A player should list in order the most important groups for their characters. How much it costs to change the plot for a group depends on how important that grouping is to the character and the other players. Naturally the most expensive plots to change will be those that effect the other players. The best way to work out what order the groups should be in for importance is to ask for your character A person from group A and a person from group B have died. Both funerals are on the same day. Which would my character attend?“
Self, lover, immediate family, close family, relatives, social club, sex, religion, race, nationality, best friend, close friends, acquaintances, work mates, fellow team supporters for a sport, locality (ie hometown, apartment building, suburb, city), hobby, planet, ethnic group
Groups should be put in the following categories of importance
The cost to make changes with Plot Points.
Importance of the group | Cost |   | Plot type | Multiplier |   | Affects Player | Multiplier |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Vital | 1 | Long Term Plot | x4 | Directly | x1 | ||
Very | 2 | Short Term Plot | x3 | Indirectly | x2 | ||
Important | 3 | Long Term Subplot | x2 | Not affected | x3 | ||
Not | 4 | Short Term Subplot | x1 | ||||
Not Relevant | 5 |
It should be stressed at this point that while it may seem best to put every conceivable type of group in the category of Vitally Important” to reduce the costs to change plots involving that group - it also means you have to defend every plot change that others make or you will lose plot points.“
