The Puretek Point Buy is part of the bigger Proficiency System. Please read the Proficiency Page first before reading this one. Puretek Point Buy provides Packs for the Character to become proficient in the use of Puretek. Puretek is a special type of weapon made by so-called "Purists" (reactionary fanatics who hate anything to do with Magic or the Occult). Puretek rifles or pistols are not truly firearms with barrels, but rather divinely blessed Purestone (white with golden marbling) decorated with a steel or golden handle and firing trigger.
Ability Aesthetics
Puretek Point Buy operates under "Limited Aesthetics" rules. What this means is, Puretek Point Buy can be freely used with the following guidelines and suggestions: Puretek Rifles, Puretek Pistols, Puretek Sidearms. This list is mostly comprehensive, but we accept suggestions for additions, within reason to the setting. However, this Proficiency is always strictly Mundane and cannot be re-flavored as Magic. This Aesthetic Flavor has no effect on Ability functionality.
Puretek Rules
- Puretek weapons are usually sidearms, as the Abilities provided in this Point Buy Category, expect the Puretek weapon to be a sidearm. Players are free to change the flavor of the Abilities to the main weapon.
- Puretek can also be applied as a main aesthetic for Ranger Point Buy or Deadeye Point Buy, or Paladin Point Buy Attack Emotes, so long as the Character has at least one Pack in Puretek Point Buy, and complies with the rule below.
- Puretek as a weapon does not function in the hands of someone who is Magical and or Occult, meaning Mages, Afflicted, Affinities, or otherwise having any kind of Magical powers past what is available to Heritages by default.
- Puretek references conditions that other Abilities usually do not make note of, such as whether or not a Character is Occult or Mundane. Consult the Abilities Page to see who is considered what.
