I’ve posted these before individually, but I’m looking for more feedback on some moves. They’re all for a teenage witch themed hack, inspired by The Secret Circle. All the characters are witches and the Skins focus more on high school archetypes; the loner, the rebel, the popular kid, etc.
Everyone has access to this move:
Weave Magic
When you weave magic into a mundane action, you perform extremely well or achieve more than you would normally. (If you would roll for a move, roll 1d6+1d8 instead of rolling 2d6.) Then choose one:
– it took more out of you than expected, gain the Condition drained;
– your actions attract immediate and unwanted attention;
– the Powers take a String on you.
These move are for The Loner Skin:
Disinterested
Whenever you stand by and just watch rather than get involved in something that should, or does concern you, everyone who is involved loses a String on you.
Dispassionate
Whenever you act with obvious emotion, whomever caused the reaction, and any observers, take a String on you.
This move is for The Outsider Skin:
Perfect Words
When you lock eyes with someone to know what they’re feeling, roll with Dark. On a 10 up, hold 3 and on a 7-9, you both hold 1. During the scene, you can spend your hold one-for one to ask the following questions, player to player:
– What is your character thinking right now?
– What can I say to make your character feel better?
– What can I say to hurt your character?
Players must answer honestly, and take +1 forward while acting on the answers.
This move is for The Reckless Skin (not satisfied with that name):
Sexy Dangerous
When you impress someone with an act of destruction, violence, or bravado, chose one of the options below, then roll to turn them on with Volatile.
– you accidentally injure someone nearby;
– you cause more collateral damage than intended;
– you suffer 1 harm;
– you gain the condition reckless.
These moves are for The Passionate Skin (again, probably change the name of this one):
Up For the Challenge
When you turn someone on who everyone knows is in a relationship, on a 10 up, take a String on their partner as well. On a 7-9, add this option to the list: they give you a String on their partner.
Honeyed Words
When you converse with someone in an attempt to dig up dirt on them, roll with Hot. On a 7+, they tell you something about themselves they wish they hadn’t. On a 10 up, give them the Condition secretly under [your name]’s thumb.
Again, feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. 🙂
