They are important in Social Encounters. Intimacies come in three levels of intensity, Minor, Major, and Defining. Minor intimacies are notable parts of you character's worldview, but only come into play when the subject of the intimacy is directly relevant to the current situation. Major intimacies hold more influence over your character, coming into play even if the subject is only indirectly or tangentially related to the situation at hand. Defining intimacies play a part in every aspect of a character's life, they are pillars of their worldview. +## Gaining Intimacies +Characters start with whatever intimacies their players feel are appropriate, with a minimum of four Intimacies, of which at least one must be Defining, one must be Major, one must be in some way negative (a thing the character opposes or dislikes), and one must be positive (a thing the character likes or supports). + +Characters may gain new Intimacies in several ways, all subject to GM approval. The key to changing intimacies is that the change must make sense given the roleplaying going on during the scene and in the broader context of the story. Character's can't gain new intimacies if it doesn't match how they've been played. +- Intimacies can be created at Minor intensity or strengthened by one level by the social influence of other characters. +- Whenever the player feels it is appropriate and the GM agrees, the character may add a new minor intimacy or intensify an existing intimacy by one level. +- In extraordinary situations, the character may gain a new intimacy at major or defining intensity based on the events of the story.

Generally this should follow several sessions in which the subject of the intimacy hasn't come up; characters should rarely drop or degrade an intimacy right after it is created even if it is undesirable. Alternately, this might follow several sessions showing the character resolving or working to conquer unwanted intimacies, such as intimacies of fear or hatred. +- Whenever the GM judges that a player hasn't reflected the intimacy in their roleplaying for a while, they may declare that it has degraded or disappeared completely.

The modifier for an influence roll is always Presence and a relevant skill. An additional bonus or detriment can be received based on the apparel score of the involved characters. These additional modifiers typically range from -3 to +3 and depend on the apparel of the characters and the target. This bonus is determined by the GM. + +Social encounters revolve around intimacies. In terms of gameplay you're either going to be influencing someone's outlook or using intimacies to persuade someone to do what you want. A character's intimacies dictate what they believe and care about. Without exploiting an intimacy persuasion isn't possible. No matter how charismatic you might be, a stranger won't give over their life to your cause just because you say so; there has to be a reason to make them take such a course of action. You need to play on an intimacy to be able to talk people into doing the things you want them to do. The stronger an intimacy is the more you can convince people to do in its name. While PCs can influence NPCs, they may also be on the receiving end of social encounters using the same rules. +## Order of Actions +Social actions don't usually have special timing, there are no "Social turns." When a player's character tries to convince someone of something, they'll probably be the only person rolling dice, everything else is roleplay between the characters. When multiple characters attempt social actions in the same encounter, who rolls when can be decided by the natural flow of conversation or by procedure (in a court for example). If two characters are both trying to present different arguments to a single individual, then that individual's player decides who to listen to first. If it's still not clear who acts in which order, then the character with the highest Presence goes first, with the GM breaking any ties. + +## Rolling Dice +When making checks in social encounters there are two typical target values these are the target's passive Resolve (10 + Resolve + Resolve) or their passive Composure (10 + Composure + Composure). Typically resolve is used as the target for instill, inspire, persuade, bargain, and threaten actions and Composure is used as the target for read intentions actions. +## Intimacies +Intimacies represent a character's relationships, beliefs, ideals, and goals. A character's intimacies help determine what types of influence will affect them. +### Intensity +The strength of an intimacy is defined by its intensity -- Minor, Major, or Defining. When a character is targeted by an influence roll that opposes one ore more of their intimacies, add a bonus to their resolve based on the intensity of the most applicable intimacy. On the other hand, if one or more of a character's intimacies supports an influence roll applied against them, then they suffer a corresponding penalty to Resolve based on the most applicable intimacy. If more than one intimacy supports or opposes a social action, only the most relevant intimacy modifies the target's Resolve. + +The effects of the different intensities are listed below. +- **Minor** intimacies are notable relationships or beliefs that have some influence over a character's actions without being an integral part of who they are. Characters will usually let their minor intimacies dictate their behavior on situations where it is directly relevant, as long as it does not act against a stronger intimacy or their own self-interest. +- **Major** intimacies are relationships that influence the way characters act in many areas of life. Major intimacies influence the behavior of characters even in situations where they are only tangentially or indirectly relevant, and might lead to a character to act against their own self-interest as long as they do not face severe harm or life-altering inconveniences because of it. +- **Defining** intimacies represent the most important things in a character's life, the relationships or beliefs that they place above all others and refuse to compromise. Defining intimacies influence the greater part of a character's behavior in all field of life. If there's something for which a character is willing to lay down their life, then it is best represented by this level of intensity. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 0.5/13 Social/02 🔵 Social Actions.md b/Version 0.5/13 Social/02 🔵 Social Actions.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..25033fd --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 0.5/13 Social/02 🔵 Social Actions.md @@ -0,0 +1,41 @@ +# Social Actions +The following is a list of social encounter actions, what they can accomplish, and what conditions must be met to retry them after they fail. +## Instill +The instill action is used to change the feelings and beliefs of others. When a player takes an instill action, they declare what they want to make the target feel or believe. The GM may apply penalties to the roll if this belief is particularly implausible or hard to accept, up to a maximum penalty of -20 for truly unbelievable claims. On a successful roll, the target forms an intimacy towards that belief. + +There are limits to what someone will believe when they already have strong opinions to the contrary. The character may need to lessen the existing intimacies before instilling new ones. While the instill action can always be used to create new minor intimacies, altering existing intimacies is more difficult: +- Strengthening a minor intimacy or weakening a major intimacy can only be done if the target has a different minor or better intimacy that supports the attempted influence. +- Raising a major intimacy or weakening a defining intimacy is only possible if the target has a different major or better intimacy that supports the attempted influence. +- Strengthening an existing intimacy requires that the evidence raised or argument made in favor of the strengthening be more compelling than whatever cause the intimacy to arrive at its current intensity. +## Persuade +The persuade action allows you to convince other characters to perform an action or task that you give to them. The extent of the action you can compel with persuade depends on the intimacies of your target. + +Without an intimacy to support your influence roll, you can only convince others to take relatively trivial and risk free actions. +### Inconvenient Tasks +Characters who have an appropriate minor intimacy can be convinced to perform tasks that pose some mild danger or hinderance to them, as long as it is not severe enough to seriously disrupt their life or livelihood -- the prospect of a severe injury, an angry superior, or heavy financial loss is still more than they will allow. With this level of intimacy, you can persuade people to do things that take longer than an encounter to complete, if the amount of time needed is not so long as to disrupt the target's life. +### Serious Tasks +Characters who have an appropriate major intimacy can be convinced to perform even tasks that carry the risk of extreme harm or impediment. At this level, a farmer could be convinced to join your personal militia despite the risk of dying on the battlefield, while an apothecary might provide you with poisons even though he faces imprisonment or corporal punishment for doing so. However, they will still balk if the risk of death or ruin is almost certain. Tasks that take extended amounts of time are possible at this level, even if they require a long term commitment such as joining an organization. +### Life Changing Tasks +Characters who have a defining intimacy can be made to do almost anything. At this level, you could convince a devoted follower to hold off an enemy long enough to buy time for your escape, or make a wealthy noble donate the batter portion of their fortune to your personal cult. Only in cases where death or utter ruin are absolutely, unavoidably certain will they balk, and even then the GM might decide they're willing to do it despite all odds. +## Bargain +Bargaining is similar to the persuade action, but doesn't depend on your target's intimacies. Instead you must offer a bribe, gift, or favor that the character you're convincing believes is worth the difficulty or the task you're asking them to perform. The GM should take into account the intimacies, wealth, and social status of the target deciding what they will consider sufficient payment. +## Threaten +When all else fails, pain an intimidation are brutally effective motivators. Threaten works like a bargain: you can convince people to do things without having to appeal to their intimacies, only rather than offering something they want you present them with something they don't -- usually the threat of bodily harm, although social blackmail, economic ruin, and general intimidation will also do the job. It can also be used as an instill action which gives the target an intimacy of fear towards you, or intensifies such an intimacy they already have. For a threaten action to be effective, the target must be more afraid of the conseque3ncers of refusing you then they are of whatever you want them to do. If the target has any awe, or fear, based intimacies you're aware of, that's usually a good place to start. + +Blackmail and bullying won't make you many friends. Using the threaten action on someone almost always causes them to form an immediate negative intimacy towards you, with a context chosen by the target's player, regardless of whether the attempt succeeds or fails. It can also weaken any existing positive intimacies the target might have. +## Inspire +The inspire action is used to incite emotions and strong passions in the hearts of others, usually with the Performance skill, which those others then act on. When a player takes an inspire action, they choose which emotion they are attempting to inspire.

