[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 6398495, member: 6696971"] 1) A hard move against you as damage from your Master is sufficient for your first complication from your DD @ 6-. 2) On your The Riddle of Steel to Discern Realities, the earned answer to your question of "what is the Master about to do" is: He is without mercy. a hardened warrior of a millenia's worth of brutal warfare and the sole responsibility of relentlessly training the next generation of your people's elite, eldritch warriors. He has worked feverishly to instill an utterly spartan ethos within his students of "Only the Strong Survive." He believes that morality and compassion have no place in warfare. It is a sickness. One that he knows you possess and he expects you to be distracted by and work to save your companion. The moment you do so, he will attack ferociously. You take + 1 when Making a Move related to this foreknowledge. 3) On your second complication from your Defend @ 6-, you eat 1d4 environmental damage (no armor applies). Lets call it morale damage as you futiley watch your ally slip from your grasp toward imminent peril. Roll the damage and apply it to your HP total, please. What are you doing? If you're going to DD to try to rescue her, go ahead and roll it (Con if you're going to swim for it). You'll definitely eat some rocks on a 7-9 but you'll get her and neither of you will go over the edge in the waterfall which is at about Far Range. If you can come up with some awesome, "quick thinking" plan, you can use Int for your DD. On a 6-...look out. You'll also need to roll some kind of DD to avoid your Master's attack, of which you can take + 1 (earned from RoS) to do so. If you don't attempt to rescue your companion, she's toast. Do so and you open your up to a potentially lethal barrage...which is the point, of course. Decisions, decisions. Let me know what you plan to do. [/QUOTE]
