Here's a free peek at a Feng Shui book that will probably never happen: One alternative rule to the feng shui site XP issue to have your players attune to other stuff: their family members, their job, their house, whatever. These things then become involved in the adventures and, if they're protected, honored, and rescued, the player earns extra XP for them. If they're killed, dishonored, or destroyed, the player loses his bonus XP (and only his bonus XP). You will find no better example of this happening than the Lethal Weapon movies. Murtaugh is fully attuned from the first movie: wife, kids, house, etc. In each movie, that stuff comes under some sort of attack. In time, even the other PCs -- Riggs, Leo Getz -- attune to the Murtaughs and their stuff. In Die Hard and Die Hard 2, John McClane is attuned to his wife. In Die Hard With a Vengeance, he's a man going through the pain of a lost attunement. This kind of attunement rule encourages the characters to behave a little bit more like real people with lives outside of the explosions and all that. What other action movie examples of attunement can we think of? word, Will Hindmarch Feng Shui Line Developer
