The PCs total Brownie points will affect their Agency Rolls. PCs must keep track of their Brownie Points. PCs should read this section to gain an understanding how the points are accrued and used.

- Combat Luck is limited to 1 level at start of game. Max levels are two. Combat Luck will have the following modifiers applied to it: Luck Based (-½), Hardened (+¼), Nonpersistent (-¼), Cannot Be Combined with Any Other Armor (-0).
