Abrupt Change
Of Events
 
Suddenly things are not happening the way they were a moment ago. Alliances switch, secrets are revealed, and new information surfaces.
Added Animosity
 
The ill-will between characters grows past current levels. This animosity can be openly expressed or harbored secretly in the heart.
Bad Tidings
 
Someone gets bad news. It might affect play or it might be news of distant and still important events.
Bizarre Coincidence
 
Two or more things come together against incredible odds. Old friends (and enemies) run into you in the supermarket, you just happen to have the rare item you need in your closet, etc.
Change of Heart
 
A character's feelings change and alter a decision. Pirates spare prisoners and hassled innkeepers decide to make room for you after all.
Double Jeopardy
 
Failure carries a double penalty. It could mean the normal penalty doubled, but it could also mean a penalty in addition to the normal one.
Draw a Blank
 
 
Emotional Release
 
Strong emotions are let out. What are the emotions, and what triggers their sudden eruption? Is it a healthy release or a wild tempest?
