Uusi sivu

=Zombiehack=

An Apocalypse World hack to play social drama in a zombie-infested world. Borrows heavily from Monsterhearts.

==Themes==

*people are in constant danger, lacking resources, without society's support. How far are the willing to go to give themselves or their group better survival odds?
**why and how are alliances an enmities formed?
**who can you trust? do you allow strangers into your group?
**do you give power and resources to someone who you'd rather not, if they are able to protect you?
**how do you use or misuse your power over others?
*are comfortable things and small luxuries worth taking some risks? Is life without anything nice even worth living?

==Central mechanics==

===strings===
*when you use a string you have on a pc, choose 1:
**+1 to you after rolling,
**-1 to them after rolling,
**offer them xp to do what you want,
**force them to hold steady to do something,
**add +1 harm against them, give them a condition
*when you use a string you have on a npc, choose 1:
**+1 to you after rolling,
**+3 to manipulate NPC after roll,
**cause them to freeze/hesitate/falter,
**add +1 harm,
**give them a condition

===Conditions===
*Taking advantage gives +1 / when affects your actions, causes a -1
*Removed by taking appropriate action in the fiction, and some moves
*Group condition affects everyone in the group (often lack of resources, but could be something else)
** At the beginning of the session, the group leader decides who will get extra screwed by each group condition that you have. MC gets a free hard move on them.

===harm===
*Simplified AW:
**0: non-dedicated hand-to-hand,
**1: dedicated guy with fists or a small handheld weapon,
**2: gunshots, katana,
**3: bad gunshots, explosions
*No armor, no gun ranges, tags, etc
*PCs take 4 harm to die, but can be saved once per session by becoming darkest self or losing all strings on everybody; if so, they get the condition "drained" and go to 1 harm
** except zombie bites, see the move above
*Healing:
**1 per session when resting,
**1 per session when in good care

===darkest self===
*A mode where the character somehow flips and takes her theme to the extreme, triggered by some moves etc.
*Described in each playbook
*Pretty much as in MH
*Can only be triggered once per session

==Stats==
*Hot
*Cold
*Rough
*Quick

==Basic moves==

*Charm a PC (hot)
** 10+: get a string on them
** 7-9: they choose 1: they agree, they promise something they think you want, they give you a string on them
*Manipulate a NPC (hot)
** hit: they agree but need something
** 10+: you can give it later, if you wish
** 7-9: they want it first
*Read a person (hot)
** 10+: hold 2, 7-9: hold 1
** During the interaction, use hold to ask questions: are you telling the truth, what are your real feelings/intentions, what do you wish I'd do, how could I get you to x, how to trigger your darkest self
** TODO: a negative consequence for 7-9? combining with strings?
*Insult or dominate (cold):
** 10+: choose one: give them a condition, they lose a string on you (if none, gain a string on them)
** 7-9: choose one: you each give a condition to each other, you each lose a string on one another
*Stay focused (cold):
** hit: choose one: ask MC a question, remove a condition, carry 1 forward in the scene
** 10+: all good
** 7-9: you hesitate or stall, MC chooses 1: you are exposed to immediate harm, you leave something behind, you attract unwanted attention, you lose your way, you expose someone else to danger
*Go aggro (rough):
** 10+: they take damage or cave and do what you want
** 7-9: they choose 1: get out of your way, take a condition, you get a string on them, they give or do something they think you want
*Seize by force (rough):
** 10+: choose 3, 7-9: choose 1: gain definite hold on it, you suffer little harm, you inflict great harm
** trigger your darkest self on 7-9 to get +1 option
*Escape (quick):
** hit: you get away
** 10+ choose 1, 7-9 choose 2: you get lost or separated, you leave something important behind, you end up somewhere dangerous, the scariest person there gets a string on you
*Scavenge (quick):
** hit: find what you're looking for
** 10+ choose 2, 7-9 choose 1: you find it quickly, you find it without trouble, it's valuable (remove group condition)
*Help or interfere with a pc (num of strings on them -1)
** 10+: they get a +1/-2
** 7-9: MC tells what danger you're exposing yourself to; if you accept it, they get a +1/-2

==Peripheral moves==
*When you harm a PC, they get a string on you
*Harm move as in AW for non-zombies
*If a zombie deals harm to you, roll +harm:
**10+: you are bitten unless you choose 2: get a group condition, offer someone a string on you for helping you, use all strings you have on someone else (at least 1) to betray them
and make them take the hit, get a permanent -1, trigger your darkest self
**7-9: choose 1 above
** make them take the hit = they make this move as if the original harm had come to them and cannot choose the betray option
*TODO: Is a move needed to generate group conditions?

==PLAYBOOK SKETCHES==

*each playbook has a +1 on the two mentioned stats, -1 on the two others

** final showdown (MH): spend 4 strings on an npc to kill them; they can spend theirs for 1 harm each
** take the blow (MH): when you take the blow instead of someone else, roll +rough
*** 10+: take the hit instead at -1 harm
*** 7-9: take the hit instead
** when you make the group sacrifice comfort or such to take precautions against a zombie attack, everybody gets a +1 forward for the next invasion scene
*sex move (MH chosen): heal all wounds and cure all conditions. if they disgust you, give them a string. if you disgust yourself, give them a string.
