Level System

Every time a player levels up, they are able to add PTS to their skill set. These points aid in completing actions and reaching objectives.

Skills: 30 PTS

All players allocate 30 PTS to the following skills before starting. For every 4 PTS added to a skill, the player gets +1 added to related dice rolls. Each level gained gives the player an additional 4 PTS to allocate.

  • Knowledge: Science, problem solving
  • Charisma: Socializing
  • Construction: Setting traps, fortification
  • Physical Combat: Hand-to-hand battles, melee weapons
  • Ballistic Weapons: Ballistic pistols, carbines, rifles, rocket launchers
  • Energy Weapons: Energy pistols, carbines, rifles, plasma mortars
  • Paranormal: Occult, magic, necromancy

Superpowers: 20 PTS

Any superpowers marked with an +/- are exclusive, meaning only one can be chosen. For every 4 PTS allocated to a superpower, the player gets +1 added to related dice rolls. Each level gained gives the player an additional 2 PTS to allocate.

  • Speed: Quickness, reaction time
  • Strength: Lifting heavy objects, overpowering foes
  • Flight: Soaring through the air
  • Regeneration: Restoring health to you and other entities
  • +/- Telekinesis: Moving objects with your mind
  • +/- Shapeshifting: Morphing into other materials or creatures

Added examples of each species to the OP! Thank you for pointing out that applying players had nothing to go off of. I was being a little shortsighted.
