Streat trash

 Why not make some of the bigger aspects, into backgrounds instead,

 like say Street trash: "You were born, in poverty,

 

               maybe as a result X. You've learn to survive of your wits and

               skills."

                           (name needs a bit of work, this is just an idea. it doesn't fit streettrash

                        so much

                           as fitting anyone who needs to be cunning, better fluff is required,.

                        ballance needs to be chaecked.  a better name might be street survivor idk

                        this is really just to show that other backgrounds are possible

)

                           

                           I am aware that I've used a lot of skills here,

                           But having more skill can be really cool,

                           I mean most classes only start with two skills,

                           Though I think I do need to cut down on the skills in this,

                           this is very much just a quick sketch out of a rough idea)

                           

                           

                           Street trash treat Blather as a basic skill,

                           a begin play trained in deceive.                        

                           Distracting opponents

                           with quick words, has helped many escape from a sticky situation

                           

                           

                           traits +ve:

                           Thief:

                           You've had to steal to survive, or maybe it's just greed.

                           you begin play trained in security or sleight of hand.

                           

                           Uncanny luck: begin play trained in Gamble

                           and may treat sleight of hand as a basic skill.

 

                           Truly Uncanny Luck:

                           Once per session, upon rolling a skill check,

                           After the dice has been rolled,

                           You may roll 1d10 and deduct that from your previous roll.

                           this does not require a fate point to be spent.

                           

                           

                           Fast Eyes and Faster Mind:

                           knowing what others are up to has always been advantageous to you;

                           You begin play trained in Lip reading and Scrutiny

                           

                           

                           

                           Unparsed.

                           On the street bad shit can go down,

                           you know that if you let it affect you now

                           while it's still happening that could be unsafe.

                           You mind instinctively projects itself,

                           until it has time to deal with the problems.

                           If you take Insanity, or ego barrier damage,

                           you may choose to delay its effect until you can deal with it.

                           for every 5 rounds you delay, you take 1 additional point of appropriate damage.

                           

                           **!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                           ** This assumes that insanity points nolonger have the dark hersy rule

                           ** of not having any effect until end of combat.

                           **I take this belief from my reading of the angel Arael

                           ** who has notes about what he would do if he turned someone

                           ** insane incombat.

                           **

                           ** possible rewrite would be you can hold of ego damage

                           ** (but not inbsanity since it's already held off)

                           ** but for every five rounds held off you take

                           ** 1 extra ego damage and one extra instanity damage

                           ** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

                           

                           

                           Light Touch:

                           you try not to leave a mark on the world.

                           You do not incur the usual 1 pt of Collateral damage from being deployed,

                           (while you do sell incidentally damage everything you touch,

                           you do so much less than most pilots, and it is comparatively negligible)

                           the are with which you act pays off too:

                           in combat; until you cause a point of collateral damage

                           you get a +10 bonus to you Sync Ratio.

                           

                           Your Own Man: anyone attempting to use the command skill on you

                           takes a -20 penalty

                         

                         

                          ~~~maybe something like people forget you are in the room (1 in 10 chance) seems very OP though

                           ~~~  Maybe something about always fitting in, people forget that your new. I don't know

                           

                           

                           Traits -ve

                           Hoarder:

                           You've never had much, and when you do have something, you've loath to give it up.

                           If every anyone takes something of yours, (with or without your permission) roll a d10,

                           if it comes up 3 or less you take 1 level of fatigue for the next week

                           

                           Secretive:

                           You can't trust anyone, never have been able to.

                           you were betrayed some time in your life.

                           Explain yourself, your thoughts, you're feeling or your actions

                                Work out who and why with your GM.

                                You place caring for this person above all else.

                                If you ever become aware that this person is indirect danger,

                                you must pass a difficult (-10) willpower test or rush to their aid.

                                If they are ever seriously hurt, (whether or not it is your fault, you'll blame yourself anyway for not being there)

                            you loose 1d10 sanity points

                                If the ever die you will loose 2d10+10 sanity points
