Trying my hand at my first custom move. In my setting, bards are a common place means of entertainment and news. Through a seires of events one of my PCs is an illustrious fighter with a famous reputation, but not all of her songs/rumours are positive. In some taverns, the ballad of the “Incompetent Gladiator” has the patrons rolling on the floor!
Don’t You Know Who I Am?!
When you try to cite songs of past exploits or your reputation to gain favour with someone roll+Nothing.
On a 10+, they’ve heard the songs of your dauntless skill and bravery and are wowed by your derring do. Take +1 forward. Tell us what they’ve heard.
On a 7-9, choose one:
-They’ve heard of you, but it wasn’t in the most favourable light. Whatever you did, it was foolish/scandalous/embarrassing. Still, at least it was entertaining. Take +1 forward. Tell us what they’ve heard.
-Your deed may be mighty, but your publicity needs some work. This person has never heard of you.
On a 6 or less, they’ve heard of you, but it was nothing good. Perhaps they’re an old rival stoking a grudge, or they’ve only heard of your brutal, murderous ways. Tell us what they know.
