    Thrillseeker -1?

    I saw "Thrillseeker -1" in the DW sourcebook, but I can't find it in the books I have. How does this one work?

    I would say it should work like a standard addiction, etc... If the character is presented with something exciting, no matter how hazardous, he would have to roll the usual die-roll to avoid doing it. My books are upstairs, so I can't give an exact example of the die-roll penalty, but it should follow the standard pattern for a -1 disadvantage. Examples of activities would be orbital skydiving, bungie jumping, Minoan bull-leaping and other "thrilling" activities.

    It's in the TNG PG, isn't it?

    It's in Raiders, Renegades & Rogues.

    Spend a courage point to resist temptation when faced with something thrilling, risky and/or dangerous.
    Attempts to disuade the character from seeking thrills are made at a -1 die penalty

    I hear ya, I end up making lists of where everything is !

    I had a helluva time finding some Nausicaan weapon once, thought for sure it was in RRR. Technically I guess it was, it was in the ICON Link for the book !

    Funnily enough for this one I think (without looking further) DWS has the only overlay that has Thrillseeker assigned to it.

    Thus the confusion and mad search !
