Health and Dying

Health and Dying

Health

• If you do take a hit, damage is dealt to one of your character's aspects.
  • You choose which aspect.
  • If you mark all the boxes on a track, you can't use it until it's repaired.
• If you take enough damage to exceed a track, you choose one of:
  • Add an injury with a length equal to the exceeded value.
  • Deal burn to that aspect equal to the exceeded value.

Weakness, Resistance, and Immunity

• Weakness: mark 2 extra boxes when taking damage from a source you're weak to.
• Resistance: mark 2 fewer boxes when taking damage from a source you're resistant to.
• Immunity: mark no boxes when taking damage from a source you're immune to.
• Stacking
  • 2 resistances = immunity.
  • Immunity + weakness = resistance.
  • Weakness + resistance cancel out.

Dying

• Character death is narrative, not mechanical.
  • Fundamentally, you choose if/when your character dies, regardless of anything your character sheet says.
• There's enough weirdness in the setting that there's lots of ways death doesn't have to be the end.
