Dead Man’s Hand: Rogues’ Gallery – Dolores Wood

So far I have looked at Maeve Newton and Calamity Jane, lastly for now we have Dolores Wood. I have chosen to paint her with a facial scar, which she received when her father was murdered.

From the Store page Dolores Wood has the following write up.

She costs 4 Rep to add to a gang, and has starting stats similar to a standard Dude. As her write up says, each time she receives an Ace or picture card her abilities level up, not only that so do her stats, by level 3 she has the stats of a Boss, but of course to get there you need to give her 2 Aces/Picture cards for initiative during the game.

Her level 1 ability is “Reveries” – this allows an unactivated Delores to Burn her activation in order to avoid going out of action.

Level 2 is “These Violent Delights” – this can be used once per turn and as an oddity it can be chosen to be used at any time to enable Delores to temporarily get the stat of an opposition character with in 20cm, she gets that value for the rest of the turn.

Level 3 is “There’s a Path for Everyone” – again once per turn and at any point during the turn all friendly characters within 20cm of Delores can use one of her stats for the rest of the turn, remember by this level Delores also has the stats of a boss so this is very powerful.

So as we have seen each of the Rogues has a slightly different mechanic and as such will have different impact on play. I look forward to trying these out and also encountering the other Rogues.

Don’t forget that to date there are 14 available each have hints to their abilities on their relevant store page.
