Dragon: The Embers Core Book - MrGone's Character Sheets

Rip the Chain is an instant action,
but not every Dragon is capable of spending
4 Breath in a single turn. For those that are
not, they may drag out the activation over
multiple turns by sacrificing their Defense,
until they can pay the full price. Rip the
Chain requires physical contact to perform,
and extending the action for fueling
purposes does not change this. The Dragon
must maintain some form of touch with the
mark until she has paid the full price of the
Philosophy, and then she may roll Rip the
Chain.
Cost: 4 Breath, or 1 Breath over four turns
Dice Pool: Resolve + Empathy + Furnace +
Tears – Resolve - Furnace
Action: Instant
Roll Results
Dramatic Failure: The mark’s chains
defend themselves from the pull, drawing
Willpower from the Tears Dragon until she
is devoid of it or he is full. If she wishes to
try again, she must do so from scratch.
Failure: The chains give some slack, but do
not rip free. Provided she does not break
contact with the mark she may try again.
Success: Any derangements the mark may
be suffering are removed. The mark is also
drained of all of his Willpower points. The
mark’s Morality (or other relevant ethics
trait) score also drops two, or to zero if such
a drop would make his Morality negative.
Exceptional Success: Identical to success,
but Morality falls another step.

Those who flee from leadership’s call, then
plummet into rampages of dictatorial selfsatisfaction,
fall into the Schools of the Five
Evils. They are called Saintly Devil
Dragons, and these are their Philosophies.
Wrath
Wrath
The Philosophy of Wrath is founded
around the mass destruction of anything and
everything.
Force: Destruction
Yin: Ash
Karmic Backlash: Rampage. The
Dragon must spend every action he takes
trying to attack someone (or something in
destruction range). If nothing is in range,
she will attack herself, ripping at her own
body in a bloodthirsty frenzy. She only
calms down once she has either destroyed
her target (a person, a group of people, or a
town) or when her wounds are within certain
parameters (which cause her to flee). Those
parameters are determined by the level of
Wrath that she failed. While in a Rampage,
the Dragon can still manifest Aspects, but
cannot remove them.
Calling Calling the the Tempest Tempest ( (●) (
There is calm before every storm; a
silent sense of foreboding that whispers of
things to come. In the case of a Wrath
Dragon, that storm is her rage. Taking
advantage of the mortal flaw that is terror,
the Dragon creates an aura of protection in
the form of hesitation.
When a Dragon rolls Calling the
Tempest, those that would act aggressively
against her must roll Composure (+Furnace,
if they have it) first and succeed, or the
action suffers a penalty equal to the
Dragon’s proficiency in Wrath. This effect
lasts for the scene.
Cost: None
Dice Pool: Presence + Intimidation +
Furnace + Wrath
Action: Instant

Dramatic Failure: The Wrath Dragon falls
into a Rampage, until such time as her
primary target is felled or she suffers a
wound in her fifth-to-last Health slot.
