Circumstances describe your situation.
Examples include enemies, wealth, notoriety, social status, contacts, fame, and imprisonment.
Because each Playgroup has its own setting, Circumstances record the Playgroup they were acquired in.
Conditions describe your state of being.
Examples of Conditions include curses, diseases, and impactful personality quirks.
Conditions are granted by Assets and Liabilities or by GMs based on the events of Contracts and Downtime activities like Moves, and Loose Ends.
Because Conditions may have GM-created systems, they also record the Playgroup they were acquired in.
Loose Ends will cause problems for you if you don't tie them up.
Examples of Loose Ends include enemies, debts, evidence, and promises.
All Loose Ends have a Cutoff that counts down each time you attend a Contract. When it hits zero, the Threat of your Loose End manifests, causing issues for your Contractor.
You cannot see the current values of your Loose Ends' Cutoffs, but you can take initiative and make Moves on your Downtimes to deal with them before time runs out.

I was an average exterminator, I went to work, I killed pests, I got paid, repeat. It was an easy job. Real easy. Well it was.
Ya’ see i WAS really good at my job till that son of a bitch Reticorp came into town. Yeah they were good at this job. Real good. Better than me even. They took out almost all the pests in MY town, killed all my business before it even started. Roaches, rats, possums. Didn't matter what it was, if you called Reticorp then .
I just wanted to get back at them y'know. Make them scared is all. Decided to break in some old tools. Something I wish I threw away now. It didn't take me long to get past security and get into the building. It looked so small from the outside, but as I was walking past some old pipes, dark hallways, old rusted tools that definitely shouldn't have been in this building I got a little wary. I tried to turnback but somehow the place became a maze always leading down.
As I kept climbing down I eventually came upon this… thing. It was like looking at what a pesticide is. Death itself green and swirling.
I can't. I can't tell you how long I looked at it. I can tell you one thing though. It looked back. It stared into me for however long I was staring. Watching every part of me. My every move. My breathing.
My soul.
I ran from that place. I left faster than I came in, I can't remember much. They must've caught me on the cameras though because ever since then I cant hold down a single job. Every single time I think I have something to hold me over I know it wont last cause of the fucking thing in Reticcorp came into town.
Reticorp is watching my every move. I just know it. They watched me lose my house, my family, my life and I promise that as long as I’m breathing, I'm gonna take whatever makes that thing in Reticorps basement die. Mark my words.
