RIVAL

Fate casts the mortal as a rival to the Scion in some arena; maybe they end up competing in business, or for the affections of the same third party.

Invoke

When the Scion’s Rival is around, she does her best to show him up. The Scion gets Enhancements equal to the Fatebinding’s Strength on an action to best, outfox, or otherwise show up her Rival. The Rival doesn’t even have to be in the scene — just knowing he’ll hear about it is enough.

Greater Invoke

If the Rival is of the same Tier or higher, the Scion does not have to spend or invoke Legend to perform a Feat of Scale to one-up her Rival.

Compel

The Scion’s Rival is also trying to show her up. The Scion gains 1 point of Legend, and the Rival gets Enhancements equal to the Fatebinding’s Strength on an action to best, outfox, or otherwise show up the Scion.

Greater Compel

If the Rival is of the same Tier or higher, the Rival may also perform a Feat of Scale at the cost of 1 Tension to one-up the Scion

Resolve

The Scion and the Rival put aside their differences momentarily, working together to deal with a greater threat. Resolve this Condition before rolling: For this roll only, the Scion’s player spends Tension from as though it were Momentum. She may spend a number of Tension equal to the Fatebinding’s Strength.
• The Rival dies, or is otherwise taken out of play permanently. The Scion gains the Failed Condition and receives a Failure Deed.
• That smoldering rivalry turns into sexual tension. This Fatebinding becomes a TRAITOR (Apparent: PARAMOUR, Actual: Rival) with the same Strength.
In addition, when a rival resolves they may also become a BALM or a NEMESIS

Avoidance

If the Scion ignores the Rival, dodges their attempts to compete with them, or otherwise doesn’t rise to the jabs of her enemy, Fate conspires to ensure the Scion can’t avoid them. All Social rolls for the rest of the episode are made with a Complication equal to the Fatebinding’s strength. If the character fails to buy off the Complication, their friends, contacts, etc., just can’t stop talking about the Rival and bringing up how great and successful and accomplished they are
