For example, if the typical person can hold their breath for thirty seconds, you can hold it for one minute. If the typical person can march for four hours without stopping, you can do so for eight hours. In terms of harmful effects, if a poison paralyzes its victims for one minute, you are paralyzed for thirty seconds. The minimum duration is always one round.

Enabler. + * **Fleet of Foot (1+ Speed points):** You can move a short distance as part of another action. You can move a long distance as your entire action for a turn. If you apply a level of Effort to this ability, you can move a long distance and make an attack as your entire action for a turn, but the attack is hindered. Enabler. + * **Improved Recovery:** Your ten-minute recovery roll takes only one action instead, so that your first two recovery rolls are one action, the third is one hour, and the fourth is ten hours.

This is because you are doomed. The universe is a cold, uncaring place, and your efforts are futile at best. +* **Skills** + * **Trained** in all tasks involving sneaking. + * **Trained** in all tasks involving foraging, hunting, and finding safe places to rest or hide. + * **Inability:** Living on your own for as long as you have makes you slow to trust others and awkward in social situations. Any task involving social interaction is hindered. + * **Trained:** Always on the lookout for danger, you are trained in perception-related tasks. + * **Trained:** You are defense minded, so you are trained in Speed defense tasks. + * **Trained:** You are cynical and expect the worst. Thus, you are resistant to mental shocks.
