<strong>Fate and Persona Points</strong><br/><br/>Everyone starts with 1 Persona point, and 1 Fate point. If you don't suck at rping your character, you'll generally receive at least one of each after each turn cycle (a GM turn and a Player turn), so don't be afraid to use them.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Fate Points</span><br/>Fate points represent luck and fortune smiling down on your character.<br/><br/>Fate points are used<em>after</em>you roll dice. For each six you roll, you count that as a success and reroll it, adding any new successes to your total. You may keep rerolling sixes and adding successes to your total until you roll no more sixes.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">Persona Points</span><br/>Persona points represent a special reserve of inner strength that your character has built up over the course of his trials in the Guard.<br/><br/>Persona points are used<em>before</em>you roll dice, and can be used in one of two ways:<ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc">Bonus Dice: each point spent gives you a +1D to your roll; up to 3 persona points may be spent in this way per roll.</li><li type="disc">Tapping Nature: a persona point may be spent to <em>add</em> your character's Nature ability to your roll. If the test is within Mouse Nature's abilities, there is no additional cost. If the test is outside the Mouse Nature abilities, and the test is passed, Nature is <em>taxed</em> by 1; if the test is failed, Nature is <em>taxed</em> by the margin of failure.</li></ul>Taxed Nature can be recovered/removed a number of ways, as discussed in the Nature Ability section (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=198301.msg9679449#msg9679449) of this thread.<br/><br/><strong>We are now finished with Character Generation!</strong><br/><br/>Please copy and paste all your gear, friends, enemies, and family information, belief and instinct, etc. over to your character sheet. You may also want to copy the descriptions of your Traits onto your Character Sheets to inspire you to use them.<br/><br/>I'll be setting up two more threads for us to play in: one for the narrative story, and another for table talk. I will PM those links to you, along with a link to the two other threads. I will try to start the narrative this weekend, and we can get going. If you have any questions about anything, now's the time to ask!
