Editing SOTDL: Chargen (section)

==Signature Assets==
Signature assets are permanent assets recorded on the character sheet rather than the Complications and Assets table, and as such they don't drop off at the end of a scene or a story arc. 

They might represent a piece of gear or equipment or a meaningful personal contact. For this game, signature assets should not represent innate qualities or skills but only things external to the character.

Signature assets are always rated either [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]] or [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] and may never be raised beyond [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]]

Each player starts the game with two (2) points to spend on signature assets. Each point either buys a new signature asset at [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]] or steps up an existing asset to [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]]

Optionally, players may opt to spend these points on additional knacks (or knack upgrades) instead of assets. The rules that [[file:d4a.png|24px|d4]] Untrained skills may not have knacks and that no knack may be ranked higher than the skill it is associated with (of course) still apply.

'''Some clever Signature Assets''' I've seen in past games include a Boneweaver with the ''Fingerbone of a Warlord'' that he regularly used to get tactical advice, a Harbinger who made one of her ''Summoned Spirit Weapons'' a signature asset for the bonus attack die, and a Sidhekin with a pet ''Crow'' that came to her call so she always had a creature close at hand to merge with..

'''Note:''' It is possible for other characters to use another's signature asset within the fiction, but when they do they do not get to add that asset's die to their pool.

'''Note:''' [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] signature assets may have up to two (2) associated SFX, and [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]] may have one (1). These, however, cannot be purchased during chargen. They are only available through the expenditure of XP during game play.
