Consequences
« on: September 12, 2018, 09:42:09 PM »
If I take a "gunshot" Moderate consequence.  Then in the next scene, at a Red Court function, I take an 8 stress social hit can I take Moderate "red-faced" consequence... or do both come off the same consequence heading?

Do I have 3 separate consequence tracks or just one?

Thanks

One track.

If that seems odd to you, bear in mind that consequences are under player control. Consequence slots are a lot like Fate Points.

Ok, so continuing my example I have a "gunshot" Moderate physical consequence and a severe social "red faced" consequence... if I have inhuman recovery "gunshot" heals as a minor consequence... but "red faced" is with me till the end of the story? Since recovery only mentions physical consequences?

Yes.  There's no recovery power for social consequences.  Mortals are on the same playing field when it comes to social conflicts which is why it's sometimes better to talk your way out of tricky situation with very powerful beings.
