Luz Lozano, a Wizard and a Mess - Finding Comfort in Community with Morgan Nuncio (Urban Shadows 2e)

Characters Without Stories

Morgan Nuncio brings Lucia “Luz” Guadalupe Lozano to the table. Luz is a young Latina wizard learning to control her magic and setting some fires in the process.
Morgan and I discuss finding the comfort in community to play your own race, who's left out when we default to the old white man wizard tropes, and how sometimes you have to make a lot of mistakes on your way to adulthood.
This character is built for Urban Shadows 2e from Magpie Games: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/magpiegames/urban-shadows-second-edition
Morgan Nuncio is a TTRPG writer and content creator. They have written for Kids on Bikes, Teens in Space, and Jiangshi: Blood in the Banquet Hall. They are a professional GM and an active actual play streamer and podcaster, most notably with their Podcast, Powered by the Players.
