I want them to have an abundant number of Fate Points because the players are new to the Conan RPG. We've been using Fate Points during the sessions where the characters are pre-1st level. And, my method of Testing Fate eats up more FPs than does the vanilla game when a player wants to draw upon Fate to help his character.  I'd rather err on the side of too many Fate Points rather than too few, especially at the lower levels.  Players can earn FPs for their characters through playing Twenty Questions in a number of ways. For every five correct answers a player gives, his character will receive one Fate Point. There are five bonus questions in the mix, and if a player answers a bonus question correctly, his character earns a Fate Point for that one question. And, there is a final bonus question. Once all questions are answered, the player who has answered the most questions gains a bonus Fate Point for his character. All told, there are a possible 11 Fate Points to be awarded in this game: 5 points for the Twenty Questions; 5 bonus questions; 1 final bonus question; and 1 point bonus to the player who answers the most questions.  To begin the game, each player will throw a d20. Higher throw gets the first turn, and we will proceed clockwise around the table from that person. During a player's turn, he rolls a d20. The result shows the number of the question put to him. If he can not answer or answers incorrectly, we move on to the next person, who throws a d20 for another question. If the question has already been answered, then that player is skipped--luck plays a part in this game. Some players may be asked more questions than other players due to the luck of the die.  Questions 1, 6, 10, and 16 are the easiest questions to answer. Questions 5, 10, 15, and 20 are the hardest questions to answer. The other questions are all about the same difficulty.  The bonus questions are the hardest in the game.        TWENTY QUESTIONS -------------------------  1. Describe Drachena physically. 2.
