You may recover either or both traits when it is appropriate to the narrative; this may require you to activate an opportunity or take an action against the doom pool at the GM's discretion. You may shut down this Ability Set's Armor trait and gain one (1) Plot Point; if you do so you may recover Armor during a Transition Scene if it is appropriate to the narrative.

Advances: 12

Vocations

Monster Hunter [  ]

The Monster Hunter Vocation allows the following special Exploits:

  • Exploit: With access to materials, during a Transition Scene you may acquire specialized ammunition or weapons useful for harming the kind of monster you are currently going after. You gain a Asset such as 'Special Ammo: d8' or 'Blessed Stakes: d8' or 'BFG: d8' (etc); you can give this Asset to someone else.
  • Exploit: You may avoid taking Stress from a single supernatural attack.
  • Exploit: You may step up and double Smarts for a single action when trying to investigate a supernatural crime scene or situation.
  • Signature Exploit: You may step up and double Violence on an attack versus a Vampire.

Scholar [  ]

The Scholar Vocation allows the following special Exploits:

  • Exploit: Recall useful information regarding an academic subject you might reasonably have learned a little something about in the past (GM's discretion applies).
  • Exploit: You may reroll a dice pool that includes your Smarts; the second result must be kept.
  • Exploit: During a Transition Scene you can create a knowledge related d8 Asset if you are able to cram information on that subject.

Alchemist [  ]

The Alchemist Vocation allows the following special Exploits:

  • Exploit: You can identify a chemical, biochemical, or alchemical substance with a whiff or a glance, at least well enough to know if it is safe to touch or consume.
  • Exploit: You may double a trait from an Alchemical Asset when adding it to one of your dice pools; if you do you may include one additional die in your total.
  • Exploit: You may spend a Transition Scene to create a single use Alchemical Asset with a step one higher than your Alchemical Vocation trait, or two single use Alchemical Assets with a step equal to your Alchemical Vocation trait. These Assets are typically a magical potion or bomb, with a wide variety of effects (GM's discretion applies), and they may be given to other characters to use.

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.
