| + | ==Action Points== | ||
| + | Action points are used by characters to avoid wiping out hilariously when their life is on the line. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===Gaining Action Points=== | ||
| + | A character is created with 1 action point. At the end of every session, every player awards an action point to one other player for something impressive that they did during the session (whether roleplaying or in combat). An action point cannot be awarded more than once for a particular action. A character may not have more action points than their level. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===Spending Action Points=== | ||
| + | Once per round (resetting as soon as the initiative count goes back around to the first character), a character may spend action points to: | ||
| + | * 1 action point: Replace the result of a d20 roll you just made with a 10, before you know the result | ||
| + | * 2 action points: Replace the result of a d20 roll you just made with a 20, before you know the result (this is not a natural 20) | ||
| + | * 1 action point: Add +1d6 to the result of a d20 roll another character just made, before they know the result | ||
| + | * 1 action point: Automatically stabilize at -1 HP when reduced to between -1 and -9 HP | ||

| + | ==Barely-feats== | ||
| + | Sometimes, a feat isn't really worth a feat. Most of the time, that feat's not really worth a flaw, either (what counts as a barely-feat is determined by the DM after you ask). You must meet all prerequisites for barely-feats, even if they are other barely-feats. A barely-feat is gained at levels 2, 4, and every 3 levels thereafter (except for E6), and may be purchased for half cost (2500XP instead of 5000) in E6. PHB examples of barely-feats include: | ||
| + | * All +2/+2 skill feats | ||
| + | * Armor Proficiency, Martial Weapon Proficiency, Shield Proficiency | ||

| + | * Endurance | ||
| + | * Eschew Materials | ||
| + | * Far Shot | ||
