>I am not sure Risa being from there was ever mentioned
 
It's like the second thing we learn about her character in thread.
 
 
That said, past warmasters or even specific present characters seems to be NOT a thing I or Twice put into the infodumps about Officios - in a way, the whole idea of worldbuilding is describing the place with as little specific character information as possible. Say a DM wants to use the setting, he writes the Sixth ten years later and replaces every character with his own (which is probably a very reasonable thing to do as well).
 
 
So that would make the information go on Risa's profile, or individual page of the axes (same one? We could make the three stooges into a proper Golden Desert Eagle/Justice page too and link to it from the Golden Weapons one). Or on the Officios page, like Tenth has the "yo Midori comes from here" note on it now.

As for past warmasters and specific characters: in my case, I didn't put in any info on past warmasters because, at the time I was fleshing out the 4th (and when everything I did that decu approved of was canon), I specifically avoided saying much about past warmasters in order to keep 4th Officio history as open as possible for other writers. The lack of specific character info is because I'm lazy about putting up character stuff on the wiki. V:

Well, in my case, it would be way too many to count, so the only thing that I had to keep in mind when describing Karolina (who will literally not even ever get a profile on the wiki ever because not enough important) was that "three months is the shortest historic warmaster service, this is Risa, and that is canon".

Now that the people who aren't important aren't actually canon either, that becomes much easier to work with. (It also makes your characters pass the Plinkett test by default, which is nice).

Officio Assassinorum does have the note under Sixth, so yeah.


...I could have SWORN Risa was the Warmaster of the 6th for a short while before Russ stepped in. Huh.

As for past warmasters and specific characters: in my case, I didn't put in any info on past warmasters because, at the time I was fleshing out the 4th (and when everything I did that decu approved of was canon), I specifically avoided saying much about past warmasters in order to keep 4th Officio history as open as possible for other writers.
