FEATURES

Ephemeral - Passive: The Wish Spirit is resistant to physical damage.

Flickering Dream - Action: Wish Spirits possess incredible power, but only within the realm of making mortals’ wishes come true. Mark a Stress to bring a mortal’s wish to life within the bounds of the current environment until the end of the scene. At the end of the scene, the Wish Spirit must mark another Stress or the wish dissipates, leaving the mortal with just the memory of its brief appearance.

Heart’s Desire - Action: The Wish Spirit reads the emotions and intentions of a creature within Close range. The target may allow the spirit to read their emotions or make a Presence Reaction Roll to conceal their desires. If they allow the spirit to read them, they gain a Hope.

Tenuous Hope - Reaction: When a Wish Spirit marks its last Stress to sustain a wish, ask the player that made the wish to roll a Hope die (if the wish is especially large in scale or requires substantial changes to the lives of others, roll two Hope dice and take the lower result). If the result is higher than the current Fear count, the Wish Spirit gives up the last of its life force to make the wish permanent. If the result is equal to or lower than the current Fear count, the Wish Spirit cannot maintain its magic and the dream dissipates. All present must succeed on a Presence Reaction Roll or lose 1d4 Hope.
