Title: Primer / cram sheet / handout (looking for)
Post by: elberon on October 01, 2013, 10:00:03 PM
Hi there

I'm looking to see if there is a document that I could hand out to those new to the dresden files that shows what would be reasonable to know if you're:
clued in vanilla mortal
vampire (of different ilks)
changeling
wizard
practitioner
werewolf (of various ilks)

My Google-Fu is weak today so thought I would come to the experts ;-)

"It all depends."
Seriously, the power-level descriptors largely do what you're looking for.
A werewolf probably won't be any less than "feet in the water," and only that naive if remarkably isolated; but they could well be fully Sumerged, or more.  These are intended to measure both power-level and relative amount of knowledge.  I think exact degree of informed-ness is intentionally left to each group, however...

I base it on their background and their Lore skill.  I know that doesn't really answer your question...

But someone who's character background has them interacting with lots of supernatural factions would know a lot of the various creatures/groups; while someone with a high lore would know more details relating to those groups.
