OTHER MOVES

Most people walk around all day with no idea of the power the darkness

holds or what truly takes place in the shadows. Those who are Aware, awak-

ened to the world as it truly is, have the power to stand up and fight for their

people, to spit in the eyes of the dark beasts that roam their world, and—if

they’re very lucky—live to see tomorrow.

DRAMA MOVES

Aware Corruption Move

When you ignore your mortal responsibilities to deal with the supernatural,

mark corruption.

Intimacy Move

When you share a moment of intimacy—physical or emotional—with some-

one who is not mortal, mark corruption.

End Move

When you die, each character chooses whether your death inspires

or corrupts a part of their being. If it inspires; they erase a Corruption

Advance they have taken (if any). If it corrupts; they immediately take a

Corruption Advance.

Determined and fearless, the Hunter is a mortal who has taken up a cause
