Story Hoarder
Story Hoarder counts the Stories you collect. It is a Book writing inspiration with a free first level at 1, visible from the start. A Story counts when you pick it up, and buying one from a trader counts as well.
In the demo, Stories come only from quest rewards, one per quest, and the first arrives when you wake up in your new home, which completes the first level straight away. The demo’s quests give 9 in all (see Story), enough for the third level (8). The trader who sells Stories and the Writing Desk that writes them are full-game.

Totals are counted from the start, not per level. Buying a level costs Faith from your backpack and gives talent experience; see Talents and Inspirations.
Notes
- Studying can give a Story if you have the Scientist perk: a 30% chance with each study at the Study Table. That is the one way to go beyond the quest rewards in the demo.
- Unconfirmed: buying counts once per stack you buy, not once per Story.