On a failed roll, the character is unimpressed or unmoved by whatever argument or offer was made. On a successful roll, the target is persuaded or moved by your words. +## Spending Willpower +Even if a character's Resolve is overcome, they may still have an opportunity to deny the influence. If the influence is trying to change how they feel, such as by creating, destroying, or changing their intimacies, they may spend a point of willpower to: +- Stop a new intimacy from being created. Although the character is moved, they just can't afford to invest themselves in a new person or cause. +- Stop a major or defining intimacy from being weakened. Even though the influence was convincing, the character just has too much invested in the intimacy to give up now, even if they want to. +- Reject a successful inspire action. The character uses their force of will to deny their swelling passions. +## Decision Points +Refusing successful influence to make the character do something is trickier. When a character fails to resist such influence with their Resolve, they enter into a special state called a Decision Point. + +In the Decision Point, the player must choose an intimacy and explain how it justifies resisting that specific influence. The intimacy they choose must be of equal or greater intensity than the intimacy which supported the influence roll, and it can't be the one that strengthened their Resolve against the roll in the first place -- the influence already overcame that particular source of reluctance when it beat their Resolve. + +If those requirements are met, and if the GM accepts the player's argument for why one of their intimacies would make them reject the influence, then the character may spend one willpower point to resist the influence roll. Otherwise, resistance is impossible. +## Lengthy Debates +Sometimes after a character has spent willpower in a decision point in order to reject influence, the initiate will return with a new or stronger argument. When this happens, the initiate is engaging the reset rules for social actions. If the same issue is being argued as a result, the target may not use an intimacy which boosted their resolve against the initial roll. After all, that logic was not enough to stop them from being forced in the decision point in the first place. To boost their resolve against the initiate's second attempt, they must find another intimacy to raise their resolve -- or use the one that allowed them to reject influence in the decision point. Remember that according to the rules of decision points, the intimacy a character uses to raise their resolve cannot be invoked in the decision point. This rule continues to apply throughout the story -- as long as the initiate can find new angles with which to demonstrate the rightness of her persuasion, they can cause their target to use up all of their valid excuses over the course of a story. When a character has no valid intimacies with which to enter a decision point, beating their resolve will finally convince them to agree with the initiate's arguments. +## Unacceptable Influence +There are limits on what can be achieved with social influence. No amount of charisma is sufficient to talk someone into suicide, or convince a die-hard patriot to betray their cause. If a request is so antithetical to the nature and personality of its target that it cannot possible succeed, it is said to be unacceptable influence. A character targeted by unacceptable influence may reject it outright without spending willpower, even if their resolve would not normally be high enough to defend against it. A player can still choose to have their character follow the course of action but forward by unacceptable influence, but only because they think it makes sense -- the character cannot be coerced into doing it. + +Unacceptable influence includes: +- Any instill action to strengthen or weaken an intimacy which doesn't exploit an appropriately strong intimacy to do so. +- Any persuasion attempt which doesn't exploit an intimacy strong enough to support the proposed task. +- Any bargain attempt which fails to offer a properly enticing incentive or threaten action which is insufficiently threatening. +- Any influence that would cause a character to kill themselves, or to do something that they know would result in their certain death. +- Any influence that would cause a character to completely abandon or end one of their defining intimacies is unacceptable. +- Any seduction attempt that violates a character's sexual orientation (as defined by the player, or by the GM in the case of NPCs) is unacceptable. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 0.5/13 Social/04 🔵 Social Complications.md b/Version 0.5/13 Social/04 🔵 Social Complications.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8aebc36 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 0.5/13 Social/04 🔵 Social Complications.md @@ -0,0 +1,16 @@ +# Social Complications +A number of considerations may arise when winning friends and influencing people. +## One Target vs Multiple Targets +Much of the time, an influence roll only affects one character. Sometimes, however, a character may wish to make a single influence roll against multiple characters.

Whenever an influence roll targets more than one character, it suffers a -5 penalty. + +Because the different targets of an influence roll can have varying passive Resolve scores, the success or failure of the action is determined separately for each target. +## Written Social Actions +The written word can be used to persuade or manipulate others just as easily as speech. Characters who wish to convey influence through a letter, pamphlet, book, or other written work do so as a written social action. The time taken to create a writing missive varies based on the form and length of the work. The GM decides how long it takes, with a minimum time of five minutes in most cases. Likewise, the time needed to read the missive is decided by the GM based on length. + +The skill used when rolling for a written social action is always Culture. When a character reads the message, compare the result of the roll to the target's passive Resolve to determine if it succeeds, as with normal influence rolls. Written social actions can be written to apply either against a single intended reader or against anyone who reads them, with the usual effects for targeting multiple characters. +## Gestures and Body Language +When a character attempts to communicate through gestures, appearance, and body language alone, the target of such silent influence adds a +2 to their passive Resolve. This is normally only useful for attempts at intimidation or seduction, but players are free to be creative and think up other applications. Many things are impossible to communicate silently. No amount of handwaving or quirked eyebrows can explain the intricacies of court politics. +## Overturning Influence +Character's are generally loathe to abandon a course of action once they've set themselves upon it, and so overturning existing social influence with additional social influence is difficult. First, a character who has already been persuaded to do something receives a +5 bonus to their passive Resolve against any influence that would cause them to abandon or disregard that persuasion. This bonus stacks with the intimacy bonus from a relevant intimacy. Second, a petitioner who wishes to overturn existing persuasive influence must spend a point of willpower before making their argument and roll. + +If the contradictory persuasion succeeds, the targeted character may use a decision point to resist by citing a conflicting intimacy, without spend a point of willpower to initiate the decision point because it's easier to stand by a hard fought decision than to abandon it and reverse yourself. Conversely, if a character wants to abandon their present course and accept a new influence, the character must spend a point of willpower and cite the intimacy which was used to change their mind. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 0.5/13 Social/05 🔵 Retrying Social Actions.md b/Version 0.5/13 Social/05 🔵 Retrying Social Actions.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..ddb5b89 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 0.5/13 Social/05 🔵 Retrying Social Actions.md @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +# Retrying Social Actions +When a character fails a social action they cannot simply repeat their old arguments and expect a different result.

