I was onboard until I found out that I can’t name my pastamancer Fetuccini Alfredo
That was my first thought, as well. Complete with a wave of nostalgia, of course.
❌ Persuasion
✅ Dickerin’
Yeah, this is peak PbtA stat energy, although Gumption, Chutzpah, and Moxie are all pretty similar. I’d probably make the stats Gumption, Childlike Wonder, The Cut of My Jib, and A Certain Je Ne Sais Quoi, with Moxie and Chutzpah as held tokens or similar for certain playbooks, e.g.
Chutzpah: When you act with extreme audacity and roll +Gumption, you may reroll the lower die. If you do, the GM tells you the consequences for your brazen behavior (basically a specialized Devil’s Bargain from Blades)
Moxie: When you roll +Gumption and score a 10+, hold 1 Moxie. You may spend held Moxie to increase the result of a future roll, 1 for 1.
Chutzpah is one of the stats in Crash Pandas! Along with Alacrity, Ferociousness, and Rotundness.
Gumshoe!
The names are different but these map pretty well to the Approaches in FATE.
