Kudos and Artha Awards

#1 Post by Marullus »

Making this a placeholder thread. I will award Artha on a rolling basis. If you'd like to recognize another player for their role in a scene, feel free to post here with a link to that thread to give them the compliment. In addition to basking in the accolades of your peers, I will periodically announce awards from them. Placing these kudos here also memorializes them and keeps the IC play threads a little cleaner. :)
Humor (Fate)
A fate point is earned if a player can stop the table dead with humor
while in character. Dramatic play gets even greater rewards. See
Embodiment and Moldbreaker below.

Right Skill, Right Time (Fate)
Lastly, if a character has the right skill (when no one else does) to keep
the story moving, he should be rewarded with a fate point. Consider it
a reward for clever character burning. Keep this award rare.

Embodiment (Persona)
When a player captures the mood of the table perfectly and further
drives the story onward, one persona point is awarded. Moments like
great speeches, desperate decisions or gruesome revenge fall into this
category. This is a tough award to get, as a player really must go above
and beyond in his roleplaying.

Workhorse (Persona)
Being the workhorse character-the most relied upon in a given
scenario-is worth a persona point. This is for the mundane stuff -- having
that piece of gear to make a scene go, having that skill to get
the other character safely through danger and just generally slaving
away behind the scenes to make it all work.

MVP (Persona)
Being voted the "most valuable player" for a scenario earns a persona
point. MVP is for the character who drives the story to its conclusion,
the character who shines in the last moments and about whom
everyone agrees, "Damn, we couldn't have done it without him!"