They are important in [[02 🔵 Social Encounters|Social Encounters]]. Intimacies come in three levels of intensity, Minor, Major, and Defining. Minor intimacies are notable parts of you character's worldview, but only come into play when the subject of the intimacy is directly relevant to the current situation. Major intimacies hold more influence over your character, coming into play even if the subject is only indirectly or tangentially related to the situation at hand. Defining intimacies play a part in every aspect of a character's life, they are pillars of their worldview. +## Bonuses from Intimacy +When a roll calls for a bonus or penalty from related intimacies treat minor intimacies as a +/-1, major intimacies as a +/-3 and defining intimacies as a +/-5. +## Gaining Intimacies +Characters start with whatever intimacies their players feel are appropriate, with a minimum of four Intimacies, of which at least one must be Defining, one must be Major, one must be in some way negative (a thing the character opposes or dislikes), and one must be positive (a thing the character likes or supports). + +Characters may gain new Intimacies in several ways, all subject to GM approval. The key to changing intimacies is that the change must make sense given the roleplaying going on during the scene and in the broader context of the story. Character's can't gain new intimacies if it doesn't match how they've been played. +- Intimacies can be created at Minor intensity or strengthened by one level by the social influence of other characters. +- Whenever the player feels it is appropriate and the GM agrees, the character may add a new minor intimacy or intensify an existing intimacy by one level. +- In extraordinary situations, the character may gain a new intimacy at major or defining intensity based on the events of the story. If a character kills another character's family it's probably acceptable to go straight to a major or defining intimacy of hatred towards them. +## Losing Intimacies +Losing intimacies is similarly simple and subject to GM discretion. +- Intimacies can be degraded by one level or removed entirely (if minor) by the social influence of other characters. +- Whenever the player feels it is appropriate, **and the GM agrees**, the character may remove a minor intimacy or degrade an existing major or defining intimacy. Generally this should follow several sessions in which the subject of the intimacy hasn't come up; characters should rarely drop or degrade an intimacy right after it is created even if it is undesirable. Alternately, this might follow several sessions showing the character resolving or working to conquer unwanted intimacies, such as intimacies of fear or hatred. +- Whenever the GM judges that a player hasn't reflected the intimacy in their roleplaying for a while, they may declare that it has degraded or disappeared completely. This is mostly to keep characters from accumulating lots of defining intimacies, which should be reflected in the character's actions. Few characters can sustain the kind of intensity needed for more than a small handful of defining intimacies, and the GM's pruning help keeps down the clutter. +# Next Section +[[06 🟡 Qualities|Qualities]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/01 🟠 Character Creation and Progression/06 🟡 Qualities.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/01 🟠 Character Creation and Progression/06 🟡 Qualities.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..20ecae6 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/01 🟠 Character Creation and Progression/06 🟡 Qualities.md @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +Previous Section: [[05 🔵 Intimacies|Intimacies]] +# Qualities +Characters often have innate characteristics or consequences from past experiences that shape the way they are today.

It doesn't make sense for a character to raise their Dueling skill from a 4 to a 5 if they haven't experienced combat in weeks, even if they have enough experience points to do it. + +The following training times assume characters spend a significant portion of the quoted time working on the trait in question, though they need not do so exclusively -- a character can study to improve Engineering without being chained to a desk all day. Also, many forms of training may potentially benefit multiple traits -- Strength training is also a good reason to raise Athletics. Finally, practical experience also counts as a significant amount of training, however experience requires contemplation and practice to be truly beneficial. Neither training nor experience alone is sufficient for mastery. Treat these training times as a rough guideline rather than absolute quotas. Mentors and similarly skilled trainers should also reduce training times proportionate to their skill at teaching. Likewise, these training times assume the character is balancing training time with getting other things done. A character who retreats from their other duties to pursue nothing but training can raise their traits significantly faster than the times given here. + +| Trait | Training Time | +| -------------------- | --------------------------- | +| Attribute | 10 + (new level) months | +| Skill | 10 + (new level) weeks | +| Skill Specialization | (new level modifier) months | +| New Quality | Specified by the quality | +| New Feature | Specified by the feature | +# Next Section +[[09 🟡 Features|Features]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/01 🟠 Character Creation and Progression/09 🟡 Features.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/01 🟠 Character Creation and Progression/09 🟡 Features.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d80f3cf --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/01 🟠 Character Creation and Progression/09 🟡 Features.md @@ -0,0 +1,25 @@ +Previous Section: [[08 🔵 Experience Points|Experience Points]] +# Features +## Types of Features +### Archetypal Features +Archetypal features are features that follow a specific archetype as defined in the [[01🟠 Step-by-Step Character Creation|Step-by-Step Character Creation]] section.

