Reincarnation
06 / Trope
Reincarnation.
A former life inside a new one.
What it means
A character is reborn, typically into a new body or life. If a story sends someone into a fictional world without rebirth, it may be transmigration or isekai instead.
What to look for
Ask which part of the old identity survives and whether the new identity comes with obligations.
Give the new identity its own rules
Carry over a skill or habit and specify what the new body or position makes possible. A body changes movement and survival. A social role gives the player obligations and people who can refuse.
- First playable test
- Use one objective with two different roles. An unfamiliar body can take a route nobody else can reach. An inherited title can get the work started, if the people doing it agree to help.
