{{Feats

| Archetype? = No
| Official? = Yes
| Description = 

Something in your past justifies that you have a particular Feat.

You gain one free General Feat or Prowess of your choice, even if you don't meet the prerequisites or if this Feat is forbidden by your Archetype.

You have to justify to the Game Master why this Prowess makes sense considering your background, this should not be abused to Min/Max your character.

For example, if you grew up in the streets before being adopted by a rich [[Aristocrat]], it makes sense for you to have the [[Outlaw Wisdom]] Feat although your Archetype is technically [[Aristocrat]].

Or if your family have a history of being cursed it could make sense to have the [[Handicap (lost faith)]] Feat.

Note that this feat doesn't have to be taken at character creation and with you at your Game Master's discretion it is acceptable to flesh out your background later in the game.

Advices on creating Feats :

A Feat is a massive advantage granted to the finest of the finest after a life of training. Most normal people don't have Feats at all.
A person with the Agile Feat, is qualified to be in the Olympics (not win, but at least participate)
A person with the Rich Feat is the richest man in his city.
Etc..

While creating a Feat, make sure with your Game Master that there is no other Feat that would be Synonym (e.g. would have the same final game effect). If yes, add it as a Synonym rather than create a new Feat.

For example, Courage is a synonym of Fanatism, not because they are the same concept, but because they have a similar in game effect.

And finally, make sure that the Feat is useful but not too useful, this depends on the scenarios and campaign you're playing.

Advices on creating Archetypes :

A typical archetype is either :
One Feat imposed and two to be chosen in a list
or
A disadvantage that grants two feats freely chosen.

The goal of an Archetype is to guide a new player on how to create a very cool and coherent character.


Advices on creating Prowesses :

A Prowess can only be used once per scenario and allows the character to do a special action.

A Prowess is a type of non-visual spell. It is possible only if there is an explanation to the limit of the scientifically plausible and it is up to the player to justify it with the game master before using his prowess.

For example, it is humanly impossible to heal someone who has been decapitated, but it is not impossible to treat someone who's throat have been slit. It is very difficult, very rare, but scientifically plausible.

Unlike normal Feats, a character can acquire the same Prowess several times.
