    Everyone introduces their characters by name, look, and outlook. Take your turn. List
    the other characters's names. Go around again for Hx. On your turn, choose one:
    If youre secretive and mysterious, tell everyone Hx-1.
    If youre open and friendly, tell everyone Hx+1.
    On the others turns:
    - You met one of them another time, another place, and youve got good memories of
    them. Whatever.
    - You crossed paths with one of them and you left when it got hot. Whatever number
    they tall you, ignore it.
    For everyone else, write whatever number they tell you next to their characters name.

    retire your character (to safety)

    change your character to a new type

    BARTER
    1barter will cover a month's living expenses, if your tastes aren't too
    grand. As a one-time expenditure, and very subject to availability,
    1barter might count for: a night in high luxury and company; one
    square meal each for around 30 people; a typical family's entire food
    store; the material costs of a crash resuscitation by an angel; a week's
    hire of the protective companionship of a battlebabe or gunlugger; any
    weapon, gear, or fashion not valuable or hitech; repair of a piece of
    hitech gear by a savvyhead; a year's tribute to a warlord; a month's
    maintenance and repairs for a hiperformance vehicle well-used;
    bribes, fees, and gifts sufficient to get you into almost anyone's
    presence.

    SPECIAL MOVE
    When you and another character have sex, you tell them stories of a
    distant land youve been to. The stories dont have to be true. True or
    not, if they believe you, you both mark XP and take +1-forward.

    APOCALYPSE

    WORLD

    STUFF THAT MIGHT HAPPEN


    OUTSTANDING WARRANTS
    When you leave someplace, hold +1 with it. If you leave it in a hurry,
    hold another +1. If you leave it in a bad way, hold another +1. When
    you return someplace, roll+hold with that place, then erase its hold. On
    a 10+, both. On a 7-9, one. On a miss, something good has happened
    here - good for you, good for the place, or both.
    - Theres serious problems in town; if you help them out, mark XP.
    - Theres someone, maybe multiple, that remember you unkindly. If
    you patch things over with them, mark XP.

    THE HAUNTED, HUNTED KIND


    When you stay in one place too long, roll+weird. On a 10+, choose
    two. On a 7-9, choose one.
    - Someone or something from your past catches up with you. Maybe
    its a good thing, maybe not.
    - Youre haunted by visions of your past. Take +1-ongoing until you
    clear up some unfinished business;
    - Youre haunted by visions of your future. Take +1-ongoing until you
    leave this place; mark XP when you mark XP when you do.

    MORE MOVES

    TRAVELLER MOVES

    New Friends: When you sit down to play a session, if theres at

    least one person youve never played with before, mark 1 XP. When
    you sit down to play a session, if its a new group, tell the MC a bit
    about your old home in the apocalypse world. Hell tell you about the
    group youre joining and their situation. Decide together how you got
    there and who you know. Remove and uncheck an advancement;
    because youve left some of yourself behind.
    Wander: When you first arrive in a new location, tell the MC when

    you were last here, if ever. The MC will tell you how the location has
    changed since you were last here. Name a person you met. The MC
    will tell you where to find them. Name something you left behind. The
    MC will tell you where to find it. When you return somewhere, if
    youve been gone sufficiently long (your call), do this again.
    Photographic: When you open your brain to your past, its a bit like
    opening your brain to the maelstrom, but you roll+sharp. Whatever the
    MC tells you, tell him where and when you learned it, in your past.
    Keen: Youve seen so many different people in your life that youve
    begun to understand them, just a bit. When you manipulate someone,
    but not seduce, roll +Sharp.
    Postal: When you carry a message for someone to its destination,
    mark XP. When you send a message to someone you know in another
    location, roll +Sharp. On a 10+, choose three. On a 7-9, choose two:

    - It gets there quickly and without trouble.


    - They dont ask anything of you, at least not right away.
    - It gets where you need it to go.
    - They can help you with something.
    Scrounge: When you first go somewhere new, if you look around
    for what might be useful, roll+sharp. On a 10+, the MC will tell you
    1d6 interesting things you find, easily accessible to you, more-or-less.
    On a 7-9, ask the MC about one or two things. Hell tell you if theyre
    available, and how to get them.
    Fearless: When you travel through hostile territory, roll+sharp. On a
    10+, you avoid hardship in the wild and reach your destination. On a 79, you reach your destination but the MC chooses one:

    - You run out of food.


    - You run out of some other supplies.
    - Youre fatigued and need rest (take -1 ongoing until you do).
    - Youve been followed to your destination.
    Explorer: When you go somewhere new, mark XP and roll+sharp.
    On a 10+, ask the MC three questions. On a 7-9, ask one. The MC will
    answer you as best he can.
