Classes (Cybergems)

Characters obtain some of their important powers from classes.

Special Classes

Special classes, for whatever reason, don't belong to any particular tier.

Hero Special Tier Expertise

Bonuses:

♦ If you have been eliminated from your original player's party for any reason, at least an hour has passed, and that player has enough unspent points to accomodate you, they may roll 1d10 to attempt to have you return somehow, alive and undominated, with success on a 7 or higher. Your return happens within one minute. If the roll fails, the player may not try again until progressively more time has passed: one day, one week, one month, and one year.

Special: Each player may have the Hero class on one of their characters for free.

Common Classes

Warrior Common Tier Expertise

Bonuses:

♦ Choose another Fear Response: When you would suffer a fear response, you may pick either that one or your original one.

♦ When you fling a creature, you may fling it 2 extra meters.

Special: This class may be taken multiple times.

Skirmisher

Defender Common Tier Expertise

Bonuses:

♦ If your position would grant cover to someone or something, you may grant total cover instead.

♦ As a move action, you may Defend: One target within reach gets a +1 bonus to Toughness until your next turn or until it stops being adjacent, whichever comes first. While it gets that bonus to Toughness, any damage dealt to it is dealt to you as well.

Medic

Elite Classes

♦ If you and a conscious willing creature are on opposite sides of a target (the smallest angle between you from the target's perspective is 135 degrees or more), both of you get +1 to Accuracy against that target. If the willing creature also has Veteran, this bonus increases to +2. The bonus does not stack.
