Roll +CUNNING (0) to TRY TO ACHIEVE A GOAL: Testing the Wards

Miss: Choose one as you fail to achieve Testing the Wards.

You and Asteria Hornbeam go through an abbreviated version of your previous attempt, looking for salients through the protective wards of House Leontes where a malicious witch or wizard cast the Sending that troubled you and Fay.

"All right, Morgan, let's have you try a Sending," the Assistant Warden directs. "Was it going to be giggle-imps?"

"Shade spiders," you say.

"Carry on, then," she says.

You prepare for the Sending, a rather more benign one than the one you drove away.


⚂⚂ + 0 = 6, Miss.

On a miss, choose one:

  • You weasel out of it or miss the opportunity. Cross off the GOAL. Roll to GET OUT OF TROUBLE.
  • You pass it along to someone else. Cross off the GOAL. Expend a FAVOR or owe your helper a favor (a new GOAL).
  • You can't quite get it accomplished. Keep the GOAL. If this is an assigned task or a FAVOR owed to someone, roll to ENCOUNTER them at -1.

Choose one and describe the consequences.
