And lo, the ancient's chosen arise. Split off into groups, they find themselves at the mercy of the world... amidst a sea of ash and dust.

Netzach, Kaliv, Telos.

You awaken in the birthing facility, springing forth from your containment cells, in possession of your Units.

The chamber you all stand in is an apartment-sized room of solid black-green tiles, stinking of fetid rot from years of disuse. Various implements presumably used in your Units creation lay about the place, scattered as though left in a hurry. There are multiple exits, one to the north and one to the south. From the northernmost exit, you hear something coming.

What do you do? (Remember to consult the Moves before acting! If you don't mention a specific move, I'll assume you aren't attempting to perform one and won't roll for you.)

Ria, Chariklo, Zaul.

Morning sun penetrates your containment cells, as you sluggishly slough off the detritus from millennia of atrophy. You three stand in the middle of a large, open space, seemingly what was once a war-zone by the size of various craters strewn across the place.

Blasted husks of buildings litter every direction, and your containment cells lie amidst rubble. There is one intact building, a large metal dome, but it seems to have no entrances or exits.

From the east, you feel a strong wind blowing, bringing heat with it.

What do you do?

MOVES

OVERCOME

[box width=500]When acting while faced with a dangerous or otherwise potentially negative situation, roll. On a 12+, you succeed with aplomb, and are now at an advantage. On a 8-12, you do as you set out to, avoiding danger. On a 4-8, you do what you set out to but luck is not on your side. On a 4-, you succumb to the danger.[/box]

VENTURE

[box width=500]When exploring uncharted lands in search of something, name your goal and roll. On a 12+, you make it there and find something wonderous at your destination or on your way. On an 8-12, your journey goes smoothly with little to note. On a 4-8, something arises during your journey that you must either overcome, or that will haunt you even once you have reached your destination. On a 4-, your journey goes deeply wrong.[/box]

WORSHIP

[box width=500]When you create something of great structure or requirement to please the creators, describe it and roll+CHASSIS. On a 12+, your creation is even more glorious than you expected, earning you extra FAVOUR from your creators. On an 8-12, your creation is as expected, and your creators shall surely appreciate it. On a 4-8, there is something wrong with the structure or the construction process that messes with your plans. On a 4-, the creators are displeased.[/box]

COOPERATE

[box width=500]When you work with other UNITs to achieve a goal, you all roll+LINK, and the majority result is taken. On a 12+, you all succeed, and after doing so you feel much closer to those you worked with. On a 8-12, you work together and achieve something great. On a 4-8, your cooperation struggles, and your relationship is tested. On a 4-, things get ugly.[/box]

PIONEER

[box width=500]When you invent something new, or develop an entirely unique idea, roll+HUB. On a 12+, your idea is even better than you expected, describe how it surpasses your natural limitations. On a 8-12, you create the ideal invention, describe what it allows you to do, and what it takes to operate. On a 4-8, your creation is hampered by something happening mid-process, or by an issue with the process itself. Describe what it intends to do, what it takes to operate, and how it glitches out. On a 4-, your invention is more a scourge than anything. Describe the intended use.[/box]

MANIPULATE

[box width=500]When you perform an act utilizing conversation or performance, intended to harm, decieve, or sabotage someone/thing, roll+LINK. On a 12+, your audience is totally convinced. Not only do they believe you, they will actively aid you in whatever it is you wish to achieve, even at their own peril. On a 8-12, your audience believes you, and your message is clearly communicated as intended. On a 4-8, your signals get mixed slightly, and you are either not believed, or misinterpreted. On a 4-, you have crossed a line.[/box]

COMMIT

[box width=500]When you commit an act of violence, hatred, or malice, roll+FAVOUR. On a 12+, your transgressions are overlooked, due to your otherwise ineffable reputation. On a 8-12, your reputation is somewhat tarnished, but you are not punished otherwise. On a 4-8, you lose FAVOUR, and must repent for what you have done. On a 4-, you have become a HERETIC.[/box]
