Perks:
Perfect Holdout
If your Conceal rating is 8 or more, you can hide a small object (e.g., knife, detonator, phone, lockpicks, .22 caliber pistol) on your person or in your clothing that cannot be found without an X-ray or strip search
Cracker's’ Crypto
If your Digital Intrusion rating is 8 or more, you get 1 free rating point in the Investigative ability Cryptography. You can also encrypt your team’s electronic communications against all but government-level (NSA, GCHQ, MID, DGSE, GRU, Unit 8200, etc.) cracking.
Open Sesame
If your Infiltration rating is 8 or more, you can automatically pick or bypass any normal, commercial door lock or alarm (on buildings or vehicles) without a test. (Otherwise, the Difficulty for such a lock is 2.) Many locks require specialized tools, possession of which without a locksmith’s license is a criminal offense in most jurisdictions. Complex or tricky locks may still require tests to open them speedily, to avoid noise or damage, or to relock afterward. Safes, handcuffs, security doors, and so forth always require tests of Infiltration.
Swiss Army Prep
If your Mechanics rating is 8 or more, you can spend Mechanics pool points for Preparedness tests, as long as you provide a jaunty, Burn Notice-style explanation of how you repurposed this gadget or component. If your agent is present, you can even spend Mechanics pool points for another agent’s Preparedness tests: each 2 points you spend counting as 1 point for their Preparedness test.
In the Nick of Time
If you have a Preparedness rating of 8 or more, you can have also retroactively prepared specific timely actions.
You must have had opportunity and the means to set up the action — which can include the help of fellow agents who “suddenly realize what you asked” when the stop lights all turn red.
The Wire
8 or more points in Surveillance grants you 1 free point of the Investigative ability Electronic Surveillance.
Hard to Hit
If your Athletics rating is 8 or more, your Hit Threshold, the Difficulty Number your opponents use when attempting to hit you in combat, is 4. Otherwise, your Hit Threshold is 3.
