Sinking (Major)

Whether trapped in quicksand, thick mud, tar, or a vessel plunging into the depths of the ocean, the Area is rapidly submerging, and the characters must struggle to escape. Failure to do so means certain doom!

Complication

This Complication applies to all actions involving physical activity (including attacks) as well as Pilot actions to control a vehicle or mount moving through sinking terrain or to try to salvage a sinking vehicle or mount.

Consequence

If not bought off, characters risk being unable to move or make additional attacks after completing an otherwise successful movement or attack action, losing important equipment or items into the sinking Area, or gaining an appropriate Status Effect.
