In H&H, heroes with 10 grit get a visit from the royal court's
"Aces"...which seem to be something like the betrayers mentioned recently
on the web page, living men with manitous inside.  They have both hexes and
black magic, and the hexes are cast as if the manitou was in charge, thus
always having a minimum hand of a pair. And worse, by the
description...they come in multiples.:P Gimme a killer cow, please.:)
