Oh my God.
That page was never put in the final document?? How could I not notice that??? Ill get thst fixed ASAP.
Til then, here it is.
THE CURSE OF J. DOE
As the investigation continues, the Curse of J. Doe will begin to envelope the lives of the morticians.
Every dice roll made will increase the CURSE
of each character by 1.
Every FAILED dice roll will increase the CURSE
by another d4 points.
CURSE can be rolled back through Magical Acts, spending PSI or MAGIC points to reduce CURSE.
This must be reflected by some meaningful in game action. If a psychic or magic user player runs out of PSI or MAGIC points while in the process of investigating a J. Doe or Necrodiving, they will soon suffer a gruesome and ironic death at the hands of the curse.
CURSE EVENTS
Points Effect
5- Poltergeist activity effects the mortician: vehicles and devices glitch out, lights flicker, strange things are seen out of the corner of the eye. Odd things are heard in empty rooms. The cursed begin to suffer hallucinations of fake evidence that the others are out to get them.
10- A minor paranormal effect related to the Abyssal Lord is inflicted on the mortician, such as a horrible lumpy rash for Satan, black mold suddenly being in places and on things the mortician interacts with to an uncanny degree for alagnus, a throbbing itch in the chest for Rugon.
15- Players start slipping into liminal spaces that look like reality, but are really thresholds of the Lord’s realm. The Mewling will be found here.
20- Unknowing lunatics possessed by the Lord at hand start getting drawn to the morticians. Some wish to deceive and mislead them, some think they are trying to save their souls. Some want to wear their faces. Some of these lunatics may actually be manifestations of The Cruel.
25- The paranormal effect inflicted on the mortician gets worse. One stat reduces by 1 level.
30- The Mortician must make regular MOXIE saves, or find an occult talisman of protection, or they will become temporarily possessed by the Ascended.
30- The Wretched will begin to manifest in the liminal spaces.
55- The Mortician meets a gruesome end.
