Wildcards

Wildcards are a special resource that grants players additional narrative control to alter to an unfavorable circumstance.

Wildcards are a point-based resource players earn and spend to create memorable moments within the narrative. They add an element of unpredictability and provide players with an additional resource to manage during gameplay.

Earning Points

A player starts every session with a minimum of 3 wildcards. If the player has accumulated additional wildcards from a previous session, they retain their current amount. Additional wildcards can be earned in the following ways.

  • ACTIONS: Players automatically earn a wildcard when the outcome of actions is a complete success or a complete failure.

  • INSPIRATION: The host can award a player a wildcard when they demonstrate outstanding role-play or contribute a particularly memorable moment to the narrative.

  • REWARDS: Wildcards can be granted as in-game rewards by the host when groups achieve narrative milestones or players accomplish individual goals.

Spending Points

A player can spend their wildcards to alter unfavorable circumstances when performing actions.

  • REROLL: Reroll from 1 to 3 dice when performing an action roll. The player must accept the result of any dice that are rerolled.

  • CREATE ASSET: Create a common asset rated at D4. The asset is a permanent addition to your character and can be further improved by spending experience points during downtime.

  • INVOKE FEATURE: Invoke a feature ignoring the trigger.

  • TREAT CONDITIONS: Treat the condition of an ally or self by reducing its value by 1 point.
