Changeling/Rules/Mantle Examples

Here are some examples of things we would consider as being an exceptional member of your Court/showing your connection to your Court in a scene. This is a non-exhaustive list.

Any Court

  1. An exceptional success on the activation of a Court contract.
  2. Achieving a specific task at the express direction of your Monarch or other NPC officer
  3. Fulfilling the function of your Court position (a Joyeux helping someone sort through their feelings, for example)
  4. Explicit discussion of your Court's emotion: A Summer explains the difference between Wrath and Anger, two Springs debate the meaning of 'Your Desire Is Your Own'.

Spring

  1. Encouraging someone to act on their Desires
  2. Your character acting on their desires rather than on rational reasoning, especially to their detriment rather than their benefit (an addict indulging a vice, kissing someone you shouldn't, etc.)
  3. Create a living example of living 'extravagantly, succulently, to entice other Lost to do the same'

Summer

  1. Picking a fight, especially one you're likely to lose or one where the fight is based on emotion rather than logic or righteousness
  2. Encouraging someone to act on their Wrath (or Anger)
  3. Defending the Freehold (explicitly so - I probably wouldn't count 'generic Hedge patrol' unless there was something special about it, but the people in last Sunday's scene could definitely use those logs)

Autumn

  1. Scaring mortals away from someplace they shouldn't be
  2. Investigating an occult Mystery
  3. Scenes where your character's behavior is driven by her fear, rather than rational analysis of the situation

Winter

  1. An exceptional success on a roll to conceal your feelings
  2. Helping someone express their grief
  3. Actively covering up evidence of the supernatural from mortal eyes (above and beyond what Lost are supposed to do every day)

These are only examples and not the only things you can submit.
