Meeting an Omen

[kihou]

This is a sidequest I drew up for Rinley Sosunov in my GMD game, because I wanted some build-up around the Death Wolf now that Sessily's been kidnapped, leading up to Rinley and the wolf teaming up.

Meeting an Omen (20)

There's an ominous presence in your life—an animal that seems to be following you around, a spirit, a ghost—that you can't seem to escape. It worries you, freaks you out. It reminds you of something you don't want to think about. You wish it would just go away.

But it needs you for something. Or perhaps, though you don't realize it yet, you need it.

Quest Flavor

1/chapter, you can earn a bonus XP towards this quest when:

• The omen appears in an impossible or at least highly improbable location.
• You go to ridiculous lengths in a futile attempt to escape or avoid the omen.
• You mistake something ordinary or innocuous as the omen.
• You propose a theory about what the omen or its appearance means.
• Your preoccupation leads you to shift a conversation to what the omen represents.
