I got through a truely terrible write-up and actually did run a quick playtest last weekend. However continuing work and medical issues have severly limited my time to around to a proper write up. 
Niki’s first question was, “So, what kind of character am I making?” 
The effect of the curse transforms one of lovers into an animal for the duration of the day, while the other is transformed into a different animal during the night. The only time the two might see each other in the flesh is for a single, heartbreaking moment at dawn and dusk.
While in animal form, the person is utterly loyal to their lover, will follow them faithfully and defend them to the death. However, while processing high intelligence for an animals, they are still wholly animals in temperament, intelligence and instinct. Upon reverting to human form, they have only a fleeting recollection of their time spent as a beast.
The only way to break the spell is to force the person who cursed them to gaze upon both lovers at the same time, while both are in human form. If any of the people involved is killed, then the curse becomes permanent.
Doing Stuff beside thwacking each other…
Simply,wow. From the subscription comic HERE.If the Fireclown had won, the Dealer gets to determine what happens to the Character.
If the fireclown had taken enough 10 Physical damage points, it would be dead. If it had taken 10 Mental Points, it would be automatically unconscious/nonsensical.
If both the Fireclown and Jonny had ended the fight with 0 Combat points, the winner is determined by the side that collected the most in their X-P. Yes, I'm going to backtrack and state that Dealers should keep track of how many X-P are collected on their side as well.
Jokers – If either side is dealt a Joker, they automatically win that round. If both sides are dealt a Joker, then the side that Bids the most points, wins.
---- yeesh this is bady written. MRW.
Watched Demon Knight over the weekend and realized that it would make a pretty decent one-off scenario in any game with supernatural elements. The problem might be what to do with the Key at the end of it all if the GM does not want to make it the focus of a long running campaign with the party running from Billy Zane the whole time. The solution to this of course would be Jayda, the bar's spunky young barmaid.
The character points allocated the Combat option are now Combat Points (CPs). When the character is out of CPs, the character is defeated (exhaustion). They are also out of combat if their Physical (bodily damage) or Mental (stuns or disorientation) stats drop to zero.

So what exactly is a Trick or a Flop? The short answer is; they are whatever the player wants them to be. There is no list to choose from, players and Dealers have to come up with their own. 
Where to put your points? 
It was decreed that any young Prince who wished to become Caliph must first enter the Pyramid of Kings and remain inside, alone, for a year and a day.
The New Death and Others, by James HutchingsOvercard
As the name implies, the game is loosely based on poker and is designed to be played using Playing Cards, but D20s or D12s can be substituted with only a slight change in the odds. For the cards, Aces are worth 1, while face cards have a numerical value: Jacks are 11, Queens 12 and Kings are worth 13. How Jokers are used will be explained below. 
The world fifty years from now is not all that different from the world today. The technology is a bit smaller, a bit faster. Corporations have solved a few problems while creating a slew of new ones and governments continue to do less with more. People are still people; saving the whales on one hand, while slaughtering each other in the name of some god on the other. There have been depressions and war, peace and prosperity, fads and flops, heroes and villains, and at least six major reboots of the Batman franchise. 
Then came the Comet. No one knows who leaked the information to the press, but in less than two minutes every news feed was broadcasting that the planet was doomed. Then it was discovered that the World Government Organization had known about the Comet for almost five years and a nuclear strike had already been tried and failed, the manned mission was lost with all hands. By the time the general population found it, it was already too late and the human race had less than a month to live. 
Most dice based RPGs run on some sort of Dice+Modifier system. While the dice provide the probability, the Modifier is determined by the player. This modifier tends to be static which means that games boil down to grinding out enough experience points to raise the Modifier (as a huge simplification).
