Mind (Action)
Heroic Action Role-Play |
In earlier stages of development, there was a Chi attribute, which has since been merged with Mind. All references to Chi in the rules now applies to Mind instead.
Mind is a measure of your ki, ego, ability to concentrate, and inner strength. It indicates how good a grasp you have of the extraordinary, supernatural,and divine. A high mind score means that you are focused but still mentally agile; hard to persuade yet insightful and able to understand ideas and concepts outside of your fields of expertise.
Fortune
Mind is the basis of Fortune. Whether you wish to express this as the favor of the gods, the ability to go with the flow of ki, or merely foresight and intuition, the fact is that some peopople have an uncanny ability to put in extra energy just when it matters most.
Your Mind score is an upper limit on your daily expenditure of Fortune points. When you have spent as many Fortune points as your Mind, you cannot spend any more. If your Mind goes up or down for some reason, so does your limit on Fortune, but you should still keep a running total of the number of points you spend. A temporary increase in Mind allows you to overexpend, if your Mind changes you can only spend additional Fortune points if your running total is less than your current Mind score.
