CHARACTER SHEET Your Character Sheet provides all the information you need to

play the game. It also provides a place to write down your cur-

rent status, weapons, armor, and equipment.

Your characteristics are used to calculate many game val-

ues but are rarely used directly. Whenever you attempt a

task that might fail, you make a skill check. The dice you roll

for this check are called your dice pool, and are based on your

rank in that skill and your characteristic. If you roll more ≥than ∂, you succeed.

Please reference these skills and descriptions of what they

do on the back of the Rulebook.

SYMBOLS AND DICE

Advantage ≤ symbols indicate a positive side effector consequence, even on a failed check. They cancel

and are canceled by Threat ∑ symbols.

Threat ∑ symbols indicate a negative side effect orconsequence, even on a successful check. They can-

cel and are canceled by Advantage ≤ symbols.

Failure ∂ symbols cancel Success ≥ symbols. Ifthere are enough Failure ∂ symbols to cancel all theSuccess ≥ symbols, the check is a failure.

Despair µ symbols count as Failure ∂ symbols (theycancel Success ≥ symbols) and may also be spent totrigger a powerful negative consequence.

Success ≥ symbols are canceled by Failure ∂ sym-bols; if there are any Success ≥ symbols left, thecheck succeeds.

Triumph ± symbols count as Success ≥ symbolsand may also be spent to trigger a powerful positive

consequence.

11 Strain represents exhaustion, mental trauma, and beingstunned. You may voluntarily suffer 2 strain to perform

an extra maneuver on your turn. Strain comes and goes more

quickly than wounds. If your Strain ever exceeds your Strain

Threshold, you pass out.

Wounds represent physical damage to your body. If you

Wounds exceeds your Wound Threshold, you are knocked

out and suffer a Critical Injury. Wounds can be recovered by the

Medicine skill and Stimpacks.

Your Soak score reduces incoming damage and can pre

vent wounds. Your Soak score is equal to the sum of you

Brawn and the Soak value of your armor.

You may suffer Crit ical Injur ies during your adventures

either when you’re knocked out by exceeding your wound

threshold or as the result of an attack. Keep track of the num

ber of Critical Injuries here. For a description of the effects of

your Critical Injuries, refer to the back cover of the Adventure

Book.

Acquiring Talents

Talents are acquired from your career talent tree. This talent tree provides a unique format for purchasing talents that comes with severaspecial rules and restrictions.

Your talent tree has four columns and three rows. The cost of eachtalent depends on the row it occupies. The topmost row of talentsare the cheapest, costing 5 experience points each. The next row’schoices cost 10 experience points each, and the third and nal row’choices costs 15 experience each.

Note that the choices on the tree are connected by a series of linesthat link some talent choices with others. When purchasing talents

you may only purchase talents you are eligible for. You are eligible toselect any talents in the rst, topmost row, plus any talents that areconnected via one of the aforementioned links to a talent you havealready acquired. Each entry on the talent tree may only be acquiredonce. Some trees have multiple entries for a single talent. This is because several of the talents may be learned repeatedly. When youlearn a talent for the second—or later—time, you gain an additionarank of the ability.

INVESTING EXPERIENCE POINTS You will occasionally receive experience from the GM as you continue to play, which can be spent to improve your character. You may

spend these experience points to increase your skills or to advance on your talent tree. Refer to page 11 of the Rulebook for more de-

tailed information.

Skill Training

The cost for training skills falls into one of two categories—career skills and non-career skills. Each skill has ve ranks oftraining available.

Training a career skill costs ve times the value of the nexthighest rank. For example, training a career skill from Rank 0(untrained) to Rank 1 requires 5 experience points. Improv-ing a Rank 1 career skill to Rank 2 requires 10 experiencepoints. Each rank must be purchased separately. This meansthat training a career skill from Rank 0 to Rank 2 costs 15experience points (5 for raising it from Rank 0 to Rank 1, then10 more for raising it from Rank 1 to Rank 2).

You can also purchase ranks in your non-career skills. Eachrank of a non-career skill costs 5 additional experience points.For example, training a non-career skill from Rank 0 (un-trained) to Rank 1 requires 10 experience points. Improvinga Rank 1 non-career skill to Rank 2 requires 15 experiencepoints, and so on.
