Brink

The Station was the major habitation and transshipment point for goods moving from The Gate to Earth and all the colonies and settlements on this side. Decades ago, the Gate failed catastrophically, and we've been on our own ever since. Key adjectives for the campaign: cold, vast, dark, degenerate.

Custom Moves

• When you go naked into the void (i.e. encounter hard vaccuum without the benefit of an intact vac-suit or breathing apparatus), you are taking 2-harm (ap) per tick you spend depressurized. Further, anything you attempt is acting under fire. This situation can be helped by:
  • breathing gear, which reduces the harm to 1-harm (ap) per tick.
  • a damaged vac-suit, which removes the act under fire condition.

• When you rummage through your oddments to find something useful to your present situation, roll+sharp. On a 10+ you have just the thing, or near enough that it'll work more or less like you need it to. On a 7-9 you can make it work if you have to, but using it this way will be acting under fire. On a miss, you try to make it work and something goes horribly wrong in the process.
