Boons and Banes II
 |
Boons & Banes II expands on an optional mechanic designed to add flavor and detail during the character creation process. It provides minor and major benefits which may be chosen (at an XP cost) as well as minor and major drawbacks (which grant extra XP) to use during character creation. The GM is free to set a "Carryover XP Cap” to limit how much can be carried over for skills¸ talents¸ etc.
While the first Boons & Banes title was designed for all settings¸ this follow-up contains boons and banes tailored for the Terrinoth fantasy setting (though many can be easily adapted for other settings).
Boons offer commensurate bonuses for spending 5 or 10 XP.
Banes offer commensurate drawbacks for gaining 5 or 10 XP.
