PARAMOUR
The Fatebound and the Scion are drawn to each other romantically. Although affection is not dictated by fate, they continuously find themselves in romantic situations.
Invoke
The Scion makes a single use of a Lover Knack. If the Fatebinding’s Strength is 1-3, this must be a Heroic Knack. If the Strength is 4+, it may also be an Immortal Knack. If the Knack only works on a character the Scion loves, that has to be the Paramour.
Greater Invoke
If the Paramour is the same Tier or higher, the Lover Knack can be of any power level, regardless of the Fatebinding’s strength.
Compel
Love is hard work. The Scion gains a point of Legend, and the Paramour gains the Imperiled Condition. In the modern age the Peril is most likely a bit of conflict within the relationship, but sometimes Fate is a traditionalist and the Peril represents capture by the Scion’s enemies.
Greater Compel
When the Paramour gains the Imperiled condition this is relevant to the Tier and status of the Paramour. A godly lover needs far different things than a brave mortal or a legendary creature, while a Titan lover might quibble over things the Scion doesn’t even begin to comprehend.
Resolve
True love accomplishes miracles. When the Scion and her Paramour undertake a Teamwork action, they increase the action’s Scale by the Fatebinding’s Strength. The Scion’s player then chooses one of the following options:
• The Paramour dies, or is otherwise taken out of play permanently. The Scion gains the Failed Condition and receives a Failure Deed.
• Happy endings are boring, and Fate decides to throw some tragedy into the mix; convert this Fatebinding to a CANARY or TRAITOR of the same Strength, or the Paramour gains the Imperiled Condition, with the Peril being serious relationship drama that threatens to end the relationship altogether.
• At the Demigod level, some Paramours are greater threats than others and may also become Nemeses upon resolution
Avoidance
When avoiding, ignoring, or otherwise neglecting the Paramour, the Demigod’s divine nature years for its partner. Gain an additional divinity die per scene the Demigod spends away from their Paramour, until they roll a full pool of divinity dice. Flooding the Pool does not stop this accumulation.
