The Matriarch

Family

Name three members of your family, their Specialty, and their Need. These can be vague concepts or concrete things. Specialities can range from seduction to hacking to illusions to being a history buff. A Specialty should probably feel like it could get used in a campaign. Needs can be spending time with someone, a medial need, cultural items, new spells, romance, and more

Each family member has a Needs track that starts at 0 and goes up to 3. When time passes, you must add 1 to the Need tracks.

You can call on your family when you need their Specialty and, if they can, they will assist you. If the task is particularly hard, the gaymaster may ask you to mark their Need track in order for them to help.

When a Need track reaches 3, the family member is in dire need. If their Need isn’t met by the next time that time passes, they’ll have to deal with the consequences.

Whenever you meet a Need for a family member, you may rest their Need track to 0.

If a Need requires you to leave a scene, the gaymaster should tell you how long you (or someone else who goes to meet that Need for you) will have to be gone and when you should return.
