Useful things go here. They make us go.

Nations

Icons

Everyone who doesn't want to use the default icons needs three unique icons; one each for Army, Navy and Agent/Individual. They should be relatively small (ideally 50 pixel diameter) and preferably circular.

Character Rules

You may not activate more than three heroes a turn, though you may activate less (or even none) if you so choose. All heroes need an epithet; the Queen Luceedi, the Elder Wyrm Rhodos, Tenno Showa.

Three levels of hero combat:

Social: Conflict over some third party

Mental: Conflict between two heroes with no intent to physically harm

Physical: Brawl!

Characters

All characters must start as one of five basic class templates, giving them the Cardinal trait and one additional derived trait. Once they level up however, characters are not otherwise restricted in what traits they may choose.

Characters start with 5 stat points and one trait point at level 1. No Stat may start at more than 3, and no trait of more than tier 1 may be chosen.

All characters can choose any trait, based on their pre-requisites.

Characters gain one stat point and an increasing number of trait points per level. When levelling one already purchased trait may be exchanged for trait points.

Stats

This is your dice pool. Any stat can be rolled in most situations, so long as an appropriate story is told.

Combat: All form of personal combat from fists to lightning bolts to battlemechs.
Mysticism: Understanding the mysteries of the universe, a spiritual connection to the whole.
Mental: Cleverness and intellectually rigorous plans and strategems.
Social: Your appearance and charisma stat.
Conviction: Zeal and drive; sheer force of personality.
