Causing the Tilt: Marshes occur where drainage is poor.
Ending the Tilt: Leaving the area, changing the environment.

RATTLED (CONDITION)

Effect: Take a cumulative -1 die penalty for each time this Condition is imposed.
Possible Sources: Being chased by a terrifying creature.

SPOOKED (CONDITION)
This Condition replaces the one in the rulebook.

Resolution: Escape the cause of this Condition.

SUFFOCATED (TILT)
Description: Your character cannot breathe.
Effect: Take a cumulative -1 die penalty to all rolls for every turn this Tilt is in effect. Every turn that the penalty exceeds the number of dots the character has in Stamina or Resolve (whichever is higher), they must roll Stamina as if their last Health box had been marked with Damage, or fall unconscious. Starting with the turn after the character falls unconscious, they begin taking a point of lethal damage each turn as is they were bleeding out.
Causing the Tilt: A character may be drowning, or being choked.
Ending the Tilt: This Tilt ends when the character is able to breathe again.

WEARY (CONDITION)
Description: You are tired. Not as exhausted as would impose the Fatigued Condition, but tired nonetheless. You can muddle through the haze without nodding off, but it isn’t entirely easy.
Effect: Take a -1 die penalty to all rolls, add +1 die to Clarity damage rolls.
Possible Sources: Inability to sleep due to nightmares, staying awake for 24 hours.
