Editing BDH: Chargen (section)

==Roles [[file:d4a.png|32px|d6]][[File:Arrow03.png|24px]]==
Roles make up the third and final Prime Trait set, and '''<u>one (1) Role die is added to every roll</u>'''.

Characters tend to fill multiple roles in the regular course of things, but as might be expected, different characters develop more in certain roles than others. Roles basically replace a specific list of individual skills with categorized skill blocks.

Each character is ranked in seven '''(7)''' roles:
----
:'''CROWD CONTROL AND TACTICAL RESPONSE:''' Dealing with masses of people in stressful situations, riots, or panic, or confronting military or security obstacles. Soldiers and Police often rank high in this role.
:'''DIPLOMACY AND COMMAND:''' Understanding psychology and social triggers and being able to manipulate, organize, and inspire others to action. Ship Captains, CEOs, Companions, Diplomats, etc, all benefit from high ranking in this role.
:'''ENVIRONMENTAL THREATS:''' Facing and overcoming hazardous environmental conditions such as fire, chem spills, hostile atmosphere, treacherous terrain, vacuum and more. Firemen, Asteroid Miners, HazMat Crews, and Survivalists all tend to rank high in this role.
:'''MECHANICS AND ENGINEERING:''' Using, repairing, modifying, and understanding machines, engines, vehicles, generators, and appliances with a comprehension of design and fabrication. Mechanics, Engineers, and General Craftsmen tend to rank high in this role.
:'''NETWORKS AND SYSTEMS:''' Resolving issues connected to or involving information or computer networks and systems. Programmers, Hackers, and System Admins rank high in this role.
:'''PILOTING AND NAVIGATION:''' Operating craft of every sort, both in and out of atmo, including surface craft, aquatic craft, and manual or animal powered vehicles and/or mounted riding. Fighter Pilots, Hoverracers, Commercial Pilots, and Station Navigators are obvious candidates for high ranking in this role, but Grav-Link Drivers, Asteroid Mappers, Exploratory Engineers and countless other professions and backgrounds also benefit.
:'''TRAUMA AND MEDICINE:''' First response medical assistance, triage, and paramedic treatment with an understanding of disease and pharmacological treatments and psychology/psychiatry. Doctors, Medics, and Nurses make up the bulk of high ranked persons in this role.
