MAGE CURES PLOT
|
Finwalkers
Some are more fish-y, some are more human-y, but Shoal-folk view them as dangerous freaks of some sort. I mean, living in the Salt? The possibly-mythological sea witch known only as Her may be their leader. The NPC called Fisher of Men may be Fin-blooded.
Ok so Fisher of Men looks mostly human and Finblooded is a thing?
It's ON!
ASHERAH ENKIDU - AQUATIC HUNTRESS (battlebabe)
Music to hunt sea monsters to
Far into the deeps, the apocalypse saw fit to grant life to things which can only be described as Monsters, giants, and hybrids, and even weirder stuff. Mean enough to eat entire spires of villages, and large enough to feed that many if only you could find someone crazy enough to hunt them. That's where I come in. Some people call me a legend among finwalkers and one hell of a story among surface dwellers.
I'm no monster, but I am one of the Fin-blooded, I can breathe down there, so I can stay under as long as it takes to hunt, but I still look human enough that so long as my catch is good, surfacers don't ask too many questions. It's not so hard living between two worlds that hate each other when you can be useful to both.

quote: BASIC MOVES
DO SOMETHING UNDER FIRE
When you do something under fire, or dig in to endure fire, roll+cool.
On a 10+, you do it.
On a 7–9, you flinch, hesitate, or stall: the MC can offer you a worse
outcome, a hard bargain, or an ugly choice.
On a miss, be prepared for the worst.
GO AGGRO ON SOMEONE
When you go aggro on someone, make it clear what you want them to do and what you’ll do to them. Roll+hard.
On a 10+, they have to choose:
- Force your hand and suck it up.
- Cave and do what you want.
On a 7–9, they can choose 1 of the above, or 1 of the following:
- Get the hell out of your way.
- Barricade themselves securely in.
- Give you something they think you want, or tell you what you want to hear.
- Back off calmly, hands where you can see.
On a miss, be prepared for the worst.
SUCKER SOMEONE
When you attack someone unsuspecting or helpless, ask the MC if you could miss. If you could, treat it as going aggro, but your victim has no choice to cave and do what you want. If you couldn’t, you simply inflict harm as established.
DO BATTLE
When you’re in battle, you can bring the battle moves into play.
SEDUCE OR MANIPULATE SOMEONE
When you try to seduce, manipulate, bluff, fast-talk, or lie to someone, tell them what you want them to do, give them a reason, and roll+hot.
For NPCs:
On a 10+, they’ll go along with you, unless or until some fact or action betrays the reason you gave them.
On a 7–9, they’ll go along with you, but they need some concrete
assurance, corroboration, or evidence first.
For PCs:
On a 10+, both.
On a 7–9, choose 1:
- If they go along with you, they mark experience.
- If they refuse, erase one of their stat highlights for the remainder of the session.
What they do then is up to them.
On a miss, for either NPCs or PCs, be prepared for the worst.
HELP OR INTERFERE WITH SOMEONE
When you help or interfere with someone who’s making a roll, roll+Hx.
On a 10+, they take +2 (help) or -2 (interfere) to their roll.
On a 7–9, they take +1 (help) or -1 (interfere) to their roll.
On a miss, be prepared for the worst.
READ A SITCH
When you read a charged situation, roll+sharp.
On a hit, you can ask the MC questions. Whenever you act on one of the MC’s answers, take +1.
On a 10+, ask 3.
On a 7–9, ask 1:
- Where’s my best escape route / way in / way past?
- Which enemy is most vulnerable to me?
- Which enemy is the biggest threat?
- What should I be on the lookout for?
- What’s my enemy’s true position?
- Who’s in control here?
On a miss, ask 1 anyway, but be prepared for the worst.
READ A PERSON
When you read a person in a charged interaction, roll+sharp.
On a 10+, hold 3.
On a 7–9, hold 1. While you’re interacting with them, spend your hold to ask their player questions, 1 for 1:
- Is your character telling the truth?
- What’s your character really feeling?
- What does your character intend to do?
- What does your character wish I’d do?
- How could I get your character to —?
