• War Cry

  Merit

  War Cry

  Effect: Your character can howl out sharply and shake opponents to the core. Her howls reverberate on both sides of the Gauntlet, quaking spirit-stuff and flesh alike. Roll Presence + Expression as an instant action. The howl affects a number of listeners of your choice equal to the successes rolled. Those affected suffer a –1 penalty to Defense and attack rolls, and –2 to Initiative for the remainder of the scene. A character may only be subject to this effect once in a given scene. Drawback: This Merit causes alert throughout the Hisil. Within three turns, curious spirits will arrive on the scene. Depending on the location, they may also be hostile.
  
   

Merit List Two

• Song In Your Heart

  Merit

  Song In Your Heart

  Effect: Your character sings, howls, and tells stories like none other. Her words echo and reverberate through listeners, and inspire them to learn from her tales. This Merit acts as the Inspiring Merit (see p. 111). Your character does not need to meet the prerequisites for that Merit, and it can only be used when singing, howling, or storytelling. Listeners may take the Inspired Condition (see p. 308) as a Persistent Condition, gaining a Beat every time they take a significant action inspired by your character’s tale.
  
   

• Resources

  Merit

  Resources

  Effect: This Merit reflects your character’s disposable income. She might live in an upscale condo, but if her income is tied up in the mortgage and child support payments, she might have little money to throw around. Characters are assumed to have basic necessities without Resources. The dot rating determines the relative amount of disposable funding the character has available, depending on your particular chronicle’s setting. The same amount of money means completely different things in a game set in Silicon Valley compared to one set in the Detroit slums. One dot is a little spending money here and there. Two is a comfortable, middle class wage. Three is a nicer, upper-middle-class life. Four is moderately wealthy. Five is filthy rich. Every item has an Availability rating. Once per chapter, your character can procure an item at her Resources level or lower without issue. An item one Availability level above her Resources reduces her effective Resources by one dot for a full month, since she has to rapidly liquidate funds. She can procure items two Availability levels below her Resources without limit (within reason). For example, a character with Resources •••• can procure as many Availability •• disposable cellphones as she needs.
  
   

• Fame

  Merit

  Fame

  Effect: Your character is recognized within a certain sphere for a certain skill, or because of some past action, or just a stroke of luck. This can mean favors and attention, but it can also mean negative attention and scrutiny. When choosing the Merit, define what your character is known for. One dot reflects local recognition or reputation within a confined subculture. Two dots means regional recognition by a wide swath of people. Three dots means worldwide recognition to anyone who might have been exposed to the source of the fame. Each dot adds a die to any Social rolls among those who are impressed by your character’s celebrity.   Drawback: Any rolls to find or identify the character enjoy a +1 bonus per dot of the Merit. If the character has Alternate Identity, she can mitigate this drawback. A character with Fame cannot have the Anonymity Merit.
  
   

• Striking Looks

  Merit

  Striking Looks

  Effect: Your character is stunning, alarming, commanding, repulsing, threatening, charming, or otherwise worthy of attention. Determine how your character looks and how people react to that. For one dot, your character gets a +1 bonus on any Social rolls that would be influenced by his looks. For two dots, the benefit increases to +2. Depending on the particulars, this might influence Expression, Intimidation, Persuasion, Subterfuge, or other rolls.   Drawback: Attention is a double-edged sword. Any rolls to spot, notice, or remember your character gain the same die bonus. Sometimes, your character will draw unwanted attention in social situations. This could cause further complications.
