What happens when, for example, a PC rolls to hold steady, gets the 7-9 result, but already has the Condition terrified?

Can the player choose the "pick an option from the 10 up list but also gain the Condition terrified" but simply ignore the second part of the clause?

Or is the player barred from that choice?

Similarly with the 7-9 choices in gaze into the abyss?

Or should this be handled in the fiction instead?

I have a casino-based game coming up, and I feel it's necessary to have form of gambling-based custom move, whether in-game or meta. Of course, I'm a little brain-fried so I can't think of anything. Help!

I will owe people 1-barter! Or whatever good will 1-barter equals to!

How do other gaming groups handle healing downtime? Say that three characters have hit 6:00 and want to be narcostabbed for a week to heal up, but 1 character doesn't want to do that, and instead want to the talk to NPCs, get into fights, and generally keep playing.

Hey all, long time lurker and first time poster!

I’ve had this playbook idea bouncing around in my head, and since Luxe Eternal is callilng for playbooks, and since my group can’t seem to meet up to play AW (sad!), I figure I should throw this out into the world’s psychic maelstrom so I can excise the idea out of my head.

This playbook has not been playtested at all and is more of an exercise of my rusty design skills. Comments and criticisms welcome!

The Radio
Most normals think of the world's psychic maelstrom as this screaming, broken void hovering in the back of your brain, but the Radio, well, the Radio thinks that too, but they fuckin' believe it's a good thing. They see the maelstrom as information, just fucked up information tossed in a blender, and people’s brains as the meat for the blender. And these crazies actually think that they can and should ride this information.

To create your radio, choose name, look, stats, moves, gear, and Hx.

Names
Newsboy, Anchor, Mic, Shout Out, Feedback, Voice Over, Offscreen, Beat, Tagline, DJ, Turntable, Spin, Tape Deck, Fadeout, Blogger, Anon, Spam, Broadband, Router, Wireless

Cool+1 Hard-1 Hot=0 Sharp+1 Weird+2
Cool-2 Hard+1 Hot-1 Sharp+2 Weird+2

Paranoid weapons:

Hx
Everyone lists their characters by name, look, and outlook. Take your turn.

List the other character’s names.

Go around for Hx, on your turn:
   Tell everyone Hx-1. You keep to yourself.

On the other’s turns, choose 1 or both:
   One of them knows something or does something you really admire. Whatever number that player tells you, add +1 to that.
   One of them knows something or does something you really detest. Whatever number that player tells you, add +1 to that.
   Everyone else, you haven’t had the time to get to know them. Whatever number they tell you, subtract -1 to that.

At the end, find the character with the highest Hx on your sheet. Ask that player which of your stats is the most interesting and highlight it. The MC will have you highlight a second stat too.

Radio Moves
Receivers: You get a small stable of willing antennas. They function like willing subjects of ride the airwaves, but you gain full control of their bodies. For all intents and purposes, you are the same person as the antenna.

In order to ride an antenna, you have to manipulate them first. If successful, your body falls unconscious, and you wake up instantly in the body of the antenna. Each time you ride an antenna, everyone else changes their sheet to say Hx-3 with you.

Each antenna has a unique advantage compared to the other ones. When you ride a new antenna, choose one of the options below and cross it out:
+1 Hard
+1 Sharp
+1 Hot
+1 Cool
Once you cross out the fourth option, erase your marks and you can choose them all over again.

You can lose an antenna if they die or if they become unwilling.

[Note to the MC: Don’t forget to treat each antenna like a real person. Name them, give them desires, etc.]

Static: You can choose to roll+weird instead of roll+Hx when you interfere with someone who’s rolling.

Ride the Airwave: If you touch an unwilling or willing NPC, you can ride their senses and see and feel and taste what they see and feel and taste. It works like read a person with a roll+sharp, but you can spend your hold whenever you want to ask your questions. For each NPC that you have a hold, you suffer -1ongoing.

Remote Viewing: You don't have to be physically present to use the radio moves receivers, static, or ride the airwaves, but an NPC you have met must be physically present in the situation.

Ear-worm: During a conversation with a NPC, you can roll+weird. On a 10+, you gain 1-ongoing with them. On a 7-9, you gain +1forward with them,

Cloud sourcing: You can ask the world’s psychic maelstrom for the name of the person who can help you best with your current problem. State the problem and your proposed solution and roll+weird. On a 10+,  you get the name and +1forward if you interact with the person. On a 7-9, you get the name and +1forward, but someone else also learns the name and reason for your query. On a miss, someone else learns the info, but you don't.

Radio Special: If you and another character have sex, roll+cool. On a 10+, choose 1. On a 7-9, they choose 1. On a miss, they get to hold 1 and spend their hold at any time. As long as they have a hold, you have -1forward with them.
Choices:
 - You tell them a secret. They gain +1Hx with you.
 - They must give you something they think you want as if you had chosen that option for going aggro. They gain -1Hx with you.
 - They tell you a secret. You get +1Hx with them, but you get -1forward with them if you act on the secret.
 - Nothing else happens. It was pretty casual.