A creature can't burrow through solid rock or anything of similar hardness unless it has a special trait for that. +### Climbing +Creatures with a climbing speed can move with ease on vertical surfaces. Unlike most creatures, a creature with a climbing speed doesn't need to spend extra movement when climbing using their climbing speed. +### Flying +A creature with a flying speed can use all or part of its movement to fly through the air. Most creatures with a flying speed must stay in continual motion to remain airborne, but some can hover. If a creature can hover, it is noted in parentheses after its flying speed. +### Swimming +Creatures with a swimming speed can move with ease in water or similar liquids. Unlike most creatures, a creature with a swimming speed doesn't need to spend extra movement when swimming using their swimming speed. In addition, creatures with a swimming speed don't make melee weapon attacks at disadvantage while underwater. +## Special Movement Rules +Characters often find themselves traversing dangerous environments or navigating perilous situations that require special kinds of movement. Characters might have to climb, crawl, swim, or jump to get where they need to go. In such circumstances, the following special movement rules apply. +### Climbing +While climbing, you move at half speed. If you climb in difficult terrain, each foot of movement costs 2 extra feet. At the GM's option, climbing a slippery vertical surface or one with few handholds might require one or more Strength + Athletics checks. Failing such a check might cause a creature to fall. +### Crawling +While crawling, you move at half speed. If you crawl in difficult terrain, each foot of movement costs 2 extra feet. +### Jumping +Several factors determine how far and how high a creature can jump. +#### Long Jump +When you make a long jump, you can cover a number of feet equal to Strength + Athletics. If you move at least 10 feet on foot immediately before the jump, you can cover an additional number of feet equal to half you walking speed. Either way, each foot you clean on the jump costs 1 foot of movement. + +This rule assumes the height of your jump doesn't matter, such as a jump across a stream or chasm. At the GM's discretion, you must succeed on a DV 10 Strength + Athletics check to clear a low obstacle (no taller than a quarter of the jump's distance). + +When you attempt to land in difficult terrain, you must succeed on a DV 10 Agility + Acrobatics check to land on your feet. Otherwise, you land prone. +#### High Jump +When you make a high jump, you leap into the air a number of feet equal to 3 + Strength if you move at least 10 feet on foot directly before jumping. When you make a standing high jump, you can jump half of that distance. Either way, each foot you clear on the jump costs 1 foot of movement. At the GM's discretion, you might be able to make a Strength + Athletics check to jump higher than you normally can. +### Swimming +While swimming, you move at half speed. At the GM's discretion, gaining distance in rough water might also require a successful Strength + Athletics check. Failing such a check might cause a creature to start drowning ([[06 🔵 Suffocating|Suffocating]]). Certain weapons are also more difficult to use while swimming. +## Difficult Terrain +Characters often travel on rough ground. Such areas are considered difficult terrain. You move at half speed in difficult terrain. Moving 1 foot in difficult terrain costs 2 feet of speed. If two or more sources of difficult terrain occur in the same space, you still move at only at only half speed. +## Forced Movement +Some effects or consequences move you against your will. Forced movement never provokes [[03 🔵 Actions#Intercept (A)|Intercept]] attacks from hostile creatures. +### Falling +Falling is a common hazard for characters. At the end of a fall, a creature lands prone and takes 1d10 bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it fell (to a maximum of 20d10) unless it has a feature or trait that allows it to avoid taking damage from the fall. When a creature starts falling they immediately fall 30 feet. If the character has not hit the ground they may take a turn and then fall an additional 30 feet at the end of their turn. This continues until the creature hits the ground. + +If a falling creature is knocked prone, has its flying speed reduced to 0, or otherwise loses the ability to move, immediately starts falling, unless it has the ability to hover or is held aloft by other means. +### Pulling and Pushing +Some affects such as the [[03 🔵 Actions#Push (I)|Push]] action can pull or push you away from a source. A creature that has grappled you might also drag you with it during its move. +## Traveling +Traveling is a method of movement used when creatures journey across great distances for long periods of time. When traveling, use travel pace rules to abstract this kind of movement. +### Travel Pace +While traveling, the party collectively decides if they move at a fast, normal, or slow pace. Consult the Travel Pace Table to find how far a group can move in a period of time for their pace, and whether the traveling at the pace has any benefits or penalties. Note that the Travel Pace Table assumes a party is moving through normal terrain. If a party is moving through difficult terrain, the distance they can travel is halved. +#### Mounts and Vehicles +For short time spans (up to 1 hour), many animals move much faster than Humanoids. A mounted character can ride at a gallop for about an hour, covering twice the usual distance for a fast pace. If fresh mounts are available every 10 to 12 miles, characters can cover larger distances at this pace, but this is rare except in densely populated areas. + +Characters in animal pulled ground vehicles choose a pace on the table as normal. Characters in other vehicles are limited to the speed of the vehicle, and don't suffer penalties for a fast pace or gain benefits from a slow pace. + +Mounts and vehicles can not travel at a fast pace while traveling through difficult terrain. Difficult terrain does still impose a movement speed penalty while using a mount or vehicle. +#### Travel Pace Table + +| Pace | Distance per minute | Distance per hour | Distance per quarter day | Effect | +| ------ | ------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------ | ------------------------------ | +| Fast | 525 feet | 6 miles | 36 miles | -5 penalty to Perception score | +| Normal | 350 feet | 4 miles | 24 miles | N/A | +| Slow | 175 feet | 2 miles | 12 miles | Can use stealth | +# Next Section +[[04 🔵 Interacting with Creatures]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/07 🟡 Interacting with the World/04 🔵 Interacting with Creatures.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/07 🟡 Interacting with the World/04 🔵 Interacting with Creatures.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..5e7acd9 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/07 🟡 Interacting with the World/04 🔵 Interacting with Creatures.md @@ -0,0 +1,48 @@ +Previous Section: [[03 🔵 Movement]] +# Interacting with Creatures +While exploring, characters inevitably meet all manner of people and monsters. Creature is a broad term used to describe every living or sentient being in the game. All social interactions follow the same basic structure and are primarily accomplished through roleplaying. However, attempting to make a creature behave in a certain way usually involves rolling dice. Complex or tense social interactions present themselves as [[02 🔵 Social Encounters|Social Encounters]] and use the rules presented therein. These rules are not a substitute for roleplay but should be used as a crutch for determining the outcomes of complex social interactions. +## Roleplaying +Roleplaying is the main way that players interact with the game world -- through their characters. Most players are tasked with roleplaying only their own character, while the GM plays all the other creatures that appear. + +Roleplaying is very similar to a basic form of acting, requiring a player to imagine how their character might think and feel as they experience the sights, sounds, and events described by the GM or other players at the table. Then, the player describes how their character responds or literally speaks the words their character would say in that circumstance. + +Roleplaying a character doesn't mean you can't talk to the other real people at your table as your real self. In fact, "staying in character" the entire game can be harmful to navigating the overarching game experience. The key to great roleplaying is to identify and communicate the moments in the game where speaking or thinking "in character" is the best way to engage with the story. + +> [!NOTE] Player Advice +> While you roleplay only your character, the GM has many more characters--sometimes several at once. Always remember to be kind to your GM as they bring the world to life. +> Here are a few concrete wayus to show that kindness: +> - If you notice a conversation between a PC and NPC isn't going anywhere, the GM has started repeating answers or information, or an interaction has a player (not a character) frustrated consider stepping "out of character" to ask directly if there is anything left to gain through conversation or if a different approach can move the story along. +> - Meeting new characters has a place in the game, but there are moments where stopping the action to talk to random creatures brings things to a halt. Stay aware of how much time you spend talking to NPCs versus the amount of time other PCs do. Adjust as needed. +> - No matter how brilliantly you roleplay or how well you roll the dice, some creatuyres won't ever act or respond the way you want them to. If you made a good effort and aren't getting the response you want,. stop trying, let someone else have a turn, and let the game move along. + +## Contacts +Contacts are a special type of NPC that character's know and who serve as sources of goods, information, and services. They are not omniscient. They have a particular area of specialty, but they can usually reach out to others in their network. Contacts can be acquired during character creation, and they can also be awarded in the course of gameplay if the GM thinks the players have earned it. + +Contacts have a set of regular character stats as well as two special stats: Connection and Loyalty. Both ratings range from 1 to 10 +### Connection +Connection measures the contact's network and their capabilities of pulling information from the people they know. Someone who is new in town and just getting to know people would have a 1; a popular merchant might have a 4 or so; a mayor or city leader might have a 5 or 6; leaders of small countries would have a 7 or 8; leaders of large nations could have up to a 9 or 10. Contacts use their connection rating to find out how much information they might know about certain subject. The GM rolls a Connection + Connection check and compares the result to the Connection Results table. + +Typically players will not know the exact value of a contact's connection but they may be aware of roughly how connected they are. +#### Connection Results Table + +| Roll | Result | +| ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | +| 5 | Basic, broadly available background information | +| 10 | Information from previous study or loose professional knowledge | +| 15 | More esoteric knowledge, some whispers of gossip | +| 20 | Deep academic familiarity, strong professional knowledge, behind-the-scenes familiarity | +| 25 | High level information, knowledge of secrets and hidden information | +| 30 | Almost encyclopedic knowledge, including some deep secrets | +| 35 | Rare knowledge only available to a select few | +| 40 | Deep secrets others actively try to hide | + +### Loyalty +Loyalty is used to determine how much the contact is willing to share with the player character. The general loyalty check is Presence + Loyalty. The result is the level of knowledge from the Connection Results table that the contact is willing to share for free. Levels above this can be learned through actions described in the [[02 🔵 Social Encounters|Social Encounters]] section. Contacts can only share what they know--just because the character rolled well on their loyalty check and the contact is willing to share information does not mean they suddenly know something they would not have known before. +#### Increasing Loyalty +While players do not typically know the exact value of a contacts loyalty they can increase the contacts loyalty by exploiting intimacies similar to an [[03 🔵 Social Actions#Instill|Instill]] action. The GM determines which level of intimacy is required to be exploited and sets the difficulty of the influence roll. If the player successfully beats the roll they increase the loyalty of the target. + +Loyalty may also be increased during the [[3 🟡 Carousing|Carousing]] downtime activity, through roleplay, or over the course of a game as determined by the GM. +## Making New Contacts +New contacts are made during the course of the game through roleplay or the [[3 🟡 Carousing|Carousing]] downtime activity.

