Character Creation

Drawing up a new character:

• Name and Concept
• Starting substats for everything but Psi is 3. Inworlders and Hegemonics start with Psi/Pre and Psi/For of 3, and Psi/Str of 0; Outworlders start with Psi/Str and Psi/For of 3, and Psi/Pre of 0. If you think you're playing a non-human, ask us about what you start with.
• Spend 6 "Creation Points". These can a) raise a whole stat by one, b) raise a substat by three, or c) buy a shtick (major or minor, regardless of EP cost below).
• Spend 100 skill points on skills, including psi talents for any psi shticks you want to use. (5-point useful skills cost 5 points per level, etc.)

For Later:

Spending EPs and Skill Points:

You can buy a substat up with EPs, by spending N eps, when you're buying that substat to N. (You buy substats up one at a time; you don't buy stats as a whole). The exception to this is your low Psi stat, which costs 2*N.

You can buy a shtick with EPs too.
