This a list of every term used in Furoticon. If you don't find what you're looking for here, try checking the Keywords page.
Action
An Action is a type of card that you can play only during your main step and when there is nothing to react to. When it goes off, follow the rules on the card, then put it on its owner's couch.
Action Point
Action Points (AP) are the basic points used for making moves on your turn. For example, you can spend 5 AP to draw a card, or 1 AP to refresh all your objects. A player gets 10 AP on his or her turn, plus whatever AP and GP his or her havens give. Think of Action Points as the amount of time you have to move in a turn.
Active Player
The active player is the player whose turn it is.
Additional Cost
Some cards have an additional cost. A player pays these costs at the same time he or she pays AP and GP costs.
Alteration
An Alteration is a defining type found on a Treat. An Alteration modifies an object. If the object it's modifying leaves play, the Alteration goes to its owner's couch. If the object it's targeted to modify leaves play before the Alteration goes off, the Alteration doesn't come into play. It goes to its owner's couch when it goes off.
Black Book
A black book is a deck of Furoticon cards.
Climax
To climax a Furre is to put it immediately onto its owner's couch. It can't come back into play this turn. It is not considered to have lost any SP.
Concede
To concede is to leave and lose the game immediately. A player may do this at any time.
Controller
The controller of a card is the player who played the card, unless otherwise changed by gameplay. The controller is the only player who is allowed to use the skills of a card or object, or swing or put out with a Furre.
Cost
The cost to play a card is the AP and GP symbols in the upper right corner of a card. The cost of an activated skill is anything to the left of the colon. A player cannot play an activated skill unless he or she can pay the cost in full.
Couch
A couch is a player's discard pile.
Defending Player
A defending player is any player that the active player has chosen to swing at.
Defining Type
Some cards have a defining type, which can be found directly after a type. As of now, the defining types Alteration and Home have special rules associated with them. All other defining types are found on Furres, and they are also known as Furre types. There are no special rules for Furre types, but Furre types interact with rules that look at a Furre's Furre types.
Discard
To discard a card is to put a card from the hand to the couch. Unless otherwise stated, a player may choose which card or cards to discard. If a player does not have enough cards to discard, that player discards his or her whole hand.
Eliminate
To eliminate an object is to put it immediately onto its owner's couch. It can't come back into play this turn.
Extra Cost
An extra cost is a cost that must be paid in addition to AP and GP costs to play a card. Extra costs are passive skills and players cannot react to them. Extra costs are usually the first skill written in a skill box, and they start with the phrase, "As an extra cost to play (this card), (do this action)."
Extra Pleasure
Extra pleasure is pleasure added to the final total of pleasure given. To add extra pleasure, there must be at least 1 point of pleasure that would be given. An extra pleasure skill has the phrase, "(This Furre) gives (X) extra pleasure (in bed) (to X)."
Extra Requirement
An extra requirement is a condition that must be true at the time of paying the costs to play a card. If the requirement isn't met, the card cannot be played. If a player plays a card that has an extra requirement (and the requirement is fulfilled), but the game state changes before the card resolves, and this new game state causes the extra requirement to not be true, the card still resolves because the requirement was met at the time costs were paid. Extra requirements are usually the first skill written in a skill box, and they start with the phrase, "As an extra requirement to play (this card), (fulfill this condition)."

Furre Type
A Furre Type is a defining type found on Furre cards. There are no special rules for Furre types, but Furre types interact with rules that look at a Furre's Furre types.

React
Whenever a skill or card is played, players may react to it by playing an activated skill or a Surprise card. First the player who played the skill or card may react, followed clockwise by every other player. When each player chooses to not react, the most recent skill or card played goes off.

Search
To search a black book (or other pile of cards) is to look through it and find the described card. If the skill requires a player to search for a certain type of card or a named card, the player doesn't have to find it.
Skill
Any bold keyword or paragraph in the Rules Box of a Furoticon card is a skill.

SP
Stamina Points. A Furre with 0 Stamina Points climaxes and is removed from play. When a Furre is pleasured, it loses SP. SP is represented as a pink heart: 
Step

Swinging Furre
A swinging Furre is a Furre that has been placed in bed, as a swinger.
Target
A target is chosen by a player when he or she plays certain skills. A target can be a player, object, played card, card in hand, or card on a couch. If all chosen targets of a skill cease to exist before the skill goes off, the skill does nothing. As long as there is at least one chosen target when the skill goes off, the skill will have an effect. If a skill needs to know something about an object that no longer exists (e.g. it left play, it no longer fulfills the requirements on the card, etc.), use the state that the object was in just before it stopped existing.
Token
A token is an item that can be used to represent an object that isn't a card. Its owner is the person who put it into play, unless otherwise stated. If it leaves play, it stops existing.
Total Cost
The total cost of a card is the total of its AP plus its GP in the upper-right corner. For example, a card that costs 
costs 8 AP and 2 GP (FGP). 8 + 2 = 10. Therefore, the total cost is 10.

Type
Each card has a type. Its type is listed on the middle line of the card, to the left. The four types of cards are Haven, Furre, Treat, and Action.
