Attributes & Skills

Callings (& Knacks)

• Judge 1
  • Eye for an Eye: When you suffer an Injury, spend Momentum and inflict the same Injury on the target that attacked you. The target must have attacked you directly; you cannot reflect attacks that targeted someone else. If the target does not have the ability to take a similar Injury (having your arm bitten by a giant snake, for example), inflict an Injury of similar severity instead, such as a festering, envenomed bite mark. This also applies to Critical Hits inflicted.
• Warrior 3
  • The Biggest Threat: When you make a show of force or intimidate your enemy, make a Knack Skill roll. On a success, the target must focus its efforts on dealing with you first, suffering +2 Difficulty to attack anyone else.
  • Enhanced Impact: Whenever you successfully deal Injury with your Knack Skill, you also knock the target back one range band. This does not do any extra damage, but can put someone in a tight spot.
  • :"Perfect Defense" Once per Fight, declare that an attack made against you by an enemy of the same Tier or lower does not affect you in any way. To do this a second time, spend Momentum. This may not be used more than twice a fight!
• Oni 2
  • Innate Cruelty: Any weapon you use, including unarmed attacks, gains the Lethal tag. Spend Momentum to give your weapon attacks the Aggravated tag for one scene.
  • ''Punish the Wicked" If you inflict an Injury Condition on another being, spend Momentum to add a second Injury Condition of the same or lesser level. The Condition resolves at the end of the scene.

Purviews (& Boons)

• Yaoyorozu-no-Kamigami: communion and propiation of the ten thousand kami in all things
  • Innate Power: You can speak with the kami of objects and animals, allowing you to communicate and attempt to influence them (p. XX). They have Attitude 2 towards you by default. The kami of objects have a limited degree of agency, primarily taking unrolled actions to do things the object might have done anyway. Sweet talking the kami of a car could convince it to start without keys, but not to drive around by itself.
• Epic Stamina: unsurpassed vitality, endurance, and resilience...
  • Innate Power: You are immune to poison and disease unless they come from a source whose Legend is equal or greater than yours, and never face Complications or risk death from hunger, thirst, or exhaustion.

  • World of Glass (imbue 1 legend, one scene): You are capable of tearing down walls, ripping up concrete, or rendering brick structures to powder in moments. Once per scene, you may make a Feat of Scale (p. XX) to enhance any Might-based action without having to pay a point of Legend.
• Frost: winter, snow/blizzards, and more symbolic associations with the cold as well...
  • Innate Power: You never suffer harm from extreme cold, nor difficult terrain or Complications due to snow, hail, or ice. You may walk over water or even clouds, as it turns to solid ice underfoot long enough to support you.
  • Flash Freeze (spend 1 legend, all enemies in one range band): You can drain away the heat of the world, icing over landscapes and freezing enemies from the inside out. Roll this as an attack using (highest Power Attribute) + Occult. It has the Bashing, Piercing, Ranged, and Shockwave tags. All water in the targeted range band is also instantly frozen solid.

• Death: Divine Power over death and what comes after
  • Innate Power: You can see and communicate with ghosts, shades, and other forms of the undead that are normally imperceptible or incomprehensible. (Plot hooks ahoy!). In addition, you can perveive entryways to the Underworld!c
  • "Unquiet Dead:" You can cause a corpse to speak, or summon a person's ghost at their grave for one scene. It starts at attitude 3 and has all of the memories it had in life except for five minutes leading up to it's death! As long as you imbue legend into this boon the undeads answers provide Enhancement 3 on any applicable rolls, such as tracking down the person who killed them. It can only use it on the same undead once per session!

Motifs: The kami are all things, and can be bidden to work wonders.
