Re: The Speakeasy
In reply to Daniel Karasu (msg # 146):
O Tema. Você dá up no Themebook. E aí tem uma série de formas que você tem para ganhar poderes novos, algumas delas comuns a todos os Themebooks, outras específicas. Copiando aqui rapidinho as possibilidades de up do Defining Event, que eu já tinha separado para o jogo de mesa:
Específicas
Touchy Subject
Whenever someone else mentions your defining
event in a way that irks or offends you, you can
choose to go into an emotional state and take an
appropriate tier-2 status of your choice for the rest
of the scene or until you calm down, whichever
comes sooner. When it’s over, the MC will give you
an ongoing tier-1 status to reflect the aftermath of
your behavior.
Take It To The Grave
When other PCs get a Clue on you, or when the MC
asks you a question to which you must reply with
a straight answer or a solid lead, they can’t ask you
about your defining event.
Echoes From The Past
Choose and answer a power tag question from
the Training, Routine, or Defining Relationship
themebooks that reflects something of who you
were before, something that now re-emerges. Write
down the answer as a new power tag on this theme.
Over It
Whenever the MC or another player invokes one of
this theme’s weakness tags, you can say “I’m over
it” and count the tag as a power tag instead. Mark
Crack.
Getting Good at This
You’ve become comfortable with who you are now.
Choose a Core Move that best reflects the way you
use this theme’s tags. Whenever you use it with
tags from this theme, it’s Dynamite!
Comuns a Todos
Choose A New Power Tag
To choose a new power tag, refer back to the
themebook of the theme you are improving and
choose a power tag question to answer. You may
not choose a power tag question you previously
chose if you still have the tag from that question.
Add a weakness tag
Refer back to the themebook
of the theme you are improving and choose
a weakness tag question to answer. You may not
choose a weakness tag question you previously
chose if you still have the tag from that question.
Answer the weakness tag question following the
rules given in character creation (see page 112).
Your answer becomes your new weakness tag.
Write it down on the theme’s card under WEAKNESS
TAGS.
Remove a weakness tag
if you have two or
more weakness tags on the theme you are improving,
you may remove one of them. Erase the
weakness tag from your theme card. When you
choose to remove a weakness tag, choose another
improvement as well.
Rewrite a weakness tag
you may remove a
weakness tag and choose another weakness tag
instead (see “Add a weakness tag”, above). You
may choose any unanswered weakness tag question
in the themebook, including the one you are
rewriting. When you choose to rewrite a weakness
tag, choose another improvement as well.
The appearance of a new weakness tag represents
a new difficulty that is arising in your character’s
life in relation to that specific theme. Conversely,
the removal of a weakness tag can be ascribed to a
difficulty that has been solved, permanently or for
the time being.
Reset Fade Or Crack
Fade (for Mythos themes) and Crack (for Logos
themes) are tracks that represent the deterioration
of a theme. Gaining Fade or Crack means a theme
is in danger of leaving the character’s life (see
Dramatic Moments, page 281). As an improvement,
you can choose to reset the Fade or Crack track
on the theme you are improving.
Resetting Fade or Crack means your character has
taken the time to patch up that aspect of her life,
stabilize it, and return it to its functioning state.
Perhaps she spent some time rekindling her love
with her spouse (Defining Relationship) or a recent
brush with death bolstered her connection with her
ancestral spirits (Divination).
