The Purposeful Journey is a unique concept I created myself to add an additional layer of personality and flavor to your character's background, as well as providing a foundation for future gameplay sessions and story hooks. Your Purposeful Journey is a special quest or task that your character must complete in order to save, help, honor, or otherwise benefit someone that your character deeply cares about and has a personal connection to. It is not something simple or easy, and is expected to take the full length of the campaign to complete. Try to come up with something interesting, unique, and deeply personal that would motivate your character to go on an epic journey for a specific purpose in the service of someone else.
I came up with this idea after watching a YouTube video called Shonen Anime's Biggest Problem, by Reality Punch Studios. Watching this video will give you a better understanding of your Purposeful Journey and what the intention behind it is supposed to be.
EDIT: I have chosen to change the name of this feature to "Personal Quest," which I feel is a more intuitive and straightforward label.
