🎸 Role Ability: Charismatic Impact (Rank 4)
Your role ability lets you turn strangers into fans and ask fans to do things for you.
Step 1: Make Fans (Outside Combat Only)
Pick someone (or a group) who doesn’t actively hate you and perform, speak, or charm them.
Roll: Charismatic Impact (4) + 1d10
| Target | DV to Beat |
|---|
| Single person | 8 |
| Small group (up to 6) | 10 |
| Huge group | 12 |
✅ Success = They become your fan!
❌ Fail = Can’t try again on these people for a week.
Step 2: Ask Fans for Favors
Once someone is a fan, you can ask them for things. At Rank 4:
| Single Fan (DV 8) | Small Group (DV 10) | Huge Group (DV 12) |
|---|
| Major favors: buy you meals, give rides, introduce you to important people | Hang out with you, provide party favors for free | Buy your merch and music |
Where You Can Play
At Rank 4, you can get gigs at well-known clubs (but not the hottest ones in the city).