The player tells the GM that their character is doing something, such as moving a lever, and the GM describes what happens. Sometimes interacting with an object isn't trivial and the GM may call for a skill check to perform the desired action. + +Characters can also damage objects. Objects are immune to poison and psychic damage, but otherwise they can be affected by attacks. The GM determines the object's EV and Health and might decide that certain objects have resistance or immunity to certain kinds of attacks (it's hard to cut a rope with a club, for example). Objects always fail Strength and Agility saves, and they are immune to effects that require other saves. When an object drops to 0 Health, it breaks. A character can also attempt a Strength check to break an object. The GM sets the DV for any such check. +## Types of Items +### Items +Items is the highest level category. It includes almost everything that isn't a creature or natural terrain. Items include equipment, objects, structures, and vehicles, and it's a catchall for things that don't fit neatly into another category. +### Equipment +The equipment category includes all items that can be carried or wielded by characters. Most weapons, armor, gear, and tools fall into this category. Typically equipment doesn't have EV or health and it can't be broken or damaged like other kinds of items. +### Objects +The objects category includes all items that can't be carried or wielded or items. Objects generally have an EV and health. Typically, objects can be broken. In many cases it makes more sense to treat huge or gargantuan objects as structures. +### Structures +The structure category contains items that are massive in scale or composed of many smaller objects. For example a single wall might be an object, but an entire castle would be a structure. Like objects, most structures can be broken. However, due to their scale, they often posses unique rules around breaking. +### Vehicles +The vehicle category includes items that are similar in size to structures and composed of many smaller objects. Vehicles specifically have their own vehicle stat block. Vehicles work differently from other items and are governed by their own rules. +## Lifting and Carrying +Your Strength score determines the amount of weight you can bear. The following terms define what you can lift or carry. +### Carrying Capacity +Your carrying capacity is equal to (10 + your strength score) * 15. This is the maximum weight, in pounds, that you can carry. If a character attempts to carry more weight than their carrying capacity their speed is reduced to 0. For every minute spent carrying more than your carrying capacity you must make an Exhaustion check. + +If you carry weight in excess of one third of your carrying capacity, you are encumbered, which means your speed drops by 10 feet. + +If you carry weight in excess of two thirds of your carrying capacity, up to your maximum carrying capacity, you are heavily encumbered. This means your speed drops by 20 feet and you have disadvantage on skill checks, attack rolls, and saves using Physical attributes. +### Push, Drag, or Lift +You can push, drag, or lift a weight in pounds equal to twice your carrying capacity. While pushing or dragging weight in excess of your carrying capacity your speed drops to 5 feet. +### Size and Strength +Larger creatures can bear more weight, whereas Tiny creatures can carry less. For each size category above Medium, double the creature's carrying capacity and the amount it can push, drag, and lift.

This is called vision. Creatures usually have secondary senses of hearing, smell, and touch that also allow them to interact with the environment, but vision is considered the "standard" primary sense. + +Darkness and other effects that obscure vision can prove significant hindrance. Areas of darkness or other effects that interfere with vision are labels as either lightly or heavily obscured. +### Lightly Obscured +In a lightly obscured area, such as dim light, patchy fog, or moderate foliage, creatures have disadvantage on Perception checks that rely on sight. +### Heavily Obscured +In a heavily obscured area, such as darkness, opaque fog, or dense foliage, a creature effectively suffers from the Blinded condition when trying to see something in that area. A blinded creature can't see and automatically fails any skill check that requires sight. Attack rolls against the creature have advantage, and the creature's attack rolls have disadvantage. +### Light Levels +The presence or absence of light in an environment is the common factor in determining whether an area is lightly or heavily obscured. The amount of light in a given area is measured by the following categories. +#### Sunlight +Sunlight lets most creatures see normally. It also has special effects on certain creatures with the Sunlight Sensitivity trait or similar features. +#### Bright Light +Bright light lets most creatures see normally. Even gloomy days provide bright light, as do torches, lanterns, fires, and other light sources within a short radius. +#### Dim Light +Dim light, also called shadows, creates a lightly obscured area. An area of dim light is usually a boundary between a source of bright light and surrounding darkness. The soft light of twilight and dawn also count as dim light. A full moon might also provide dim light. +#### Darkness +Darkness creates a heavily obscured area. Characters face darkness outdoors at night or within the confines of an unlit building or dungeon. +#### Magical Darkness +Magical darkness creates a heavily obscured area like darkness, but also obscures the vision of creatures who can see in darkness due to darkvision or similar abilities. +### Special Senses +In addition to basic vision, creatures can have one or more of the following additional senses. +#### Darkvision +A creature with darkvision can see in darkness. Within darkvision range, the creature can see in dim light as if it were bright light and can see in darkness as if it were dim light. A creature can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray. +#### Keensense +A creature with keensense can perceive its surroundings using a sense other than vision. Creatures without eyes typically have this sense, as do creatures with echolocation or an extraordinary sense of smell. If a creature has no other form of sensing, it has a parenthetical note to this effect, indicating that the radius of its keensense defines the maximum range of its ability to perceive the world. +#### Tremorsense +A creature with tremorsense can detect and pinpoint the source of vibrations when it and the source are in contact with the same ground or substance. Tremorsense typically can't detect flying or incorporeal creatures. +#### Truesight +A creature with truesight can see in dim light, darkness, and magical darkness as if it were bright light. It also sees creatures and objects with the invisible condition, it automatically detects visual illusions and succeeds on saves against them, and it perceives the true form of a creature with the Shapechanger tag or a creature that is transformed by magic.

