DFRPG / Re: Character concepts
« on: October 21, 2010, 10:12:50 AM »
I have one concept codenamed WereGremlin.
It includes Feeding Dependency (Food) and Involantary Change (Eat after sunset). Can be a fun.

I have some situations and i need some clarifications.
Main question is — where FP go after (to PC, NPC or GM)?
1) PC invoke _his_ aspect in conflict versus NPC.
2) PC invoke NPC aspect in conflict versus NPC.
3) PC compel NPC via aspect.
4) PC compel NPC via consequence.
5) PC self-compel via consequence. ("I realy need to see a doctor") Do FP generation realy occurs in this situation?

Number 3 is easy i think FP goes to NPC, but others.... Im kinda not realy sure.

as i understand it: if you have a deal or agreement with the queens, they can force you to do anything as they have power over you
(click to show/hide)
, and this deal does not have to be about the knight's mantle.
Not just deal or agreement give Mab this power it`s
(click to show/hide)
. Check YS274 "Oaths, Bonds and Bargains".

Papa Gruff, you help is best. But one grey area still remains in my brain
Quote from: Papa Gruff on October 11, 2010, 11:36:06 AM
As the WCV is of house Raith he decides to incite the emotion "Lust" upon the TC.To do so he has to place a maneuver using deceit.
Emotion-Touch trapping says: "You may be able to prevent the victim from taking other actions
as well if you do this as a block instead of as a maneuver."
So grey call:
If WCV block via Incite Emotion can he feed?
Or WCV can only feed on "maneuvered" emotions?

Okay, no free tag only invoke. Clear enough.
Beat grapple block before feed+incite. Clear enough.

WCV might be able to invoke it... but i really don't see any useful way to do it. It's an aspect denoting a disadvantage towards TS...
Invoking aspect to justify "touch" context, thus getting an additional +2 bonus on Incite Emotion.

Towards the last question: No! Two aggressive actions as part of one exchange are out of the question. First the one, then the other.
Originaly i too think "No", but:
1)  in Emotional Vampire stated Feed on Emotion and Incite Emotion can be combined in one action
2) In Incite Emotion stated "can be used as maneuver or block".
And this 2 confuses my mind. And if we remember books block+feeding in one time clearly in story.

I need some clarification about some situation.
Let`s presume we had Troll Scion (TS) and WCV going in melee.
TS initiating grapple by maneuver via Fists and creating Aspect "Gotcha!" on WCV.
And now is a tricky question: Can WCV initiate feed+incite emotion on TS by tagging this "Gotcha!" aspect?
And if he can... do he also can make in one action Block from Incite Emotion by Emotion Touch and Attack from Emotional Vampire by Feeding Touch?

Because if he can... it so mean  ;D

Yep, every time a disadvantage of being your type of critter comes up, it's a Compel of your High Concept, even if it's due to a disadvantage like a Catch. Some of them aren't Compels you can buy off, but you always get the Fate Point.

So, my High Concept is a Wizard of the White Coucel. I trying to kill a human with pistol instead of my magic, because im affraid breaking LoM. This is selfcompel against my High Concept or not?
Im kinda lost in here.

Deadmanwalking, great response! Thanks!

If you want to duplicate the ability to take Torment to get bigger, scarier, Apocalyptic Forms, pick a few powers and let the character acquire them at will via the Temporary Powers rules on YS p. 92, but taking points of 'sponsor debt' in the form of nasty, vicious compels instead of spending Fate Points (and only by taking such debts).
Yeah, that was what im thinking after i read "Temporary Powers" in YS. Nasty and storydriven stuff.

DFRPG / Demon: The Fallen template to Dresdenverse.
« on: June 21, 2010, 09:39:49 AM »
Im running a game of DtF and trying to figure out Fallen template for DFRPG.
In WoD we have several innate powers that each Fallen has such as:
Immunity to Mind-Control, Immunity to Possesion, Resistance to Illusion, Resistance to Lethal Damage, Healing Physical Damage, Invocation and Supernatural Awarenes.
In Dresdenverse, i think, it will look like this:

Marked by Power [-1]
Human Guise [-0]
Feeding Dependency [+1] (Faith) - Fallen angels need Faith to survive as a sentinent being. If all Faith is lost, they turns to rampaging,selfish, driven by Torment demons. Thus, if Hunger stress track is full they need to reap some Faith from mortals or drive self right to the Gates of Hell. Fallen can swap their physical stress track with hunger stress track (this represent Healing Physical Damage ability).
 Feeding Dependency affect next abilities:
Inhuman Toughness[-2]
Inhuman Recovery[-2]
The Sight [-1]
Sponsored Magic *

Refresh [-5] on innate powers only, without evocation (magic) and apocalyptic form (more magic :)) is a kinda tough. So i will be gratefull for a little thought out of the box. Anyone?
