Initiative: 0 dice

Movement: 0 feet

Dash: 0 feet

Perception + Alertness: 0 dice

At the start of Combat, roll Initiative: Dexterity + Perception Difficulty 6.

Each round of Combat represents 3 seconds of near-simultaneous action.

It's my Turn

You get one Movement and one Action on your turn every Round of Combat.

Movement

Movement is taken immediately before OR after your Action. It cannot be split.
You may Move (0) feet for free. Minimum 5 feet.
You may Dash up to an additional (0 feet).
- Dashing penalizes your Action -1 die per 5 feet.
All-out Sprint: instead of using free Movement or Dash, you may spend your Action and roll Brawn + Athletics ( dice) Difficulty 6. You move (0 + (Outcome x 5) Feet).

Actions

Attack with your weapon or hands.
Evade by rolling to Defend or Dodge. Your Outcome is "spent" to reduce the Outcome of any incoming attacks until your next Action.
Activate a Power or use an Ability as normal.
Hold your Action by declaring an Action and a triggering event. If the event occurs before your turn on the next Round, you perform the Action.

I'm being attacked

If you have not yet spent your Action this Round, you may use it as a Reaction.

Reactions

Dodge by rolling Dexterity + Athletics ( dice) Difficulty 6. Your Outcome is subtracted from the attacker's.
Defend with your weapon by rolling its attack roll. Your Outcome is subtracted from the attacker's. Availability depends on weapon match-up (tap/hover).
Clash with the attacker using the same roll you would use to Defend. The higher Outcome (not contested) is treated as the result of a successful, undefended attack roll against the loser.

Desperate Defense

If you have already used your Action, you may Exert your Mind to perform a Reaction. Your next Round's Action receives a -2 dice penalty. You cannot Clash as a Desperate Defense.

Will to Survive

Once per Contract, you may reduce the severity of an incoming Injury up to 4 Severity levels (to a minimum of Severity 4). You take a point of Mind damage and suffer a Major Battle Scar that lingers after the Injury is healed, even with proper Stabilization.

If an attack's Outcome is positive after defense, it results in a new Injury with Severity = Outcome + Weapon damage - Armor

Injuries

(Reverend Zebadiah Paine is unharmed)

(TapClick for Severe Injury reference)

Injuries Severity 4+ cause a Battle Scar and require Stabilization

Stabilization is the Injury's main treatment, and each Injury can only be successfully Stabilized once

Unstabilized Injuries worsen by 1 Severity level every half hour

Proper Stabilization

Requires an advanced first aid kit for Severity 4 Injuries, a field surgery kit for Severity 5 Injuries, and a surgery theater for Severity 6+ Injuries.

Roll Intellect + Medicine, Difficulty equal to Severity

An Outcome of 1 or greater will Stabilize the Injury and stop its degradation.
Complete success (Outcome 4+) puts the Injury on track to heal clean: its Battle Scar heals with it.
Failed attempts can be retried at +1 Difficulty per failure.
On a Botch, the Injury's Severity increases by 1.

Makeshift Stabilization

Attempt a major treatment using insufficient or improvised medical equipment.

Roll Intellect + Medicine, Difficulty > Severity

(Difficulty based on materials and tactics used)

Any positive Outcome (1+) will Stabilize the Injury and stop its degradation.
However, any Outcome less than 4 increases the Injury’s Severity by 1. Botches also worsen its Battle Scar.
Regardless of Outcome, any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will persist after it is fully healed.
Failed attempts can be retried at +1 Difficulty per failure.

Self-stabilization attempts are rolled at +1 Difficulty.

Circumstances

In The Netherworld

Imprisoned: Trapped in the Netherworld

From Assets and Liabilities

You are trapped inside some form of prison or cage, and are only released temporarily to attend Contracts. At the end of each Contract, you will be returned to your prison. Your ability to do Crafting, make Moves, improve Abilities, and maintain a consistent inventory, are all significantly restricted, and you must get GM approval to attempt any of these things.

Outsider

From Assets and Liabilities

You are not an accepted member of society. You have no citizenship in any country or nation, and have no legally recognized forms of identification or licenses, making many elements of modern life impossible for you to attain. Making Moves to gain new Circumstances is significantly hampered by your outsider status, and in some cases may be completely impossible. Your Outsider status may occasionally cause GMs to give you new Loose Ends, at their discretion.

