Chumpsteady Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 According to the book, drawbacks can either be used every four adventures (uncommon), every other adventure (common) or every adventure (very common). There's also the randomness option of rolling to see if your drawback comes up. Very common is DC 5, common is DC 10, and uncommon is DC 15. So my question is: how do we deal with this here, random or predetermined?
Geez3r Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 It's random, but no die rolls. If it comes up, it comes up. GM's may sometimes tailor the story to the PC's involved which means exploiting the Drawbacks of PC's from time to time. You can also decide that in a particular thread, your drawbacks will come up. So a mix of the two really.
Dr Archeville Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Or, replace "adventure" with "thread" and it should work out. But that adds another layer of bookkeeping, and we Refs are lazy, lazy gods, so what Geez3r said works, too.
