Kari Coldsteel

Kari counts as two Temp Agency Cheerleaders. In addition, if her team cannot set up 11 players at the start of a drive, Kari may decide to “show ‘em how it’s done!”. Her team’s coach can choose to set her up as part of the team. If they do so, she counts as part of the team for the duration of the drive, and no longer counts as two Temp Agency Cheerleaders. When the drive ends, Kari is Sent-off. You cannot Argue the Call or use a Bribe to prevent this. She will play no further part in the game – she does not count as any Temp Agency Cheerleaders, and she cannot be used in a later drive.

When this player performs a Block action (on its own or as part of a Blitz action), if the nominated target has a higher Strength characteristic than this player before counting offensive or defensive assists but after applying any other modifiers, roll a D6 and add this player’s Strength characteristic to the result. If the total is higher than the target’s Strength characteristic, this player increases their Strength characteristic to be equal to that of the target of the Block action, before countingoffensive or defensive assists, for the duration of this Block action.

If this player has another Skill that allows them to perform more than one Block action, such as Frenzy, they must make a Dauntless roll before each separate Block action is performed.

Every time this player performs a Block action (on its own or as part of a Blitz action), they must follow-up if the target is pushed back and if they are able. If the target is still Standing after being pushed back, and if this player was able to follow-up, this player must then perform a second Block action against the same target, again following-up if the target is pushed back.

If this player is performing a Blitz action, performing a second Block action will also cost them one square of their Movement Allowance. If this player has no Movement Allowance left to perform a second Block action, they must Rush to do so. If they cannot Rush, they cannot perform a second Block action. 

Note that if an opposition player in possession of the ball is pushed back into your End Zone and is still Standing, a touchdown will be scored, ending the drive. In this case, the second Block action is not performed.

A player with this Skill cannot also have the Grab skill.

When a Both Down result is applied during a Block action, this player may choose to ignore it and not be Knocked Down, as described on page 57.

If this player wishes to use a team re-roll, roll a D6. If you roll equal to or higher than the target number shown in brackets, this player may use the team re-roll as normal. Otherwise, the original result stands without being re-rolled but the team re-roll is lost just as if it had been used. This Trait must still be used if the player is Prone or has lost their Tackle Zone.
