Young heroes often leave themselves vulnerable. They open themselves up and find themselves aﬀected by the words of people they thought they could ignore. That’s you taking Inﬂuence over someone. You’re ﬂagging that the PCs don’t have as much control over their own emotions as they might want, and that they don’t always get to pick and choose whose words matter to them."Sureshot, you try to pierce Champion’s mask, but you’re kinda distracted—this is Champion! “It’s okay to be a little starstruck,” he says, noticing the look on your face. “I always like meeting a fan.” He thinks you’re just a fan! He takes Inﬂuence over you, but he already had it—shift your Mundane up, and your Savior down.
