\leftbanner{Predilection}

\begin{optfeature}[Lore stat: +WIS]{Living}
  Your curios are living creatures, capable of thinking and acting on
  their own---birds, bugs, dinosaurs, plants. When you use
  \move{Keeper of Curios}, the curio you pull out can function
  remotely, although it has a mind of its own and might not
  listen. You can command it to act on its own by Defying Danger with
  +WIS.
\end{optfeature}

\begin{optfeature}[Lore stat: +CHA]{Magical}
  Your curios are mystical things---wands, crowns, cards, games. You
  have grown used to the feel of being in their presence.  Whenever a
  magical effect happens close by, you can feel it. You know roughly
  which direction it happened in, how far away it was, and a very
  vague idea of the nature of the effect.
\end{optfeature}

\begin{optfeature}[Lore stat: +INT]{Mundane}
  Your curios are practical in nature---clothing, weaponry, gadgets,
  food. When you gain this Predilection, choose a type of resource:
  adventuring gear, weapons, ammo, bandages, or rations. When you
  spend a minute looking through your collection, restock 1-use of the
  chosen resource.
\end{optfeature}

\ 

\leftbanner{Drive}

\begin{optfeature}{Holding the Key}
  Keep dangerous things away from those who would abuse them.
\end{optfeature}

\begin{optfeature}{Money and Fortune}
  Endanger yourself or your friends for the sake of riches.
\end{optfeature}

\begin{optfeature}{Show-Off}

\rightbanner{Starting Moves}

\begin{basicmove}{Keeper of Curios}
  You keep a collection of strange and rare curiosities, which follow
  some sort of theme---masks, small dinosaurs, mechanical replicas of
  insects. Your collection is \weight{5}, and contains a variety of
  useful things collected throughout your travels.

  \directive{Record your collection's Theme}: \blank

  \directive{Choose one or two to describe your collection's Look:}

  \begin{quote}
    \textit{Amazing, Bizarre, Complex, Historic, Impractical,
      Mysterious, Simple, Surreal, Whimsical}
  \end{quote}

  When you \condition{take a few moments to dig through your collection
    for something useful}, describe what you're looking for and what
  you want it to do. You can potentially have anything on hand, but
  the GM will tell you one to four of the following:

  \begin{itemize}
  \item It is either consumable or faulty, and will only work once
  \item It was not intended to be used for thisq
  \item It will take a lot of time and effort to use properly
  \item It won't work unless you \blank
  \item The curio's effects are incredibly specific
  \item You get something close to what you want, but not quite
  \item You'll need help from \blank to use it safely
  \end{itemize}

\end{basicmove}
\

\begin{basicmove}{Curiosity}
  When you \condition{put yourself at risk to check something out},
  roll +Lore. \onHit, ask the GM any one question related to the
  risks. \onSuccess, the GM will answer it, as clearly as the
  circumstances allow. \onPartial, the GM will tell you what more you
  need to do to find the answer yourself.
\end{basicmove}
\

\begin{basicmove}{Make It Count}
  When you \condition{use up the last use of a piece of gear}, it has
  +1 to all numeric values attached to it and all rolls made to use
  it. When you \condition{use a piece of gear without limited uses,
    such as a weapon or a shield}, you can destroy it during use to
  take +1 to all numeric values attached to it and all rolls made to
  use it.

  \textit{\textbf{Examples}: The last piece of pipeleaf gives +2 to
    Parley instead of +1. The last arrow gives +1 to Volley and +1 to
    damage. The last poultice heals 8 HP instead of 7. The last ration
    heals you +1 when you Make Camp. If you destroy your sword during
    use, you take +1 to Hack \& Slash and +1 to damage with it. If you
    destroy your shield or your armor during use, it provides +1 to
    armor for the attack.}
\end{basicmove}
\

\begin{basicmove}{Wealth and Taste}
  When you \condition{make a show of flashing around a valuable
    possession}, choose an NPC present. They will do anything they can
  to obtain your item or one like it.

