FAE character sheets for God Machine Chronicle

Although my NWOD Hack for FAE isn't complete i'm going to be holding the character genning session for my game on this Friday (21/06/13 as of writing), handily because this short campaign doesn't involve the players portraying supernatural creatures I only need the basic rules that have already been decided on in order to run it and can continue to work on the supernatural rules at my leisure (i'm hoping that the FATE toolkit comes out soon since there are some intriguing ideas that have been mentioned that may work well with my hack).

The character sheet is available here in Excel format (i'd recommend downloading the spreadsheet to your machine since it seems to look a bit poor when viewed preview mode.

Below is the initial summary of the game that was made available to the players:

The chronicle takes place in the Specto Vale block of council flats in the east Midlands; built in the late 19th century to help alleviate the housing problems caused by the Second World War and as a potential future model of urban living the shortcuts taken by the construction crews quickly became evident as cracks both material and social began to rise to surface amongst the community, culminating in the late 1960s when five apartments collapsed killing the occupants.

Hastily repaired the tower block was pressed back into service, although most of the more affluent members of society had fled, making it a haven for less desirable members of society, students and people of low income; crime and drug use has steadily risen in the early 2000s and many unemployed were transferred to the cheap, badly maintained Specto Vale block. A fierce sense of community has built up amongst many people in the block, leading to a rise in youth gangs who haunt the underground car park and the now almost deserted open spaces that designers once touted as proof of modernity, leaving some residents huddled in their homes fearful of what stalks the corridors of the block.

Outwardly Specto Vale seems just like any other block, limping along and slowly rotting from within, or does something more sinister lurk behind the decay?
