- If the leader has no darkness marked, add 1.
[...]
- If the leader has three or more darkness marked, subtract 1.


Out of curiosity, how exactly darkness affect someone's ability to successfully navigate the wilderness?

OH SHI-

I had just finished that custom move and I was going to reveal it when ya'll entered the rainforest xD

Oh well, I might as well address it now. So as you noticed, the darkness track is tied to your emotions (Anger, Fear, Shame, Doubt). If you had more than three marked, than you're in a very... negative headspace, I guess? Which means you're not thinking clearly when you're trying to navigate an area. If you have no darkness mark, I imagine your mind is fairly clear and less plagued by negative thoughts.

So I've learnt a valuable lesson today: don't try and sneak new moves into the OOC before they're ready to come up in game, thinking no one will notice. Rush apparently sees all xD

Heheh. I'd like to go ahead and post again, but I think I'll wait for Haruki to say something with Stargaze before that, honestly, if she's got anything to say after all that. xD

Skobeloff looked on in fascination as Garrock began fussing over Shieldwing despite saying that he didn't care if they were injured. The sight brought to mind a word the fox-like fairies that taught him how to be a Trickster used to describe someone who externally appeared harsh and irritable but on the inside was much more caring than they appeared. 'Soon-deer' they called it... Or perhaps it was 'sunder-ray'...


OMG Rush xD

Skobeloff plays the Long Game. He rolls a 10 and chooses to create an opportunity and seize a resource.


I'm not sure if this is exactly how this move is supposed to be utilized - like I don't know if it can be your allies' failures or it can only be your own - but I'll allow it 'cause it's fun.

Liking Skobeloff so far. He really is living up to be a trickster xD

Well someone had to say it.

All according to plan. >: 3

Also, according to the move description, it's up to you to decide what opportunity Skobeloff has created.


Liking Skobeloff so far. He really is living up to be a trickster xD


I'm glad you think so.

As I was typing this post up, I just realized that the highest Cunning we have is Shieldwing at 0. So the most observant dragon in the clutch is Shieldwing. It also means the best dragon at misleading and tricking others is also Shieldwing xD

Though now that I think about it, it's kind of strange that the Trickster gets a -1 to Cunning, I would have thought Cunning would have been their 0 stat rather than Courage.

Actually, I took A Tongue Of Silver when I made Skobeloff which lets him use Charm to mislead rather than Cunning.

Ah, that's a fair point. Hadn't considered that. That makes more sense then. But still, I think it's strange that they prioritize Courage over Cunning, but maybe that's just me.

This was exactly my thought as well when I was first reading through the various playbooks. There are a couple of stat choices that did have me scratching my head. Like, why does the Nature Adept, someone who is stated to feel out of place around other dragons, have a +1 to Charm? Why does the Seer have a -1 to Cunning, when so much of their identity revolves around hidden knowledge? Then again, when you only have three stats to work with, your combinations for each playbook are limited so *shrug*

Was also confused by Seer and Trickster stat spread - you'd think Trickster would be cunning but cowardly for example...

Will post tomorrow (getting late here), got a bunch to react to now!

Posted. Just wanted to clarify you do have a second option as to where to start searching, because I was worried I hadn't made that entirely clear in my intro post ^^; But if everyone is agreement about going looking for Echo, then I can have Haruki roll for it.

Here's the Traversing the Wilderness move for when you guys are ready. Made a few changes to it.

I'm game for either option! Fellwing kind of wants to support Stargaze in finding her old friend and ask some questions while at it before heading to the stronghold, unless the latter is on the way/closer. But she's not fussy either way.

- you’ve created an opportunity; the DM will tell you how you or an ally can claim it.
