Bestial Failure

The bot on the server will automatically tell you your results based on the dice and your difficulty. 

What is a Messy Critical?

A Messy Critical is a win where one or more 10’s is in your Hunger dice pool. The character will succeed at their task, but like an animal or a monster would, as if the Beast had a hand in determining the win.

What is a Bestial Failure?

A Bestial Failure occurs when the player rolls a 1 on one or more Hunger die in addition to failing a test. Story-wise, either the character failed because their Beast manifested inopportunely or excessively, or the character’s failure angered their Beast into a reprisal. Any of the consequences of a Messy Critical or simply sustaining aggravated damage are possible depending on the scene’s circumstances. Bestial Failures typically inflict a Compulsion.

What is a Critical?

In most cases this doesn’t mean more beyond the character gaining extra successes, in some cases it can expand how a power works or reduce the difficulty on a test. If you are curious, please ping the staff team to figure out if it does anything special.

Fill out a suggestion, here are some possible outcomes.

• By breaching the Masquerade or by breaking a personal conviction and gaining a stain as they tear through their objective and leave evidence of the event.
• Loss of one dot of an advantage, this can be done in many ways. It can result in a loss of status as you assault a clan that once revered you. It can also be done by burning connections with your contact by hurling insults at them or by totalling a vehicle and losing a dot of resources.
• Compulsions can be played out upon a Messy Critical.
• If there is no way to determine what a Messy Critical would look like, such as a Wits+Awareness test, the test simply fails as the beast clouds the character’s senses or makes a quiet solution unobtainable.
