  • On an unrelated note… I have these blue and red scraps of paper, and I’m not sure what to do with them:

    Red and blue scraps of paper

    I’m thinking that I could try the blue ones for drawing snowy or icy areas. Not sure how it will go. Guess we’ll find out.

    But the red ones, those are more difficult. For starters, it’s a dark-ish red, which makes it more complicated. Perhaps I should use a sharpie (something with a thick tip) instead of a pen? And then there’s the theme… what fits well with red? Yeah, sure Hell is associated with red, for starters, but I don’t know how I would draw hellish landscapes.

    Any ideas?




































  • I suppose YMMV, but to me it’s central. You see, the Hunter becomes a hunter because she heard a higher calling, and believing in it is what keeps it going.

    You can rename Conviction to Faith, and it probably shows what I’m hinting at. That faith can get you out of trouble (supernaturally so) but it’s also precious. You’re still human, flimsy and prone to errors, susceptible to doubt.

    And you’re way out of your league. All the time.


  • In oWoD’s Hunter: The Reckoning, you can’t advance your Edges (supernatural abilities) with XP.

    To do so, you have to gamble Conviction during the session, while using said Edges (those Conviction points gambled add dice to your pool, ideally improving your odds).

    If you succeed at the task, you gain Virtues (with which you can later buy points in Edges).

    if you fail the task, you lose Conviction points. If you run out of Conviction, you lose your ability to use Edges at all until you rest/meditate/recover for a full week.

    Not sure if it qualifies as “conceptual” or non-mechanical to you. But I love it.
