	Each Sovereign character starts with a '''Primary Objective''', the reason for their existence (or at least, it makes survival better), and a '''Domain''', describing their default behaviour. The Storyteller may also suggest Secondary or even Tertiary objectives for the character, which could be anything you agree upon. This adds more restrictions, but also more ways to gain experience points.

	Primary Objectives are akin to organic characters' "Nature," meaning you can't change your Primary Objective ~~just like snap~~. There are events that may force you to change your Primary Objective, such as achieving Understanding 10, merging with another Sovereign or Ghost, or going to Sleep for too long.
