eXtradimensional - Milestones and Unlockables - Quantum Shuffle Arc

Though it may seem that Fuse is randomly jumping the team through dimensions, the truth is far more complex. Her abilities are part of the tug of war between the entity currently known as the False Phoenix and a new entity calling itself Akashika. The unlockables and milestones for this arc reflect the battle between these forces.

5/10 XP: Unlock the Phoenix Force
Jumping through dimensions bathes your team in the power of the Phoenix Force. The False Phoenix now whispers to everyone on the team, though only a few heed its call. For 5 XP,  you may steal a power from someone in the scene and use it in a roll you make. When you do, add a die of the same size to the Doom Pool. For 10 XP, you may add a Phoenix Force die of any size to any roll involving a Power Set. When you do, add a die of the same size to the Doom Pool.



Milestone: Whispers of the Phoenix
1 XP: when the False Phoenix appears to you
3 XP: when you stress someone out of a scene through mental or emotional stress
10 XP: when you sacrifice yourself to weaken the False Phoenix or become her vessel to claim the Phoenix Force for yourself




5/10: Unlock Akashika
The Akashika functions as something of a hive mind, allowing mutants willing to open their minds to work together as one. 5 XP allows you step up an asset die created for a teammate thanks to your psychic coordination. 10 XP allows you to spend a Plot Point to give an ally a dice from one of your Power Sets that can help.




Milestone: Power of the Akashika
1 XP: when you speak to someone with your brain instead of your mouth
3 XP: when your newfound psychic gifts cause more trouble than expected
10 XP: when you give yourself over to the Akashika to allow a fallen mutant take over your body permanently or reject your connection to reclaim your identity.
