Features

Passives

    The Advisor can be spotlighted up to three times per GM turn. Spend Fear as usual to spotlight them.

    If the Inventor dies, the Advisor immediately transforms into the Last One.

Actions

    Spend 2 Fear to unleash streaks of magic flame in all directions. All targets within Far range must succeed a Finesse reaction roll or take 9d10+6 magic damage.

  • Singularity
    fear 1

    Spend a Fear to transform the Advisor into a human-shaped black hole. While in this form, the Advisor is immune to magic damage, and any creature within Very Close range of him must make a Strength reaction roll. On a failure, they take 7d6+3 magic damage and lose a Hope.

    While in this form, the Advisor cannot move, nor cast Spectral Specter or Maelstrom Violet. The form drops if the Advisor takes Severe physical damage.

  • Spectral Specter
    stress 1

    Mark a Stress to turn the Advisor spectral until he makes an action roll targeting another creature. While spectral, the Advisor can float and pass through solid objects, and is immune to physical damage. Note that the Advisor is not invisible; other creatures can still see him while in this form.

Reactions

  • Eye for an Eye
    stress 1

    When the Advisor takes damage, mark a Stress to immediately deal the same amount of damage to the attacker.

  • Momentum
