Jess Leblanc[edit]

"I find things that don't belong and I kill them. It's good for the planet."'[edit]

River Knight[edit]

Unique Conditions[edit]

River Power (fleeting)

D0a.png D0a.png D0a.png D0a.png D0a.png

Mark one of this condition’s five boxes to use the well of power granted to you by your mantle, as described in your stunts. Recover fully at the end of any scene in which Winter/Summer Power is unused. This condition may also be utilized to create an approach (River, respectively) with a bonus equal to the number of unmarked boxes, usable on any action using the approach. The GM, however, will exacerbate your self-described actions according to the character of the mantle, (destructive and uncaring? ) If the impact of allowing the mantle to control your action is sufficiently complicating, the GM may also treat it as a compel and award you a fate point.

Impaled by Cold Iron (sticky): (Sticky)

D0a.png

Impaled by Cold Iron (sticky): [] If you mark In Peril or Doomed to absorb shifts from a cold iron attack, your attacker can also declare that the cold iron impales you, forcing a mark on this condition as well. While Impaled by Cold Iron, you are prohibited from accessing the mantle’s stunts or conditions. Recovery requires the implement’s removal by overcoming passive opposition (Great (+4) at minimum) or active opposition, such as during combat. This recovery does not affect any other conditions sustained during the attack.

Disfavored (sticky): D0a.png

This condition is marked if your character has disobeyed a direct command of Old Man River, violated the Unseelie Accords, or broken a law of the river. Until your atonement, all stunts and conditions associated with this mantle are inaccessible other than recovery actions if one is marked. The GM will detail the requisite atonement, such as fulfilling the command or making right the violation of the Accords.

High Concept[edit]

Knight of Hell or High Water

Example Compels:

1. Old Man River tells her to do something.

2. She sees someone dumping used motor oil into a storm drain while in the middle of rushing to get somewhere.

3. A supernatural creature I've never met already has a disagreement with me.

Example Invokes:

1. +2 to a roll that involves swimming or operating a boat.

2. +2 to use my rank to impress a local supernatural.

Example Permissions:

1. Can't drown.

2. Genus Locii absolute knowledge when in the river in terms of things in or on the river.

3. Communicate with gators and other aquatic wildlife.

Trouble[edit]

Won't someone just say what they mean! - Jess is relatively new to the supernatural scene and she finds all the Fae irritatingly pedantic and doesn't have time for all these word games and stupid customs.

Example compels:

1. Jess accidentally offends a Fae or other supernatural creature during an interaction.

2. Jess intentionally offends a Fae or other supernatural creature when she feels they are wasting her time.

Example invokes:

1. +2 to convince a supernatural creature that knows her that she's telling the truth or otherwise dealing honestly with them.

Example permissions:

1. Justify using intellect to see if she knows anything about a faction or custom, since she probably screwed up a previous interaction with them.

Free Aspect[edit]

Aquatic Biology Field Scientist

Example Compels

1. She has a day job, even if it has a very flexible schedule and her river powers make the work super easy probably there are duties that will get in the way of adventuring.

Example Invokes

1. When using intellect to recall information about biology or ecosystems.

2. Use scientific equipment

Example permissions

1. Check scientific journals or wildlife resources

2. Conduct research or use overcome actions to learn information through measurements of biological factors

3. Guile to tag a creature to trace where it goes back to

Faster, Stronger, Tougher: Mark a box of River Power to add +1 to any action in which brute strength or sheer speed is requisite.
