Past Work - GRIFTER - Wednesday November 23, 2011

GRIFTER (formerly known as Joker)   PLAYS CARDS FROM DISCARD PILE

You have the power to Con.

As a main player, after encounter cards are selected but before they are revealed, you may declare a Con. Use this power to exchange the card you played facedown with a “hot” card which you choose from the discard pile. If the “hot” card is not an encounter card, you lose. After the “hot” card is revealed, it is removed from the game. Only you may look through the discard pile.
( Main Player Only | Optional | Planning )

WILD  Once per encounter you may pick one the main players and force that player to discard a non-encounter card of that player's choice. Then you may give that player one encounter card of your choice from the discard pile.
( As Any Player | Any Phase )

SUPER  Your “hot” cards are not removed from the game, they are stashed and can played normally by you, and then discarded. Your stash is immune from the effects of other powers.
( Main Player Only | Resolution/Planning )

History

Everything you've ever heard about the Grifters is a lie, especially everything they've told you. Better check your pockets and your planets; Grifter's probably already gone there and taken what they want!

Notes

The recommended experience level for this power is Advanced. This is a Resource type power.

 

New Expansion Set Game Rule - COSMIC STASIS

If a COSMIC QUAKE occurs (Cosmic Conflict Expansion) and there are not enough cards for all players to draw a new hand of 8 cards each, a COSMIC DIMINISHMENT is declared and all players draw 5 cards. If there are not enough cards for each player to get 5 cards, COSMIC STASIS is declared and the game ends in a universal draw.