If you have immunity to a specific condition or type of effect, you can't be affected by that condition or any effect of that type. If you have immunity to effects with a certain trait (such as death effects, poison, or disease) you are unaffected by any effect with that trait. Often, an effect can be both a trait and a damage type (this is especially true in the case of energy damage types). In these cases, the immunity apples to the entire effect, not just the damage. You can still be targeted by an ability with an effect you are immune to; just don't apply the effect. + +Immunity to critical hits works a little differently. When a creature immune to critical hits is critically hit, the attack hits but is treated as a normal attack rather than a critical one. +### Resistance +If a creature has resistance to a type of damage, each time it takes that type of damage, it is reduced by the listed amount (to a minimum of 0). Resistance can specify combinations of damage types or traits. A resistance also might have an exception. For example, resistance 10 to physical damage (except silver) would reduce any physical damage by 10 unless that damage was dealt by a silver weapon. + +If you have more than one type of resistance that would apply to the same instance of damage, use only the highest applicable resistance value. + +It's possible to have resistance to all damage. When an effect deals damage of multiple types and you have resistance to all damage, apply the resistance to each type of damage separately. If an attack would deal 7 slashing damage and 4 fire damage, resistance 5 to all damage would reduce the slashing damage to 2 and negate the fire damage entirely. +### Vulnerability +If you have a weakness to a certain type of damage or damage form a certain source, that type of damage is extra effective against you. Whenever you would take that type of damage, increase the damage you take by the value of the weakness. For instance, if you are dealt 2d6 fire damage and have vulnerability 5 to fire, you take 2d6 + 5 fire damage. + +If you have more than one weakness that would apply to the same instance of damage, use only the highest applicable weakness value.

If you're going to use it as a weapon, rather than a boost or recreational high, it falls in this category. +## Drugs +Drugs are toxins that you take on purpose, and they vary from beer to high intensity performance and mood enhancers. They can have enormous effects on a character's mood and personality. If a character gets high on street drugs, it shouldn't be glossed over. +## Attributes +Both drugs and toxins have similar attributes to identify how to use the substance in game. +### Vector +Vector refers to how the toxin is delivered to the target. + +**Contact** toxins can be solid, liquid, or gaseous. They attack the victim through the skin. These toxins, if in liquid form, can be coated on a weapon. In this case, they can be applied with a successful attack. + +**Ingested** toxins must be eaten by the victim. They can be solids or liquids.

These can also be used to coat an edged weapon, but they only affect a target with a successful attack that causes physical damage. +### Speed +Speed determines how quickly the victim suffers the toxin's effects. These effects are always applied at the end of a combat round. **Immediate** means the effect is applied at the end of the same combat round in which the victim is exposed. A speed of 1 combat round means the effect is applied at the end of the next combat round, and so on. +### Duration +Duration is the length of time the substance stays effective in the bloodstream. +### Power +Power tells how powerful the toxin is. A toxin resistance check of Body + Stamina is used to resist the toxin. The DV of this check is equal to the power of the toxin. If a toxin is resisted, the imposed statuses do not apply unless noted in the toxin description. If toxin is resisted fully and the toxin deals damage no damage is dealt, however if the toxin is not resisted the full damage is dealt. +### Effect +Effect tells what happens to a victim exposed to the toxin. Many toxins simply cause damage; in this case, the effect defines the type of damage. Damage from toxins is treated just like any other injury. Some toxins cause other effects, such as imposing particular conditions or statuses. These statuses are listed as part of the substance's description. Unless otherwise noted, all effects occur unless the toxin is resisted. +### Concentration +Sometimes a character gets hit with a lot of toxin. If exposed to more than a single dose at a given time, increase the Power of the toxin by +1 per additional dose. Likewise, if an individual is left in contact for an extended period, the effects can be increased. If the victim is still being exposed after 10 combat rounds, perform another toxin resistance check. For each subsequent toxin resistance check after the first, increase the power of the toxin by +1, cumulatively. +## Antidotes +If they're to do any good, antidotes must be taken before a toxin's effect kicks in. An antidote taken afterward will not diminish the damage caused by the toxin but may reduce the Duration and the toxin's other effects. Note that some toxins simply have no effective antidote. +# Next Section +[[05 🔵 Starvation and Dehydration]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/09 🟡 Other Sources of Harm/05 🔵 Starvation and Dehydration.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/09 🟡 Other Sources of Harm/05 🔵 Starvation and Dehydration.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4325b7d --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/09 🟡 Other Sources of Harm/05 🔵 Starvation and Dehydration.md @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +Previous Section: [[04 🔵 Toxins and Drugs]] +# Starvation and Dehydration +Characters who don't eat or drink suffer the effects of [[06 🔵 Exhaustion|exhaustion]].

These additional modifiers typically range from -3 to +3 and depend on the apparel of the characters and the target. This bonus is determined by the GM. + +Social encounters revolve around intimacies. In terms of gameplay you're either going to be influencing someone's outlook or using intimacies to persuade someone to do what you want. A character's intimacies dictate what they believe and care about. Without exploiting an intimacy persuasion isn't possible. No matter how charismatic you might be, a stranger won't give over their life to your cause just because you say so; there has to be a reason to make them take such a course of action. You need to play on an intimacy to be able to talk people into doing the things you want them to do. The stronger an intimacy is the more you can convince people to do in its name. While PCs can influence NPCs, they may also be on the receiving end of social encounters using the same rules. +## Order of Actions +Social actions don't usually have special timing, there are no "Social turns." When a player's character tries to convince someone of something, they'll probably be the only person rolling dice, everything else is roleplay between the characters. When multiple characters attempt social actions in the same encounter, who rolls when can be decided by the natural flow of conversation or by procedure (in a court for example). If two characters are both trying to present different arguments to a single individual, then that individual's player decides who to listen to first. If it's still not clear who acts in which order, then the character with the highest Presence goes first, with the GM breaking any ties. + +## Rolling Dice +When making checks in social encounters there are two typical target values these are the target's passive Resolve (10 + Resolve + Resolve) or their passive Composure (10 + Composure + Composure). Typically resolve is used as the target for instill, inspire, persuade, bargain, and threaten actions and Composure is used as the target for read intentions actions. +## Intimacies +Intimacies represent a character's relationships, beliefs, ideals, and goals. A character's intimacies help determine what types of influence will affect them. +### Intensity +The strength of an intimacy is defined by its intensity -- Minor, Major, or Defining. When a character is targeted by an influence roll that opposes one ore more of their intimacies, add a bonus to their resolve based on the intensity of the most applicable intimacy. On the other hand, if one or more of a character's intimacies supports an influence roll applied against them, then they suffer a corresponding penalty to Resolve based on the most applicable intimacy. If more than one intimacy supports or opposes a social action, only the most relevant intimacy modifies the target's Resolve. + +The effects of the different intensities are listed below. +- **Minor** intimacies are notable relationships or beliefs that have some influence over a character's actions without being an integral part of who they are. Characters will usually let their minor intimacies dictate their behavior on situations where it is directly relevant, as long as it does not act against a stronger intimacy or their own self-interest. +- **Major** intimacies are relationships that influence the way characters act in many areas of life. Major intimacies influence the behavior of characters even in situations where they are only tangentially or indirectly relevant, and might lead to a character to act against their own self-interest as long as they do not face severe harm or life-altering inconveniences because of it. +- **Defining** intimacies represent the most important things in a character's life, the relationships or beliefs that they place above all others and refuse to compromise. Defining intimacies influence the greater part of a character's behavior in all field of life. If there's something for which a character is willing to lay down their life, then it is best represented by this level of intensity. +- # Next Section +- [[03 🔵 Social Actions|03 🔵 Social Actions]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/03 🔵 Social Actions.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/03 🔵 Social Actions.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..68cdd4d --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/03 🔵 Social Actions.md @@ -0,0 +1,44 @@ +Previous Section: [[02 🔵 Social Encounters|02 🔵 Social Encounters]] +# Social Actions +The following is a list of social encounter actions, what they can accomplish, and what conditions must be met to retry them after they fail. +## Instill +The instill action is used to change the feelings and beliefs of others.

