This is the first L&F hack I've looked at so far! And the first submitted to the jam (chronologically), so kudos for that. I really like that the two stats here are opposites, but you'd still roll for them in similar circumstances -- that's a key thing that I think some folks miss about the system, and you nailed it.

Favourite details: The aesthetic section is basically all gold -- really fun ideas in very few words. I also really dig the character goals -- especially the one that preoccupies the psychic with their own mystery. As a last prompt callout, "do nothing, really" for the overarching plot is a great inversion, and I love the idea that everyone's making a fuss over an arcane nothing. Ties well into the psych-ish direction.

Maybe next time: The rules are just a little small and the background is just a little too high-contrast for easy reading (for me!). Love seeing folks playing with cool formatting, but I would've been happy with something a little bit less busy.

Thank you for sharing your work with us!
