Voices

This and Minds are complete originals for my new revisions. I am very proud of them. If you don't like it, too bad, don't use my system.

The idea that Lunars can't get by in society is completely bogus. Voices make a Lunar with SBT very socially effective. The system:

Make up a social effect, it doesn't actually have to be a voice. This "voice" affects characters in a way that you make up and is approved by the GM when you make it. The effect on a roll is a number of auto successes equal to your Essence. Vague? It should be. I'm making this for maximum customization without overkill (hopefully). Examples: a commanding voice, "always sounds like your mother" voice, a distracting voice.

Be creative with this stuff. If you've got a negotiator concept, give him/her a "trusted voice" and make your legitimate negotiations fool-proof. With another SBT give him/her an "underhanded voice" to make your dealings with the local blackmarket unavoidably successful. What can you come up with?

Voices does not stack with the SBT auto-successes bonus. Only a 2 or 3-die stunt may overrule this.

Voice actions are reflexive and cost 1 mote (stunt and it costs nothing!). They are generally used with another action as well, though, too. Stealthing and using a distracting voice is a good example. A voice duration is variable and can be changed through differant measures of creativity.
