Master of Fate
Rank Power Description
1
2 Shielded Thread Passive: +Rank Fate bonus against Slay effects. Consumes mana each time it is triggered.
3 Whispers of Fate Brush the threads of Fate with your fingers to prompt someone to make a different choice. The choice must be one that the target might reasonably choose to take and must be approved by the StoryTeller. The StoryTeller may optionally choose to provide a fixed list of possible choices for you to pick from. This functions as if it is a Diplomacy roll using the spell roll instead, however this is not an actual diplomacy attempt and may not contain reasoning or debate. This may not be used against any target involved in the strain of combat.
4 The Other Path Once per encounter, reactively change a target's movement action to arrive at a different destination point. Must succeed on a spell roll opposed by Mental Defense. The total distance moved must remain the same, and the new movement action choice must be a choice that the target could have reasonably chosen to make instead. The StoryTeller must approve of the new choice, and may make a standard action as if it never happened. In such a case, the target still retains the ability to take a different standard action from their new location. The StoryTeller may optionally choose to provide a fixed list of possible movement actions for you to pick from. This ability may be activated after the target's movement action and before or after the target's standard action, but must be used before anyone else takes an action. If the action is completed and initiative moves on, what has happened has already been woven into the weave of Fate and may not be changed.
5 Destined to Die Attempt to cut the strand of fate connected to a target. This functions as a Slay. The effect is repeated once per round for a total of 3 rounds, gaining a +1 Fate bonus for each round after the first. Costs 1 Story Point.
Weaver of Fate
Rank Power Description
1 Threads of Fate Achieving a critical success on any rolled action grants a Thread of Fate, which may be consumed to fuel abilities in this Line. A maximum of 1 Thread of Fate may be held at any time. Each unspent Thread of Fate expires 24 hours after being gained.
  • Mend Thread: Consume a Thread of Fate to negate the additional ill effects of a critical failure. This does not negate the failure, it just makes a critical failure into a normal failure. This may be used on another Fated's critical failure within range.
2 Thread Steps Threads of Fate may additionally be spent on the following:
  • Ready Step: Consume a Thread of Fate to gain a Rank increase to initiative order. This persists through the current encounter until any other initiative altering event occurs, such as a delayed action or readied action. 1 Mana
  • Quick Step: Consume a Thread of Fate to gain a bonus of 2 to Speed for Rank rounds. 1 Mana
3 Thread Shift You may now carry a maximum of 2 Threads of Fate. Additionally you may spend Threads of Fate on:
  • Thread Shift: Reactively consume a Thread of Fate to ignore the first Rank of Dodge Reduction in an incoming attack. This effect persists for Rank rounds. 2 Mana
4 Bend Thread When a Fated within Rank x 10 yards uses a Story Point, you gain one Bend Thread effect, which may be consumed in the same was as Story Dice. A maximum of 3 Bend Thread effects may be held at a time. 3 Mana, mana cost is paid when Bend Thread effect is gained. Bend Thread effects expire after 24 hours.
