Initiative: 0 dice

Movement: 0 feet

Dash: 0 feet

Perception + Alertness: 0 dice

At the start of Combat, roll Initiative: Dexterity + Perception Difficulty 6.

Each Round of Combat represents 3 seconds of near-simultaneous action.

It's my Turn

You get one Movement and one Action on your turn every Round of Combat.

Movement

Movement is taken immediately before OR after your Action. It cannot be split.
You may Free Move (0) feet. Minimum 5 feet.
You may Dash up to an additional (0 feet).
- Dashing penalizes your Action -1 die per 5 feet.
All-out Sprint: instead of using free Movement or Dash, you may spend your Action and roll Brawn + Athletics ( dice) Difficulty 6. You move (0 + (Outcome x 5) Feet).

Actions

Attack with your weapon or hands.
Evade by rolling to Defend or Dodge. Your Outcome is "spent" to reduce the Outcome of any incoming attacks until your next Action.
Activate a Power or use an Ability as normal.
Hold your Action by declaring an Action and a triggering event. If the event occurs before your turn on the next Round, you perform the Action.

I'm being attacked

If you have not yet spent your Action this Round, you may use it as a Reaction.

Reactions

Dodge by rolling Dexterity + Athletics ( dice) Difficulty 6. Your Outcome is subtracted from the attacker's.
Defend with your weapon by rolling its attack roll. Your Outcome is subtracted from the attacker's. Availability depends on weapon match-up (tap/hover).
Clash with the attacker using the same roll you would use to Defend. The higher Outcome (not contested) is treated as the result of a successful, undefended attack roll against the loser.

Desperate Defense

If you have already used your Action, you may Exert your Mind to perform a Reaction. Your next Round's Action receives a -2 dice penalty. You cannot Clash as a Desperate Defense or React more than once to a given Action.

Will to Survive

Once per Contract, you may reduce the severity of an incoming Injury up to 5 Severity levels (to a minimum of Severity 5). You also take a point of Mind Damage and suffer a Battle Scar as normal.

If an attack's Outcome is positive after defense, it results in a new Injury with Severity = Outcome + Weapon damage - Armor

Injuries

blow to the head

shot in the shin

(TapClick for Severe Injury reference)

Injuries Severity 4+ cause a Battle Scar or Equipment destruction and always require Stabilization

Stabilization is the Injury's main treatment, and each Injury can only be successfully Stabilized once

Unstabilized Injuries worsen by 1 Severity level every half hour

Proper Stabilization

Requires an advanced first aid kit for Severity 4 Injuries, a surgery setup for Severity 5 Injuries, and a surgery theater for Severity 6+ Injuries.

Roll Intellect + Medicine, Difficulty equal to Severity

An Outcome of 1 or greater will Stabilize the Injury and stop its degradation.
Outcome 4+ puts the Injury on track to heal clean: its Battle Scar heals with it.
On a Botch, the Injury's Severity increases by 1.
Failed or Botched attempts may be re-attempted at +1 Difficulty per failure.

Makeshift Stabilization

Attempt a major treatment using insufficient or improvised medical equipment.

Roll Intellect + Medicine, Difficulty > Severity

(Difficulty based on materials and tactics used)

Outcome 1+ will Stabilize the Injury and stop its degradation.
However, any Outcome less than 4 increases the Injury’s Severity by 1. Botches also worsen its Battle Scar if it caused one.
Regardless of Outcome, any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will persist after it is fully healed.
Failed or Botched attempts may be retried at +1 Difficulty per failure.

Self-stabilization attempts are rolled at +1 Difficulty.

Biography

Background: Davis Thauma was born into a family with a rich history of traditional toymaking. Growing up in Los Angeles, he inherited the family craft and developed a passion for creating enchanting and whimsical toys. His life took a profound turn when his younger sister, Olivia, fell victim to the exploitative practices of a powerful and unscrupulous billionaire. Olivia's disappearance, orchestrated by the billionaire to conceal his misdeeds, fueled Davis's determination to seek justice.

Defining Event: The mysterious loss of Olivia became a turning point for Davis. Driven by grief and a desire for retribution, he delved into the world of investigations, uncovering the dark secrets of corrupt billionaires. This tragic event transformed Davis from a simple toymaker into a vigilant crusader against injustice.

Current Pursuits: Davis Thauma now leads a dual life – as an unassuming toymaker crafting enchanting toys during the day and a covert crusader against unjust billionaires during the night. Balancing the mundane and supernatural, he uses his skills, allies, and the powers granted by The Contract to expose the dark underbelly of wealth and power in Los Angeles, all while striving to bring justice to those who have suffered at the hands of the corrupt elite.
