[UA] The End of the World, and so on.

If you were to try doing UA like a traditional rpg setting.  Not being able 
to let other people take risks for you (the entropomancer taboo) makes being 
part of a team a bitch.  Someone else is taking point, that's a risk someone 
else is taking for you.  Good bye charges.  Say you take point and let 
someone else watch the base, they are taking the risk that someone will get 
crazy on the base while everyone else is gone.  Goodbye charges.  To 
"surrender" to risk in the ritual manner magick demands while keeping taboo 
requires the entropomancer to be a control freak while taking crazy chances.
