It is becoming apparent that one of my coplayers is on the other side of the classpecting bug. They're a Witch of Waste. I've been making up details of how it might work (It's surprisingly good for RP), but I'm worried my bullshit will lead them to a quick-er death. A professional's analysis would help.
A Witch befuddles, and a Waste basically tears shit up on a fundamental scale. So I have two theories as to what would happen.
1) They’re supposed to change the status quo slowly, doing weird stuff until the Session literally bellies up from the sheer wackiness. All in all, that combination is somewhat like what a Muse does. Very interesting for future discussion…
2) The second theory is that their Cataclysm will be hella weird. Most Cataclysms are stuff like “your souls are swapped”, “Prospit needs to win the war but they’re still hard-coded to lose” and the like. She’ll get something weirder like “the game’s metaphor of Chess is now more like Snakes and Ladders” or “PERMANENT OCTOROON RANGOON”. So good fucking luck with that.
(On a sidenote, the Classpect Assignment for a Witch and a Waste are surprisingly similar. Witches are weird but don’t want to be seen as weird, while Wastes don’t want to be acknowledged at all. That’s an interesting implication for her troubles…)