Conditions

From Assets and Liabilities

Avoidance You are so off-putting, that most people just avoid you. You may Exert your Mind to cause someone to ignore or avoid you in a social situation. Any Stealth rolls you might make as a part of this get +2 to their Outcome. Only works if your Charisma rating is 1.

Tough You can function under intense pain. Dice penalties from pain are reduced by 2. This includes Body penalty.

Clear Conscience You have a special knack for shrugging off traumatic experiences. Penalty does not apply to Trauma rolls you make, and you may Exert your Mind to automatically succeed.

Jaded Your emotions are deliberate and unshakable. You get +3 dice to resist any attempt to sway your emotions, and even if you are affected, you may Exert your Mind to cancel the effect. This includes the Fascinate and Emotion Control Effects.

Light Sleeper You are able to function with less sleep than most people. You need only four hours of sleep per night, and any supernatural attempts to put you to sleep are rolled at +1 Difficulty.

Trained Reflexes Your life has been filled with tight situations and violent encounters, so when the fighting starts, you act quickly. You get +3 dice to all Initiative rolls.

Loose Ends

Legacy Powers

The Sword of the Spirit - 1 Gift Signature Item Power

The revolvers, named Jacob and Esau, after the twin sons of Issac.

They appear as large six chamber, single action revolvers. Both are gray steel with hard maple grips, polished from oils in the Reverend's hands from years of use. Jacob has the inscription: "Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might" along the left side of the barrel, down to the receiver. It's brother, Esau, has the inscription: "Blessed be the Lord my strength which teacheth my hands to war" along the right side.

Passive. Always in effect. During a Downtime, you may recover your Revolvers - Jacob & Esau if it was lost or taken, or regenerate it if it was destroyed or damaged beyond repair. You may do this a maximum of Never times. Your chosen item must be an Object.

Enhancements

Indestructible: This item is indestructible as long as you're alive.
Palantir: If this Artifact is used by someone other than its creator, its creator is alerted and learns the user's appearance, direction, and distance at that moment. The creator may use a single investigation Effect on them once at any range.

Drawbacks

Codependence: This Artifact's creator must have it with them to have restful sleep. They cannot regain Mind or Source while separated from this Artifact.

Skin That Smokewagon - 1 Gift Firearm Mastery Power

The Reverend's two hand cannons rest easily in his palms. His cold blue eyes glint with excitement at the anticipation of rapturous bloodshed.

Passive, always in effect. Attacks with firearms will do +1 more damage. The target's Armor is Fully Effective.

Enhancements

Dual Wielding: You may wield a two-handed gun in one hand and receive no penalties when using a gun in your off-hand.

Drawbacks

- Type of Weapon: Revolvers

Breastplate of Righteousness - 1 Gift Armor Power

Bullets tear into the Reverend Paine and his body flares with an unearthly light. The damage seems lessened than you would have imagined from such a brutal onslaught. Depending on the actions taken recently by the Reverend, the color of the light may shift from a bright golden/white glow to an infernal red/black coruscate.

You have 3 Armor, which reduces incoming Damage. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. Passive, always in effect.

Enhancements

Spectral Plate: Your Armor protects you against Injury from non-physical sources as well.

Drawbacks

Focus: Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.
- Object: Revolvers
Unique Focus: This Power takes the form of a specific, unique item, which can be borrowed, lost, or stolen. You must use / wear this item as intended to use this Power.
- Focus: Jacob & Esau

Biography

-Believes he is dead and in Hell. With each act of God’s Righteous Fury against the evil and damned, he thinks he can buy his way into Purgatory. And then, maybe Heaven. When forced to visit the juncture worlds, he still thinks of himself as already dead, but God is putting him back on earth to perform certain tasks in His name.

-His prayers and actions are hollow and meaningless. He doesn’t quite believe his own gospel as he is still a Gunslinger at heart. Cold, ruthless and pragmatic. He thinks this is why he is still in Hell. He thinks with enough slaughter of the inhuman and wicked, his words will carry the weight of God.

-The ghosts of his past haunt him. Before he was Reverend Zebadiah Paine, he was a Gun-For-Hire named Sol Garrett. Unable to complete a contract for a powerful, mysterious entity he never met, he now finds himself trapped in the Netherworld. Even in Hell, you can’t run from your past.
