Whenever you accumulate 2 experience, your
character gains a level. You receive 1
experience for answering yes to any of the
advancement questions on the following page.
These can only be used once per character. No
character can gain more than 2 experience per
session. If you can answer yes to more than 2
advancement questions in one session, choose
which will grant you experience.

On leveling, you can raise 2 different stats of

your choice by 1 point. Stats may never be
raised higher than +10, although some gear or
magical effects may break this rule.

Traits grant you unique abilities which can aid

you or your allies. Regular traits can be taken at
level 2, while expert traits can be chosen starting
at level 5. Some expert traits require that you
have obtained a prerequisite trait. While any
combination of traits can be chosen, a referee
may prohibit certain combinations at their
discretion.

By default, you don’t gain health upon leveling

up. Instead, if you want to be more resilient, you
must take the Healthy trait.

You have a level limit of 10. After level 10, you

may retire to become a renowned character in
the game world. Work together with the referee
to decide what impact the retiring character has
on the world, including the character’s plot
hooks and the future quests they could provide.
Your retired character also gains an apprentice
who starts at level 3 and whom you now control.
