Team Moves
When you share a triumphant celebration with someone, say whether it’s part of the show or not. If it is, then you can shift your Labels as you choose. If it is not, then they shift your Labels, and you can clear a condition or mark potential.

When you share a vulnerability or weakness with someone, ask them if they will tell anyone the truth about you. If they agree to keep it a secret, clear a condition or mark potential. If they don’t agree, the GM shifts your Labels.

Moves
Time for the show
When you put on a flamboyant display of your powers, roll + Superior. On a 7-9, name one NPC present. On a 10+, name two NPCs present. The named NPCs must either volunteer help or information, express admiration, or ask for your help, GM’s choice. On a miss, your display catches someone watching in the wrong way.

Cold and Cruel
When you shut someone down, roll + Superior. On a 10+, you either inflict a condition on them, make them lose Influence over you, or take Influence over them, your choice. On a 7-9, you either each inflict a condition on the other, or both lose Influence over each other, your choice. On a miss, they gain Influence over you.

Relationships
Amir might wind up being more of a star than me some day.
The Kilt would be a great sidekick; I try to keep them around.

Audience

You are a celebrity in the city. By default, your audience is a limited group of interested fans, and you speak to them through after-action interviews and infrequent press conferences. Why does your audience love you? Mark all that apply.
❑ You’re just like them
❑ You’re charming, well-spoken, and smart

Choose two advantages:
❑ You can easily speak to them at any time
❑ You earn a lot of money from their interest

Choose two demands your audience makes on you:
❑ They require constant stimulation
❑ They require novelty and brand new action

When you accept what your audience tells you about yourself, clear a condition. When you reject what your audience tells you about yourself, on a hit mark potential and expect retribution.

When you seek help from your audience, roll + Superior. On a hit, someone in your audience can hook you up. On a 10+, they only make a small demand. On a 7-9, their demands are a lot higher. On a miss, you’ve made a mistake, and your audience won’t help you until you’ve redeemed yourself in their eyes

Backstory:

• When did you first appear onscreen?
Yu Na first appeared onscreen as a small time streamer, an entertainer of video games to the internet masses. She had a small following but nothing to write home about.

• What do you tell people about how you got your powers?
The official press release story is that her adrenaline and joy allow her to affect the light around her to enhance, solidify, warp, and change the light around her.

• Who, outside of the team, supports your burgeoning star in every way possible?
Her official sponsor is the game company RealPixel Entertainment, who sends her palates of game merch, gifts from her fans, offerings from popular brands and stores, and reaps the benefits of sponsorship.

• Who, outside of the team, loathes what you represent?
The local mayor has had it with her shennigans, going so far as to claim its a form of domestic terrorism.

• Why do you care about the team?
They saved her when one of her game sessions involving stopping a low-ranked villain took a turn for the worst and she was in some serious trouble. The team bailed her out, and though she's angling for them to be another platform for her to gain a popularity boost, she might actually care a bit for these folks.

Expanded Backstory:

Two teenagers Adam and Julie were loitering near the entrance to the downtown pedestrian mall. They each were dressed oddly for the environment, one in the N7 armor of the Mass Effect series, and the other in the familiar clunky looking Power Armor of the Fallout universe. While they got odd looks from the older folks, moving past for an afternoon of shopping, each of them was nervously waiting in anticipation.

”Delta Squad! She’s taken down Beta squad and is heading for the objective, take her down!”

Their coms squawked loudly and suddenly they were both at full attention, their cosplay armor and guns at the ready. A skater punk was making his way over, a mocking grin with board in hand ready to teach these weirdos to grow up. That grin turned into a panicked yell as the two cosplayers suddenly turned their guns on him.

Paintballs flew through the air and almost pelted the skater who fell to the floor as a young Korean girl ran past clutching a glowing, golden rifle in her hands. Her sneakers hit the ground hard as she kicked up to dodge the flurry of pellets. Bringing the scope to her eye, she took half a second to aim before.

BLIP! BLIP!

A glowing symbol appeared on Julie’s gut and Adam’s shoulder, both having just enough force to knock them down onto the ground. The Korean girl landed in front of them. She wore a cosplay outfit of a game not yet released, and her eyes shone golden as she reloaded her magazine, the spent one dissipating as she threw it behind her. She smiled as her signature symbol, the winking wide smile emoji popped up where she had hit them.

”Thanks for playing guys!” she said excitedly as she bounded into the pedestrian mall, to face the next squad attempting to stop her.

----------After the Event---------

Yu Na Byeol, took the longest gulp of water she had since the event began. Running around streaming and entertaining was one thing, but doing it in full cosplay with fans literally running after you was far more taxing than she realized.

But it had been a blast.

Her contact at Real Pixel was still raving about the amount of pre-orders that had been placed. It was always numbers with him, always subscriber counts, ad revenue, and viewer counts.

The fans were numbers to him and most of corporate, but she loved her audience, her friends, her community.

Even now her channel was still being flooded with excited messages about the day’s events and people watching it now that they were off work or out of class.

She just lay there, in her private tent for a while, smiling as she watched the love (and the small amounts of hate and pervs) scroll by.
