How do you like TTRPG games to be kicked off? What rules and games do you like that bring the players and their characters to a shared aim?
The Sailor's Ambition is the central tie of characters in Gilded Sails, a statement the entire table makes together that binds them all.

What are some of the ways TTRPGs you have seen give players concrete options to create backstory / bonds / ties / story archetypes?
Gilded Sails is built on the Hearts & Spirits system, with players choosing two Hearts that pull each other apart and Spirits in contradiction.
