If a Fear effect (magical or otherwise) caused the panic, the DC is equal to the Save DC of that fear effect plus five. A crowd successfully calmed by this effect is considered Friendly to the user. |

| + | === Enhanced Evasion === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 6 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character is good at avoiding and blocking attacks. When focusing on an opponent (they may change their focus during their turn), they gain a +2 dodge bonus to AC. Against all other opponents, they gain a +1 dodge bonus. This does not apply when they are considered flat-footed. | ||

| - | * (4 points) | + | * (4 points) The character's extra limb can perform a distinct partial action. The most common example would be attacking with that limb while using a magic item, or attacking even more. |
| - | :''Special'': This Tag may be taken multiple times. Each time means one more limb. If | + | * (4 points) The character has learned how to use the extra limb well in combat. The limb counts as an off-hand, and the character gains the benefits of the Two-Weapon Fighting feat with it and their usual off-hand. |
| + | :''Special'': This Tag may be taken multiple times. Each time means one more limb. If they have it more than twice, lower the cost of all by 1 each. If they have it more than five times, two each, and ten times, three each. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Extra Attacks === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 10 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character can make an additional one attack in a standard action at their full Base Attack Bonus... ''or'', if they have two weapons, they can make an attack with each with ''no'' penalties, instead of the usual Two-Weapon Fighting penalties. When making a full attack, they still get the additional unpenalized attack on top. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (10 points, repeatable) The character make one attack with a weapon in each hand at no penalty, and make an additional attack on top. Each repeat after the first is one more additional attack, alternating weapons. | ||

| + | === Features === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 1 point | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character has cool minor features that an ordinary human wouldn't have. Examples include, but are not limited to, a homing instinct, enhanced longevity, insect-like moulting, a stomach pouch (like a kangaroo's!), electronic diagnostics equipment, a high-end gyrocompass, self-cleaning mechanisms... You get the idea. Things that aren't massively consequential, but are still kinda cool. | ||
| + | :''Special'': This attribute is repeatable. Each time it is taken represents a seperate cool minor feature. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Flight === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 7 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character is able to fly, gaining a fly speed of 50 feet (or 35 feet if carrying a medium or heavy load). They can ascend at half speed, and descend at double speed, with good maneuverability. Flight only requires as much concentration as walking, so they can attack or cast spells as normal. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | |||
| + | * (-2 points) The flight has poor maneuverability instead of good. | ||
| + | * (-3 points) reduce the fly speed by 10. | ||
| + | * (3 points, repeatable) Add 10 feet to the fly speed. | ||
| + | * (4 points) The flight has perfect maneuverability instead of good | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Force Field === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 8 Points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character can project force fields to protect themselves and allies against damage. The field covers a spherical range, and glows slightly. The field starts with 10 force points, recovering 5 each round, or 10 if the character leaves the field down. Any damage dealt to a character within the force field is first dealt to the field's force points. The field defaultly covers the caster and all squares within one tile of him. The field prevents moving as if it were a wall with its current force point count in hardness. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (-3 points) The field is two-way - attacks going out are blocked too. | ||
| + | * (-3 points) The field only protects the caster. | ||
| + | * (-3 points) The field is a two-dimensional wall, ten feet wide and tall. It only prevents movement or attacks going across it. (Mutually exclusive with 'only protects the caster') | ||
| + | * (-3 points) Activating the field drains casting energy - the field is activated as if spontaneously casting a spell, only getting 5 force points per spell level, and ''not'' regenerating. | ||
| + | * (-2 points) The character cannot move while the field is up. | ||
| + | * (3 points, repeatable) Add 5 force points to the field. | ||
| + | * (3 points, repeatable) The field can go out one tile further, or if it is a wall, add 10' to both dimensions. | ||
| + | * (3 points) The field doesn't allow air (or gas attacks and the like) through. | ||
| + | * (3 points) The field has the Ghost Touch property - incorporeal creatures cannot cross it. | ||
| + | * (3 points) The field prevents teleportation through it. | ||
| + | * (5 points) The field counter-attacks - when struck, the attacking individual takes 1d4 magic damage for every 10 force points in the field's ''maximum'' force points. Specify which type of damage during the creation of the field. | ||
| + | * (4 points) The field regenerates 10 HP if the caster focuses (a partial action). | ||

| + | === Healing === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 8 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character has an exceptional talent for healing others. If they have a spellcasting class and cannot already do so, you gain the ability to spontaneously cast ''Cure'' spells, as a Cleric would. If you don't (or already could), you can make a Heal check (DC 10) as a standard action, restoring 1 point of HP for every 3 above the DC on roll you made. You also do this as a side effect of other Heal checks (with their respective DCs as the base, instead of 10). | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (4 points) You restore 1 HP for every 2 above the DC, instead of 3. | ||
| + | * (4 points) You can use Heal checks ''as well as'' spontaneously cast ''Cure'' spells. | ||

