It's still early days here, but I'm wondering if anyone is planning to make characters that might not attend the conclave? I'm considering making a second character to be out in the world somewhere away from Haven but I want to talk about potential plots before I commit to anything.

Weird. I can only reply to a thread on mobile if I quote you

I haven’t got any ideas for more characters yet!

My dwarf that you approved is highly unlikely to be at the conclave, so she's open for a variety of jobs elsewhere.

She is open to whatever jobs she can find (while avoiding the Carta), though as a rogue, frontal assaults aren't really her forte. Assassinations, investigations, or infiltrations would be better. I just created a plotter for her if that helps.

I’m still debating whether or not my OC will attend. Probably yes so he can appeal to the lords for knight hood.

So any ideas for plots leading up to the conclave? Or other side plots? I'm planning on my character working as a guard at the conclave.

Are we assuming, as in canon, that the other potential "inquisitors" show up to the conclave and are killed? Because I'm thinking of applying for a second character that could actually participate in the conclave plots. Maybe a lowly mage or guard accompanying Trevelyan. But who survives the explosion because they're so unimportant that they are out drinking when all the fun stuff goes down. Or they got in trouble doing something stupid and were told to go stand in the corner to think about what they'd done, and as such were out of harm's way
