Wrathful Beast
Your anger turns you into a terrifying beast. Literally. While you're in the inner world, whenever you're angry you transform into your bestial form until you either leave or clear the condition. While angry in the outer world, you get a subtle hint to your bestial form: your teeth grow sharp, eyes change colour, or something else of the sort.
Describe what your bestial form looks like: _____.
Choose one feature of your bestial form: impenetrable hide or scales, mighty wings, elemental attacks, inhuman speed, supernatural sense, paralyzing venom, shifting form.
Social Circle: Star Athlete

Otherwise, your social circle is a group of other athletically-minded students like yourself. Archetypes can include: team captain, future pro athlete, rising star freshman, dead weight, and cheerleader.
Whenever you roll a 10+ on a feat of athletic skill or physical strength, gain a string on one teen that witnessed your action. On a 12+ you can choose any one witness.
Once per session, when you mark angry, you can lock your eyes with someone to get a string on them.

- If they stay quiet, they mark a condition and you lose all strings on them as you break their trust.
- If they fight back, they gain a string on you as the two of you cause a scene
