-Sequencers know how to fire bolts of energy that strike a target, then seek out other secondary targets nearby. Chain lightning guns/spells are the most archetypal example (and can be conceptually reinforced by combining this class with one or more levels in the Tesla class), but the exact nature of a Sequencer's blasts can be whatever fits your campaign world.

The secondary target suffers the same effect as the primary target, including any effects from the trigger die. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Backstab:** If you attack a target that cannot see you, you deal +2 damage. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Chain Limits:** The secondary target is always whichever creature is closest to the original target (this can be either friend or foe). If multiple targets are equidistant from the original target, determine which one is hit randomly. If there are no other creatures within 5 meters of the original target, the chaining effect does not occur. Chaining effects are blocked by total cover but not partial cover between the primary and secondary targets. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Size Failure:** Smaller creatures are harder to hit with your weapon, and larger ones are harder to meaningfully damage. For every size category different than your own your target is, your attacks have a failure chance of 3. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Concealment Failure:** If your target is in partial concealment (dim light, thin fog, etc) your attack has a failure chance of 3. If your target is in total concealment (total darkness, thick fog, etc) your attack has a failure chance of 6. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Cover Failure:** If there are creatures or solid objects partially obstructing your view of the target, your attack has a failure chance of 6. If creatures or solid objects are totally obstructing your view of the target, you cannot attack them at all. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Water Blocked:** This weapon cannot be used effectively at all while underwater or against targets that are underwater. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Ammunition:** When the trigger die rolled with the attack is 1-3, the attack uses 1 point of Supply or one use of an Ammo Bag item.

-^Sequencer School |The settlement hosts an institution that teaches the secrets of this class for a small fee. Keystones of this class can be purchased here for 1 Supply each. |
-^Shooting Range |Space has been set aside for target practice with Remote weapons. Adventurers can spend a training fee of 1 Supply in the establishment to temporarily increase their Remote combat skill by +1 until the end of the current session. A Shooting Range cannot be used more than once in a given session by any single adventurer. |
-^Squad |The settlement is home to a squad of 10 soldiers focusing on this class's weapon type. A single settlement can have multiple versions of this enterprise. All 10 soldiers are level 5 and have the same abilities/statistics, determined by you. At least two of the soldier's five abilities need to be weapon abilities, and all of the soldier's abilities need to be ones personally known by the retiring adventurer who establishes the squad. Squads fight for the interests of their local settlement. If a squad is wiped out, it can be restored to fighting order by spending 5 Supply. |
