Meat hooks. Hanging slabs of terrifyingly unidentifiable flesh. Hours of bloody practice.

Game Instructions: This will earn you some Second Chances, at the cost of Wounds.

Success

Blood in the gutter

The meat grows tender. Your hands grow hard. Your punches will shatter bone and rupture blood vessels. Though it might be a while before you can grip a pen again.

Success Instructions: Hard-Earned Lessons offer you Second Chances on Dangerous checks. You can use Second Chances to retry a failed check – but you must choose to spend them before attempting it. If you fail, you get another shot. You lose the Second Chance either way.

Second Chances are particularly useful for branches that you can only attempt once, or where failure would set you back to some degree. You may find these useful in these final stages of the fighting rings.

You can also spend Second Chances in Your Social Engagements to improve your skills.
