Chapter 14 by Zingiber Zingiber

Choose to PUT OFF or DISCOURAGE Rebecca and Roll +Ambition-2 (2d6+0).

PUT OFF Rebecca. On a Miss, take a CONSEQUENCE.

⚃⚀ + 0 = 5.

You escort a sniffling Rebecca out of House Draconis' receiving room and back to House Leontes, her hand clutching your arm all the way. Her palpable dismay seeps out of her from every pore. You see other students from Draconis and Leontes looking at you both with curiosity, concern, or scorn.

By the time you get Rebecca settled, you're feeling emotionally drained, embarrassed, and confused by the situation, but Rebecca manages to extract a promise that you'll see her tomorrow.

Shaking your head, you head back to House Draconis. Not the best way to start your term at the Boarbristle Academy.


You have 0 XP and a CONSEQUENCE (Emotionally drained; -1 on all rolls to resolve a Move).
Rebecca from House Leontes is your HANGER-ON.
Your sister Anastasia, also in House Draconis, is your FRIEND who owes you a FAVOR.

Some options:

  • ENCOUNTER a fellow member of House Draconis. A nice fling and your House Sex move of SEXUAL HEALING could really help redeem this day. Roll +AMBITION (+1)(+2, -1), or use your FAVOR from Anastasia for a +2 (+3 total) to get you hooked up with one of her friends.
  • ENCOUNTER Anastasia and talk things over with her. Roll AMBITION (+2) (+2, +1, -1) to ENCOUNTER your sister, and on a 10+, you may remove your CONSEQUENCE. Maybe she has other good advice for you.
  • Sleep on it and wake still in a state. Start your classes at Boarbristle Academy; with Rebecca in one of your classes, you have to DEAL WITH YOUR HANGER-ON (at an extra -1 for your CONSEQUENCE).
  • Something else?

What do you do?
