With a bestselling novel series as your setting I'd be afraid to try to make anything else the star.

Oh, I wouldn't. We put some real time in the game into making it clear that folks are supposed to take over the setting and make it their own. If you have to run around dodging the events that Harry's undergoing at the same time, it can feel like a straitjacket.
Bosh:
Hmmmm, knowing my group:
-An insane wizard.
-A drunken shaman named Gary.
-Something well-meaning but ineffectual.
-Something serious who tries, with varying success, to keep the rest of the group pointed at something vaguely resembling the correct direction.
iago:
I was looking over an internal playtest report today. This was the group's composition:
- A were-fox trickster
- A former lucha champion
- Knight of Thorns
- Hard-Boiled Vampire Detective
- White Council Summer Liaison
- White Council Warden to Seattle
- A Rhyming Troll of Summer (possibly a changeling, possibly a faerie, hard to say from the sheet right now)
I thought that looked pretty hot.
blackheart:
I'm curious Fred. Is Warden status going to be an official title, skill, or stunt, or just taken as an Aspect?
