“It would be a terrible shame if John’s PC went up in flames, wouldn’t it? Such a waste of quality hardware. Of course, if such a tragedy were to happen, I would be only too happy to accommodate his clientele with my own momentous game update while he got back on his feet. And the unlimnable legions of Dark Web Ritualists would warrant some measure of my gratitude as well.”

That’s right. On the 8th day of the 8th month of the 16th year of the 3rd millenium I unleash my Hack for public consumption. Let me know what you think. It’s a little incomplete, but I needed to harness the unique numerologies of this day in particular.

Can you take action to stop the effects of an Entanglement? Say for Show of Force? I believe so, but others disagree.

I’m gonna be showing off my Alpha playtest group’s “Season 2” at 6:30 Eastern Time. If I get done setting up faster than FOREVER, we’ll just go live and chat about whatever until 6:30.

Will our crew’s first level of Torment cause great and terrible manifestations? What Devil’s Bargains will you give us? Tempt us into darkness ye who dwell in chat!

Weird Ideas for a weird hack:

I was redesigning the playbooks, and now I have a gaping hole on the middle left. I think I’m going to fill it with a Bonds/Strings/Hx style way that your last 2 action dots can be assigned such as (if you’re a Medium for example), “Ask everyone, “Which character thinks my spiritual powers are just new age bullshit?” then ask them, “Under all my lies, what do you think I’m actually good at? Assign me an action dot based on it.”

I might be including an alternate Trauma option (for the insane player) which is to cross off one of your attributes; becoming formless, mindless, or soulless. You probably resist the consequences for that attribute for free, but lose access to your actions. After you cross off your third attribute, you have annihilated yourself. (foreseeably, since I know my own brain, you may be able to switch to some entirely fucked up non-playbook I design which is some Void-entity, an eternal nothing that IS, that has some meta-abilities or is like an additional crew sheet that is operated by a player that instructs you to draw dark sigils on the crew sheet which with repeated observation will manifest real-world effects (this is already a feature of the game ina different capacity.) I don’t know. I CAN’T KNOW. IT’S THE VOID FOR HECK’S SAKE)

BUT WHAT IF NYRYX IS JUST PRETENDING TO BE A GHOST?

BUT WHAT IF NYRYX IS JUST PRETENDING TO BE A GHOST?

BUT WHAT IF NYRYX IS JUST PRETENDING TO BE A GHOST? Like, “Mmm I’m totally possessed oOoOO!” When she really has a high tolerance for weird clients? Like… Nyryx, that’s not even how Ghosts talk honey child. That is the name of a Witch house music producer, We all know that true ghosts say, “OOOOO….”, “Ooo O! O!”, or “OOoOooOO”

What do we think would be an useful way to use Lifestyle Rolls vs Spending Coin?

What do we think would be an useful way to use Lifestyle Rolls vs Spending Coin?

What do we think would be an useful way to use Lifestyle Rolls vs Spending Coin? Right now, I’m leaning on an idea that Coin specifically comes out of payoff, claims, etc. and plugs back into the rules in the book like your Downtime actions, creating your Stash, advancing in Tier, Entanglements, and Devil’s Bargains, and Lifestyle Rolls are meant to cover everything else?

Also how would you narrate a bad or mixed outcome on a lifestyle roll. “You don’t have the money” just seems like a boring thing to say on a 1-3, maybe it’s better to talk about how they lost that Coin on their Vices. What the heck do you say on a Mixed Outcome? 😛

Household Renovators, mark this day as a day of myriad dooms.

Household Renovators, mark this day as a day of myriad dooms. For the first time ever, someone has rolled that most horrid of result levels: The Critical of Great and Terrible Power.

For just a fleeting moment, the veil lifted before swiftly lowering again. Three separate (but interdependent) identities, three atomic souls linked by birth and love, all shredded to ribbons.

And so the Alpha playtests continue…

I keep holding back on my players and then nothing happens.
