for classes which you've currently unlocked
Locked subclasses/variants includes the Hime and Archer.
at creation
roll a d6, d8,
d10 and d12 and see A. B. C. and D. below
A. the d6
determines your Glory. Write down this number. Whenever you
fail a Guts save (see below), add this to your current Endurance. If
it's above your current max, it's added as temporary Endurance. If
you are unconscious due to lack of Endurance and this increases your
total Endurance past 0, then you can get up.
B. one roll
is your starting Endurance (pick from the three rolls and discard
that die; you can also discard the highest roll and take a “six”
as your starting Endurance)
C. one roll
determines your Guts(or just pick and discard the lowest
die roll)
You've
been scarred somewhere. This roll determines where/what the scar
looks like. 1/session, you can re-roll a failed Save v Death or
Poisons (choose which).
D.
one roll determines Might Feat (or just pick and
discard the highest die roll)
Scars (Guts) | |||
1 | Poorly healed broken bone gives you an ugly, lumpy forearm or leg | 7 | Lips all scarred and raggedy |
2 | Missing d6 teeth in obvious places | 8 | Nose broken a few times |
3 | Half-blind in one eye, missing corresponding eyebrow | 9 | Ritual scarification on neck |
4 | Cheshire Grin | 10 | Missing middle finger |

6 | Missing ear | 12 | Cool scar down side of face, over eye (gap in eyebrow) |
Mighty Feats (all 1/session unless otherwise noted) | |||
1 |
Rise
Again. the
round after you've been killed, and so long as your body is in OK
shape, you crawl back from oblivion with 1 Endurance and 1 Wound.
|
7 |
Leap.
1/ combat, leap up to your
thrown weapon range as your move action. This will likely surprise
your enemies.
|
2 |
Revenge.
when a creature damages you,
you get a free attack against a nearby enemy or target immediately
following the attack (interrupts everything else)
|
8 |
Lean
In. You can throw your
shoulder into it and bash down and otherwise locked or stuck door,
can push something extremely heavy (moving as if encumbered) or
can pry open a locked chest (likely sets off any traps) without
making a check or save.
|
3 |
Rampage.
After killing something, get
a free strike against another nearby enemy or target immediately
following your killing blow at -2 attacks. (Can be done more than
once, the penalty is cumulative on successive rampage strikes).
|
9 |
Mighty
Throw. 1/ combat you can
throw something enormous (something you couldn't necessarily lift
otherwise) at a target, dealing an extra die of damage (at least -
if it's huge and the target is tiny, may kill it outright)
|
4 |
Furious
Choke. On an attack, you can try and single-mindedly choke
something with a neck (neck must be small enough you can actually
choke). Doesn't impair your defense or saves. Forces the victim to
make saves each round or the victim passes out. A really bad roll
on the save means they've choked to death or you snapped their
spine or ruined their windpipe and they're dead.
|
10 |
Flesh
Wound. you can ignore the
mechanical effect of a Wound. You've still suffered the physical
damage and will have scars but you don't die automatically if you
take a second one, etc.
|
5 |
Double
Fisted. Attack
with two weapons at once (can use fist, shield). Roll both
attacks. If either succeeds, roll an extra TD for damage. If
either is a critical success, target is killed outright. If either
is a critical failure, it counts as two critical failures.
|
11 |
Weapon
Nut. After a Turn of practice
you can make a check to figure out how to use any weird, strange
weapon without penalty. Can also be used to make kludge repairs to
weapons in lieu of doing so in camp or to jury rig some weird new
weapon (sword on the end of a whip).
|
6 |
Sword
Swallower. You can keep an
extra weapon, rapier, whip or something similar shaped, in your
gut. Avoid strong magnets and try to sit down gently. (takes d3
rounds do draw and sheathe, but not session limit)
|
12 | Armor Nut. After a Turn of inspection/trying on armor, you can make a check to figure out how to use any weird, strange armor without penalty. Can also be used to make kludge repairs to armor in lieu of doing so in camp or to jury rig some weird new armor or armor-like device (shield from giant turtle shell). Or pick 12. |

On a re-roll choose alternate ability and then, on subsequent re-rolls increase the bonus/penalty by one to a max of +3/-2. Afterward, re-roll. |
91-93 | Henchmen. Next time you're in town you get a free NPC tag-along. d12 determines nature of NPC: 1-3 urchin linkboy with a lantern and dagger, 4-5 squire of dubious heritage with sham livery, d4 large coin, adventuring gear and short sword, 6-7 Street Thug with club and 4 throwing knives and underworld connections, 8-9 psychopath with too many daggers and weird trinkets, 10 mutant with (pick: acid spit, third eye [all around vision for 60'] or tentacle arms [can bear hug as a bear]), 11 hime (she thinks you're her knight/manservant), 12 level 1 Rogue (treat as a regular Henchman) with outstanding obligations (Han Solo and all that). Like other Henchmen, takes half a share of XP but only gains a level at half rate. |
94 | Weaponmaster. Choose a weapon keyword. When using a weapon with that keyword, roll a d4 and apply that as a bonus to either attacks or damage (choose before either roll). On a re-roll, increase the die by one size, up to d20. Can choose for multiple keywords on a re-roll, but take only the highest bonus die. |
95 | Bulk Up. If your TD is a d8, increase your size to Large, if it's at least a d10, increase it to Huge (max Huge/d10). If it's too low, re-roll on this table. After the max, re-roll. |

d6+1). After, re-roll. |
98 | In Good Shape. 1/encounter, gain a free movement action. |
99 | Shake it Off. Cumulative +2 Save v Mind-Controlling or movement impairing effects, cumulative, up to +8, after which, re-roll. |

any roll 81+ for +1 Attacks or Saves or TD Endurance *FIGHTERS ONLY: You can swap out both rolls and, as long as one is 81+, earn all three bonuses. |
