What Drives You Forward?

Here is an exercise to help develop the ways in which your core motivations spur your decisions. Answer the prompts to create motivations for your character.


Fighting For Your Life

You are at death's door. Your breath is shallow and ragged. Your joints ache. Every physical part of you longs to lie down and rest, to give up.

What image appears in your mind that inspires you to keep fighting?


Without a Clue

The trail is cold. Following every clue has led you back to the same place of uncertainty from which you started. You feel dread creeping over you as you consider the possibility of reexamining everything that brought you to this point.

What physical object do you instinctively reach for in this moment? What comfort or inspiration does it bring?


Lost Your Way

In the pursuit of righting wrongs, the line between good and evil has become blurred. You have done things you could never have imagined doing before, but you are not sure if they crossed a line.

What words guide you toward your moral center? Who said them and why?


Facing the Unknown

You are faced with a locked chest deep within a dungeon. On your journey down, you have faced many clever traps which suggest valuable rewards.

What treasure that could be hidden inside makes you want to open the chest?


Social Unrest

You and your party are facing a serious problem and cannot agree on a solution. You feel that your solution is the most sound, but the others refuse to consider it in favor of other ideas. The temptation to go your own way is strong.

What moment from your past makes you try again to persuade the others?
