Preferred Weapon

It can be unslung/made ready for use as a reaction Action. It gains an initiative bonus of +1 per +2 proficiency bonus; User may resist any attempt to disarm or drop the weapon with a +4 bonus. 

Group Bond

Group: The group perspective thats so cool about incarna can be leveraged through plot points (DMG) and inspiration (as in bardic) - this would offset some of the dangerous attempts by low level characters and hopefully less death saves. Must have a Bond and Ideal that are all the same and beyond merely “we kick ass together”.

Lackey

Dominant Species

Starts with one use of Inspiration

OATHs...

Oath: Code of Silence

Shared Litany

This allows a character awarded with a Blessing from the deity or power of the litany to use a prayer which can convert the Blessing from a Inspiration into the spell of Bless upon themselves. It takes 3 rounds of prayer. There is also a chance that a Bless spell cast upon them may be shared with a fellow worshiper with Shared Litany; a DC 10 CHA check allows the Bless to affect such a target within 1m.

Good Luck

This allows the character to spend 1 point of Essence once during a game session to be used as Inspiration.

Quick Temper

The victim sees sleights to their honor everywhere, a challenge in people's tone, and in general has a short fuse and is angry and quick to act out on any perceived threat. Often they are fine alone - it is only the presence of others and a feeling of being challenged that cause the violent outbursts. Fights are typically grapple and punches - not deadly; the behavior is not self destructive, usually its just socially destructive. Those with a quick temper suffer -2 skills relying on control of emotions (Persuade, etc.) check - so blinded are they by their own emotions. If forced to "act nice" through an encounter (failing their compulsion check but voluntarily violating it to preserve the peace), they will suffer Anxiety during that time and 3 rounds thereafter.

Shadow Bond (minor)

Full damage resistance to Necrotic damage/resistance to non magical cold damage, +1 on any SAN saves, +1 Deception skill, and -1 HP on any healing effects. Shade Sense: Senses the power of being using necrotic or cold energy for damage, and sources of necrotic or cold energy on a DC 15 Insight check.

Proficient Linguist

The character has studied and practiced the language of choice (applies to a single language) in all manner of social situations. They have an above average command of vocabulary and use it appropriately to their audience. 

This gives them a +1 on all Persuade attempts using the language.

> This takes the place of language skill.

Proficient Writer

The character has studied and practiced the language of choice (applies to a single language) in all manner of literary contexts. They have an above average command of vocabulary, vernacular, and linguistic patterns and use it appropriately in reading and writing. 

This gives them a +1 on all Investigation attempts using the written language or subterfuge in skills (Persuade, Deceit, etc.) when using correspondence as the means.

Wyldling Tied

The character rejects much of the notions of modern, crowded living. They prefer natural places and a balance of resources and dwellers. Movement instead of stasis, and unspoiled natural beauty.
