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

Aspect. There is an invisible force that
prevents them from influencing the outcome.
The subject remains a Sworn Foe
until the matter of contest has concluded. If
both were competing for top student in a
three-week summer course, then the
interference penalty remains for those three
weeks. The Dragon may remove the penalty
at any time before that conclusion, though
such an act effectively calls off the
competition and thus the penalty cannot be
reinstated. Should the Dragon disband this
Aspect, however, the penalty is removed
until such time as she manifests it again (or
the contest ends, whichever comes first).
All who try to interfere in the contest
between Dragon and foe, be it to the
Dragon’s benefit or behest, suffer a penalty
to act equal to the points manifest in this
Aspect. If they wish to interact in ways that
would not influence the contest AT ALL, no
penalty is levied. Of course, the chance of
that is very, VERY slim. The Dragon may
spend one Willpower point to make this
force biased for the scene, removing the
penalty from those that would aid her.
Type: Sequential
Cost: 1 Willpower to make penalty bias for
the scene
Dice Pool: None
Action: Instant
While this Aspect is manifest, the Dragon
finds it difficult to control the volume of her
voice. She may have spurts of ridiculously
loud talking for no reason, and these spurts
increase in frequency when she is lagging in
the competition.
Beat Beat them them into into the the Ground Ground (Squire (Squire of of Blades)
Blades)
More the calling of a serial murderer,
this trait allows the Dragon to get charged
up about repeating the same motions,
instead of wearing down from exhaustion.
The luck of the draw makes their subsequent
tries more effective than their initial one.
Manifesting this Aspect at all
removes the penalties for successive
attempts (See the World of Darkness
Rulebook for information on successive
attempts, page 132). Instead, a bonus builds
for each successive attempt with a maximum
equal to the points manifest in this Aspect.
For example, a Dragon trying to reconstruct
a broken vase with “Beat them into the
Ground” 4 would start with a normal roll,
then be at +1 for the second attempt, +2 for
the third, and so on until the fifth attempt,
which would be at +4. Beyond that, the
bonuses do not increase further, but
successive attempts can still be made.
It is the repetitive nature of the
action that grants this bonus, so taking a
break erases the build-up. Also, removing
some of the manifested points will also
reduce the bonus, even if it has exceeded
that value.
Type: Sequential
Cost: None
Dice Pool: None
Action: Reflexive
While this Aspect is manifest, the Dragon
forms spikes of bone at the knees and
elbows. Though not particularly long, they
make clothes rest in peculiar ways and may
pierce fabric.
Pounce! Pounce! (Blades (Blades Joker)
Joker)
Lizards and frogs know how to jump,
with the latter so much more so than the
prior. With this trait, the Dragon’s body
adapts to better jump like a frog.
The Dragon’s forward jumping
distance becomes static: measured in yards
instead of feet, it is always Size + “Pounce!”
points. Her vertical jumping distance also
changes from feet to yards, but must still be
rolled (albeit with Pounce! in the dice pool).
In addition, she gains the ability to leap and
crush her opponents. The range of this
attack is equal to her forward jumping
distance.
