− | + | === Attribute Improvement === | |
− | + | At character creation, you can buy additional attribute points, above what your character type allows, at a 5:1 basis. It costs 5 character creation points to improve an attribute 1 point. These points can be taken from your skills, qualities, or gained by taking Drawbacks. | |
− | |||
− | '' | + | After character creation, the rules on pg 118 apply. However, you ''can'' improve an attribute by more than one point. But there will need to be a significant amount of in-game time between raising a given attribute by another point. |
− | + | Example: Marcus was a slovenly couch potato who worked at a desk before The Rise. He had a Strength of 1. After a few weeks of having to eat only what he could scavenge, frequently having to run for his life, and having to lug around a pack and doing a lot of other physical labor, he lost most of his spare tire, and gained a point of strength. Amazingly, the former couch potato managed to survive to see year 2 (average). By then, hard work and fighting were a normal thing. He was able to raise his Strength to a 3 (above average). | |

− | -1 pt only. Yeah, I don't see being a Minority causing much trouble for a character, so I'm only allowing it as a 1 point disadvantage. Taking it as a disadvantage means that you're alright with me occasionally screwing with your character because of their race/sex/orientation/religion/nationality/whatever. If you play something other than a straight white man, that's great | + | -1 pt only.

Ain't no one cares no more if were cheatin on yer wife, or that you made your fortune with inside trading. But if we catch you cheatin or robbing us, we'll string you up by the neck, 'less you really piss us off, and then we might leave you tied to a tree for the biters. | You probably won't be able to take this one.

Best I'd probably allow it for is 1 pt. Civilization's gone 'way. Probably about everyone you ever knew is dead.

You can hear higher pitches of sound than normal humans. Sometimes you can hear electronics or small electric motors going bad due to noises or whines they make that are above the hearing range of other people. You can also hear dog whistles and other, occasionally irritating, noises. The ZM will occasionally give you a bonus to some hearing checks, allow you hearing checks that characters without this advantage don’t get, or just let you hear a high pitched whine that others can’t perceive. | You can hear higher pitches of sound than normal humans.
