The passions capstone is an oddity both for the current game and our past efforts, so keeping our current design philosophy in mind, it was determined it should be hobbled, and the typical hobble is for t...

Re: Passions Capstone / Basic & Foundational abilities question

Not sure how I missed this one. Sorry for the late reply. The spirit of the rule is that. where condition/effect removal is concerned, basic abilities cure other basic abilities. So the passions capstone would work to remove any condition in the common effects section on page 68. As you surmised, it...

Version 1.2 of the Rulebook

As a holdover until we can get the files for rules 1.2 uploaded to the website, I'm going to upload them to the facebook group and to the helpful tov links channel of the discord.

Tier 2

So let's talk about Tier 2. For those of you not familiar with our previous campaign, Tier 2 is a shorthand reference for advanced abilities that require in-game lessons to learn and which are more powerful than those found in the base rulebook. We understand that character progression is an excitin...

CP Awards

There have been some questions about CP and I've got some answers. You'll notice below I refer to a season cap. That cap is 25 CP per season. Here's the breakdown of awards: 30CP- Everyone gets this to start. This does not count against the season cap. 3CP- For submitting an approved history. This d...

Re: Fast Health & Improved Accelerate Recovery

The original concern is valid as raised. We've got two ways to manage that that have been suggested here: 1) Bake it into the rules somewhere either in a skill description or incant. 2) Encourage healers to use their diagnostic skills before treating patients (Understanding that if someone is coming...

Re: Question on Mend

Greg is correct about why the rule was added in the first place: it provides an alternative to sitting in silence for five minutes while treatment occurs.

Re: Courier?

If you want to use a BGS to track down this information, then yes. Talking to people IG is always an option as well.