The GM may apply penalties to the roll if this belief is particularly implausible or hard to accept, up to a maximum penalty of -20 for truly unbelievable claims.

Only in cases where death or utter ruin are absolutely, unavoidably certain will they balk, and even then the GM might decide they're willing to do it despite all odds. +## Bargain +Bargaining is similar to the persuade action, but doesn't depend on your target's intimacies. Instead you must offer a bribe, gift, or favor that the character you're convincing believes is worth the difficulty or the task you're asking them to perform. The GM should take into account the intimacies, wealth, and social status of the target deciding what they will consider sufficient payment. +## Threaten +When all else fails, pain an intimidation are brutally effective motivators. Threaten works like a bargain: you can convince people to do things without having to appeal to their intimacies, only rather than offering something they want you present them with something they don't -- usually the threat of bodily harm, although social blackmail, economic ruin, and general intimidation will also do the job. It can also be used as an instill action which gives the target an intimacy of fear towards you, or intensifies such an intimacy they already have. For a threaten action to be effective, the target must be more afraid of the conseque3ncers of refusing you then they are of whatever you want them to do. If the target has any awe, or fear, based intimacies you're aware of, that's usually a good place to start. + +Blackmail and bullying won't make you many friends. Using the threaten action on someone almost always causes them to form an immediate negative intimacy towards you, with a context chosen by the target's player, regardless of whether the attempt succeeds or fails. It can also weaken any existing positive intimacies the target might have. +## Inspire +The inspire action is used to incite emotions and strong passions in the hearts of others, usually with the Performance skill, which those others then act on. When a player takes an inspire action, they choose which emotion they are attempting to inspire. On a successful inspire roll, the target is impassioned according to the emotion evoked -- but the target's player chooses what form that passion takes. + +An impassioned character might form a new passion, or act upon an existing intimacy that aligns with the emotion evoked. A character doesn't have to drop everything they're doing to act upon an inspire action, but they must be genuinely resolved to action. + +Inspiration doesn't automatically create or strengthen intimacies, but it's often appropriate for it to do so as characters act upon their inflamed passions. An inflamed passion may be treated as a major intimacy for the purposes of modifying passive Resolve and enabling persuade actions, for as long as the character is acting on it. + +The inspiring character doesn't automatically know what passions he has inspired in their audience; they must use read intentions to find out. Because a character does not, and cannot, tailor the outcome of an inspire action to a specific target, inspire actions aren't subject to penalty for group influence. +## Read Intentions +The read intentions action allows a character to discern what another character wants to achieve in an encounter or interaction. Reading someone's intentions is not an influence roll, instead it is a Awareness + Insight roll against the target's passive Composure. On a success, the GM should give a brief description of what the character wants out of some interaction. + +Alternatively, this action can be used in order to determine what intimacies a character has. Before rolling for the action, the player should generally describe what kind of intimacy they want to discern. On a success, the GM chooses and reveals one of the target's intimacies that fit the criteria. If there is no intimacy that does, the GM should let the player know this. + +The read intentions action is not a form of magic. The character using it is analyzing the target's words and behavior to get a better feel for their motives and intimacies, and the GM should use common sense in deciding how much information can be gleaned from a character's behavior and appearance. + +Finally, a character who is unaware they are being observed suffers a -3 penalty to their passive Composure. +# Next Section +[[04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls|04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..92629e4 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls.md @@ -0,0 +1,28 @@ +Previous Section: [[03 🔵 Social Actions|03 🔵 Social Actions]] +# Resisting Influence Rolls +The base DV for an influence roll is always the passive Resolve of the character targeted by the roll. On a failed roll, the character is unimpressed or unmoved by whatever argument or offer was made. On a successful roll, the target is persuaded or moved by your words. +## Spending Willpower +Even if a character's Resolve is overcome, they may still have an opportunity to deny the influence. If the influence is trying to change how they feel, such as by creating, destroying, or changing their intimacies, they may spend a point of willpower to: +- Stop a new intimacy from being created. Although the character is moved, they just can't afford to invest themselves in a new person or cause. +- Stop a major or defining intimacy from being weakened. Even though the influence was convincing, the character just has too much invested in the intimacy to give up now, even if they want to. +- Reject a successful inspire action. The character uses their force of will to deny their swelling passions. +## Decision Points +Refusing successful influence to make the character do something is trickier. When a character fails to resist such influence with their Resolve, they enter into a special state called a Decision Point. + +In the Decision Point, the player must choose an intimacy and explain how it justifies resisting that specific influence. The intimacy they choose must be of equal or greater intensity than the intimacy which supported the influence roll, and it can't be the one that strengthened their Resolve against the roll in the first place -- the influence already overcame that particular source of reluctance when it beat their Resolve. + +If those requirements are met, and if the GM accepts the player's argument for why one of their intimacies would make them reject the influence, then the character may spend one willpower point to resist the influence roll. Otherwise, resistance is impossible. +## Lengthy Debates +Sometimes after a character has spent willpower in a decision point in order to reject influence, the initiate will return with a new or stronger argument. When this happens, the initiate is engaging the reset rules for social actions. If the same issue is being argued as a result, the target may not use an intimacy which boosted their resolve against the initial roll. After all, that logic was not enough to stop them from being forced in the decision point in the first place. To boost their resolve against the initiate's second attempt, they must find another intimacy to raise their resolve -- or use the one that allowed them to reject influence in the decision point. Remember that according to the rules of decision points, the intimacy a character uses to raise their resolve cannot be invoked in the decision point. This rule continues to apply throughout the story -- as long as the initiate can find new angles with which to demonstrate the rightness of her persuasion, they can cause their target to use up all of their valid excuses over the course of a story. When a character has no valid intimacies with which to enter a decision point, beating their resolve will finally convince them to agree with the initiate's arguments. +## Unacceptable Influence +There are limits on what can be achieved with social influence. No amount of charisma is sufficient to talk someone into suicide, or convince a die-hard patriot to betray their cause. If a request is so antithetical to the nature and personality of its target that it cannot possible succeed, it is said to be unacceptable influence. A character targeted by unacceptable influence may reject it outright without spending willpower, even if their resolve would not normally be high enough to defend against it. A player can still choose to have their character follow the course of action but forward by unacceptable influence, but only because they think it makes sense -- the character cannot be coerced into doing it. + +Unacceptable influence includes: +- Any instill action to strengthen or weaken an intimacy which doesn't exploit an appropriately strong intimacy to do so. +- Any persuasion attempt which doesn't exploit an intimacy strong enough to support the proposed task. +- Any bargain attempt which fails to offer a properly enticing incentive or threaten action which is insufficiently threatening. +- Any influence that would cause a character to kill themselves, or to do something that they know would result in their certain death. +- Any influence that would cause a character to completely abandon or end one of their defining intimacies is unacceptable. +- Any seduction attempt that violates a character's sexual orientation (as defined by the player, or by the GM in the case of NPCs) is unacceptable. +# Next Section +[[05 🔵 Social Complications|05 🔵 Social Complications]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/05 🔵 Social Complications.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/05 🔵 Social Complications.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..783e4f3 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/05 🔵 Social Complications.md @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +Previous Section: [[04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls|04 🔵 Resisting Influence Rolls]] +# Social Complications +A number of considerations may arise when winning friends and influencing people. +## One Target vs Multiple Targets +Much of the time, an influence roll only affects one character. Sometimes, however, a character may wish to make a single influence roll against multiple characters. The can choose to target only a select group, or to apply influence roll against anyone who hears them. However, people find it easier to ignore arguments that are not directly addressed to them. Whenever an influence roll targets more than one character, it suffers a -5 penalty. + +Because the different targets of an influence roll can have varying passive Resolve scores, the success or failure of the action is determined separately for each target. +## Written Social Actions +The written word can be used to persuade or manipulate others just as easily as speech. Characters who wish to convey influence through a letter, pamphlet, book, or other written work do so as a written social action. The time taken to create a writing missive varies based on the form and length of the work. The GM decides how long it takes, with a minimum time of five minutes in most cases. Likewise, the time needed to read the missive is decided by the GM based on length. + +The skill used when rolling for a written social action is always Culture. When a character reads the message, compare the result of the roll to the target's passive Resolve to determine if it succeeds, as with normal influence rolls. Written social actions can be written to apply either against a single intended reader or against anyone who reads them, with the usual effects for targeting multiple characters. +## Gestures and Body Language +When a character attempts to communicate through gestures, appearance, and body language alone, the target of such silent influence adds a +2 to their passive Resolve. This is normally only useful for attempts at intimidation or seduction, but players are free to be creative and think up other applications. Many things are impossible to communicate silently. No amount of handwaving or quirked eyebrows can explain the intricacies of court politics. +## Overturning Influence +Character's are generally loathe to abandon a course of action once they've set themselves upon it, and so overturning existing social influence with additional social influence is difficult. First, a character who has already been persuaded to do something receives a +5 bonus to their passive Resolve against any influence that would cause them to abandon or disregard that persuasion. This bonus stacks with the intimacy bonus from a relevant intimacy. Second, a petitioner who wishes to overturn existing persuasive influence must spend a point of willpower before making their argument and roll. + +If the contradictory persuasion succeeds, the targeted character may use a decision point to resist by citing a conflicting intimacy, without spend a point of willpower to initiate the decision point because it's easier to stand by a hard fought decision than to abandon it and reverse yourself. Conversely, if a character wants to abandon their present course and accept a new influence, the character must spend a point of willpower and cite the intimacy which was used to change their mind. +# Next Section +[[06 🔵 Retrying Social Actions|06 🔵 Retrying Social Actions]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/06 🔵 Retrying Social Actions.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/06 🔵 Retrying Social Actions.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..dc0518e --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/10 🟡 Encounters/02 🔵 Social Encounters/06 🔵 Retrying Social Actions.md @@ -0,0 +1,17 @@ +Previous Section: [[05 🔵 Social Complications|05 🔵 Social Complications]] +# Retrying Social Actions +When a character fails a social action they cannot simply repeat their old arguments and expect a different result.

