PCs may also be brought together by a patron for a specific task, but then the players need to justify sticking together after that mission.An alternative approach is group PC creation and setting up a relationship map between the PCs pre-game  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wES5ufXETdE&t=0s" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wES5ufXETdE&t=0s</a> - I think this works best for games with a high focus on interpersonal drama.</blockquote>
