 ====Passions==== ====Passions====
-The player should create a number of things that the character is passionate about, at least 3, rating these from 1 to 5. The sum of all Passions should add up to 10. For any connection for which the character has a negative net energy the player must take an associated passion that relates to that connection (such that if the connection were lost, the character would not have access to the passion), or an obligation (see Below). The passion or obligation explains why the character has this net negative energy connection, and hasn't just been rid of it at some point in the past. +The player should create a number of things that the character is passionate about, at least 3, rating these from 1 to 5.

The passion or obligation explains why the character has this net negative energy connection, and hasn't just been rid of it at some point in the past. A passion offsetting a negative net energy connection must be rated so that the sum of the two figures is zero or greater. For instance, if a denizen has a connection with a -3 net energy, then the passion must be 3 or higher
  
-====Subservience==== +====Obligations==== 
-Another explanation for a negative net energy connection is that the character is somehow subservient to the connection. Such a relationship provides no upside (other than providing a sink for negative energy in character generation), and is characterized by the fact that getting out of the relationship is a very difficult affair. +Another explanation for a negative net energy connection is that the character is somehow subservient to the connection. Such a relationship provides no upside (other than providing a sink for negative energy in character generation), and is characterized by the fact that getting out of the relationship is a very difficult affair in one of many possible ways. Obligations of this sort are rated equal to the net negative of the connection in question, or lower if the player prefers it to be even more difficult to be rid of the obligation to make the character more challenging
