JEZEBETH THE FALLEN

I am a pale reflection of the glory I once was

I embody the hubris and volatility of the apocalypse

My power is faded, cracked and deceitful

My heart years to worship and be worshipped


DARKNESS: 0

I gain Darkness when I...

  • Feel others are beneath me.
  • React with spite or arrogance.
  • Ask someone to worship me.
  • Ask someone to betray another.
  • Embody a Condition that effects me.


What Does the Darkness Demand of me?

  • To create dark churches in my name.
  • To fall in love with a monster who can destroy me.
Experience: 0/8
Ruin:       0/5

CONDITIONS

Lustful: [ ] 
Raging:  [ ]
Forlorn: [ ]
Obsessed:[ ]

BONDS

He longs to worship me, his heart yearns for me. His love is full of such sweetness and how I wish we could enjoin. But his destiny is to assault the gates of Heaven, and so to love him means discarding my the love I give my family. This I cannot do. And so I keep my distance.

  • The Darkness: 1

The thing nestled within my broken heart whispers such nothings. And oh how it knows what I want so well. Sweet and tender like the forbidden fruit, I would sup its juices from the smallest bite so gladly. It tempts the willing, and who am I to resist?

MOVES

FALLEN

CALL ME MASTER

None can resist the call of Jezebeth's dark heart; not for long anyway... When you declare how you mesmerise onlooking NPCs with your faded power, spend Darkness Tokens and roll.

ON AN 8-10: you have claimed new worshippers. Choose two:

  • They will fulfill a single command exactly as you wish.
  • They will grant you new powers temporarily; describe them.
  • They will create a place of worship and power in your name.

ON AN 11+: you wonder if this is truly what you desire. Choose one from above, and one from below:

  • An old enemy takes notice and makes a move against you, mark 1 Condition.
  • Your true self emerges for a moment; destroy 1 Bond.
  • Receive a terrible vision of your future; mark 1 Ruin.

ON A 7-: the song of your dark heart awakens a slumbering horror, the Keeper will tell you what dark and terrifying entity answers your call.




YOU LOVED ME ONCE

When you first encounter a named NPC or Faction, you may declare how they loved or worshipped you before your fall. Spend Darkness Tokens and roll.

The Keeper will tell you something significant and valuable, even on a miss.


ON AN 8-10: you feel their heart open to you, choose one:

  • They worship you still; gain 1 Bond with them.
  • They have what you need, clear 1 Condition.
  • The sight of them soothes your heart, erase 1 Ruin.

ON AN 11+: they intoxicate you; choose one:

  • Your fates are now linked in strange ways, gain 1 Bond with them.
  • They can help you seek vengeance on who wronged you, mark 1 Ruin.

ON A 7-: they serve those who forced your fall, their master makes a move against you immediately. The Keeper will tell you what happens next.

RUIN

TREMBLE BEFORE ME

Jezebeth's words once swayed gods and could break the gates of Heaven. When she speaks in her true and ancient voice, all living mortals are driven to weep.

When you UNLEASH THE DARK and enforce your will socially or emotionally, you may choose to mark 1 Ruin. If you do, treat the moves as if you rolled an 8-10 and choose four options instead of two.
