Qamp Classes

These are the Additional Homebrew Classes available for Qamp Candela, along with any other Illuminated worlds games approved by the GM.

Weird: Goth

Actions: Sens 2, Focus 1, Read 1, Hide 1

Drives: Intuition 2, Cunning 1

Gilded: Sense

Illumination Keys: Embrace the Darkness, Make Them Squirm, Be Morbidly Curious

Gear: Creepy Poetry Book, Eyeliner, Voodoo Doll (Soak 1 Bleed)

Abilities:

Not On My Watch - When Bleed threatens to harm your circle, you always know first. You can spend 1 Intuition Drive to protect another circle member from its initial effects - and describe how you knew. On a success with a complication, you may instead take the consequence yourself to shield the group.

Graveyard Humor - Three times per session, you can crack a dark or unsettling joke to cut the tension and gain 1 Drive in Nerve or Cunning.

Morbid Fascination - Gain +1d when studying or interacting with the grotesque, creepy, or macabre.

Shadows Like Me - When you hide in dim or eerie places, spend 1 Drive (Intuition) to avoid notice — even from things that do not use eyes to see.

I Got a Bad Feeling - When you’re about to walk into danger, you may spend 1 Drive (Intuition) to ask the GM: “What here is about to go wrong?”

• You receive a cryptic but useful hint about immediate peril.
• If you act on it, gain +1d on your next roll to avoid or resist that danger.

Scholar: Scout

Actions: Survey 2, Focus 1, Move 1, Control 1

Drives: Intuition 1, Cunning 2

Gilded: Survey

Illumination Keys: Lead the Way, Be Prepared, Learn Something New

Gear: Trusty Compass, Scouter’s Field Guide, First Aid Kit (Soak 1 Body)

Abilities:

Always Prepared - Once per assignment, declare you have exactly the right tool, badge skill, or gadget to handle a situation. Spend 1 Drive (Cunning or Intuition) to make it usable immediately.

Eagle Eye - When you take a moment to carefully observe, spend 1 Drive (Cunning) to ask the GM one question about your surroundings that must be answered truthfully.

Quick Fix - When something is broken, jammed, or otherwise failing, you can spend 1 Drive to patch it together just long enough to work for the rest of the scene. Afterwards, it fails spectacularly.

Into the Thick of It - Gain +1d when you’re the first to climb, crawl, swim, or otherwise throw yourself into a dangerous environment. If others follow you, they gain +1d on their first roll there.

Gear: Walkman w/ Mixtape (Soak 1 Brain), Compact Mirror, Polaroid Camera

Abilities:

Center of Attention - Once per session, you can draw everyone’s eyes (including enemies) to you. Gain +1d to keep their focus on you.

So Last Season - When you insult, intimidate, or undermine someone socially, spend 1 Drive (Cunning or Nerve) to inflict a temporary condition like flustered, insecure, or hesitant. (Reduces the stakes of a roll by 1 level.)

Golden Child - Gain +1d when appealing to authority figures (counselors, adults, townies). On a mixed success, you can transfer the consequence to your reputation instead (rumors, jealousy, resentment).

Rally the Clique - Spend 1 Cunning Drive to inspire, coax, or pressure your peers into action. All PCs present add Drive from Cunning or Intuition, depending on the tone of your rally.

Whisper Network - Once per assignment, you may ask the GM: “What are people saying about this?” and receive a useful rumor, secret, or bit of gossip—true or not.

Gilded: Move

Illumination Keys: Prove Yourself, Carry the Team, Make it a Competition

Abilities:

Never Say Die - Once per session, ignore the first Body mark or physical consequence you would take. You keep going like nothing happened… at least until the scene ends.

Take One for the Team - When you take a consequence on behalf of someone else, gain 1 Drive (Nerve).

Showoff - Spend 1 Drive (Nerve) to attempt an outrageous physical feat: vaulting, climbing, lifting, or throwing beyond normal limits. On a Critical Success, you impress or intimidate everyone watching with no consequences. On a Regular Success, you impress but sustain a Body mark, on a Failure you take 2 Body marks and are ridiculed.

Adrenaline Rush - When your Body track has at least 1 mark, gain +1d on rolls that rely on raw strength or speed.

Bold as Brass - Gain +1d when you lie to authority figures or talk your way out of trouble. On a failure, you take a social condition instead of the group.

Saboteur - When you tamper with equipment, supplies, or a plan, spend 1 Intuition Drive to ensure it malfunctions at the most dramatic or chaotic moment. Explain what happens when the failure occurs.

Can’t Catch Me - Once per assignment, when you run, climb, or dodge out of danger, you may spend a Nerve Drive to reroll.

Tech Whisperer - Gain +1d when operating, repairing, or sabotaging camp equipment, electronics, or vehicles.

Hack the System - Once per assignment, when faced with a locked, coded, or otherwise inaccessible system, you may declare a vulnerability you “noticed earlier.” Spend 1 Drive (Cunning or Intuition) to exploit it and explain how you came upon this weakness.
