Sex Move

After having sex with someone, replace


your current sex move with theirs,
adding this sentence to the end of it.
Darkest Self
Your body is a prison. You dont belong
inside of it. You need to put it in harms
way, and make it suer, just like its
made you suer. Theres got to be a
way to cut yourself out of it. You need
to meet your makers, and hold them
accountable for what theyve done to
you. To escape your Darkest Self, you
must come face to face with someone
who feels more trapped than you do.
Advancement
Take another Hollow move.
Take another Hollow move.
Take a move from another Skin.
Take a move from another Skin.
Youve found your Hollow
Siblings.
Add 1 to Hot (max 3).
Add 1 to Cold (max 3).
Add 1 to Volatile (max 3).
Add 1 to Dark (max 3).
Playing The Hollow
Confused, powerful, unstable. The
hollow has no past: either theyre a
fabricated being (Dawn Summers,
Frankenstein), or their powers have
lain dormant until now (River, Carrie).
Theyre a blank and spooky slate, and
their moves are all about revealing
new powers.
The Hollow has no past and no
identity. As a result, social cues and
social labelling become important for
The Hollow to pay attention to. Thats
why a number of The Hollows moves
draw a benet out of Conditions - A
Blank Canvas, Better than Nothing, and
This Body Has No Meaning.
A Blank Canvas allows you to prove
people right - whatever Conditions
they label you with, you can gain a
mechanical benet from living up
to those expectations and labels. For
example, if you are given the
Condition spaz, you can gain a
benet from sporadically lashing out
physically at someone.
The eects of Metamorphosis are
permanent. If you switch your stats,
they remain switched. The only way
to reverse the eect is to gaze into the
abyss and choose the stat-switching
option again.
If you have sex with an NPC, the
MC can choose to create something
appropriate for you to replace your sex
move with. If they dont, your move
remains exactly as it stands.
The Hollow
They set out to make something from
nothing. Its not clear whether they
succeeded or not. See, it turns out
theres a lot of grey area between
something and nothing.
Youre alive, but youre not real. You
dont have a soul. You dont have
childhood memories, because you
dont have a childhood. You dont
have parents; you have makers. And
those makers forgot to give you a
place in the world.
Name
Choose a name:
Adam, Baby, Bryce, Dorothy, Eva,
Franklin, January, Max, Nixon,
Raymond, Summer
A name from creation myth, a
promethean name, A name that
implies beginnings, a fake name, A
plain name
Look
Circle one in each list:
immaculate, disheveled, haunted, sti
shifty eyes, soulless eyes, wide eyes,
vacant eyes, desperate eyes
Origin
Circle one:
homunculus, the product of a wish,
a notion given human form, part
machine, once an animal, once a
demon

Your Backstory
Youve been taking your social cues
from someone, and doing so has
taught you a lot about them. Gain 2
Strings on them.
Someones seen through your
invented past, and realized its all lies.
Give them 2 Strings on you.

Other Moves
Hollow Moves
Choose two:
A Blank Canvas
When you take an action that
embodies one of the Conditions that
you have, and you allow that Condition
to inuence your sense of self, cross it
o and add 1 to your roll.
Better Than Nothing
When you gain a Condition, mark
experience.
This Body Has No Meaning
If someone deals harm to you without
taking advantage of any of your
Conditions, reduce that harm by 1.
(You must have at least one Condition
for this to apply.)
Flesh of My Flesh
When you lash out physically with your
bare hands, you do an amount of harm
equal to one more than the amount of
harm youve got marked down on your
own sheet.
Metamorphosis
When you gaze into the abyss, add this
option to the 10 up list: the visions show
what you must become, and you can
permanently switch two of your stats.
Inhuman Gaze
When you shut someone down, roll
with dark.
Mimicry
Whenever someone uses a Skin move
on you, roll with dark. On a 7 up,
temporarily gain that move, losing it
again after the rst time you use it.
On a 10 up, you may instead choose to
permanently replace a Skin move you
have with this new move.
