Red Card One: Shattered Focus
* Name: Shattered Focus * Deck: Red Deck (Failure) * Roleplay Emphasis: A catastrophic lapse in mental discipline breaks the flow of thought required to direct power. The mind wanders or snaps under tension, dropping all inner stabilization and opening an obvious rhythm for the adversary to seize upon. * World and Mechanical Effect: The targeted enemy perceives the complete collapse of focus, finding immediate momentum to brace itself and fortify its stance. The foe gains an immediate temporary bonus of 4 points to its Armor Check and adds 3 points of damage to its very next attack.
Red Card Two: Sympathetic Dispersion
* Name: Sympathetic Dispersion * Deck: Red Deck (Failure) * Roleplay Emphasis: The intense psychological strain of attempting to channel power creates a disruptive harmonic pulse that jolts a nearby companion. The sudden psychic feedback scatters the ally’s mental preparation right in the middle of their own calculated maneuver. * World and Mechanical Effect: A designated ally or companion suffers sudden cognitive distraction, enduring a 3-point penalty to their next attack roll and a 10 percent reduction to their next attempted skill check within the encounter.
Red Card Three: Overextended Fixation
* Name: Overextended Fixation * Deck: Red Deck (Failure) * Roleplay Emphasis: Tunnel vision takes hold to an unhealthy extreme. By obsessively narrowing perception onto a single detail of the attack, awareness of the broader battlefield vanishes entirely, giving every opposing entity the upper hand in maneuvering. * World and Mechanical Effect: The nearest enemy capitalizes on the rigid, unmoving focus of the attacker, receiving an immediate 4-point bonus to its next roll to hit.
Green Card One: Singular Purpose
* Name: Singular Purpose * Deck: Green Deck (Crit) * Roleplay Emphasis: The external world fades into complete stillness as internal intent crystallizes into a razor-sharp beam of unwavering concentration. The attack lands precisely where the target’s physical and magical guard is weakest, shattering their composure. * World and Mechanical Effect: The targeted adversary is overwhelmed by the absolute precision of the assault, losing its footing and focus. The enemy suffers an immediate 4-point penalty to its Armor Check and incurs a 3-point penalty on its next attack roll.
Green Card Two: Resonant Cadence
* Name: Resonant Cadence * Deck: Green Deck (Crit) * Roleplay Emphasis: The immaculate rhythm of executed thought projects outward as an aura of calm, organized focus. A party member observes this seamless flow of discipline and instinctively aligns their own breathing and timing to the shared cadence. * World and Mechanical Effect: A designated companion receives heightened clarity of mind, gaining a temporary 3-point bonus to their next attack roll and a 15 percent bonus to their next skill check attempted within the round.
Green Card Three: Absolute Unification
* Name: Absolute Unification * Deck: Green Deck (Crit) * Roleplay Emphasis: Willpower, gear conduits, and physical action unite into an unbroken continuum of thought. Distractions, physical pain, and battlefield chaos bounce away completely unnoticed as pure mental intent drives the strike home. * World and Mechanical Effect: The current strike delivers an additional 5 points of bonus damage, while the acting avatar establishes an impenetrable mental bulwark that grants them an immediate 2-point boost to Armor Check until the start of their next turn.
