Protege’s mentor: how much space should he take in the game?

Hi guys,

I’m currently running a game with a protege in it. I’m struggling with his mentor. I don’t want him to be like “go here, do that”, nor do I want him to do the heavy lifting. I feel like it could give the players that “we are second grade heroes” feeling.

On the other hand he should be a pretty important character. So we should see him do awesome stuff sometimes.

Also he embodies superior and denies savior. I have trouble with the latter: it sounds to me like “don’t be so heroic kid, saving people is not that important”.

And of course there are other characters to whom he’s not that important. How could I make him present “just enough”?

Hi. There’s something I don’t get with “provoke someone” move.

It says for PC “on 10+ get both”, both being If you do it add to the teampool and if you don’t take a condition.

So they do it and they don’t do it, which is confusing. Can the target player still choose at this point?

Do they get both to add to the teampool and mark a condition?

I’ll appreciate your help.
