these are things that are not included in the core commons version because they're homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity that I don't feel comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on. most of Old Gus's and the community's content is removed in order to have a near-CSRD state what remains is the rules clarifications, errata, splicing together some information from secondary sources (like the Starter Set or from game authors on Twitter), and organizational assists things removed includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't need to advocate for a different one stuff that's likely to get folded into my core is arbitrarily numbered 300s instead of 000s

|
|
-This section is based on *Tiers Above Sixth* in the 2015 Cypher System Rulebook [(234)]{.og-ref}. Challenging PCs above
|
|
-sixth tier probably involves [really impossible tasks](#really-impossible-tasks).
|
|
-
|
|
-After reaching sixth-tier, if the GM allows it, you can continue to spend [XP](#choose-xp) to purchase the following
|
|
-character advancements. After purchasing four advancements, instead of advancing to a new tier, you gain one special
|
|
-ability of your choice from your [type](#choose-type) or [focus](#choose-focus). The GM might also assign additional
|
|
-benefits instead of tier advancement, for example, advancing a second [focus](#choose-focus) by one tier and gaining its
|
|
-associated special abilities, or making a choice from a list of [power shifts](#optional-rule-power-shifts) or
|
|
-[posthuman upgrades](#optional-rule-posthuman-upgrades).
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Increase Pools**: You gain 4 new points to add to your [stat](#character-stats) [Pools](#pool). You can allocate
|
|
- the points among your Pools however you wish.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Increase Edge:** You add 1 to your [Might](#might), [Speed](#speed) or [Intellect](#intellect) [Edge](#edge), up
|
|
- to a maximum of 6. If you have features that permanently increase a stat's Edge, the maximum is increased by an
|
|
- equal amount. For example, a PC with the [Roach](#post-apocalyptic-species-roach) descriptor and [Golem
|
|
- Body](#ability-golem-body){.og-ability} ability has a maximum Might Edge and Speed Edge of 7. Likewise, a
|
|
- [weakness](#drawbacks-and-penalties) from a [harmful mutation](#harmful-mutations) or other source lowers a stat's
|
|
- maximum. [Cyphers](#choose-cyphers) like [Speed Boost](#cypher-speed-boost) and special abilities [Beast
|
|
- Form](#ability-beast-form){.og-ability} that provide temporary increases to Edge function normally.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Increase Effort:** Your [Effort](#effort) score increases by 1, up to a maximum of 6.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Increase Skills:** Choose one [skill](#skills) (other than attacks or defense) or a special ability to become
|
|
- trained in. You can also use this advancement to become specialized in a skill or ability you're already trained
|
|
- in, or to cancel out an inability, becoming practiced in the task. You can choose this advancement up to three
|
|
- times, selecting a different skill or special ability each time.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Increase Recovery Rolls:** Add 2 to your [recovery rolls](#recovery-rolls).
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Armor Training:** Reduce your [Speed Effort cost](#equipment-armor-speed-effort-cost-per-level-of-effort-used) for
|
|
- wearing armor by 1.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Gain a Special Ability:** Select one new ability from your [type](#chapter-5-type) or [focus](#chapter-8-focus).
|
|
- If the GM allows, you can use this option to permanently gain a [spellcasting](#optional-rule-spellcasting) or
|
|
- [psionic](#optional-rule-psionics) ability, allowing you to use it by paying its Pool point cost instead of using a
|
|
- [recovery roll](#recovery-rolls) or spending time to cast a spell or manifest a psionic ability.
|
|
-
|
|
-- **Mutate:** If the GM allows this character advancement, you gain a [beneficial mutation](#beneficial-mutations),
|
|
- [powerful mutation](#powerful-mutations), or [distinctive mutations](#distinctive-mutations). The GM might allow you
|
|
- to choose a specific mutation, or require you to roll for a random one.
