Gestalt: A Roleplaying game of the loss of self. - Foolz!

It is used for one of the five following effects:- To rise up the Dice track, one die per expenditure- To donate or take a test without Limitation- To remove a point from any of the Vicissitude tracks- To change a single die to a d20 for a single check.- To force the DM to lower their magnitude (one per point) for a single check.Discord is the DM’s fate point pool, and he begins each session with just one. Whenever the DMspends a point of discord, all players gain a point of Unity, however they cannot spend thispoint the turn its generated to try and counter the DM, or visa versa (though they can spendpreviously earned points).Whenever a point of Unity is spent, the DM gets one Discord point.Unity can be spent retroactively, Discord can’t.Vicissitudes:This represents the gestalt double edged sword, you’re capable of awesome things, but it canreally suck.All vicissitude tracks can be substituted at a rate of 2:1 (e.g. a character takes 3 Soma damagebut can’t afford to, he can instead cop 6 damage in the soul) and can be substituted in part orin full.Soma:Soma is the representation of the body as separate from mind and spirit, but due to the natureof the gestalt, that doesn’t mean much. Considering that it’s existential metaphysics keepingyour fucked-up-ed-ness in one contiguous pile, things that fuck with your head can leavephysical scars. Remember, Soma represents how you view the physical self just as much as it isyour little fleshy cage keeping you alive.In short: any failure deals damage. Regardless of the source (In some ways this makes youreally soft as sharp words can leave sledgehammer wounds, while in others it means you canshrug off bullet wounds like they’re noting. DMs however should be reasonable, using a pool ofeighteen d12s for a your mom joke deserves the following table flip). Damage is inflicted indifferences, that is for every three points the DM trumps your failing roll by, add a single markto the Soma track. Failure always results in at least one Soma mark however.Maxing the Soma track basically leaves you a physical trainwreck. You can’t dominate the body,participate in actions and in essence, your turn is passed over as you can’t do anything otherthan be a little cheerleader on the sidelines. Other characters can dominate without having tocompete with you for dominance.What can’t you do with max Soma: ActWhat you can do with max Soma: Donate, accrue and spend Unity.
