Vocations

Horse Trainer [ ]

The Horse Trainer Vocation allows the following special Exploits:

Exploit: You can assess the health and market value of horses at a glance and get more detailed information with a cursory examination.
Exploit: You may add Finesse, Smarts, and Psyche to your dice pool on an action or reaction related to making a deal or bargain to buy or sell a horse; if you do remove the highest rolling die from the result or step down the effect die.
Exploit: You can calm a wild or bucking horse sufficiently for them to settle and take your direction.
Signature Exploit: You may step up and double Finesse for purposes of handling a horse.

Warrior [ ]

The Warrior Vocation allows the following special Exploits:

Exploit: When making a Melee or Unarmed attack you may activate an opportunity to shut down one of the opponent's Ability traits that has an applicable Gear Limit.
Exploit: You may avoid having an opponent disarm you by activating your Gear Limit.
Exploit: You may avoid taking Body Stress or Body Trauma from a single attack.
Signature Exploit: You may step up and double Violence when fighting from the back of a horse.

Standard Exploits

All Vocations have the following standard exploits available to them.

Exploit: Augment Dice Pool Result: for a dice pool result that inludes your Vocation trait die, you may either keep an extra die for your total or step up the effect die.
Exploit: Create a Asset: a Asset is a temporary d6 trait that represents a professional contact, a piece of equipment, or some kind of useful knowledge related to your Vocation. The Asset lasts until it is removed by someone or because it becomes no longer relevant to the narrative. Write down [Name of the Asset]: d6; you may add it as an additional die whenever the Asset is relevant to an action or reaction. How long it may take to create a particular Asset, and whether it can be done as part of an Action Scene or must be done in a Transition Scene is left to common sense and GM's discretion.
Exploit: Affect Complications: if there is a Complication that your Vocation pertains to, you can step it down or remove it from play by describing how your expertise allows you to overcome the Complication. If the Complication is a d6 eliminate it, if it is d8 or higher step it down. Alternately, if you can justify how your Vocation applies, you may create a d6 Complication and put it into play or step up an existing Complication.

A sturdy frame and solid build makes Fyrclian’s five foot ten inch figure appear more compact than it is. Her hair is short, only a few fingerspans long, and bristled to russet-brown spikes with wax. It’s an attractive color, like firelight on the coarse brown of a horse’s hide, but marred by tufts of white hair, the telltale of a scalp scar suffered as a child. Her eyes are a speckled hazel, and she has a sharp heart shaped face with a strong jawline inclined towards jutting. Broad shoulders balance well with broad hips, in turn supporting a slight bow-leggedness in her leather-clad limbs from years spent in the saddle. Her arms show solid muscles built up over a lifetime of hard work, while her calloused hands are long fingered and suggest dexterity. She carries and is skilled with a slightly curved horseman's sabre, but her favorite weapon is a whip. Fyrclian wears no armor but has fine knee-high equestrian boots that are quite thick and protect her legs from glancing blows when she is on horseback. She wears her tartan boldly as both a mantle and a half-kilt. She proudly bears a very fine arm ring awarded to her by the Hengsting Clan Laird to mark his promise to hold open a spot on his Huscarl for Fyrclian until her return.
