Dramatic Inevitability

Oh!

I almost forgot, I got my first drama die in 7th Sea tonight. If you're not familiar with the system, you get drama dice when you do something cinematic, or cool, or funny, or really in character. I don't usually get them, just because I'm rarely super clever off the cuff.

So I'm playing the reluctant scholar who got dragged along on this wild goose chase. We're three days at sea, a crew member turns up missing, and Jason tells us that from below decks we hear, "Sweet merciful Theus!"

Me: *looks up, mimes turning something* Click.
Dawn: *looks at me for a second and then sputters* Did you just lock yourself in your cabin?!
Me: Yup.

So Jason chucked a drama die at me. :) Apparently, my character's a coward. Whee!
