Ride Schticks (Action)

Heroic Action Role-Play

Beast Jockey

Inherent

You are at home in the saddle and treat all Terrain Driving tasks as routine as long as you are riding a live beast.

Drifter

Inherent

You spend a lot of time on the road, and have a tendency to just happen to be there when it happens. Any time another character is alone and needs help, you can show up with an opposed Ride against the best skill among the opposition - as long as it is even remotely plausible.

Fast Hero

Trigger Action (Focus)

When you sit down at the controls of a vehicle, and in the first round of an action sequence when you are driving a vehicle, you can focus.

You are also a lucky guy; people tend to leave their cars empty with the motor running near you. At the end of any round when it makes any kind of sense in the story you can find vehicles suitable for a chase ready and waiting for both you and your opposition, turning an ordinary scene into a chase scene. If an enemy makes a getaway you will generally find a suitable vehicle to chase them with, but sometimes villains are meant to escape and no pursuit will be possible.

Final Push

Inherent

When you make a successful Ride stunt, you can add three to the Outcome of the action, increasing the chance to score a Setback.

Fit Hero

Inherent

You have great Endurance. Substitute your Ride for your Body when using Endurance, Hold Breath and other stamina-related stunts.

Keep track of your direction while power riding; only one direction change per round is allowed. You use Ride stunts rather than Maneuver stunts when freeriding.
