I'll go ahead and get my leveling up stuff out of the way quickly. [b]Kasim[/b] Upgrade Sharp trait Add Acrobatic trait Upgrade Subliminal Messages: Kasim now knows how it actually works instead of thinking people just naturally love him (because I decided him being ignorant of this is a pain in the ass), and it also works on NPCs he's had prolonged contact with even if they aren't poor and homeless and such. If that's not enough of a boost to make it a legit upgrade then I guess some kind of general boost to its effectiveness would suffice. GM discretion on that, obviously. [hider=New Subliminal Messages description]Subliminal Messages: Through a lifetime of use, Kasim subconsciously developed a less blatant use of his telepathic abilities. He has refined his telepathic skill to send out subliminal messages to those he feels a level of kinship with, urging them to like him and help him with whatever his goals may be at the time. Anyone who Kasim views as weak, downtrodden, oppressed, or part of the lower dregs of society will find themselves very much inclined to help him in any way they're able; furthermore, this subconscious communication also comes into play with people who Kasim has had prolonged contact with, once he starts to view them as friends and companions and the like. This effect cannot coerce people into doing anything that goes against their morals or beliefs, since it's just an urge to help rather than some kind of mind control.[/hider] New Unique - King Braggart: Kasim has developed his bragging and bravado into something approaching an art form. His bold declarations of skill can get under the skin of even the most stalwart opponents, his abrasive confidence can assure the fearful masses of their safety even as the city burns down around them, and his tales of his own prowess on the field of battle have a way of making women (and some men) fall head over heels in lust with him. Or at least that's how he'd describe his own bragging powers, which makes for something of an infinite recursion loop of braggadocio. Kasim is a swell guy like that. (Mechanically it's just bonuses to social things whenever he brags or talks about how great he is when trying to taunt, coerce, inspire, flirt, etc.) [b]Zin[/b] Upgrade Apprentice - Illusion Add Awakened Meditation Upgrade Diana's Brood Vampire "unique" trait. Since I ripped this from LoR 2.0's trait system I think I'll have to rely on a GM call for how this one gets upgraded. New Unique - Entry Artist: Being an escape artist is all well and good, but getting [i]into[/i] locked and secured places is far more fun and potentially more rewarding. Zin has a knack for getting into such places, be they buildings or safes or small locked containers or anything else that is clearly meant to keep people out. She is quite good at spotting exploitable weaknesses like unlocked windows or rusty hinges or holes in a guard perimeter, and she's also very skilled at lockpicking and even breaking locks open while leaving the rest of the mechanism in working order when push comes to shove. She tries her best to keep quiet and unnoticed when sneaking into places or opening locks, and she's had a lot of practice at that too, but it's never a sure thing. (Mechanically it's bonuses to getting into secured places and lockpicking and such, also minor stealth bonus only when she's doing the aforementioned breaking and/or entering).
