You're a Pragmatists who recognises in the real world things aren't ever perfect.

Invoke: To make the best of an imperfect situation. You could for example gain a bonus when trying to do a job without the right tools, or under poor conditions.
Compel: Because you don't believe in perfection you don't strive for it. You could be compelled to do things quickly and poorly, to put in less effort than might be ideal or to start a job before the ideal time.

Invoke: Use your obsession/ liking of anime to help "Deal with" some of the more traumatic elements of the supernatural. Sure that 12 foot tall spike ridden ghoul is going to rip you to pieces, But it looks so cool. Also your magic tends to be "impressive".

Compel: No matter how cool you think itll work, real life magic simply doesnt work that way. Your spell may be flashy, but it's sure as heck less effective. all bang and no buck.

I have a double dose for whoever comes after me, think you can handle 2? ^_^

Aspect 1: HA! Ive seen scarier things inside my own damn head.

Aspect 2: The right man in the wrong place.

Aspect 2: The right man in the wrong place.
Finishing the quote: The Right Man in the Wrong Place can make all the difference in the world.

Invoke: This aspect would almost work exactly like the Spiritual Guidance effect of Guide My Hand power.
Compel: You are actually in the real wrong... wrong place.

Turning it down to one Aspect per step :-)

Invoke: You have a knack for finding people who are in over their head before they drown. And helping them to resolve their problems.

Compel: Well, people don't give a shit if you started something. But they sure as hell demand that you resolve the problem.


This is one i thought up for a character I'm planing to play, like to see what people make of it.

My Grandpa left it to me.

Aspect 1: Pay the Ferryman
(Sounds to me like those check cashing places but with power instead)
It seemed like such a great idea at the time you needed his help the most, now you're counting down the time until you can say that your debt is paid.

Invoke: Able to call on whoever it is you dealt with for more favors if you're in a jam.

Compel: You owe your soul to the company store as you keep extending the time it will take to work off all the favors you owe.  One day the Ferryman might decide that it's time to collect in full and leave you hanging when you need it most.

I have seen the worst humanity has to offer.

Invoke: Nothing humans do or say can get close to you because you have seen it all. When somebody trys to provoke or intimidate you it doesn't hit you like it used to.

Compell: Something in you is dead. You have given in to a fatalistic view of the world. Allways expecting the worst of anybody crossing your ways. Nobody can be trusted.

This is the Phase 1 Aspect of the PC I'm working on:

"Oh Lord! Why have you made him a troublemaker?"
in omnia peratus! ... wait a minute! ... to give anybody a rucksack? ... DAMN CORRESPONDENCE COURSE!

"Oh Lord! Why have you made him a troublemaker?"

Invoke: Trouble is your middle name. It doesn't deterr you anymore, and you've learned to talk your way out of a lot of almost anything.

Compel: You always find trouble. Even if you don't, trouble finds you, and then everyone is convinced it's your fault.

Invoke: One thing is for sure. You Sir are a giant nerd. Your knowledge of the sifi-worlds, comicbooks an fantasy is unrivaled. In other words: "Your geek penis is longer and harder than all of ours put together."

Compell: When it comes to interacting with people who are not nerds they don't think you are very astute, and you realy don't know why. When speaking to a woman the only thing that you can truely count on is making a fool out of yourself. Apart from this you obviously might be compelled to seek bloody revenge on the field of battle.

You bear an uncanny resemblance to an aging sci-fi actor known as The Shat! and are a hit at conventions

Invoke: You gain a bonus when the case of mistaken identity could benefit you
Compel: You ... occasionally ... suffer ... from ... halting ... speech.
