Local Knowledge: [Choice]

Gift Details

Types

Effect Description

Bonus d12 with a certain place
You know a certain place — a borough of a large city, your home town, the sewer complex underneath the city, etc. — like it was the back of your hand. You can claim an extra d12 on rolls to know where things are, to gossip with the natives of your local knowledge, and to elude pursuit. At the Game Host’s discretion, you can claim a bonus d12 on other rolls related to your local knowledge, as well.
Manifold
You can take this Gift multiple times. Each time, you must choose a different landscape for your Local Knowledge.
Notes
This is an excellent Gift for local guides, city officials, and small-time gangs of crooks. The “home turf advantage” provided by this Gift will give them an edge against Player-Characters, who usually have better dice in their general abilities but just “don’t know the area like these folk do.”
Every Player-Character begins the game with one Local Knowledge Gift. This Gift is often immediately re- trained for more experience. See the Character Development chapter for more details.
