PBF Scurry: Making your mark

(My eyes are bugging out, here.)

That’s what happens when you got to sleep in NZ and I am on a four and a half hour train ride …

I will remind you of the benefits you can use as well at this point.

Using Tags

A Beast can roll the Scurry Dice twice and take the higher result if they can convince the SM that any of their tags would be useful to their solution.

Using Skills

Once per scurry, a Beast can use their Skill to automatically resolve conflict with a success.

The rest of the time, they are regular tags.

Using Tools

All tools have a narratively sensible supply. There’s no specified amount (such as “12 grams of chalk”). However, the SM may ask a Beast to cross out a Tool tag as a consequence, to represent the tool breaking or running out.

Using Guts

Before resolving conflict, a Beast can describe a flashback to a scene in the past that gives them just what they need to solve the problem at hand, such as the perfect tool, or a convenient talent.

Using Guts resolves conflict with a success, but also marks 2 progress.

Hubert - Mortimer is swooping towards the nest but too fast. He is going to crash in to you. What can you do to stop him getting another bruise?

[I have advanced the clock a quarter as a result of the hijinx!]

Paging @Phil for Hubert’s reaction
