BOON COMPANION

The Fatebound and the Scion share a deep bond of friendship, camaraderie, and trust.

Invoke

The Boon Companion offers a timely bit of assistance. The Scion’s next action benefits from teamwork as though the Boon Companion had rolled a number of successes equal to the Fatebinding’s Strength.

Greater Invoke

In addition to its default benefits, invokingthe aid of an organization counts them as Followers (or a Creature, type of organization depending) with a rating equal to the Fatebinding’s strength for the duration of the scene.

Compel

Boon Companions expect their friends to return the favor. The Scion gains 1 point of Legend, while the Boon Companion gains the Imperiled Condition. The Condition represents a favor the Boon Companion needs help with and if the Scion refuses or fails to assist the condition is resolved by reducing the Fatebinding strength by 1.

Greater Compel

Remember that organizations are just as likely to ask a favor, and that the needs of one are more varied and challenging than the needs of individuals.

Avoidance

If the Demigod refuses to assist her Boon Companion in their time of need, Fate conspires to turn other friends away, decreasing all Attitudes toward the Scion by 1 and imposing +1 Difficulty to all social rolls until the end of the episode.

Resolve

The Fatebound swoops in at a dramatic moment to help his Scion friend. Resolve this Condition after rolling an action: The Scion passes the action with Enhancements equal to the Fatebinding’s Strength. The Scion’s player then chooses one of the following options:
• The Boon Companion dies, or is otherwise taken out of play permanently. The Scion gains the Failed Condition and receives a Failure Deed.
• The relationship deepens; convert this Fatebinding to a PARAMOUR (or an UNREQUITED PARAMOUR).
• The Boon Companion turns against the Scion; convert this Fatebinding to a NEMESIS of the same Strength.
• The bond between the Companions becomes so deep they swear a blood-oath, binding them together for eternity. Convert this Fatebinding to a FAMILY of equal Strength.
• The Companions are forged in the fury of battle. Convert this Fatebinding to a Squadron of equal Strength.

Avoidance

If the Demigod refuses to assist her Boon Companion in their time of need, Fate conspires to turn other friends away, decreasing all Attitudes toward the Scion by 1 and imposing +1 Difficulty to all social rolls until the end of the episode.
