Character Point Rate

Assassins pare silent killers. Perceive and React is the way to go for them.

The Assassins's character point rate is:
  • Mental x 0.01; with an additional +0.2 for every level obtained in Stealth (total of +0.8 bonus possible).
  • An assassin who gets all 4 levels of Poison Amplification gets to roll a 1d% increased by Mental as a percentage for extra character points.
  • An assassin who gets all 4 levels of Attack & Retreat gets to roll  2d% increased by Mental as a percentage for extra character points.
  • An assassin who gets at least 1 level in every assassin skill gets their End of Session Bonus as extra character points.
  • An assassin's End of Session Bonus rate is your character point rate increased by 1/2 Perceive. So if your character point rate is 1.5 and your Perceive is 60, you would take 1.5 x 30 to get 45 extra character points at the end of the session. The GM can of course reward extra character points based on role playing. 

Skills

An assassin is a trained killer. For an assassin, any skill listed below has its character point cost cut in half as well as the skills from the primary profession.
