* Paths in Depth: The Outcast
* Development background for the path.
* Originally the “Outcast Warrior” racial Discipline for trolls.
* Very tied into highland troll concepts of honor as presented in the original Denizens of Earthdawn.
* Path leans into the idea of an individual sacrificing something in the name of honor and gaining magical power in return.
* Unlike other paths, no greater organization or structure. Intensely personal.
* Review of three aspects of troll honor.
* Comparison to Asimov’s Laws of Robotics.
* Ka’tosh – a category of honor Outcasts hold that is considered higher than the other aspects.
* Starting as an Outcast versus having it develop during a campaign.
* Doesn’t necessarily warp the narrative the way some paths do.
* Very heavy on the story and role-play.
* Discussion of the essay and opposing points of view.
* Pop culture references.
* Josh disputes Dan’s focus on redemption rather than sacrifice.
* Becoming an Outcast.
* Discipline affinities.
* Passions and Questors.
* Possibility of becoming eligible for the Path before Circle 5.
* Ordeals and Advancement.
* Outcast Half-Magic.
* Path bonuses.
* Path talents; new talent: Rite of Khopesh.
* Honor points.
* Outcast Path Knacks.
