Hex

"Bad luck follows them like a stray dog."

Seer R2 · Tactic Psionic

Cost: 2 Strain
TN: 11
Tempo: T5
Steps: Yes
Resist: Yes

Effect

Curse a target within Near range for the rest of the scene. Whenever the target rolls, if any die shows a 1, they suffer a minor complication:

Weapons jam (Tempo 4 to clear)
Footing slips (−2 Speed until next turn)
An item falls from their person (GM’s choice)

Resist

ECHO + Resilience vs. your Channeling Sum negates.

Steps

+1 Strain to the target per triggered complication per Step (the target also takes Strain when the curse bites).

Special

The Hex is visible to those who know what to look for — a faint violet haze clings to the target. Other Psionics can identify a Hexed creature with an Awareness check (TN 11).
