Special Gear

CAN'T SWIM: Avions' wings are a hazard in water. They subtract 2 from Athletics (swimming) rolls and each inch moved in water costs them 3″ of Pace. FLIGHT: Avions fly at Pace 12 per round. Use Athletics when maneuvering. FRAIL: Avions have −1 Toughness due to their hollow bones. KEEN SENSES: Avions are more perceptive than most. They begin with a d6 in Notice (instead of d4) and may raise the skill to d12 + 1. REDUCED PACE: Dependence on flight and bulky wings make avions slightly slower when walking. Decrease their walking Pace by 1 and their running die by one step.
