This Celestial Discord does not interfere with daily Essence accumulation, but it remains a headache and a half, anyway. It only appears in celestials that have been exposed to some sort of reality-warping episode in the past: thus, Odd Man Out was fairly rare before the rise of Vapula.

In game terms, the most obvious manifestation of this Discord is how it skews Interventions. At the beginning of every game session, the GM secretly rolls 666: the number rolled is the character's new favorable Intervention roll, and the reverse is the unfavorable Intervention. Thus, if the GM rolls 4,5 and CD2 for an angelic character, then until further notice the player gets a Divine Intervention on 4,5 and CD2 and an Infernal Intervention on 3,2 and CD5. A PC with this Discord must use three dice of different colors/sizes, in order to distinguish between (to use the example above) a roll of 3,2 and a roll of 2,3. The level of Discord determines how many times per game session the PC's Intervention numbers reset.

As a general rule, those with Odd Man Out are unaffected by Interventions rolled by others, for good or bad - hence the name. However, they are affected when their current favorable/unfavorable Intervention number comes up, at the GM's discretion. For example, if the above example is used, half (determined randomly) of any 4,5 and CD2 rolls made in the presence of the PC will be a Divine Intervention.

Incidentally, the GM is solemnly urged to not use the excuse of a roll of 3,3 CD3 to make the poor PC's life an exercise in insanity...

Reaction penalty: -3 per 2 levels. Add another -3 reaction modifier if the PC is currently benefiting from normally unfavorable Interventions.
