>>7645117Plain is probably the single most overpowered lesser/micro template in the game. It might even be stronger than some major templates.
Plain are pacifists with absurdly powerful pacifism powers that completely snap the game balance in half.
For example, consider a Plain with 1 dot in Over Before It Started and 1 dot in The Consequences of Violence. Once per session, they can completely circumvent a battle by declaring themselves to be a martyr. They suffer 1 die of damage per attacker, so if there are six attackers, the Plain suffers 6 dice of damage... or a measly 2 damage on average.
Then, the encounter is over, everyone is suddenly shocked into peace. And because of that 1 dot in The Consequences of Violence, anyone who deals damage to a Plain automatically considers violence to be a breaking point *forever*.
Plain are hilariously overpowered.
