    Questions

    The music and shouting are deafening. Any rolls relying on sound or delicate communication are made with Disadvantage.

Actions

  • It is just in jest

    The Jester play a prank on the party. It is a cruel joke and they must save roll presence or suffer 3d8 damage and mark a stress (on a success just mark stress).

    Questions
    • What was the joke? How did you succeed avoiding it?
  • The Blood Moon's Dance

    Spend 1 Fear. Every creature currently under "Join the Hunt" (including Adversaries) gains +2 to their Attack rolls but takes a -3 penalty to their Evasion until the start of the GM's next turn
