Editing Cortex Fantasy Hack (section)

=SFX=
Each distinction has potential SFX associated with it [as can Signature Assets, but not during chargen]. An SFX is something beyond the base Distinction that you can do that allows for a specific benefit in exchange for a specific cost. To start play, you may create one SFX for each of your Distinctions. Each SFX should have one benefit and require one cost. Below are a list of example Benefits and Costs.

Each SFX you create should conceptually fit the Distinction it is paired with.

==Possible Benefits==
*Earn a Plot Point
*Step up a beneficial die (usually a Skill or Asset, like “step up Melee Combat”) for an action
*Double a beneficial die (usually a Skill or Asset, like “double Melee Combat”) for an action
*Step back a non-beneficial die (usually a Complication) for an action
*Introduce a non-dice related story detail (“I know how to find the resources we need…”)
*Rename a Complication to change its nature (“I’m not Sickened, I’m Angry”)
*Reroll a single die after a failed roll
*Create a [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] Asset for the rest of the scene

==Possible Costs==
*Spend a Plot Point (very common)
*Step back a beneficial die (usually an Attribute, Skill, or Asset) for the scene
*Choose to do something risky or complicated (“When you attack a red adept in front of their entourage...")
*Take or step up a broad Complication (like “Take or step up a Complication that represents your physical exhaustion”)
*Take a specific [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] Complication (like “Take a Heat Exhaustion Complication” [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]])
