22. Grit
22. An enjoyable moment of grit PCs did or did not tough out.
Sometimes it’s fun to play the muscle. Especially when the system and group work to make that feel valid and badass.
Playing the bodyguard for a Rebel cell in Star Wars (d6 Revised) in the hold of a stolen AT-AT full of thermal detonators our pilot was driving towards a recently unearthed Sith temple to blow it up. A Sith Adept with Temple Of Doom style killer hands jumped into the hold to stop us. None of the PCs had any Force so this was not going to be a fair fight. I charged him, grabbed his wrists and bull rushed him back out the open side door, just catching the ledge and hauling myself up. The Adept jumped back up - and that was when he discovered that while I was wrestling him out the cell’s thief had slipped a detonator into his robes.
