When a setting has ontological domain traits, characters, objects, places embody aspects of the setting. They are tied to the existence of those concepts. If a character represents a river, when they die, that river drys up. If a character represents rivers in general, they’re more like demigods.
Intersections
The characters in Basilisk are minor characters. They represent minor domains at the intersection of other domains. Each player may roll for or invent three domains that your character, in combination, represents.
