Zed's Dead, Baby

Zed, the Ghoul

Death changed you. It took away your contemplative joy, it dulled your senses, and it left you impossibly hungry. That hunger is always with you, like a hum in your ears that swells and crescendos until you can’t hear anything else. Unattended, it will come to dominate you - but feeding it may be just as bad.

There is a certain beauty to what you’ve become. Your gaunt body, its unnatural form - it draws people in. Your stark disinterest seems exotic. But underneath that disaffected presentation - the hunger, the hunger.

Moves

The Hunger: You have a Hunger for flesh.

When you heedlessly pursue a Hunger, add 1 to rolls. When you ignore a feeding opportunity, roll to hold steady.

Disaffected: When you turn someone on, roll with cold.

Short Rest for the Wicked: When you die, wait it out. Some hours later, you wake up fully healed.

Ending: You remember how you died. When you tell someone about it, give them the condition morbid, and roll to turn them on.

Satiety: When you satiate a Hunger, choose one:
~heal one harm;
~remove a Condition,
~mark experience;
~carry 1 forward

Sex Move: When you have sex with someone, add “having sex with [this person]” as an additional Hunger. If you already have this Hunger, mark experience.

Darkest Self

You will maim, kill and destroy anything in between you and the nearest object of your hunger. You will feed relentlessly. You escape your Darkest Self when someone restrains you or fends you off for long enough for you to regain your composure – at least thirty or forty minutes.
