This page is an experiment, contemplating how the characters of the Dissolution campaign could be converted to the 13th Age system. It makes use of the information in the Ptolus 13th Age Conversion. As 13th level Pathfinder characters, all of the characters will be converted into 6th level 13th Age characters, with two incremental advances to 7th level (the +1 to three attributes and the ability to wield an additional magic item). Characters are listed below with the easiest to convert first.

Lostwhite

As a typical two-handed fighter, Lostwhite converts fairly easily. One thing that jumps out immediately is that her One Unique Thing and backgrounds instantly give her more depth.

Female Half-orc Fighter 6
One Unique Thing: Only person to ever defeat Kesh Wol, legendary master of a ritualized martial discipline (and her mentor), accidentally killing him.
Backgrounds: Student of Kesh Wol +5, Fashion Sense +2, Devotee of the Lady +1
Icon Relationships: The Spire +2, The Lion-Guarded Throne ±1, The Entropy Sphere −1
