Starting Moves
Divination: When you spend a few minutes performing a divination, describe what it looks like, then ask the GM a question and roll:
+1 if you only want a yes or no answer
+1 if you have an object belonging to the person, place, or thing
On a 7+, the GM will answer your question, and you take +1 forward when acting on the answer. On a 10+, you can ask a follow-up question.
Hex: When you utter a curse upon a nearby living creature, roll+CHA. *On a 10+, you afflict them with a curse until the next sunrise. *ON a 7-9, you also choose 1:
You or an ally suffers the effects of the curse in some way -- the GM will tell you who and how.
It ends when you curse someone else
It can be ended by fulfilling a fairly easy condition -- tell them what the must do.
Example Curses: An inability to speak (or make only animal noises), cause their hair to fall out, their face to become monstrous or bestial in appearance, randomly vomit forth vermin, cover them in boils, make them grow an animal's tail, or cause animals in their presence to panic, flee or attack them.

Herbs and poultices (2 uses, slow, 1 weight)
Thaumaturgy: When you flip through your spellbook for a magical effect or how to craft a magical item, tell the GM what you want to do or create, and the GM will tell you:

Any restrictions or limitations, such as a specific time or place, if it must be used or activated in a specific way, what can destroy or disrupt it, etc.

About:
==== Darya ====
Darya, was one of the unlucky Primordians. Born to poor human parents, she was sold as a child into slavery. All she knew was hardship for early years, treated no better than trash. She was no person, only property. Hard labor and abuse were daily occurrences. Her back is marred with scars from a whip and her form is tiny from the lack of nutrition and tough lifestyle growing up. It was when she was in her late teens, the voice called to her. It asked if she wished for the hardships to end, to have freedom. She ignored it at first, distrustful. But it kept coming back. Never did it harm her, and it soothed and comforted her when her Master was particularly cruel. Eventually, when it asked "Do you wish to be free?" She said, "Yes" A bargain was struck, the voice would give her the power to free herself in exchange for her services down the road. Dusk, who had crawled out out of the shadows, would alert her when it was time.
Using her newfound power, her Master learned the true meaning of cruelty as his actions against Darya were payed back sevenfold. That was the day Darya set herself free. Since then she has never looked back. She found herself a new home, a new community, a family.
==== Dusk ====
Dusk was created, not born. He is made from blood given a life of it's own and a semi-solid form. He's malleable, able to change his shape an form and can speak when he chooses to do so. His color is such a dark red it's almost black. He gets his name from his favorite time of day, dusk. He usually rides as a necklace around Darya's neck, so he can hear and see and speak to her.
What do Primordians look like? It seems like they attempt to syncretize with other cultures, so it would seem that only appearance might separate them.
Our skin ranges comes in various shades of the blue family. Some draw from the purple family as well, like the deepest darkest depths, some are more related to the green family. Our eyes can be any color, and usually have slitted pupils. We have a third, clear eyelid to protect our eyes in the salt water, and fins that extend from our forearms and calves to help with swimming. Our toes and fingers are webbed as well, enabling us to swim better. Our hair colors tend to be non-standard for SurfaceFolk. It tends to make us stand out beyond what the color of our skin and our fins already make us do.
Our people are new, our history more recent than most of the other Oceanfolk (except maybe Brinies, I'll have to ask Kasu). Kasu says that we were brought into this world for a reason. Someone wished to create us. I think Kasu knows who did, but Kasu refuses to tell me.
My skin is periwinkle, my hair a dark navy blue. My eyes are red, bright red. It's hard to have a culture of your own, when your people are so few and rare in number. Hence, why we join with others.
I'm certain that you are quite close to Dusk, but if you're being completely honest: what frightens you about him?
Dusk has a direct connection to Kasu. I know, it's because Kasu has plans, I'm allowed to move around freely. I fear Dusk being forced to be turned against me, and force me back into slavery. I am not sure how much control Kasu has over him. I try not to think about it much.
What do you know of Leviathans? How much knowledge does Darya have of the source of her powers?
Leviathans are creatures of legend, said to have been around since the beginning. Perhaps they are remnants of the world before ours. Few have met one, and there numbers are unknown....
