Fame points for new characters?


Council of Thieves


So if a PC goes down for good and takes thier FP with them, is there any ruling on how to handle Fp for a new PC since Fame seems to be a big deal. Would say, a 6th level character have some fame under their belt?(Say an ex-gladiator who retired.)

I have been running the Fame as a group stat, which is a good thing because I only have one original party member left. Consequently, most of Westcrown thinks of them as "Bertrand & friends".


Ya my ruling has so far been similar to Scribbling. The fame points are directed more towards the "children of westcrown" rather then an individual member. Basically my ruling goes as follows, if the residents of Westcrown do not notice that the Children of Westcrown are not same people. Then how would they feel any different? Key is they wouldn't. Anything aside from a TPK would maintain their Fame Points.

The bonus to this is, since there are other members of the children "the NPCs". It is very hard to have a total wipe of the Children of Westcrown. Thus very hard to lose the fame points. That being said, my party has already lost 1 member to the runecurse word. Who's to say by the end their are no more NPCs? I guess that depends on how the PCs treat and work with the NPCs.
