Character Options

Changing character options

If you pick a skill, ability, class, or any other option that you end up not liking after using it in the game—even your character’s ancestry—you can always freely change that option between game sessions. If you want to change an option during a session, ask your Director. If they say it’s fine to swap that option out for something else, go for it. You shouldn’t be stuck with an option that makes the game less fun for you.

If you’re changing an option out for some reason other than fun, such as changing a kit out because you think the next adventure is going to require you to have better distance with weapon attacks or changing a signature ability granted by your class because you think a different damage type would be more helpful against undead, you must either follow the normal rules for changing that option, or if no such rule exists, get permission from your Director.

Optional Rule: Respite Ability Changes

An optional rule the Director can include in your game is to allow heroes to change a number of their signature and heroic abilities granted by their class as a respite activity. This allows heroes to prepare for upcoming encounters and try new builds, but it does mean that Directors and players are constantly juggling and learning new abilities