Once these conditions are met, the GM resolves the activity following the resolution rules listed in the activity's description. + +If a PC has more downtime available than their chosen activity requires, they can continue to pursue the same activity for a longer period or switch to a different downtime activity. + +A GM can award periods of downtime at the end of an adventure or when story objectives are met--just like they award experience or treasure. +## Time +Each downtime activity lists the minimum amount of downtime that must be spent to make significant progress towards that activity. Typically, activities require at least one week of downtime, but some only require one or more days. +## Cost +Many downtime activities require the PC to spend coin. An activity's descriptions includes any monetary costs required to pursue them. +## Resolution +Each downtime activity includes instructions for resolving that activity. For example, many activities require a PC to make an ability check to represent the overall success of their time spent engaged in the chosen activity. +## Using Downtime in your Games +You can handle downtime activities in two ways: during the game session or between game sessions. +### During the Session +When you use downtime activities during a session, the characters are usually in a safe environment, not actively adventuring, and outside concerns are not immediately pressing. Time flies as days and weeks are spent working on personal goals. This time can be difficult to reconcile and even undesirable for some players who feel an immediate threat or a time sensitive concern. In addition to the attention paid to time spent, downtime activities can take some actual playtime to fully run their course. One way you can manage this is by calling for initiative and having everyone enter in a turn order. As you take turns in this way, each turn comprises a single week rather than the 6 seconds of a standard combat encounter. +### Between Sessions +You can use downtime activities to keep your players engaged in the game even if they miss sessions or sessions are less frequent than the group might like. Most downtime activities require minimal effort to narrate and play out and instead employ bookkeeping and dice calculations to complete. It is fair for GMs to require players to use a dice rolling application or some other means of honest reporting of dice results to maintain fairness. Using downtime activities in this way can keep everyone interested and helps create a living campaign. +# Next Section +[[02 🟡 Carousing]] \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/11 🟡 Downtime Activities/02 🟡 Carousing.md b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/11 🟡 Downtime Activities/02 🟡 Carousing.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..fc26cf7 --- /dev/null +++ b/Version 1/Chronicles of Fate/11 🟡 Downtime Activities/02 🟡 Carousing.md @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +Previous Section: [[01 🔵 Downtime]] +# Carousing +You can spend downtime blowing off steam and making new friends.

The GM describes what the world look like, introduces obstacles of PCs to overcome, and portrays all the nonplayer characters (NPCs) who challenge or interact with the PCs. + +The GM either invents the world and events of the game from scratch or uses the elements of a pre-written adventure called a "module" to set the scene for players each time they play. +#### Role of a Player +A player's role is to portray their PC well.
