Encompassing Duty (Earth)

“I will lay down my life for my family. Nothing will stand in the way of that.” – Aina, Ashigaru of the Lion

Types: Mental

Effects: The following apply to a character with the Encompassing Duty adversity:

  1. You have a duty to something: your family, a friend, a cause, or some other person or ideal. This duty should manifest into at least one discernible goal, one you can work out with the GM. A goal may be to provide for your family, rescue a friend, or achieve a similar aim. You have a difficult time relaxing or focusing on tasks that do not somehow advance your goal, and this may manifest in several ways, including frustration, anger, worry, or nervousness
  2. Whenever you make a check related to overcoming something that could hinder you in achieving your duty (such as a Meditation [Earth] check to keep a cool head in an ambush or a Courtesy [Earth] check to reason with a stubborn shopkeeper), you must choose and reroll two dice containing  or . After resolving the check, if you failed, you gain 1 Void point.
