Roguery Point Buy: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 08:22, 14 February 2023

Roguery Point Buy is part of the Proficiency System. Its Packs allow a Character to get better at Rogue or Criminal activities. While in theory it is all Mundane Techniques, players can add Magical aesthetics if they like.

Disguise Skill Pack

The Disguise Skill Pack allows the user to disguise themselves. It can obscure their sex, race, appearance, face, voice and anything that would lead to identification, but only by wearing a mask/cloak/robes. It does not function as shapeshifting. It is impossible to identify a person who is actively using a Disguise from the Disguise Skill Pack. However, if the user is Knocked Out or Restrained, a disguise can be removed and their identity revealed. Note that all these changes do not actually occur on the body and are purely cosmetic. Disguises should always involve some form of face mask/helmet, but can be multiple variations of different disguise. This cannot disguise visual tells from Afflictions, or disguise the fact that the user is a member of some Affliction if it is obvious. This cannot be applied to Abilities or Mechanics like Engineering Golems. This Special cannot be combined with, or used at the same time as, any other Disguise Ability or Special.

Parkour Pack

The Parkour Pack allows the user to deploy Parkour or urban free-running in Regalia that other Characters normally would not be able to do. The Character is able to walk on the roofs of Regalian houses (which are normally too steep to allow a person to walk on them without this Pack), and stand on ledges or scaffolding. The user may move around Regalia with Jump 2 and reach any part they could feasibly reach without the use of Enderpearls and without using leaf blocks to stand on. All other players without similar mechanics cannot use Jump 2 in roleplay. If the user is counted as 'armoured' and wearing heavy or metal armour, this pack's benefits are disabled.

Outlaw Pack

The Outlaw pack is for the underhanded and dextrous, choosing to fight with quick strikes instead of trained slices.

Ability Name	Ability Type	Ability Range	Ability Description	Modifiers
Rogue’s Grace	Mundane Technique	Self	Grants the user Rogue’s Grace	N/A

Venom Pack

The Venom pack allows a character to understand effective combat poisons and quickly use them to hinder their opponent.

Ability Name	Ability Type	Ability Range	Ability Description	Modifiers
Weakening Poison	Mundane Technique	Self	Grants the user Weakening Poison	N/A

Reaction Pack

The Reaction pack is for the hawk eyed citizens of the city, able to see every detail and react to even the fastest possible threat.

Ability Name	Ability Type	Ability Range	Ability Description	Modifiers
Close Save	Mundane Technique	Melee Range	Grants the user Close Save	N/A

Balance Pack

The Balance pack is for those who traverse dangerous terrain and keep footing, no matter how harsh the conditions may be.

Ability Name	Ability Type	Ability Range	Ability Description	Modifiers
Edgewalker	Mundane Technique	Self	Grants the user Edgewalker	N/A

Trickery Pack

The Trickery pack teaches a character that honor and fairness do not exist in a fight, doing whatever it takes to win.

Ability Name	Ability Type	Ability Range	Ability Description	Modifiers
Dirty Fighter	Mundane Technique	Melee Range	Grants the user Dirty Fighter	N/A

Escapist Pack

The Escapist pack is for the slippery scoundrels who need to escape a bind - literally. Tying these individuals down is quite challenging.

Ability Name	Ability Type	Ability Range	Ability Description	Modifiers
Escape Artist	Mundane Technique	Self	The user is able to, whilst restrained, slip out of ropes, chains, handcuffs and other mundane restraints used to hold a player down. Additionally, they are also able to escape from any mundane holding cell or prison by picking the lock to the door in. This is never noticed by the captors until the user begins to move, attack or do any other action. Remember, resisting arrest or breaking out of Prison is highly illegal in Regalia, and can lead to worse punishment! This can be used twice per server restart.	N/A
