Weapons

  • SparkthrowerMain · Ranged (fire)Range Range 8 · RoF 1 shot / turn · Damage 1d6 Energy + 1 BurnEffects: Reliable 1 · On hit: target gains 1 Burn · You gain 1 Pyrite Resonance regardless — the weapon stokes its own Cantor

Core Power

BURN BRIGHT. T3 · Full · 4 Pyrite (requires Overcharge): 2d6 + Grit Burn to a declared target anywhere within Sensors, knocked Prone; you take 2 unmitigated recoil. Tags: AP, Self-Damage.

Song-Moves

  • Spark. Quick / passive: when you commit a risked attack, gain 1 Pyrite Resonance (the band builds by acting, not by waiting).
  • Commit. Declare an all-in attack against one target; +1 accuracy, but you cannot benefit from cover until your next turn.

Traits

  • Glass Coal. Flint runs Armor 0 by design — the Striker tanks nothing. It ends the fight fast, or it burns.

Mounts: 2× Main, 1× Flex. Armor is a flat subtractor (not a second health bar). Evasion is synthesis, not a dodge roll.

Bond Move · Strike Anyway

Fracture Shame → Transformation ActionOath Worthiness. A Full Action (the Stabilize slot). One honest line, in character; you never disclose anything real.

Name the hard choice and what it costs you — then act anyway. Oath (T3 Guardian anchor — active while held): your next committed attack lands true; clears Shame.

Oath Ladder · ShameAction · Rung 1 of 9

Rung 1 is the Catalyst and is not sworn — it happens to you. You may reach for rung 3, one above the highest you have sworn.

  1. 1.the Catalyst(not sworn: what was taken)
  2. 2.the Binding“I will change”
  3. 3.Worthiness“worthy / the shame refused” (reaching)
  4. 4.Assertion“I will act”
  5. 5.Autonomy“the choice is mine”
  6. 6.Kindling“I light you too”
  7. 7.Confidence“I do not need permission”
  8. 8.Temperance“I burn only what I choose”
  9. 9.Action“action / the sun that asks no leave”

Each rung must be lived before it is sworn — the table validates.
