Agile
The character has superb reflexes. The character adds one tenth of their Athletics skill to Initiative Bonus.
Charming
The character is highly charismatic. Any skill with CHA as a base characteristic is always one grade easier.
Danger Sense
The character has an uncanny intuition of personal danger and never suffers the negative game effects for being surprised.
Deadshot
The character is a natural marksman. Aiming for one round reduces the situational Difficulty by two grades instead of one.
Eidetic Memory
The character has an eidetic memory and can memorize an image, page of writing, scene, sound, etc. perfectly by spending 1d6 minutes studying it. The character can recall or recite the precise details and nature of the subject at will. Details do not fade with age or time.
Enhanced Balance
The character’s sense of balance is acute. Athletics and Acrobatics are always one grade easier. If forced to use Evade to avoid an attack, the character is never left prone.
Enhanced Sight
The character can see normally in near-total darkness and suffers no modifiers due to the absence of light. All Perception rolls involving vision are one grade easier.
Mathematical Savant
The character is adept at complex mental mathematics and deductions of probability. Any skill requiring the application of mathematics, including Commerce, Electronics, Engineering, Gambling, and Science are always at one grade easier. In addition, the character can accurately perform in one Round of intense concentration any mathematical calculation that an ordinary person would require many hours of work with pencil and paper.
Forgettable
The character’s face and voice are indistinct and cannot be remembered by most witnesses. Strangers or casual acquaintances require a Herculean Willpower roll to remember the character or details about them.
Species Perfection

Iron Mind

Communicating in an unfamiliar language is always one grade easier, and the character can learn any language they have been exposed to for more than a few hours by spending 1 Experience Roll.
Natural Liar
The character can lie with ease and conviction. All Deceit rolls are two grades easier than the norm. Truth drugs have no effect on the character, and mechanical lie detectors show that the character is telling the truth even when they are lying.
Null-Force
The character is effectively a blank spot in the Force. They are unaffected by most Force Traits but they can be injured through physical manifestations of the Force, e.g., being moved by or having something thrown at them via Telekinesis. A Null-Force character by definition cannot be a Jedi, Sith, or other Force user, regardless of their POW. Characters are unaffected by Aura, Coerce, Illusion, Leech, Telepathy, and Violate. The character effectively possesses the Concealment Force Trait, constantly.
Perceptive
The character has enhanced powers of perception. All Perception rolls are one grade easier. Stimuli related to their enhanced perception are that much more vivid, apparent, intricate, distinct, and so forth.
Quick
The character's movement rate is double the species norm. The character can disengage from melee combat without using an Action Point or requiring an opposed skill test.
Regenerative
The character’s Healing Rate is 2d2 points higher than normal. Not only does the character heal faster, but wounds do not leave any scar tissue. The character cannot regenerate amputated body parts but if a body part suffers a Major Wound and remains attached to the body, it will regenerate given enough healing time.
Resilient
