Forever your shield

_{(Forever your shield in calamity and love)}

Forever your shield is a roleplaying "game" meant for a dom (gentle protective dom initialy) and sub dynamic (using the Fate Core system). The general idea is that the dom is sort of protector for his charge, the sub. Whether called into existence by a higher being or transported, he's unequivocally bound to his charge. Their bond is mysterious but very powerful. As long as the "Shield" protects and aids his "Charge", the Charge's affection and bond between them will in turn heal and restore any damage or consequences the Shield suffered. The Charge is the Hero of the story, and the Shield should never take center stage, but he can aid and abet, teach and advise, as long as the final choice rests firmly with the Charge. Any mistakes made, or consequences suffered by the Charge will always be taken by the Shield. (Anything from interposing between the "damage", taking the consequences, or overtly protective actions undertaken by the Shield to prevent failure, will cause "stress". Stress that can be restored between scenes by pleasing the Shield (and each other) ;)

Setup

Both should agree on a world and setting, the Dom should take charge of the GMing duties, and thinking up adventures, but you can (and should) work cooperatively on a setting. Most rules stay as in Fate Core. Skill list gets adapted to the setting and a few skills will get changed as detailed below. Fate points get renamed to "Bond" points. Any stress incurred by the Charge gets taken by the Shield instead (by interposition, defensive moves, magically or whatever fits the situation).

The Bond

The nature of the Bond is left up to your collective imaginations, be it Magical (a summoning? gone wrong? a djinn?...), Divine (an angel? a holy mission?...), Mythical (the Shield is on quest to protect his Charge), Diabolical (the Shield may be a bound Demon,...),... or whatever else you can think of!
