Reminder (Trumps) (READ THIS PLEASE)

[logan9a]

Place Trumps - not all that stable. People Trumps - more stable.

Keep that in mind!



Also - added to basic Trump power:

Person must have first walked Pattern (or Logrus) to USE the trump (at this level). Note - the person must have walked Pattern (or Logrus) to have a Trump made OF them.

Trump level 1 power, more added on bottom for clarity:

NOTE - YOU MUST HAVE PATTERN AS A PREREQUISITE TO THIS

Trump basics - you can (if paint) make trump paintings or (if sketch) make trump drawings. You can talk through an open Trump contact or pull people through. (This is a teachable skill.)

Person must have first walked Pattern (or Logrus) to USE the trump (at this level). Note - the person must have walked Pattern (or Logrus) to have a Trump made OF them.

If they have done so, then anyone with the Trump skill can teach it, just like the spells except you have to demonstrate it.

You need to make all three rolls to impart the knowledge.

You have to know someone intimately to make a card of them or have them pose for you.

Sketches are one shot but quick to make. One shot for either locations or people - plus you have to use it within a day.

At this level, it creates a ‘hologram’ even to talk to people. Not great for ‘stealth missions’.

This is NOT fast for making, going through, etc. Minute or two to go through.

BF cannot go through this!!

Trump: If you make a Trump of someone who hasn’t walked Pattern then they can’t use it and you can’t go there to them but you can talk to them. (If they don’t know what is going on, they just think they’re going crazy). They can talk back.

Once trump contact is made if you move away from holograph it fades out (at this level)

You can only keep this communication open for three rounds.

Takes two minutes to open and go through a Trump contact/card.

To teach it you must do painting, trump making and teaching (no sketching).

At this level, if someone changes their appearance significantly, the Trump is fucked. (Broken forever unless they change back).

Note: If a trump is made of a place and that place changes ‘enough’ (in the GM’s opinion) the Trump loses it’s ‘mojo’. Likewise (at this level) with a person. If they change enough (shapeshifting, etc) the card is rendered useless.

Also, if a place is always changing, you cannot make a Trump of it.

Note - you have to be able to freely move forward a meter or so to use a Trump whether someone is extending a hand to you or you are trumping into a new place. If a person is chained (but hands are free) they can pull through people who move.

Note: For all trump stuff - this assumes you have nice quite place, full concentration, etc.

To make a Trump of something you need to be within 3m of the person or place for awhile undisturbed.

To actually use the Trumps you must be able to see it - it is a visual thing. Unless the GM judges there is enough light, it simply does not work. Note that ‘augmented vision’ may not allow you to see it well enough - example ‘night vision goggles’ are insufficient.

Note that a trump card can be at minimum the size of a normal Tarot card but at maximum if could be a very large painting. Most people prefer to make it as small as possible for mobility and storage.

You can’t move the location a trump is to or it breaks the trump (ie shipping container if a Trump is made to it and you move the shipping container, it breaks the Trump. Also, Trumps to PLACES rapidly break. Trumps to people break if the people RSI change.

No - it doesn't work. I'll adjust the description and repost - good catch!
