Class features

  • I Am The Weapon

    While you don’t have any equipped weapons:
    • You gain a +1 bonus to Evasion (don't forget to add it to your sheet!).
    • Your unarmed strikes are considered a Melee weapon, use the trait of your choice, and deal d8+d6 phy damage using your Proficiency.

  • Combo Strike

    After making a damage roll with a Melee weapon but before dealing that damage to the target, mark a Stress to start a combo strike. When you do, roll your Combo Die and note its value. Then, roll your Combo Die again. If the value of the second roll is equal to or greater than your fi rst roll, continue rolling until the latest Combo Die’s roll is less than the roll that preceeded it. Total all rolled values and add that amount to your weapon’s damage. These values cannot be adjusted by features that aff ect damage dice.
    Your Combo Die starts as a d4. When you level up, once per tier you may use one of your advancement options to increase your Combo Die instead.

Class items

  • Handwraps from a mentor,
  • A book about your secret hobby
