Failure
WaterTipos MentalDescrição
Rina couldn’t handle letting her mothers down again. She scaled the cliffside, the blood from her scraped-up hands smearing over the rock. She could see the top now, only a hundred feet above her. She could taste success, see the approval in her mothers' eyes... Then, a handhold crumbled under her grip, and she began plummeting to the ground.
Rina woke with a start, her body covered in a thin sheen of sweat. I can’t fail, I can’t, I can’t*, she thought to herself as she shook away the dream.*
Efeitos
The following apply to a character with the Failure anxiety:
You are constantly worried about failing those to whom you have a commitment, such as family, friends, allies, a mentor, or a master. The thought of letting someone down when you have made a promise induces panic in you that manifests physically and can only be soothed by taking a step closer to accomplishing your goals.
After performing a check that shirks your obligations or works against keeping a promise you made (such as a Courtesy [Water] check to socialize pleasantly with no purpose when you have a duty to uphold or a Games [Water] check to gamble needlessly), you suffer 3 strife. If this is the first time this has occurred this scene, gain 1 Void point.