\widebanner{Advanced Moves}

\begin{multicols}{2}
\firstAdvances

\begin{amove}{Always Bring a Spare}
  When you \condition{buy or find new equipment with limited uses
    (ammo, gear, bandages, etc)}, it comes with one extra
  \itag{use}. \condition{When the GM tells you that something you
    gained using Keeper of Curios has only one use}, it has two uses
  instead.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Expanded Collection}
  Choose a second Predilection option. You gain the move associated
  with that Predilection. You do not gain the associated Lore stat.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Happy Salesman}
  When you \condition{offer trinkets and curios in addition to
    whatever leverage you have for \move{Parley}}, roll +Lore instead
  of +CHA. In addition, you can always demand trinkets and curios as
  additional payment for services rendered.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Healthy Competition}
  You have a rival. The two of you have been competing for so long
  that you've developed a sort of camaraderie, but you can't trust
  them as far as you can throw them. Wherever you go, your rival is
  surely not far behind. When you \condition{turn to your rival for
    aid}, they will help you, but you owe them a favor. They'll decide
  when it is time to collect.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Identify}
  When you \condition{spend some time and safety testing and anaâlyzing
    something}, the GM will tell you what it does and how you use it.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Just What I Needed}
  When you \condition{loot for supplies}, you will always find 1 use
  of ammo, adventuring gear, bandages, weaponry, or any other basic
  equipment you need, if it would be remotely plausible.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Life of the Party}
  \onMassiveSuccessFor{Carouse}, choose as many options as you
  like. People will talk about this party for years to come, and
  you've become famous as a local celebrity. Your name will carry
  weight around here from now on.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Lucky Charm}
  You have a blessed charm that grants you great luck. When you
  \move{Make Camp}, set your Luck to 3. When you \condition{roll a
    6-}, you may spend 1-Luck and re-roll. \condition{If you get a 7+
    on the re-roll}, explain how you succeeded only through sheer
  luck. However, your luck can run out. When you \condition{hold
    0-Luck}, you take \ongoing{-1} to all rolls until you gain more.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Obsessive Dabbler}
  Gain one non-multiclass move from any class list. Choose the move as
  if you were one level lower than you are, unless that move is
  related to your Predilections. \textit{Example: a Magical
    Predilection taking The Witch's Broomstick.}
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{World of Pure Imagination}
  When you \condition{spend an entire day setting up}, you do not need
  to spend money to use the Carouse move. When you Carouse, take +Lore
  to the roll.
\end{amove}

\vfill\null
\columnbreak

\secondAdvances

\begin{amove}{Complete Collection}
\moveRequires{Expanded Collection}

  Choose the final Predilection option. You gain the move associated
  with that Predilection. You do not gain the associated Lore stat.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Connoisseur}
  When you \condition{determine that something recently found is
    particularly valuable}, describe what about it makes it
  valuable. You can add or remove any one tag from it, or you can
  describe some specific function it has that other things like it do
  not have.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Healthy Friendship}
\moveRequires{Healthy Competition}

  You and your rival have come to terms with each
  other. \condition{When you gain this move}, gain 1-Rivalry. When you
  \condition{come to your rival's aid}, gain 1-Rivalry.  When you
  \condition{are in trouble}, you may spend 1-Rivalry to have your
  rival show up just in time to either save the day (and steal the
  show), or take dramatic action to tip the odds in your favor. The GM
  will tell you how.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Mental Fortitude}
  When you \condition{\move{Defy Danger} with your Lore stat}, on a
  12+, you succeed beyond all expectations. The GM will offer you a
  better outcome, a moment of genius, or a golden opportunity.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Obsessive Initiate}
  Gain one non-multiclass move from any class list. Choose the move as
  if you were one level lower than you are, unless that move is
  related to your Predilections.
\end{amove}

  When you use \move{Keeper of Curios}, after the GM gives you the
  curio's conditions, you may veto one of them.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Speaker of Curios}
  Sometimes, when you speak to your collection or anything like your
  collection, you get the feeling they really do listen to you. When
  you \condition{command something that falls under your Collection's
    Theme to take a specific action}, roll +Lore.  \onSuccess, it
  bends to your will, following your command as well as it can, even
  if it is normally incapable of taking such an action. \onPartial, it
  does it, but not very well, not how you expected, or with
  consequences---the GM will tell you what happens.
\end{amove}

\begin{amove}{Supremely Lucky}
\moveRequires{Lucky Charm}

  When you \move{Make Camp}, set your luck to 4 instead of
  3. When you \condition{would take damage}, you may spend 1-luck to
  prevent that damage. If you do, describe the comedic, contrived, or
  outright miraculous circumstances that saved you from harm.
