Rules/Custom Conditions
These are the custom Conditions and Tilts for From Dusk Till Jawn.
Conditons
Chronic Agony (Persistent)
As per the Agony Tilt, however, the Condition does not fade, as it arises as the drawback for a supernatural power or from an extended physical injury or illness.
Resolution: The character sheds the supernatural power. The illness or injury is cured or healed.
Tilts
Agony
Personal
Description: The character suffers beyond the pain usually expected for her injury after circumstances subject her to brutal or especially well-placed injuries, devastating illnesses, noxious chemicals, or debilitating supernatural effects.
Effect: Pain wracks the character's body, causing her to either prioritize her actions or struggle desperately to complete them. She must choose between either taking only one action per turn (including Dodging or moving), or suffering double wound penalties for all actions and moving at half Speed.
Causing the Tilt: The following injuries inflict this Tilt:
- Any injury from poison, acid, illness or burning which inflicts total lethal damage in one scene in excess of Stamina.
- Additional injury to a body part already affected by a called shot or personal Tilt such as Blinded or Leg Wrack.
- Specified supernatural powers may inflict this condition due to system overwhelm.
Ending the Tilt: Healing the injury ends the Tilt immediately. The player may roll Composure + Stamina, reflexively, to attempt to suppress her pain and end the Tilt. Alternately, the player may expend a Willpower to suppress her agony and act freely. This Tilt fades at the end of the scene if not resolved.
