The Tier System
The tier system was designed to let players, as they grow in power, become more skilled in their area of expertise, as they progress they unlock new abilities in their skills and gain bonuses to skills, boosts to items, abilities, or even gain new abilities that are previously unavailable.
Tier System
Tier 1 (The first tier, each tier cost 3 points)
Tier 2 (You can’t get one tier till you have the tier before it)
Tier 3a (either one or both of these can be taken but only one is needed to go to the next tier)
Tier 3b
Tier 4 (Higher tiers have level limits)
Level Limits of tiers, Tier 1 = no limit, Tier 2 = no limit, Tier 3 = level 3, Tier 4 = level 6,
Tier 5 = level 9, Tier 6 = level 12
Skill Boosts do not stack, a +5 is replaced by a +10 when the next level is bought.
Healing Tier however the healing numbers do stack thus a player that has tier 1 and two can do 1d8 once and 2d8
Unless otherwise stated all of these tiers can gain additional uses through buying addition uses through build points.
Master and Pupil
A player that takes on a master to train in skills may in time show skill in the tasks and training be rewarded a Tier choice in their training without the cost of build points. Taking a master’s is a great idea early in the game or even later when one wants to accomplish a difficult task beyond their skill. A staple of the anime world is to have a skilled master teach pupil lessons in some skills much the way a student learns from their master in martial arts. The GM will however have complete control over said Master and can at any time have them enter or leave the group. They are treated as powerful NPCs that will have set tasks of focus on their skill and won’t get involved in the decisions of the players unless they feel they have to.
This builds the chance to have great story elements of the game develop from the Master’s life and interaction with their pupil. (Don’t be afraid to have a cut scene death with the master to have greater player character growth)
