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.

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 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 Afflicted, having Magic Powers, Mutations, even Dragon Magic, Affinities etc. The only exception to this is Unionist and Fornoss God Magic (Eili Only) from the Faith Point Buy Categories.
Puretek references conditions that other Abilities usually do not make note of, such as whether or not a Character is Occult, Attuned, or Mundane. Consult the Abilities Page to see who is considered what.
