Alles ist Gift, ausschlaggebend ist nur die Menge. Alles Tun ist ein alchemistisches Zuendeführen, eine geistige Goldmachung und Kunst der Vollendung. Alles Wachsen ist Auferstehen. Auch in die Liebe muss man hineinwachsen und ihre Stunden abwarten, denn die Gewächse der Erde und die Gaben im Menschen haben ihre Zeit.

Joker

10

The character has the ability to profit from special rolls. Everytime the player rolle one of the following dice patterns (while not in combat) the stated effect applies.

  • Three of a kind - The character gains one bonus die
  • Small Straight - The character gains one boost immediately
  • Full House - The character gains one destiny die
  • Large Straight - The character rediscovers an item in his backpack (the player chooses an item and adds it to his backpack)
  • Four of a kind - The character gains +1 actions in every round of the next combat
  • Five of a kind - The characters group gains one additional turn prior to the enemies in the next combat

In each case, the highest pattern to be achieved counts for a roll. So 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 1 is a large straight, but not three of a kind.

As you know, madness is like gravity...all it takes is a little push.
- The Joker

Well equipped

5

The character may spend a wound to take any item from his backpack, even if he doesn't possess it. To do so, the character takes a wound and the player rolls a d6:

  • 1-2: The desired item doesn't exist in the backpack
  • 3-5: A similar item could be found in the backpack
  • 6: The exact desired item could be found

With a little bit of imagination, anything is possible.
