Chaos Pool
The Chaos Pool is a shared danger meter. The GM builds it up, then spends it against the players.
How Chaos gets added
- Players use their psychic powers recklessly.
- Players roll a 7-9 (success with a catch) and trigger a side effect.
How the GM spends Chaos
The GM cashes in Chaos to throw complications at the players. A monster shows up, a big event kicks off, or real life interrupts at the worst possible moment (your mom calls mid-fight).
Chaos effects can be silly (the room fills with floating rubber duckies) or eerie (the walls start breathing). The GM sets the tone based on what fits the scene.
