Edges

At some time in your life, you have had a bad run in with insect spirits, be it that they killed your entire family or caused you to lose a limb. You actively hunt them and kill insect spirit spirits on sight with no hesitation, unless it is against overwhelming odds. You have spent most of your life fighting them and it has become almost second nature to you. You receive a -1 modifier to any armed or unarmed tests you take against them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You have been sneaking around corporate facilities and heavily guarded places almost all your life and it has become almost second nature for you to spot alarms and traps. Your character gets a -1 modifier to all Intelligence tests you take to spot traps or sensors.

This edge gives anyone the ability to use one of the four elements up to a certain extent. A description of each power is given below.

Earth: The person can open small potholes and bumps in the earth. They can also make small spikes in roads to pop tires.

Fire: The person can create minor fireballs and a flame aura around themselves, as well as small flames on their fingers and hands. Any damage done by this fire is (Willpower)L.

Air: The person can create small bursts of air that can move small pieces of debris as well as gasses such as smoke and poisons. The target to stay standing if hit by a burst is one half Willpower of the person.

Water: The person can create small whirlpools and waves in lakes, rivers, and oceans.

Note: The person doesn't have to resist any kind of drain for the use of the powers.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The person gifted with acrobatic style is extremely good at running, tumbling, jumping, and all around acrobatics. A character with this edge receives a -1 modifier to all athletic tests.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Mole is able to get by most security systems. The mole gets a -2 modifier to any attempt to get past security devices, such as cameras and locked doors.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For some strange twist of fate, people around you seem to get hurt worse then the actually should. Anyone within 10 meters of this character, be it friend or foe (but not the character), will have the power of any damage inflicted go up one level.

Example: Samurai Bob is standing in front of a ganger that is 5 meters away. Bob shoots the ganger with a Predator II and gets one success. The damage the ganger would usually have to resist would be 9M, but because of Bobs Bloody Mess edge, the damage is 9S.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your character seems to have lady luck on their side. Once per game when the character has a target number over 12, they may use this edge to receive one success. The character may not try to roll and then say they want to use the edge.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In your many travels, you have managed to acquire a creature of the awakened world. Anything from a devil Rat(1pt) to a hellhound (4 pts) may be taken, with the exception of dragons and spirits. Remember that the animal may be yours and is very loyal, but it will not risk its life to save yours, and if injured, it will run away.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

God, or some other deity, smiles upon you. You pray to him every day and in return, he offers his aid. 3 times per game, you may re-roll any failed test. But in return, you must preach the good word, pray, or do something else to prove yourself. Should you fail to keep up your duties, your aid will not return until you have repented for your sins.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Loa smiles upon you, even though you may not be a houngun or a mombo. It grants you +1D6 to use in any test you may have per game. (ex: Perception, Willpower, Initiative, etc.) Also, any voodoun who tries to have you possessed by a work Loa gains a +2 to their target number.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The character can call in backup once each adventure. The value of the edge

depends on the power of the backup. A street gang with poor fighting skills

might be worth 1, while an elite commando team would be worth 6. The

character must come up with a good explanation for why the backup is

willing to help them. Also, the character must keep track of how many

people are in the backup team. If one of them dies, they are gone forever.

This means that the character could potentially loose everyone on the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The character has very high athletic endurance and can run long distances

without getting tired. Double the distance that the character would

normally be able to run before making a test to see if they get tired.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The character has remarkably good vision and can easily see long distances.

The character gets -1 to target numbers for all perception tests involving

sight. In addition, all ranges for shooting are moved back by one. A

character shooting at a target at moderate range, for example, would

calculate the target number as if it were short range.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The genius edge allows a character to learn knowledge based skills at a very fast rate. It costs the skill rating in karma to raise a skill, just as if you were raising an Attribute. GM�s be warned. Use of this edge could create a super character.
