The Outcast

Vagabond. Drifter. Criminal. You might be any one of those. You might be ALL of them. For most, the world as they knew it has completely and totally gone to hell. For you, it hasn’t gotten too much worse. For you, it wasn’t all that good to begin with. For you, survival has always been the goal. The living dead just upped the stakes, is all.

  □ Social status
  □ Non-conformist looks
  □ Strange social or religious habits

After everyone took his turn, note +0Trust for any player who didn't tell you anything.

Afterwards, the player you trust most highlights one of your Stats. The GM highlights another one.

Outcast Moves

□ (XP) Not a talker: Whenever someone tries to gain your Trust or the other way round, you may give a Disadvantage to his roll. If a gain in Trust results from the roll, mark XP.

□ That might come in handy: If you succeed on a scavenge move, choose one additional piece of gear to find from the following list:

• A tool worth an Advantage for a specific kind of action
• A melee weapon worth +2Harm or +1Harm, +Messy
• A +Unreliable ranged weapon with +1Harm, +Far or +2Harm, +Close
• A specific item of you choice

□ Scary, huh?: To intimidate someone, roll +Sick.
▲ On 10+, choose 2, ◀ on 7-9 choose 1:

• They back up
• They immediately stop doing what they were doing
• They run away
• They drop their stuff

▼ On a miss, they react hostile and fearless.

□ (XP) Haunted by the past: If a situation reminds you of your past, roll +Cool.
▲ On 10+, gain an Ongoing Advantage,
◀ on 7-9, gain an Advantage.
If you get out of the situation without suffering new Harm or getting Infected, mark XP.

□ One tough bastard: You're never unprepared for a fight. You always have a +1Harm, +Close melee weapon hidden somewhere and your clothing is +1Armor.

□ Eye for an Eye: If someone betrays you, inflict +Harm equal to the Trust you lost in him. This happens before anything else gets resolved.

□ Street honor: If someone treats you with disrespect, roll +Cool.
▲ On 10+, you shrug it off. Your opponent has the Disadvantage on his next Cool move,
◀ on 7-9, likewise, but also the situation escalates into a blame game or straight-up violence, your opponents choice.
▼ On a miss, you even look dumber than before. Your loose -1Trust from a person of your opponents choice.
