Coimbra
When do the starting character cards' movement and immediate bonuses take effect during setup?
The rulebook gives the starting card effects only after the start conditions are chosen.

Only after every player has drafted a starting pair and placed a pilgrim. Each player then gains the influence value and any immediate bonuses of both starting cards, so choosing the starting pair first does not lose its movement.
