MASKS…UNBOUND…WOW!

I tinkered with this today for a bit, I’m not in a place where I think it’s perfect but I think it’s a good start.

I tinkered with this today for a bit, I’m not in a place where I think it’s perfect but I think it’s a good start. I call it Firebrand and devised it for The Delinquent as a mechanic to make them less beholden to the more narratively dominating Playbooks like The Doomed or The Protege whose mechanics sort of make their issues front and center.

Firestarter

Rebel Tokens ❑ ❑ ❑ ❑ ❑

You’re not just some good for nothing, raging against the machine with sound and fury signifying nothing. You have a reason for shutting people out, for fighting your fight and for harboring the wounds you harbor. Pick one Obstacle.

A powerful, established hero or organization whose methods you find disagreeable.

A personal issue you can’t simply overcome with time.

Familial or outside obligations and expectations.

Any time you work against these Obstacles, by either thwarting or rejecting authority or opening up about your own problems to friends, gain one Rebel Token. A Player may have up to five Rebel Tokens at once and they roll over between Sessions. If a Player gains any Rebel Tokens beyond five, they must Mark a Condition instead. Rebel Tokens may be used to buy various effects as listed

Clear a Condition when successfully Rejecting someone’s Influence (1 Token)

Shift Labels, GM’s Choice (1 Token)

Take +1 forward to impede, agitate or thwart a target. This target must have Influence over you (1 Token)

Clear an additional Condition when Comforting or Supporting a teammate, the teammate must have Influence over you (2 Tokens)

Take +1 forward to impede, agitate or thwart a target. The target need not have Influence over you (2 Tokens)

Take something from an opponent as if you’d successfully rolled a Directly Engage (2 Tokens)

Gain either a vehicle, communicators, false identities, badges of authority, or simple robots from the Mentor’s Resources for a scene (3 Tokens)

Gain an Audience from The Star but take a singular Advantage instead of two. You may maintain this Audience for a session but must make a roll + superior to maintain it when time passes (5 Tokens)

It’s simple. It’s hacky but there’s something beautiful in there.

I can feel it.
