Death's Door

Special

The Lady of Crows herself turns you back — or doesn't — at the threshold.

Granted Features
Automatic:
Your flesh refused the grave, and so did you — but the cost is still coming due.
Death came, but you refused it — and now something of you wanders, unfinished.
You called a name no one should call, and it answered — now you belong to it.

When you are dying, you glimpse the Last Door and the Lady of Crows (describe them). Then, roll+nothing: on a 10+, you wrest yourself back to the realm of the living — return to 1 HP but say how your brush with death has marked you; on a 7-9, the Lady waves you off — you're no longer dying but you're out of the action; on a 6-, your time has come — choose 1:

  • Make one last move as if you rolled a 12+, then step through the Last Door.
  • Refuse to go; gain the Revenant or Ghost insert.
  • Call on one of the Things Below by name and beseech it to intercede; gain the Thrall insert.
