FEATURES

Cruel Barb - Action: Spend a Fear to choose a target within Far range to mock. The target must make a Presence Reaction Roll. If the Demon of Mockery knows what they’re ashamed of, they have disadvantage on the roll. On a failure, the target takes 2d12+6 magic damage and is Vulnerable until they roll a success with Hope or the Demon of Mockery is defeated. Additionally, all PCs within Close range of the target lose a Hope. On a success, the target and all PCs within Close range gain a Hope.

I Know What You Did - Reaction: The first time a PC comes within Close range of the Demon of Mockery in a scene, they must succeed on a Presence Reaction Roll. On a failure, the Demon learns something they are ashamed of. The Demon of Mockery can use their Experience without spending a Fear against that PC.

Keep Your Distance - Reaction: When the Demon takes Major or greater damage from an attack within Very Close range, you can mark a Stress to immediately move up to Close distance.
