'EGO' (Emile Campbell)
"Because I'm him." | The Chosen

A 4-Victory Novice Contractor played by Monday in Aletheskia

Report

'EGO' (Emile Campbell) is a conceited, juvenile loser who will risk his life to become the ultimate omnipotent reality bender o̶̖͐f̵̢̐ ̵̘̽t̶̺͛h̴̯͋e̷͉̅ ̵̭̃v̶̩͗o̴̖͂i̸̹͠ḍ̸̓ and free society of its spiral into helplessness, by creating a meritocratic world where anyone can better themselves and prove their worth.

He is 19 years old, lives in the den of trash, collectibles, and self-loathing he has constructed within the dingy attic of his parents' house (San Francisco, California), and often appears as a white American teenager with a distinct, unbearably smug expression at all times. He has the fringe black hair of a generic power fantasy protagonist, sharp gray eyes which portray a glint of something b̵͙̂ẻ̴̤y̶̜̔o̸͚̓n̸̎͜d̵̗̅, and a surprisingly athletic 5'7" / 140 lb. lean frame. His attire typically consists of tight-fit gloves, combat boots, and a tactical backpack worn over a full body buttoned coat.

'EGO' (Emile Campbell) lives in Aletheskia, a setting in the shadow of greater truth, where mankind clings to one false tenet: There's no such thing as monsters. His journal, The Progression MC, has 4 entries. His Questionnaire has 9 answers.

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

('EGO' (Emile Campbell) is unharmed)

(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.

Battle Scars

Dice penalties from Battle Scars do not stack with Stress

(Disfiguring) Incipient Corruption (The fingers of your left hand appear withered, as if undergoing the first stages of necrosis. A small price to pay for power, isn't it? You are at a -1 die penalty for any roll utilizing the affected hand.)

(Disfiguring) Mental Overload (Your brain is flooded with a sea of e̶l̴d̷r̸i̴t̸c̵h̶ knowledge, leaving it susceptible to being rattled by a well aimed attack. Called Shots to your head do +2 Damage [Requires Outcome 6]. Whenever you Exert your Mind, your eyes briefly flash a shimmering silver as if your Samson activated.)

(Disfiguring) Smug Bastard (Your face has a chronic, detrimentally smug expression that makes any social interaction much more difficult. All social rolls are made at +1 Difficulty. The Beautiful Asset is suppressed as long as you have this Battle Scar.)

Traumas

(Maddening) L'appel Du Vide Its call beckons at every moment, and you must bring yourself closer to that edge to fill its v̷o̸i̵d̸. When faced with the opportunity to perform an action in a more dangerous or exciting way, you must roll Self-Control to resist the impulse.

(Maddening) Savior Complex Your inner desire to aid people and improve the world has been warped with your sense of worth as a person, and your need to seek approval from others. Whenever you have the opportunity to help someone in need, you must succeed a Self-Control roll to resist the impulse.

(Maddening) Vindicative Vindication You tire of dealing with the senseless opinions of the masses, and refuse to take any shit from them lying down. Each time someone wrongs you or disrespects you in a major way, you must succeed a Self-Control roll to resist taking revenge.

Superiority

Whenever , regain one Source. Cooldown: one day

Circumstances

In Aletheskia

Finances: Average

From Assets and Liabilities

You can live stably off your money. You have access to $2,500 (or equivalent currency) per Contract.

Conditions

From Assets and Liabilities

Sensitive You're emotionally fragile, and very likely to be mentally and emotionally scarred by your experiences. You have four Limits, instead of the usual three.

Focused You’re cool under pressure. Stress from Mind Damage is reduced by 2.

Daredevil You have a penchant for taking wild, unnecessary risks, and somehow manage to survive them. You get +3 dice when attempting an action that is especially risky, and may ignore a single 1 on that roll.

Delusions of Grandeur You believe yourself to be the very best, one of the elite, superior to anyone else you meet. You must succeed a Self-Control roll in order to believe something or take an action which contradicts this delusion.

Biography

The Chosen

Reference art: Kurono Kyou / https://x.com/rip2_?lang=en on Twitter

Emile Campbell

Emile is a teenage genius, a prodigy who has developed an especially keen mastery over the world of physics and motion. However, despite his grand intelligence, he has always struggled with forming connections with other people. Consequently, he seeks validation through the one method he knows he's good at-- proving that he's superior and better than anyone else.

This has led him on a downward spiral of risk taking in the real world and repeated cheating and exploiting over online gaming. To satiate this ever growing hunger, his parents decided to gift him a rare NEO-GENSIS headset, allowing him an outlet to express himself and interact with others in a tangible, yet virtual context.