On a miss, ask 1 anyway, but be prepared for the worst.
OPEN YOUR BRAIN TO THE WORLD’S PSYCHIC MAELSTROM
When you open your brain to the world’s psychic maelstrom, roll+weird.
On a hit, the MC tells you something new and interesting about the current situation, and might ask you a question or two; answer them.
On a 10+, the MC gives you good detail.
On a 7–9, the MC gives you an impression. If you already know all there is to know, the MC will tell you that.
On a miss, be prepared for the worst.
LIFESTYLE AND GIGS
At the beginning of the session, spend 1- or 2-barter for your lifestyle. If you can’t or won’t, tell the MC and answer her questions. If you need jingle during a session, tell the MC you’d like to work a gig.
SESSION END
At the end of every session, choose a character who knows you better than they used to. If there’s more than one, choose one at your whim. Tell that player to add +1 to their Hx with you on their sheet. If this brings them to Hx+4, they reset to Hx+1 (and therefore mark experience).
If no one knows you better, choose a character who doesn’t know you as well as they thought, or choose any character at your whim. Tell that player to take -1 to their Hx with you on their sheet. If this
brings them to Hx -3, they reset to Hx=0 (and therefore mark experience).
HARM AND HEALING MOVES
When you suffer harm, roll+harm suffered (after armor, if you’re wearing any).
On a 10+, the MC can choose 1:
- You’re out of action: unconscious, trapped, incoherent or panicked.
- It’s worse than it seemed. Take an additional 1-harm.
- Choose 2 from the 7–9 list below.
On a 7–9, the MC can choose 1:
- You lose your footing.
- You lose your grip on whatever you’re holding.
- You lose track of someone or something you’re attending to.
- You miss noticing something important.
On a miss, the MC can nevertheless choose something from the 7–9 list above.
If she does, though, it’s instead of some of the harm you’re suffering, so you take -1harm.
When you inflict harm on another player’s character, the other character gets +1Hx with you (on their sheet) for every segment of harm you inflict. If this brings them to Hx+4, they reset to Hx+1 as usual, and therefore mark experience.
When you heal another player’s character’s harm, you get +1Hx with them (on your sheet) for every segment of harm you heal. If this brings you to Hx+4, you reset to Hx+1 as usual, and therefore mark experience.
BARTER MOVES
When you give 1-barter to someone, but with strings attached, it counts as manipulating them and hitting the roll with a 10+, no leverage or roll required.
When you go into a holding’s bustling market, looking for some particular thing to buy, and it’s not obvious whether you should be able to just go buy one like that, roll+sharp.
On a 10+, yes, you can just go buy it like that.
On a 7–9, the MC chooses 1:
- It costs 1-barter more than you’d expect
- It’s not openly for sale, but you find someone who can lead you to someone selling it.
- It’s not openly for sale, but you find someone who sold it recently, who may be willing to
introduce you to their previous buyer.
- It’s not available for sale, but you nd something similar. Will it do?
On a miss, the MC chooses 1, plus it costs 1-barter more.
When you make known that you want a thing and drop jingle to speed it on its way, roll+barter spent (max roll+3). It has to be a thing you could legitimately get this way.
On a 10+ it comes to you, no strings attached.
On a 7–9 it comes to you, or something pretty close.
On a miss, it comes to you, but with strings very much
attached.
INSIGHT
When you are able to go to someone for insight, ask them what they think your best course is, and the MC will tell you. If you pursue that course, take +1 to any rolls you make in the pursuit. If you pursue that course but don’t accomplish your ends, you mark experience.
quote:BATTLE MOVES

- To fight your way free, roll to seize by force, but instead of choosing to take definite control, you can choose to win free and get away.

If both of you prefer to fight on, it continues, and you must make the move again.
