I’m working on a set of playbooks, currently for my Patreon, that I’m calling the Doomed Trinity – each playbook has a countdown clock that’s ticking away to their ultimate, unavoidable doom, but they get to make their mark on Apocalypse World while they can. All three have been inspired by actual play instances in the games I’ve been a part of, so much so I’ve always thought “These could be playbooks”, so, that’s what I’m doing.

The one I’m currently focused on is The Infected, basically some kind of plague carrier. Since it’s a carrier, I’m deciding on ways for it to spread the disease/infection.

Why don’t people just shoot the Infected on sight? Well maybe they chose:

Death Blossom

If your life becomes untenable due to the direct actions of another character, and you choose to die, give an infected move to any player characters involved and fill in a segment on their infection countdown. The MC will determine what happens to any NPCs involved and it won’t be pleasant.

And for the sickophiles:

The Infected Special

If you and another character have sex, erase one segment from your infection countdown and give them an infected move; they also mark experience.

Is this too terrible?

Hey guys!

Has anyone tried the trick with the stats I’m talking about below? The traddiness of it wigs me out a bit.

Rethinking the Half-Breed

Right now, the Half-Breed playbook is a social monster. The moves are:

* I have lots of friends

* I’m a human noble

* I run a resistance

* I’ve been everywhere

Is there a reason that a half-troll or half-orc should be such a social dominator? You could make the argument that people who live (or between) in two cultures are going to hone their social skills, but that seems essentialist and in many cases wrong.

Right now I’m leaning toward two changes:

Stats

Instead of add one to:

Serene-1 Brutish=0 Resplendent+2 Canny+1 Effulgent=0

I’m thinking add 7 to:

Serene-1 Brutish-1 Resplendent-1 Canny-1 Effulgent-1

Moves

Rework the moves entirely and give one good one for each of the (non-Effulgent) stats.

I think BitD’s position(controlled-risky-desperate) is a nice mechanic for determining the difficulty of the fictional positioning.

Has anyone tried to adapt this mechanic into PbtA? For example, I think it can be easily fused into the power proflie in Worlds in Peril(simple-difficult-borderline).
