Harm
When you suffer harm you record the injury on your character sheet equal to the level suffered. Harm may be of any type - it can be a physical injury, a mental trauma or psychic attack,
You may have:
- One level 3 Severe harm
- Two level 2 Moderate harm
- Three level 1 Lesser harms
If you need to record a harm and the level is already full, you record it to the next level up.
If this means you need to record a level 4 Fatal harm, your character is retired. Work out with the Grandfather what this looks like in the fiction.
Each level has game mechanics attached to it as well:
- Severe : You are incapacitated and require help, you may only do a Move if you Push.
- Moderate : You roll with Disadvantage
- Lesser : You have -1 to rolls
Changes to rolls only apply if the harm can be reasonably said to effect the roll. e.g. a Lesser cut to the leg giving you -1 to rolls would not effect any rolls to do with solving a puzzle unless you think the cut would be distracting, but it would always effect how you walk or run.
