“Heavy loads stone slung over shoulders, workers climb up the logs leading to the low-ceilinged cave leading to Kisima’s tomb. It’s not an easy climb, but the only other point of ingress, a stone shaft rising more than 70 feet to the surface, doesn’t leave a better option.”

I’m mulling over a martial artist move based on the cliche that a gang of bad guys only attacks the martial artist one at a time, but I can’t quite get my head around the verbiage. Thoughts?

Ran the second session of Man Day Adventures’ hot jungle action this past Saturday. I’ll get a longer write-up written up and posted eventually. Mack Corkindale, the druid, suffered horribly after getting his arm caught in a crocodile’s jaws. He blew the Last Breath roll, but the move notes that Mack “marked as Death’s own and you’ll cross the threshold soon.” Grister, the party’s spellslinger, revived Mack. His arm couldn’t be saved.
But now Mack is “marked as Death’s own”. What will the heroes do?

Situation: The heroes must convince a king and his court, all of whom are giants, to take a stand either for or against a course of action. I definitely don’t want the situation to be resolved with a single parley move, but I’m not sure a custom move to simulate the give-and-take action of a existential debate is doable. Thoughts?
