outsider
This is an old revision of the document!
- travel guide/outsider's intuition: gain information about someone/something. sometimes really useful, very occasionally totally false, never anything obvious to anybody else. could be lore or rumor or something maybe that you make up yourself?
- resource alternates, like can change supplies to provisions or something
- recover from first condition you take per exploration turn on a 5+ instead of 9+, other conditions unaffected (disbelieve)

Outsider
| Social | plus-circleStrange Looks: Everyone who sees you knows you're different from them, maybe different from everybody they've ever known. Your uniqueness tends to provoke much more curiosity than xenophobia, however. You can choose to catch the attention of any creature you want, even if you're in a large crowd. What they do with that attention will likely depend on the exact nature of their motivations and your appearance, but you can always get it. plus-circleE.T. In Drag: You can semi-hide your unusual appearance if you do not wish to draw too much unusual attention. You are only remarkably different when you choose to be. |
|
|---|---|---|
| Social | plus-circleStrange Tongue: Out of necessity, you learned whatever the local common tongue is very quickly after your arrival but you also know a strange, foreign language from your distant home. You are (probably) the only creature in the entire campaign world that knows this language, unless you choose to teach it to others. With your constant, direct tutelage your home language is considered Common (and thus can be learned by a student for 5 Dosh, or 1 Dosh if your student knows the Polyglot ability from the Scholar class). Anybody else attempting to learn the language, even from one of your students, treats it as an Exotic language instead (impossible to learn for anybody except those who have the Polyglot ability). | |
| Utility | plus-circleStrange Lore: You brought something with you from your distant home, some form of unusual tool or knowledge that was perfectly ordinary where you come from but potentially very strange in your new surroundings. Name any class in the game (with referee approval), including those that are not unlocked for use in your campaign world and even (or maybe especially) classes that will never otherwise be unlocked for use in your campaign world. You can always take levels in the selected class without a keystone. For example, you could be a Gunslinger in a bog-standard fantasy knights-and-castles world, a Necromancer on a space station, or something similarly out of place. | |
Audacity
| Social | plus-circleGaijin Smash: You're clearly an outsider, so nobody expects you to know all the social rules and etiquette. So long as you aren't being outwardly aggressive in any way, nobody will be upset at you or attempt any serious punishment if you break a convention or two (like looking the Queen in the eyes, wiping your mouth with the tablecloth, walking into somebody else's home, jumping a turnstile without paying, or whatever else). At worst, you will be escorted out and asked in monosyllabic, clearly enunciated words not to return. | |
|---|---|---|
Goodwill
| Social | plus-circleFraternity: You are recognized as a kindred spirit by any other people you meet that can be classified as some form of wanderer or outsider: hobos, nomads, carnies, refugees, or similar. Any creature with at least one level in the Outsider class also qualifies, no matter where they came from. Such people will automatically have an attitude towards you of Welcoming and offer you hospitality freely. minus-circleGuesthood: If you behave poorly, all your initial goodwill goes away. Respect is a two-way street, even for you. |
|
|---|---|---|
| caret-right | Alternative | plus-circleSacred Hospitality: You can choose for any creature to welcome you as a guest, not just your fellow outsiders. You can even use this to force an (honorable) enemy to put you up for the night and talk with you instead of trying to run you through. minus-circleMojo: Invoking the laws of hospitality on a non-outsider costs 1 Mojo. |
Unorthodox
| Utility | plus-circleAlien Context: Sometimes your outsider status is actually helpful to you, since it lets you see problems with a completely different paradigm than that of the locals. Even when you're as clueless as everybody else, however, you've gotten by on pure chutzpah enough that you don't need to understand what's happening in order to figure out how to fix it. During an operation challenge you can choose to use any knack in the game, even ones that you don't have access to or even know. minus-circleExpanded Lockout: If your trigger die roll to use a knack with Unorthodox fails, you lock out your ability to continue using Unorthodox during the current challenge instead of locking out the knack you were using. minus-circleMojo: Using any knack that you wouldn't normally be able to use costs 1 Mojo each time, even if the attempt fails. |
|
|---|---|---|
Enterprises
| Outsider 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 Dosh each. |
