The Eagle: A Crime Odyssey [Ørnen: En krimi-odyssé]

FATE: The Eagle: A Crime Odyssey [Ørnen: En krimi-odyssé]

Draft 1.1 August 19, 2013 – Blue Tyson

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0383164/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eagle_%28TV_series%29

From an award winning series of three seasons about a Danish international crime investigating unit which takes them to Sweden, Norway, Russia and more. A unit with defined specialties that gets involved with drugs, trafficking, terrorism, gangs, spies, fraud, prostitution and other serious international crime.

A squad you could also drop into a modern day story that is similar as international NPC allies. Also certainly fitting this genre that you could cap the skills at 3, reducing the numbers as appropriate.

The Dark Is Rising

FAE: The Dark is Rising


Draft 1.0 - August 19, 2013 - Blue Tyson
A Newbery Medal winning children's book series by Susan Cooper, with Arthurian, Celtic and Norse mythological and fantasy themes, set in England and Wales.  The old theme of the struggle between Dark and Light, manipulating humanity from the outside.
A couple of prophetic poems foreshadow the events of the five book sequence.
The Dark is Rising
	When the Dark comes rising, six shall turn it back;

	Three from the circle, three from the track;

	Wood, bronze, iron; water, fire, stone;

	Five will return, and one go alone.
	Iron for the birthday, bronze carried long;

	Wood from the burning, stone out of song;

	Fire in the candle-ring, water from the thaw;

	Six Signs the circle, and the grail gone before.
	Fire on the mountain shall find the harp of gold

	Played to wake the Sleepers, oldest of the old;

	Power from the green witch, lost beneath the sea;

	All shall find the light at last, silver on the tree.
Grail Poem
	On the day of the dead, when the year too dies,

	Must the youngest open the oldest hills

	Through the door of the birds, where the breeze breaks.

	There fire shall fly from the raven boy,

	And the silver eyes that see the wind,

	And the light shall have the harp of gold.
	By the pleasant lake the Sleepers lie,

	On Cadfan’s Way where the kestrels call;

	Though grim from the Grey King shadows fall,

	Yet singing the golden harp shall guide

	To break their sleep and bid them ride.
	When light from the lost land shall return,

	Six Sleepers shall ride, six Signs shall burn,

	And where the midsummer tree grows tall

	By Pendragon’s sword the Dark shall fall.
	Y maent yr mynyddoedd yn canu,

	ac y mae’r arglwyddes yn dod.

	(The mountains are singing, and the Lady comes.)

	--Susan Cooper

NAMED CHARACTERS
The Lady
The most powerful Old One.
The Sleepers
A high quality group of knights from Arthurian Times.
Pendragon
King of the Britons, cf Bran's dad.
Farmer Dawson
An Old One local to Will's area.
John Wayland Smith
Old One who is probably the blacksmith of legend.
ARTIFACTS

The Grail
Complete with ancient secret writing.
The Harp
Magic negater and Sleeper controlling instrument.
The Crystal Sword
Eirias, a sword that flames when the Dark is around.  In an invisible scabbard, often.
The Book of Grammarye
Must be read by an Old One like Will to gain access to all their powers. Protected in a human proof magical clock.
The Doors
A space-time warping Old One teleport portal.
Midsummer Tree
Blooming every several hundred years, the silver flower from which enables the holder to cast the opposition side out of Time.
MAGIC
Three types:
Old Magic - that of the Light and the Dark
The various agents of either sides can use their abilities in a variety of ways, including to hide their activities from humans.  Generally to be approached as a Create Advantage.
Wild Magic - from primal forces and entities
To gain access to aid or information here will generally require a Challenge.
High Magic - The most powerful kind
To gain access to aid or information here will generally require a Challenge and a Contest.
PLAYING THE GAME
Old Ones have superpowers but should not be using them when NPC humans will get in the way, keeping a lid on.  Use will also attract enemies from the other side.  In scenes this will mean the Old Ones are decoys and defenders as the humans try to achieve the actual goals as is often the case in the series.
Play Tweaks
1. A possible away to approach this is that being an Old One costs refresh and Old Magic stunts cost Fate Points to use, keeping the magic low key and Light-Dark conflicts short.
2. Give human characters extra refresh is another possibility to reflect their pivotal role.  A bit Dresden Files either of these.
3. Instead, have Old One magic use of any significant level cost multiple Fate Points.
