-^{{ra>two-hearts?48|Social}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**A Pirate's Worth:** When meeting one or more creatures for the first time, you may specify that they have heard of you before and exactly what they have heard. For example, you might use this ability to specify that Lord Toastwanker has heard that you're good at getting jobs done discreetly, or alternately that Lord Toastwanker's wife has heard that you're good at making love discreetly. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Mojo:** For every thing you specify that somebody has heard about you before, you must spend 1 Mojo. |
+^{{ra>two-hearts?48|Social}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Fancy Seeing You Here:** You can declare that anybody you've previously befriended is present in a scene or situation so long as it's even remotely possible/plausible that they might be there. You can then ask them for favors or hire them as followers as normal. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**For Example:** You're out in the wilderness and a blizzard is coming, so you use this ability to declare that your friend Luanna the Trapper is here. Turn a corner and there she is sitting in her camp, which she of course shares with you until the blizzard's over. You're friends, after all. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Different Circles:** You can only declare meetups with friends in places where those friends might realistically be. If you want to declare a meetup at the Duchess' ball, then you can't do so with Luanna the Trapper since that's really not her scene (but you totally could with your other friend, the gentleman pirate Deadlights Jack Madrigal). \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Meetup Check:** When you declare a meetup, roll a trigger die. If you're trying to meetup with a friend, you succeed on a 9+; when trying to meetup with a bond, success comes on a 5+ instead. If you don't roll high enough to succeed, then the meetup fails and you cannot retry with that friend for the rest of the current session. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Once Per:** You cannot meet up or attempt to meet up with any given friend more than once per session. |

+|{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Make It Happen:** You can make a meetup happen even if you don't get a high enough result on the trigger die check. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Mojo:** Every time you make a meetup happen when it normally would fail, you must spend 1 Mojo. |
-^{{ra>two-hearts?48|Social}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**VIP:** You can get into any exclusive establishment, event, or social gathering in the game world simply by showing up and asking to be let in. Allies that lack this ability might or might not be allowed in with you depending on circumstances. This ability does not guarantee you entrance into classified areas or private residences (unless there's a party or something going on in there). Bad behavior can still get you un-invited and possibly physically thrown out. |

-^{{ra>two-hearts?48|Social}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Sworn Foe:** You know how to leave a lasting impression, even if it's not a fond one. After having a negative experience with any creature, you can roll to establish a relationship with them as a rival. This has the same odds (5+) as establishing a friendship with a creature after a positive experience, only it sometimes can be much easier to have a negative experience than a positive one. Rivals won't aid you the same way friends will, but will always treat you with respect and will hate the idea of anyone except them getting to defeat you. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Nemesis:** You can increase a Rival relationship to a Nemesis one with a further negative interaction and die roll of 9+. A nemesis hates you so much that they also kind of love you. |
+^{{ra>two-hearts?48|Social}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**A Pirate's Worth:** When meeting one or more creatures for the first time, you may specify that they have heard of you before and exactly what they have heard.
