Title: Joke: Autohematomancy
Post by: devonapple on April 06, 2011, 07:26:03 AM
Autohematomancy [-1]. You can read sooth in the pattern of blood spatters: specifically, your own blood. After taking a bloodshed-themed physical consequence, in direct conflict against a given creature with Toughness Powers and a Catch, you may make an assessment roll to discover that Catch by reading your own dropped blood, using your Lore skill.

That is pretty cool.  Especially for a group with no wizard.

It may be meant as a joke, but I'd allow it.

This came out of a goofy discussion about how Dresden has to take a certain amount of punishment from something before figuring out how to defeat it.

I think that a serious version could just add divination-based maneuvers, assessments and declarations to lore with the option of taking (or maybe inflicting) consequences for a boost.
