Description

Identity is a complicated thing for a Troll-sized agglomeration of human souls animating a bunch of rubble. But, all together, “you” are a stone keening—the fate of every unlucky sod who doesn’t get siphoned into a Keystone when they die. You’re better off than most, though. You still collectively have your wits about you, your new neighbors are (mostly) agreeable, and you all have common cause: don’t get turned into gravel by a frightened mob screaming “monster!”

Possessions

  • One Very Big Fist (Damage as Large Beast)
  • Literal Rock-Hard Body (Heavily Armoured)
  • Some Bits of Moss Growing on You (Fresh Ingredient)
  • A rucksack
  • 2d6 provisions
  • A length of rope
  • A flint knife
  • A pocket full of dried tinder-moss

Advanced Skills & Spells

Add your Skill ( + 5 ) to each of these:

  • 4 Strength
  • 3 Disguise (As Rubble Only)
  • 2 Punching
  • 1 Second Sight

Special

You can communicate with other Keenings or loose souls without the aid of magic. Additionally, you can always identify what a piece of rubble came from.

Look’n For…

  • A Comfy Keystone You All Agree On
  • Others of Your Kind
  • A Quiet Place to Grow Moss
