each with a range of abilities and powers that will change how you approach challenges. Some of these traits might give you an advantage in one area, but with a slight drawback in another, creating very interesting choices. Others have a limited number of uses, requiring you to think carefully about when to activate that special power, or they reward specific types of actions you perform. And the icing on the cake? Many of these Traits allow you to accumulate Destiny Tokens, which are like a wildcard to turn the tide in tricky situations. But it doesn't stop there: some Traits can even 'Awaken' with clever use, unlocking even more powerful abilities as the story unfolds. It's the perfect chance to customize your experience and dive even deeper into the epic narratives of Destinies!
