You open your eyes to find yourself sprawled on the floor, quite naked and quite uninjured. In fact, physically you’ve never felt better. You feel stronger, healthier, in better shape every possible way, and your thoughts are entirely your own. You are a Human Incubus (or Succubus).

1. Roll one die. Divide the result by two. In addition to restoring your PROWESS score to its initial human value, add the remainder. This is your new initial PROWESS score.
2. Repeat step 1 for your VITALS score.
3. Restore your LUCK to its initial value, but do not exceed it.

Elia is calling to you. She sounds very anxious, and out of breath. She must be hurt. You jump to your feet only to identify a significant problem concerning your relationship toward her as of now. She won’t necessarily see it clearly until the morning, but you are no longer quite the same Mortimer Halfheart you were when you two met. What do you do?

• Go to her aid anyway and explain things afterwards? Turn to 66.

• Hope she isn’t badly injured and leave her? Turn to 258.
