New to the game, but is there a list of alternative archetypes that people might direct me to? I see Dark Streets and one or two archetypes up on Drivethru, but wanted to know if there’s like a compiled list of the most solidly built. I’m trying to replace the Vamp and Wolf, is my goal. Thanks, all.

I’ve been doing a bit of reading up on Urban Shadows for a possible near-future game, and there was something I was wondering if I could get some clarifications on.

For the Tainted, a couple of things on their list of ‘cash in a Debt’ options are to have your patron “answer a question (honestly) about their Faction” or “introduce you to a powerful member of their Faction,” same as you could with any NPC.

What is the patron’s Faction? Is there an assumed default (one would assume Wild) or is that in cases where — as a random, off-the-cuff example — the dark patron is secretly running a network of vampires and operating among Night? Or is there something I’ve misunderstood about the move?

I’m in a predicament. I need the dark streets playbook sheets, but i can’t find them anywhere.

The sheets are like the ones you can get at the website, but for the dark streets archetypes.

Anybody have ’em stowed away someplace for me to borrow?

Some Oracle questions for the weekend:

1. How to make an Oracle character relevant?

My other players seems to be politely ignoring and not really engaging Oracle. Why? Hard to say, we are learning how to properly implement Foretellings to be interesting and add to the story or maybe they are afraid they will have to owe Oracle.

So what can I do to make Oracle relevant, if talk to my players then tell them what?

“You have this amazing friend of yours who can see future and might tell you who will try to kill/trick/betray you tomorrow, why don’t you take advantage of that?”

2. How to make and play with and use Foretellings visions so that they add an interesting twist to the game?

So far we had two uses of Foretellings. In one Oracle has seen where a Revenant is about to kill a friendly NPC so that players could have went there and take action however Oracle herself had to go to another place to resolve another situation.

Second use was more complicated, as players have used debts and collected a whole Hallowed gang to go wage war on a demon, Oracle predicted that the demon will explode and kill everyone, she went there and tried to defuse a situation but other players ware already ready to wage war so in some regards such vision was counter productive because they’ve already used resources and made moves to set the stage for war.

3. Why does Oracle have to engage in intimacy move to be able to have a vision about NPC or PC that is not bad?

Both Foretellings and All Seeing visions are kind of on the spot and about bad stuff happening.

Vessel, their Instincts and Debts.

I recently started a game and one of the PCs is a cool flesh golem Vessel.

We discussed that all PCs know his instincts and some powerful NPCs might know at least one of his instincts.

I wonder if person using Vessel instincts should owe Vessel a debt in few cases:

1. If Vessel does what he is told without questioning it?

2. If Vessel resists and fails?

I’d like to avoid situation where player feel ripped off from having a debt for doing stuff, but he is a construct made to serve.

IMO Vessel can demand a debt for doing something for someone after a successful resist.

How do you handle 7-9 on Vessel resistance to follow instincts?

So far I had one such situation and I gave Vessel a choice to flee the scene or stay and cave in.

Which MC moves do you think fit nicely here to this situation?
