Q1 2019 Adventure cards

Post by Pender Lumkiss »

The Savage Rifts site makes use of the Adventure Deck, which provides some small but significant benefit when played. Novice characters draw one card per quarter; More experienced characters can draw and hold one card per rank (Seasoned is two, Veteran is three, etc.) but can still only play one card per quarter. (You can also buy extra cards with EP or get them by being a Patron - those don't count toward the hold limit and can be played at any time.) Cards may be traded 1 for 1 between characters in the same group. So if your cybernetic techno-warrior draws the "Arcane Inspiration" card, it can be traded to the mage for their "BOOM! Headshot" card.

The deck can be found here (ignore the "Held By" names--those are for the ones people have bought with EP or Patronage):
Adventure Card

Just roll a 1d54 below and look up which card that corresponds to. Be mindful of your draw number; the card numbering is one off from the row numbers in the spreadsheet (Row 2 is Card 1, Row 3 is Card 2, and so on). Go ahead and post which card(s) you drew below. Cards are drawn first come first serve, so if you get a roll that has already been rolled by someone else, just note it and reroll.

Other Uses: If the GM is using a Planing and Operation scene outlined in the freedom squad (multiple dramatic tasks of increasing difficulty) playing an adventure card will automatically net you 2 automatic successes.

You may draw now or wait until its officially Q1 2019.

Please check with your GM prior to playing them.

[dice:142dj894]47713:0[/dice:142dj894]
  • 2D6 EFFECT
    2 Catastrophe: Something goes terribly wrong. The GM must decide what, but some ideas are a new and permanent Minor Hindrance, the inability to use powers for several days, or an explosion of some sort. The backlash should be thematic if possible. If the hero tampers with dark forces for his abilities, for example, he might become corrupted or summon something sinister into the world. If he’s a weird scientist the device might explode for 3d6 damage in a Medium Blast Template, or he might develop a Quirk, Phobia, or other “madness.”

    3 Backfire: The power succeeds as with a raise but affects a different target with the worst possible results. A bolt hits a random friend, boost Trait increases an enemy’s skill or attribute, etc. If there’s no likely target, he’s Stunned instead. If the power has a Duration other than Instant, it lasts its full term and can only be negated by dispel (the caster can’t voluntarily end it herself).

    4–5 Short Circuit: The power fails but the Power Points allocated to it are spent, along with an additional 1d6 Power Points.

    6–8 Stunned: The caster is Stunned (see page 106). She subtracts 2 from arcane skill rolls for the rest of the encounter (the penalty remains –2 even if she gets this result again).

    9–10 Overload: The character’s synapses crackle and overload with power. He takes 2d6 damage plus the cost of the power in Power Points, including any Power Modifiers the player declared.

    11 Fatigue: The character suffers Fatigue.

    12 Overcharge: The power draws ambient energy from the air, automatically succeeding against the target with a raise and costing the caster no Power Points!

  • Epiphany
