Allocate Capacity Dice
Distribute the six Capacity Dice (d4, d6, d8, d8, d10, d12) among the following categories:
Endure: Physical and mental resilience.
Navigate: Agility, reaction speed, and movement.
Influence: Charisma, persuasion, and social skills.
Glean: Perception, intelligence, and analysis.
Manifest: Magical and technological power.
Attack: Combat effectiveness in both melee and ranged combat.
This allocation will define your character’s strengths and potential areas for growth.
Example: I want my bounty hunter to excel at solving clues, detecting deception, engaging in long-range combat, and surviving a decent hit. Let’s distribute my capacities of (d4, d6, d8, d8, d10, d12) to best realize this fantasy.
Endure: A d8 Endure should allow my bounty hunter to survive a scrap.
Navigate: A d8 Navigate die should help me move quickly and ambush foes.
Influence: A d6 Influence die accurately reflects my difficulty in holding a pleasant conversation while allowing for the occasional intimidation to be successful.
Glean: A d12 Glean die will allow me to notice clues, track my prey, and engage them at long range.
Manifest: A d4 Manifest die should be serviceable for my bounty hunter. I don’t plan on doing a lot of magic, but it will leave me susceptible to some hostile magic.
Attack: A d10 is sufficient to engage all but the most nimble foes from range.
