Sheeting Support Cast

Non-Personal Character Creation
Support Cast are NPCs that are shared by the entire troupe. They are built the same way as personal characters but always for a purpose. Support cast exist to be resources or challenges for the personal characters. They are never the heroes or villains around which stories evolve. They are the sidekicks, the minions, the mentors, the wards, the messengers and spies who provide support to multiple characters in a variety of ways. When they die, they will be missed by someone. But they tend to be helpers rather than leaders.

Since support cast can be played by all troupe members, allowances need to be made when there are discrepancies in how they act or behave. Flavor > Realism.

Your First Support Cast Character
World Builders should have a few VIP Support Cast sheeted and presented during Session Zero. Before you make your own to be added to your chronicle's Support Cast Roster, check to make sure there isn't an existing character in the roster who could serve the same purpose.
