[Solar System] Ongoing Environmental Adversity

<< < (2/2)

agony:
Wow Harald that's hot.  Would the Draught refresh its pool when the PC's refreshed theirs?

oliof:
That depends on how resilient you want the threat to be.

Basically, the question on NPCs refreshing Pools, be they people or abstract concepts, is not covered by the rules at all IIRC, leaving it to the aesthetic requirements of a given game.

One exception is that if you choose a given NPC to have a refresh scene with, which obviously isn't feasible with the 'threat-as-pc' model, that NPC usually gets refreshed, too, as the standard refreshment requirements are mutually applicable. If you want more modeling as SGC, see these untested ideas:

Secret of Resilience
You cannot just ignore certain things and hope they go away. For every scene this threat is ignored, it recovers one Pool Point. For every session it is ignored, it gets one free Advance to advance Pool or Abilities. You cannot buy new Abilities nor open up 0 point Pools. Prerequisites: This Secret is only available to abstract threats.

Secret of Underestimation
Some things develop in unexpected ways when left unattended for too long. Abstract threats with this Secret may add new abilities or open up 0 point Pools with Advances gained through the Secret of Resilience. Prerequisite: Secret of Resilience, only available to abstract threats.
