[Diaspora] fate and consequences

[Doyce Testerman]

Brad: those are excellent. Since I don't mind contributing to my own
request, I've added some that have come up in recent sessions, below:


> SO: BRAINSTORM.
>
> Let's have some Minor, Major, and Severe Consequences for:
>
>
>   - Social Conflicts
>   - Personal Combat
>   - Ship Combat
>
> Social - Minor
> * Embarassed
> * Shaken
> * Upset
> * Hesitant
> * Uncertain
>
* Flabbergasted
* Distracted

>
> Social - Major
> * Uncommunicative
> * Injured ego
> * Unappealing
> * Second guessing everything now
> * Deeply ashamed
>
* Mild panic (works in personal combat too)

>
> Social - Severe
> * Catatonic
> * Sobbing uncontrollably
> * A laughing stock
> * Completely confused
> * Paralyzed with fear
>
* These guys are just too good
* Game over, man. Game over.


> Personal - Minor
> * Little fingers aren't that important
> * Grazed
> * Cut
> * Bruised arm (etc.)
> * A bad cough
> * Little blood in my eyes
>
* Wind knocked out of me
* My bruises make such a pretty pattern...
* WARNING: This gas has reduced your lifespan by 10 years...

Personal - Major
> * Blurred vision
> * Broken arm
> * Coughing up a little blood
> * Shattered foot
> * Bleeding badly
>
* (this was on our 'immortal, super healing' character) "Sword shoved right
through my shoulder and snapped off/Everyone will know my secret"


> Personal - Severe
> * Shattered knees
> * Punctured lung
> * Pretty sure that's supposed to face the other way
> * Blind
> * Bleeding out
> * Vomiting blood

* Amputated AND cauterized - mining lasers do it ALL


> Ship - Minor
> * Crap flying everywhere
> * Rebooting
> * Flickering electricals
> * Getting hot in here
> * I hear an ominous hissing
>
* Klaxons wailing for no good reason (successful EW)
* Every interior hatch is locked (successful EW)

Ship - Major
> * Breach on deck C
> * Blue screen of death
> * None of these targets can be real
> * It's like a sauna in here
> * Venting r-mass
> * Can't get this spin under control
> * Beams off line (etc.)
>
* *Friend-or-Foe Recognition Disabled* (another EW consequence -- the
players then compelled this to 'force' the affected ship to shoot one of
their allies during the next torpedo phase, which was excellent)

Ship - Severe
> * Engineering is radioactive
> * Drives shut down
> * Too hot to breathe
> * Total decompression
> * Bridge crew all dead
> * The enemy owns my fire control system
>
* Airlock Override! (venting atmo into space, crew scrambling for vac suits)
- yet another EW consequence. Electronic Warfare is WONDERFULLY EVIL
