GENERAL PERK:
Terran Study
Prerequisite: Cannot originally be from Earth
You have been studying a great deal about the people and cultures of Terra, or Earth. This grants you the following benefits:
• You gain Edge when using your Cultures skill about humanity.
• You have Edge on Deception, Insight, and Persuasion skill checks that target human beings.
• Gain fluency in two Earth-based languages of your choice.



Influence:
Adventurer
	Bond: I’m the den parent for my team, looking after them like they’re helpless cubs
	Perk: You’re passionate about exploring new places, environments, and cultures and have a deep wealth of stories to draw from. Once per scene when you draw upon your experiences with a short story of your adventures, you gain an Edge on a Smarts or Social test.
	Hang-up: You have a bad case of wanderlust, and find staying in place for long incredibly boring. You suffer a Snag on Social and Smarts Skill Tests when you’ve been in the same place more than a few days
Not From Around Here
	Bond: I keep a secret about my home that I am afraid may be revealed.
	Perk: You gain an Edge on Skill Tests outside of combat where your distinct upbringing or unusual background comes into play. You know one additional language.
Teacher
	Bond: Teaching others about the things I’m passionate about is truly fulfilling
	Perk: Your passion for passing on knowledge to others allows you to inspire them to achieve greatness. When a fellow Power Ranger must make a non-combat skill check, you may Lend Assistance with an additional Edge. If the skill is one in which you have specialized, you may Lend Assistance with two additional Edges, but the task takes twice as long to accomplish, as you are teaching how to do it.
	Hang-up: You cannot resist a teaching moment, and insist on showing others “how it is done” before allowing them to try on their own. In any non-combat situation in which you have more skill than a team member, you will force yourself into doing the task first, even if strategically or socially unsound.
