Roguery Point Buy: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 00:52, 5 June 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 (a form of Mundane Shapeshifting) that allows them to change everything in their appearance (hair, eyes, body shape, height, gender presentation, etc.) except for their Race. This counts as a Disguise, and unlike many other Disguise Abilities, is always immune to being discovered, even if there is an Ability that explicitly sees through Disguises. However, if the user is defeated in Combat and imprisoned, their Disguise is automatically removed and their identity revealed. This can be used to hide Afflictions and Affinities. Disguise Skill Pack does not work on Tech Automata or Theurgy Spirits, and cannot be used on top of another Disguise.

Dagger Expert Pack

This Pack is for the underhanded and dextrous, choosing to fight with quick strikes instead of trained slices.

 ====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 cannot be combined with, or used at the same time as, any other Disguise.
