She was hoping to direct the undead creature’s attention to their other potential foe, but a good look at that cliff reveals the dubiousness of that plan. A better plan might be to do the opposite. After all, is that not Pritchard’s own plan? Otherwise, why in the many hells did he go forward into that copse? Twyll looks for a way to direct the wolf pack at the shambler, rather than at themselves, hopefully before her feet are completely numb.—CHAMELEONWhen you you use your surroundings to avoid suspicion or trouble, roll +WIS: on a 10+, hold 2 Guile; on a 7-9, hold 1 Guile and the GM reveals an Unwelcome Truth that cannot be resolved by spending Guile.

He retrieves it and presses it to his nose and mouth with one hand to ward off the horrific stench of decay.DEFY DANGERWhen danger looms, the stakes are high, and you do something chancy, check if another move applies.

Success!Seeing both the animated skeletal remains of the wolf pull itself from the riverbank to threaten his flank and the great animated mound of the Shambler before him, PRITCHARD recognizes his position between the proverbial rock and hard place. Panic begins to set in. But then panic gives way to dark desire. And a certainty that should he indulge that devilish impulse emanating from his breast, he can extract himself from an untenable situation. Without further ado, Pritchard lowers his head forward, thrusting it outward, and growls at the approaching undead wolf, “Revenge! Give in to your desire for revenge against the Thing that slayed you!”INFLAMEWhen you unleash your BRAND and incite an individual to violent action (near), you may erase 1 charge to roll +CHA: on a 10+, they must pick 1 from the list below:+ Act as you suggest, without doubt or fear, dealing +1d4 damage while they do so.+ Resist, but suffer painful burns (b[2d4] damage, ignores armor).On a 7-9, the GM chooses: either (1) they lash out at you but suffer painful burns (b[2d4] damage, ignores armor, wrong-foot) or (2) You draw unwelcome attention or put yourself in a spot. The GM will tell you how.When you Inflame someone and they are killed by your brand or kill one or more living beings as a result, mark 1:<s>O</s> O O OWhen you make the last mark, gain BURNING HATREDPritchard spends his single charge of Burning Brand to use Inflame against the skeletal wolf, r3,5 +2 CHA = 10.
