You touch minds, plant suggestions, and weave illusions. You are feared more than any gunfighter — because bullets can be dodged, but how do you dodge a thought?

Starting Choices

  • Prime Attribute: +1 SWAY (fixed, no choice).
  • Skill Allocation: Distribute 6 Skill Points among Career Skills (maximum starting Rank 2).
  • Starting Talents: You start with The Nudge (Rank 1 Cantrip) automatically. Choose one general Mundane Talent (Combat or Non-Combat list — player’s choice).
  • Starting Erosion: 1 (the cost of the gift).
  • Note on starting gear: The Concealed Knife mechanically matches the Bowie Knife stat block (WR 2, Tempo 3) but is carried hidden rather than openly.
