Origin: Avid reader
Alex tucked an unruly strand of her hair behind her ear and pushed her wireless earbuds into her ears to drown out the sound of 'classic rock' that the chauffeur had chosen to put on the car's radio. Idly, she swiped through the pages of the book she'd scanned onto her iPad. She'd found the original, which was secreted beneath the clothes in her bag, beneath a loose floorboard her mother's brownstone six months earlier, and had been unable to resist reading through it many times a day since. OK, so she hadn't figured it all out yet, but at least she'd been able to figure out how to cast a minor hex on her mum to punish her for sending her away to this stupid f+&@ing school in the middle of nowhere. So what if her 'politics' were too liberal for a state senator's daughter? The rash her mother had come down with had been too perfect!..

The time for subtlety and patience is over. You’re too powerful to put up with their garbage any longer. You hex anyone who slights you. All of your hexes have unexpected side effects, and are more effective than you are comfortable with. To escape your Darkest Self, you must offer peace to the one you have hurt the most.

Sympathetic Tokens: You gain power from Sympathetic Tokens - items of personal significance taken from others. Sympathetic Tokens count as Strings.

Hex-Casting: You can cast Hexes. Choose two that you know. To cast them, either expend a Sympathetic Token during a secret ritual, or meet the target’s gaze and chant at them in tongues. Then roll with Dark. On a 10 up, the Hex works, and can easily be reversed.
On a 7-9, it works but choose one:
* The casting does you 1 Harm.
* The Hex has weird side effects.
* Trigger your Darkest Self.

Wither: The hexed loses all of their hair, or their teeth start falling out, or their period arrives unexpected and heavy, or their skin gets all sickly yellow and spotty. Whatever the specifics, it’s bad.

Ring of Lies:
Whenever the person attempts to lie, they hear a piercing ringing noise. Big lies will often make their knees buckle and disorient them. Severe lies can cause harm or even brain damage.

After sex, you can take a Sympathetic Token from them. They know about it, and it’s cool.