| + | === Honed Sight === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 4 points | ||

| + | |||
| + | === Immunity === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 20 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character is completely immune to a specific type of damage (such as fire or cold). | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (GM's Fiat) The element is more precise, or more primal. (Immunity to weaponry could run over 60 points, for example.) | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Improved Critical === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 8 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character has exceptional luck and talent for making perfect hits on opponents - double all critical threat ranges (i.e. 19-20 becomes 17-20, a normal becomes 19-20). | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (-4 points) This only applies when using one weapon - as the Improved Critical feat. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Insubstantiality === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 10 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': Your density is lower than should be possible, allowing you to pass right through paper, cloth, wood, water, and flesh. You can suppress this ability at any time. (Don't confuse this with Incorpreality.) | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (-5 points) Only paper and cloth. | ||
| + | * (-5 points per modifier taken, then 5 more) You ''can't'' turn this ability off! | ||
| + | * (10 points) Also rocks and earth. | ||
| + | * (10 points, requires rocks/earth) Also iron and steel. | ||
| + | * (5 points, requires iron/steel) Also lead and gold. | ||

| + | |||
| + | === Invisibility === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 6 points | ||

:''Cost'': 2 points | :''Cost'': 2 points | ||
| - | :''Benefit'': | + | :''Benefit'': Your character is just plain luckier than most, gaining one Luck Charge (which is restored after an Extended Rest). A Luck Charge may be used to turn a critical failure into a non-critical failure, automatically confirm a critical hit on a natural 20, or to reroll an attack roll, skill check, or other d20 roll - but you HAVE to take the second result. (Yes, if you have several Luck Charges, you can use them repeatedly on the same check.) |

| - | * (-2 points) Your luck occasionally turns against you... Massively. Any time you use a Luck Charge (and it works - so if you reroll and STILL fail this doesn't come into effect), the GM rolls a d10. If the value is equal to or less than the number of times you've used a Luck Charge without a problem (counting the one he's rolling for), then the GM can pull a completely ridiculous negative circumstance of his choice against you - the consequence being highly variable, but no saving throw of any kind allowed, whatever it is.

If the value is equal to or less than the number of times you've used a Luck Charge without a problem (counting the one he's rolling for), then the GM can, at his convenience, pull a completely ridiculous negative circumstance of his choice against you - the consequence being highly variable, but no saving throw of any kind allowed, whatever it is. (Examples might include badly-timed pans falling on your head, or getting on the bad side of a swarm of cats.) |
== M == | == M == | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Massive Damage === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 10 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character knows how to make attacks inflict significantly more damage than normal. Your base damage for any attack you have influence over is increased by 2. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (-4 to -8 points, GM's Discretion) This damage only applies to one general class of weapons - i.e. you only do the increased damage while using a sword, or only with a specific group of magic (Evocation or Fire for example). | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | === Mechanical Genius === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 4 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character has an innate knack for working with mechanical devices of all sorts - the kind of person who reads the advanced technology device's manual in a few minutes, then figures out how to fix it in an hour or two. Their Disable Device skill can also be used to repair or even build technological contraptions. | ||
| + | : All mechanically-oriented checks where taking 20 is allowed can be done in half the usual time. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (4 points) Taking 20 can be done in one-fifth the usual time - just as long as Taking 10 would represent. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Mimic === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 20 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The caracter can attempt to mimic other's actions. Upon making an appropriate check (Spellcraft for magic, knowledge checks for creature specials, or the like) at a suitable DC (base 15, going up for more powerful specials), they can use that ability. Attempting the check and using the ability is done in the same action length (which matches the action length of the ability as used normally). | ||
| + | : Naturally, this requires a ''lot'' of DM council as to how precisely this works - which can vary by campaign. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (-5 points) Spells only. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Mind Manipulation === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 12 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character is capable of controlling the minds and/or actions of others by one means or another. By default, they can use it on any being with at least 3 Intelligence. | ||
| + | :Control is initiated as a full-round action. The ''attacker'' must make a Will "save" of DC 10 plus the target's Intelligence modifier. If they succeed, the victim may attempt a Will Save against DC 15 plus the attacker's Wisdom modifier. Failure means control is established. While the precise details can vary, the effects are similar to ''Dominate Person''. (This can represent their thought patterns being forcibly overwritten, their bodies moving against their natural will, or all manner of other effects.) The effects last for one day. | ||
| + | :At any dramatic moment, or when ordered to do something against their nature, the victim can try to break free of the influence - making this save at a +2 bonus if the action is undesirable, or +6 bonus if the action is especially so (say, attacking an ally). | ||
| + | :Victims usually do not remember what happened while controlled. | ||
| + | :Taking concentrated study on a subject for a day or two - particularly if they are captive - can provide a +5 to the user's will check and save DC. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (2 points, repeatable) The character receives a +1 bonus to their attempts to initiate control, and the save DC to resist increases by 1. | ||
| + | * (4 points) The effects last for one week instead of one day. | ||
| + | * (8 points) The effects last for one month instead of one day. | ||
| + | * ("0" points) The character is capable of "burning" single commands into the victim (including things like introducing a long-term phobia) - these commands do not time out. The character must make a separate check for each command. | ||
| + | * (-2 points) The effects last for only one hour. | ||
| + | * (-2 points) The ability works on an broad, setting-common, but not all-encompassing, category of beings ("humanoids" being the most basic). Can't stack with any other target-array limiter. | ||
| + | * (-4 points) The ability works on a wide variety of targets ("Humanoid males", "Beings potentially attracted to the user", or "Underdark humanoids"). Can't stack with any other target-array limiter. | ||
| + | * (-6 points) The ability only works on a moderate array of targets ("Arcane Spellcasters", "Divine Spellcasters", "Worshippers of this-or-that deity"). Can't stack with any other target-array limiter. | ||
| + | * (-8 points) The ability only works on a highly specific array of targets ("Beings wearing cursed rings I developed - and not if they were put on against their will", "A specific family", "Beings who I've placed chips in the brains of"). Can't stack with any other target-array limiter. | ||
| + | * (-6 points) The control only works on one subject at a time. | ||
| + | * (-2 points) Victims remember what they did while under control. | ||
| + | * (-4 points) The effect only charms the victims, making them fall in love with the character. They will be Helpful to the character, but she cannot attempt to order them to do things against their nature - they don't get a Will save to break control, but simply ''will not'' do it. | ||
| + | * (-6 points) The effect only charms the victims into thinking of the character as a friend. See ''Charm Person''. | ||

