Yo! I want to hunt for some monster.


The Flake
Alec Brown

22-year-old man, wide eyes, casual clothes

Charm: +1

Manipulate Someone

Cool: -1

Act Under Pressure, Help Out

Sharp: +2

Investigate a Mystery, Read a Bad Situation

Tough: 0

Kick Some Ass, Protect Someone

Weird: +1

Use Magic


Luck: ♣♣
Harm : ♥♥♥|♥♥♥♥
Unstable: ♢
Experience: ♠♠♠

Spoiler: Alec’s Moves


Often Overlooked:
When you
act all crazy to avoid something
, roll +Weird.
- On a 10+ you’re regarded as unthreatening and unimportant.
- On a 7-9, pick one: unthreatening or unimportant.
- On a miss, you draw lots (but not all) of the attention.

Contrary:
When you
seek out and receive someone’s honest advice
on the best course of action for you and then
do something else instead,
mark experience. If you do exactly the opposite of their advice, you also take +1 ongoing on any moves you make pursuing that course.

Sneaky:
When
you attack from ambush, or from behind,
inflict +2 harm.

Spoiler: Weaponry
-Big knife (1-harm hand)
-Watchman’s flashlight (1-harm hand)
-guitar-string Garrote (3-harm intimate)

Luckily, it's just a chorus part at the beginning. Walking out singing the parts about the witch being dead. Can't quite do the full production value of a big entrance as Glinda but, what the heck, it should still be good. Can't believe this local theater got the rights to Wicked anyway.

Is this a copyright issue? Who knows?

Original Roll String: 2d6 (STATIC)
2 6-Sided Dice: (4, 2) = 6

I got scared and decided to read up on these monsters, since knowledge is power. (should I add that to my sheet?)

Rolling +weird
Original Roll String: 2d6+1
2 6-Sided Dice: (4, 5)+1 = 10

I learned something important about where the supernatural creatures come from if it's a miss.

Alec looks at the others.
"So, are we going to talk about the weird stuff going on recently?"
He looks nervously then yelps out excitedly
"It's monsters! Monsters, real life monsters!"

"I don't doubt you spoke with her. No one believed me for years but this town is full of supernatural oddities."
Alec said to Gabbie,
"I met a werewolf, in human form, of course. He was was good guy, hashtag not all werewolves and stuff. He did turn into a wolf as he left, though."
Alex said, looking into the distance a bit.

He blinks and thinks for a second,
"Wait, did you say weird snake thing? That's... not a werewolf."
He thinks for a second and says,
"What's this snake doing?"

"We should also check the theater, where the person vanished from for clues, right?"

Do we post questions with the roll or roll alone?

Alec walks up and says
"Hello, we are looking into it, clearly the superior choice is us four rather than the police. Could you help us?"

What happened?
Where did it go?

And I believe I get one that is outside of all the questions, so, my question there would be Where can we go to get clues which may not be immediately obvious?
