Belts
Hero Name: Frameskip
Real Name: Lorena Hernandez
Abilities: superhuman strength and speed, memory manipulation, psychic constructs
Moment of Truth
You embrace your home and call them for aid. They will answer your call—in force!—arriving exactly when you need them to turn the tide. They fight and serve you for the rest of the battle. Of course, when all is said and done...they’d probably like to take you home with them. You did, after all, just prove yourself worthy.
| Labels | Rating |
| Danger | +1 |
| Freak | +2 |
| Saviour | +1 |
| Superior | -1 |
| Mundane | 0 |
Conditions
[ ] Afraid (-2 to Directly Engage a Threat)
[ ] Angry (-2 to Comfort or Support or Pierce the Mask)
[ ] Guilty (-2 to Provoke Someone or Assess the Situation)
[ ] Hopeless (-2 to Unleash Your Powers)
[ ] Insecure (-2 to Defend Someone or Reject Others' Influence)
Team Moves
When you share a triumphant celebration with someone, take Influence over them if you show them meaningful affection, physical or emotional. They decide if it’s meaningful.
When you share a vulnerability or weakness with someone, they tell you what you should do to fit in more. Take +1 forward to do it, and mark potential if you do.
Nemesis
Steerpike: He's the one who started all of this. She has to stop him, to stop all of it... that's what the Doc would want. Too bad she has no idea who he really is or what he' doing in this time... or how to stop the Future from happening.
At the end of every session, answer the question: Did you make progress on defeating your nemesis? If the answer is yes, mark potential. If the answer is no, mark your doom track.
Doom
My Doom comes when I over-exert myself or when I talk about it openly. The more I damage the timeline and the more I overtax the quantum superstring loop in my brain, the more likely I am to just... come apart at the chronological seams... and then no one will be able to stop what's coming.
Doomsigns
Portal: Mark your Doom track to appear in a scene with anyone you want
Sanctuary
The Bubble: A homebase outside of time.
Advantages: a teleportal, a powerful computer, healing equipment
Drawbacks: tied intricately to my Doom, draws dangerous attention
Backstory
When did your first learn of your doom? Well, doom came when the world ended. When the forces Steerpike unleashed blew the previously undiscovered Colombian super-volcano, human civilization as anyone knew it was no more. That's not going to happen for another 51 years, but it's still Doom.
Where did you get your Sanctuary? It's my temporal anchor, a null-time, trans-phase space, that fuels itself on the eddie churn of quantum foam in the margins of the event-flow. Yes, I know; I had to have it explained to me a lot before I got it, too.
Anyways, the Bubble was waiting for me the day I got deputized in a mission to save the future by going into the past and making sure none of it ever happened. It's a pretty nice place, good views of time and space to even if it's not super easy to get it to show you anything you WANT to see.
I tell the others I fell into it, like it was waiting for me somehow... which is not quite a lie.
Why do you oppose your nemesis? To save the future... duh. This one-way trip is already a death sentence for me... least I can do is make sure mankind gets to stick around after I'm gone.
Who outside of the team, is crucial to defeating your nemesis? Professor Eberto Ionio, aka fifteen year old Ebbie Ionio. The Doc gave everything to get me here... and if anything happens to his younger self, who knows what would happen?!
Why does the team matter to you? I tried to do this alone... but I couldn't. I don't know where Steerpike is, or even WHO he is, and I don't know what I'm supposed to do to get things back on track.
Besides, compared to the last six years of my life, it's nice to have... fun with people again.
