HOPE FEATURE

Witch's Charm: When you or an ally within Far range rolls a failure on an action roll, you can spend 3 Hope to change it into a success with Fear instead.

CLASS FEATURES

Hex: When a creature causes you or an ally within Close range to mark any number of Hit Points, you can mark a Stress to Hex them. Action and damage rolls against a Hexed creature gain a bonus equal to your tier. This condition lasts until the GM spends a number of Fear equal to your Spellcast trait to remove it or you Hex another creature. Otherwise, remove it when the scene ends.

• 1-3: You taste a flavor, smell a scent, or feel a sensation relevant to the answer.
• 4-5: You hear sounds or see a vision relevant to the answer.
