Will (Wis or Cha) - effects that challange a persons perceptions or beliefs. Potenical common reactions; -2 penalty to actions; dazed; back off in fear etc. Vs. Fort (Str or Con) - horrifying sensory shocks that could cause a physical reaction. Potencial common reactions; stunned (while vomiting for a round); falling prone dazed (fainting) Vs. Reflex (Dex or Int) - realisation of a horrific truth or accumulated mental strain. Potencial common reactions; insanity (you could use the disease track to add appropriate temporary insanities to PCs that could be cured over the course of a couple of days or become permanent if they got to the end of the track) Running a horror game I would also be tempted to add a mechanic for tracking madness points (for want of a better term). These could be used along a track that gave various penalties and bonuses as you drifted slowly into madness or started to become more attuned to the plane.</blockquote>