| + | === Natural Weapons === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 2 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character has a natural weapon. Select one from the standard list. | ||
| + | : All mechanically-oriented checks where taking 20 is allowed can be done in half the usual time. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (2 points, Bite attack) The character can 'hold onto' the bite after landing it, continuing to inflict damage in subsequent rounds. These are automatically successful. The opponent can break the hold as if it were a Grapple, and the user can't defend as well while doing so (-4 to AC). | ||
| + | * (2 points, Gore attack) The character's charges when using the Horn to attack are extra-effective, dealing an additional 1d6 damage. | ||
| + | * (1 point, Tentacle attack) The character gets a +2 bonus to all Grapple-related checks due to the flexibility of the limb. | ||
== O == | == O == | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Organizatonal Ties === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': Variable. | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character has connections to an organization of power within the campaign. An organization that wields moderate power is worth one point, significant power two points, great power three points, and massive power four points. They can expect to be called on for favors, but in turn can call on favors of their own with that organization. | ||
| + | : If you're at a heroing school, the student council would count as significant or even great power. If you're centered around one city, that city's Mafia and Nobility would ''both'' be of Great power. | ||
| + | :''Modifiers'': | ||
| + | * (As base cost, repeatable) The character wields greater power in the organizaton. By level (number of times this modifier is taken): | ||
| + | ** Respected position such as a landed knight or corporate junior executive. They have some status and wealth. | ||
| + | ** Middle rank such as a feudal lord, corporate vice president, or criminal captain who runs a neighborhood. (Or a junior congressman.) | ||
| + | ** Senior rank such as a US Senator, senior vice-president in a coporation, or feudal baron. | ||
| + | ** Controlling rank - US State Governor, corporate president, or mafia leader. | ||
| + | ** Controlling rank across many organizations - "boss of bosses" of many crime families, or ruler of a small nation. | ||
| + | ** Add one if the organization's influence is international at the level you're at. Add two if it's flat-out campaign-world-wide. | ||

| + | === Piloted Robot === | ||
| + | |||
| + | :''Cost'': 16 points | ||
| + | :''Benefit'': The character owns and knows how to use a piloted robot, powered armor, or advanced vehicle. The exact details will ''necessarily'' involve ludicrous amounts of GM involvement - to the point where no modifiers are provided. | ||
| + | : If the DM wants mechanics, for now, they are advised to get the ''d20 Mecha'' SRD, and start with a 400-point robot, at least for now. | ||
