Lineages

• Fairbane: You have an innate resistance to the flow of magic, especially fey magic. Once per Round, you can gain a +1 bonus to any test to resist a magical effect. This is a +2 bonus against primal effects.
• Giftgiver: The rule of reciprocity buoys you along. When you use an action to help an ally, you gain the benefits of the Breather action.
• Smokeworker: Your family have been bringing smoke and fire to the fore for generations. You gain Fire Soak equal to your Resistance (minimum 1) and smokevision; you ignore Insufficient lighting penalties caused by ash and smoke, and decrease Minimal penalties to -3.
• Steelskin: Your skin responds to injury by forming tough, flexible callouses. You gain Festering soak equal to your Resistance (minimum 1), and whenever you gain Bleeding, you treat it as one lower (to a minimum of 0).
• Warrenbred: Your family comes from tight tunnels underground, and you are particularly sensitive to sounds echoing. You gain a +2 bonus to Mobility tests to squeeze through tight spaces, and the sharp-eared trait; you face no penalty to detect Insufficient sounds, and the penalty for Minimal sounds decreases to -3, but the penalty for Abundant sound increases to -2.
