Re: Professions are not straightjackets
This aligns nicely with the Variants option that will be in the Players Companion, that allows you to revise Professions to change their focus. For example, there's a Variant of the Aristocrat called the Dilettante, who's basically a rich adrenaline junkie, with the more active Skills swapped up fro...

Re: Making Characters

The kistalmi don't like being down on the flat - they prefer the mountains, where they can find updrafts and launch points. Once we get the Saurids book out, the differences...

Re: Character Advancement Questions
Professional Abilities are gained all at once when you reach Journeyman Ter. Yes, there are Tier abilities at Warden and Master, and they're in scale with the Tiers.

Re: Astral Space
Okay, so I feel like I used to have a handle on this and now I'm not sure: An astral spirit can sense the physical world, but can only affect things with an astral pattern, right? Or is that right? True or false - A spirit can do this from astral space Use Aid Summoner Yes. The summoner has a True ...

Re: 1879 London Kickstarter
No Horrors in 1879. But yeah, sorry, we tried to come up with a way to make it work but ZenCart is noncompliant.

Re: Making Characters
Journeyman Tier Skills can be used for Profession Skills, to build a Profession around, but cannot be chosen for Core, Optional, or Free Skills for starting characters. P64 has an error there, which is corrected in the Character Creation summary on p552. Characters get a couple of Knowledge and Gene...
