[FURY] Vignette the Brainer
Vignette the Brainer
Look
Woman, high formal wear, pale face, deep eyes, slight body
Stats
Cool: 0, Hard: 0, Hot: +1, Sharp: 0, Weird: +2
Brainer Special
If you and another character have sex, you automatically do a deep brain scan on them, whether you have the move or not. Roll+weird as normal. However, the MC chooses which questions the other character’s player answers.
Moves
Casual brain receptivity: when you read someone, roll+weird instead of roll+sharp. Your victim has to be able to see you, but you don’t have to interact.
Direct-brain whisper projection: you can roll+weird to get the effects of going aggro, without going aggro. Your victim has to be able to see you, but you don’t have to interact. If your victim forces your hand, your mind counts as a weapon (1-harm ap close loud-optional).
In-brain puppet strings: when you have time and physical intimacy with someone—again, mutual or 1-sided—you can plant a command inside their mind. Roll+weird. Ona 10+, hold 3. On a 7–9, hold 1. At your will, no matter the circumstances, you can spend your hold 1 for 1:
Visions of death: when you go into battle, roll+weird. On a 10+, name one person who’ll die and one who’ll live. On a 7–9, name one person who’ll die OR one person who’ll live. Don’t name a player’s character; name NPCs only. The MC will make your vision come true, if it’s even remotely possible. On a miss, you foresee your own death, and accordingly take -1 throughout the battle.

Brainer Gear
brain relay (area, close,
hi-tech)For purposes of brainer moves, if someone can see your brain relay, they can see you. (Vignette's tarantula functions as her brain relay.)
violation glove (hand, hi-tech)
For purposes of brainer moves, mere skin contact counts as time and intimacy.
pain-wave projector (1-harm ap area loud reload hi-tech)
Goes off like a reusable grenade. Hits everyone but you.
implant syringe (tag hi-tech)
After you’ve tagged someone, if a brainer move allows you to inflict harm on them, inflict +1harm.
Weapons
Mind-bonded Tarantula (silenced, 2-harm, close)
Vingette has a mental bond with the spider and can give it simple commands to move, return, bite, not-bite, etc. The spider is not unique, but time and intimacy are required to bond with a creature and only one may be bound at one time.
Fashion
Formal wear, leather outerwear and boots (1 armor)

Gig to check out HM for Admiral: 1 pending
Gig to spy on Valentine for Admiral: ?
Promised 1 barter a week to Jax.
The glove is not obvious. No flashing lights or wires. It is...alive...in a sense, climbing up my arm like a plant. Parts of it are under my skin. It would hurt to pull it off...I think. When I have tried to pull it off, there was this tingling--it's starting now... I am sorry, what was the question? You asked me about the glove? It is pretty, yes?
Where do I get my pretty clothes? I am a whore.
Not the sex kind. Sometimes I think getting sex and getting clothes is getting paid twice...depending on who and how long since last time having sex. Maybe I will be a sex whore someday. Now I am a secret whore. People pay me, I get secrets from other people. Sometimes I buy clothes with what people give me. Sometimes the person with a secret is a lady and she...has trouble with the questions. Then, she does not need clothes anymore. That does not make me a thief or a bad person.
I need nice clothes because I go out a lot. I have noticed that bad things happen to people not in nice clothes. Sometimes, people try to do bad things to me, even if though I have nice clothes. I tell them "no" inside their heads. Usually, they are able to run away.
The blood rains make it difficult to keep my clothes clean. I have a large coat with a hood. This helps, but I often need to get new clothes.
Has anything happened since? Would you like something to happen?
Since that night, I sleep in the pile most nights. I sometimes need to work. I sometimes need to go out and get away from all their thoughts. But I am there most times. When I am there, Cujo is as well. I try to sleep near Dog, so Cujo is there. I do not really want to sleep near Dog. I do not think Cujo believes I do. Cujo keeps me from sleeping near Dog. Cujo looks at my eyes. I look at Cujo's eyes, and I do not let her thoughts in. Cujo's eyes are very beautiful. I think that maybe she does not know this because they are sometimes angry eyes. Her lips are very red like mine. I wonder about them too, if they are as soft as they look. Mine are.
We never defined Pike. Here's a proposal. All of this is subject to edit. I'm just putting a starting point out there.
Since Pike is sort of large, I used the regular Hardholder rules instead of the small holding rules. Would be happy to reverse that if you want.

From the choose 2 list:
Gang: about 40 people, well-disciplined, not well-equipped
(medium, 2-harm, 1-armor)
