Adversary overview

A cunning fairy who makes deals with student adventurers

Spark Dust (Consumable)
Rarity: Common (Black Market)

Description: A shimmering, iridescent powder snorted or dissolved on the tongue. It provides an immediate, artificial euphoria and mental clarity, at a heavy cost to the body and long-term sanity.

Effect: When you consume a dose of Spark Dust during a scene, you immediately clear 2 Stress and gain a Temporary Experience (+2) called “Euphoric Focus” until the end of the current scene.

The Crash: As soon as the scene ends or wears off, the artificial high fades violently. You must immediately mark 3 Stress as the exhaustion and withdrawal set back in. Furthermore, if this crash pushes you to your maximum Stress capacity, you automatically become Vulnerable.
