==Power From Pain== You get 1 Pain token whenever a living target within your HEAL in meters is: *Killed (not just reduced below their UNC rating or under 0, they have to actually die) *Suffers a Major Wound *Fails a Valorous for any reason (most common is to keep fighting after a Major Wound) *Is Stunned (ie Knocked down) Thus it is possible to get up to 3 Pain from a single victim if they take a MW, make their consciousness roll, fail their Valor and are also Stunned by the blow. ===Using Pain=== The most basic use of Pain (other than holding back the Thirst seen below) is healing. When a character with Pain Tokens suffers a Major Wound or falls below their Unconsciousness level they immediately lose all Pain Tokens and regain that many hitpoints. Other abilities are lised below but they must be purchased. ===Vile Pleasures=== Your Vile Pleasure modifies this by normally giving you +1 Pain when you get one from one of the above or adds a new category. Sadistic Joy, Bountiful Slaughter and Lingering Dread all are adders. Artful Torment and Cruel Demise give a new category. AT is any damage so this is a good place to use lower damage weapons to drag more agony out of a target. CD increases the range to your full STR+CON in meters. *Artful Torment **Damage stunned victim *Bountiful Slaughter **+1 token for kill or MW *Cruel Demise **Own ranged attack causes Kill, MW, or fal Valor, increase range to Y meters *Lingering Dread + **1 token for Fear or Stun *Sadistic Joy **+1 token for suffering of Ally if not the cause of it Remember: If you fight in close order among multiple enemies you all get the pain token for their wounds etc. Other sources of pain exist but they don't evoke the Power From Pain trait, they simply feed The Thirst. ===The Display Kill=== More for Wyches but anyone can try. If you Stun an enemy you may make a Perform check. Crit: +10 Glory, +2 Pain (+1 more for Artful Torment) Succeed: +5 Glory, +1 Pain (+1 more for Artful Torment) Fail: you lose the +5/-5 for Stunning. Fumble: lose +5/-5 from Stun and you can't cause damage this turn but do not get the bonus fro Fighting Defensively. ===Enhanced power from Pain=== You may buy these abilities by spending Bonus Points from earning Glory. *Might **Increase STR by current pain tokens *Grace **Increase DEX by current pain tokens *Beauty **Increase APP by current pain tokens *Resilience **Increase CON by current pain tokens *Vigor **When gaining Pain tokens regain HP = HEAL (no more than 1/round) *Majesty **Become Fearsome (opponents must make a Valorous test to face you in melee) *Fury **Add Pain tokens to DMG and half that number to combat skills when charging. *Speed **Increase MOV by current pain tokens *Fortitude **Increase KD by current pain tokens *Vile Pleasure **Gain an additional Vile Pleasure from the list above. Stat increases can also modify derived stats.
