*The sun hammers the mud-brick walls of Babylon. Dust devils twist in the heat haze around the towering ziggurat as the city thrums below—a hive of merchants, priests, and laborers. A scribe waits, stylus in hand, for the details of your life to be given, that your fate may be inscribed upon a tablet of clay.* *Tell me:* *• Your name • Your gender • Your appearance • Your profession • Your home • Your history.* *You may leave the name blank, and one will be chosen for you.* *Declare your station: among the ruling family, the priesthood, the courtiers, the middle class, the lower class, or the slaves.*
