Players Guide 2

You were driven to change the world around you, to fight for your beliefs and values. 

You might have worked to bring others to your cause with persuasive words and stirring imagery, or you might have looked for opportunities to create change from the shadows with targeted strikes on the status quo. You might have been known for your beliefs and desires, your name becoming synonymous with your cause. You might have been a small part of a larger movement, or you might have taken individual action without caring who followed in your footsteps. Whether you were part of a successful revolution or failed to achieve the change you sought, you put your principles first and were willing to act in defense of your beliefs, regardless of the consequences.
