Fallen Ancestor
VoidTipos SpiritualInterpersonalDescrição
“This is unacceptable.” The powerful samurai stood, almost posing, as the last sunlight filtered through into Kaiu Namio’s room. “You are a pitiful excuse for a Crab, let alone a Kaiu. Your works collapse. Your weapons fail.” Namio had heard it all before. Endlessly. All his life. His cheeks burned in shame.
The figure turned, and the light shifted as it passed through its clothing. “You know what you need to do to regain honor for yourself and your family. Our family.” It beckoned to a pile of papers. “All of my records are there. All I have learned of the ways others were too stubborn to accept. You need but use them, and the power I possessed will be yours.”
Namio reached for one and began to read.
Efeitos
The following apply to a character with the Fallen Ancestor anxiety:
Your ancestor fell to Jigoku’s seductive call, giving their name to an oni or committing a terrible atrocity. Now their spirit calls to you from Jigoku’s maw, tempting you into following them down the same dark path.
After performing a check that involves the spirits or your family history (such as a Theology [Void] check to perform a family ritual or a Sentiment [Void] check to show mercy to a wounded opponent), you receive 3 strife. If this is the first time this has occurred this scene, gain 1 Void point.
