TABLE: HORSE MAGIC
|

|
|||
|
|
<p>Here’s the deal with horse magic. Roll from two columns of your
|
|||
|
|
choice at the beginning of each session.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>For example, I just rolled for <em>adjective noun</em> and got a 12
|
|||
|
|
and a 3. That’s <em>shady whip</em>. Spooky!</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Now it’s all about interpreting the spell’s meaning, and negotiating
|
|||
|
|
its impact and effect.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Horse magic is freeform. The only rule is that it costs dice from
|
|||
|
|
your SPIRIT pool. A minor effect probably costs 1 or 2 SPIRIT. A medium
|
|||
|
|
effect, 3 or 4. A large effect could cost 6 or more!</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>You can roll for a new horse spell at the beginning of each session,
|
|||
|
|
or when the fiction calls for it. e.g. after a momentous event, after a
|
|||
|
|
significant rest, etc.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Flexible magic: Optionally roll twice, and then choose any two words
|
|||
|
|
from the <em>rows</em> that you rolled.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h2 id="horse-plot">HORSE PLOT</h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Ways to use the plot generator:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>Roll d6. Read the WHO the WANTS and the BUT. This is the plot for
|
|||
|
|
your game.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>Roll d6 three times. Once for WHO, once for WANTS, and once for
|
|||
|
|
BUT. This creates a more random, zanier plot for your game.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|

<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p><strong>THE OLD WATERING HOLE</strong>: There is a wise old
|
|||
|
|
farmhand here. What a glorious mustache they have. The old watering hole
|
|||
|
|
is shady and cool and its muddy banks are welcoming to all creatures,
|
|||
|
|
tame and wild. There is a large, large tree here, its branches reaching
|
|||
|
|
out over the water.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p><strong>THE PASTURE</strong>: Green, green grass as far as the
|
|||
|
|
eye can see. Troy, a retired show horse, can be found here and is happy
|
|||
|
|
to reminisce about their glory days to anybody who will listen.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p><strong>THE STABLES</strong>: Where the horses are stabled and
|
|||
|
|
groomed. The farrier shoes the horses out back.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p><strong>THE RACETRACK</strong>: Kids and spectators crowd the
|
|||
|
|
fences to see the horses race by. Small fortunes are made and lost each
|
|||
|
|
afternoon. Three-Fingered Gerald, a local gambling enthusiast, has
|
|||
|
|
experienced the highest highs and the lowest of lows at this track.
|
|||
|
|
Horse sports of all varieties are held in the infield.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p><strong>THE VET</strong>: Where horses go to get better.
|
|||
|
|
Dr. Arizona Chance is working on perfecting her groundbreaking horse
|
|||
|
|
massage technique.</p></li>
