Sanctum works as discussed in the M20 core.
In Character Generation
Sanctum is a standard Background bought with Background dots, Freebies, and Starting XP, at double cost (2 Background Points per dot, 2 Freebies per dot, 6 x current level XP per dot).
When you create a character and pick a Sanctum score, you will be asked to set a note called "sanctum" on your character. In this note, please disclose what your character's sanctum is. You will be able to pick a building out of the equipment listing in order to represent your sanctum regardless of your resources score.
If you already have a build (an apartment, a house, etc.) you will be encouraged to have Sanctum put in that existing space. If you do not have a build (due to, for instance, being Resources 0) then you will be able to have a build allocated to you to represent the Sanctum.
After Character Generation
- Staff Run Scenes: Put in a +request describing your goal! Tell us what your goal is and how your character is going to get started in pulling it off. The storyteller will coordinate with you. Once you achieve your goal, you request staff to update your sheet.
- PRPs: Have someone else run a PRP for you. The PRP runner needs to submit a request to have it approved but once it's approved they may run it. Once your goal is achieved, you and the PRP runner tell staff about it so we can review it, and then we will update your sheet.
When acquiring a stat through role play, you must still pay with XP.
Don't forget about Karma! Whether you are getting something through PRP or Staff run scenes, when you pay 10 Karma you can buy a story beat that puts your character into a favorable position that makes whatever your goal is easier. A storyteller will hook you up with a story beat. Your success is not guaranteed, but you will have the wheels nice and greasy.
