You each start play with a number of Contacts = 1 + CHA modifier (negative modifiers result in bonus Contacts automatically beginning on the lower end of the Reaction table). You can declare your unused Contacts at any time during play. You will have the opportunity to make additional Contacts in play, and can make a Between Adventures move in some extended downtime situations to generate more open Contacts if your current open Contacts are exhausted. When you activate a Contact, I'll roll against the Reaction and Seeing a Man About a Dog tables (TNU 137-138) to determine their current opinion of you and their ability to render the aid you desire. (With the exception that free Contacts generated by negative CHA will at best have a neutral Reaction). | You each start play with a number of Contacts = 1 + CHA modifier (negative modifiers result in bonus Contacts automatically beginning on the lower end of the Reaction table).

''Imbuements:'' You may select one spell you have mastered, and receive a narrative effect for possessing mastery in it that we negotiate. So, for instance, selecting Open as your Imbuement might mean that your character can always open small, unlocked containers within 10' of them with the motion of a finger. Selecting Perfect Orientation might mean that your character can always orient to true north and the direction 'up'. Characters will have the opportunity to acquire additional Imbuements, both as a result of attaining new specific levels and through narrative devices. | ''Imbuements:'' You may select one spell you have mastered, and receive a narrative effect for possessing mastery in it that we negotiate.
