<h1>BONDS</h1>
<p>Heroes need connections to grow stronger — and Bonds represent exactly that.</p>
<p>A Bond can be tied to one to three emotions, each belonging to one of three different pairings, as shown on the character sheet:</p>
<h2>Classes and Skills</h2>
<p>Whenever your character gains a level, that level will be put in one of the fifteen Classes available in this book: either to develop an already obtained Class or start a new one. Each Class grants a variety of Skills and abilities, and you choose which ones you want to invest in — even if you and another hero share some Class choices, your characters will end up being very different in how they are built and played.</p>
<p>Some Class Skills can be taken multiple times, becoming stronger or more flexible whenever you do so. When the same Skill is taken multiple times, its Skill Level — abbreviated as <strong>【SL】</strong> — will also increase. For instance, if you take the Guardian's Fortress Skill twice (see page 197), its 【SL】 will be equal to 2.</p>
<p>If you want to take a look at the various Classes and their Skills, you can find them starting on page 176.</p>
<h2>Attributes</h2>
<p>A character's Attributes are an abstract representation of their training and aptitudes in four different fields:</p>
<ul>
<li>Admiration or inferiority;</li>
<li>Loyalty or mistrust;</li>
<li>Affection or hatred.</li>
<li><strong>Dexterity (DEX)</strong> measures precision, coordination, finesse and reflexes. You will need it to move cautiously, defend yourself from attacks, craft objects, and fight using light weapons, bows, and firearms.</li>
<li><strong>Insight (INS)</strong> represents observation, understanding, and reasoning. It is important when investigating situations, casting spells, and defending yourself from magic.</li>
<li><strong>Might (MIG)</strong> is a measure of strength and fortitude. Most heavy weapons rely on Might, and your ability to withstand pain and fatigue is also tied to this Attribute in the form of Hit Points (see below).</li>
<li><strong>Willpower (WLP)</strong> represents determination, charisma, and discipline. You use your Willpower for diplomacy and persuasion, but it also directly influences your ability to cast spells and use special Skills, in the form of Mind Points (see below).</li>
</ul>
<p>For each emotion in a Bond, the strength of that Bond is increased by one (up to a strength of 3 if you have an emotion in each pairing).</p>
<p><strong>Example:</strong> If you have a Bond of inferiority and loyalty towards the Sapphire Princess, the strength of that Bond is 2. If you later begin to also feel affection towards her, its strength becomes 3.</p>
<p>Just like Traits, Bonds can be invoked to improve your die rolls, and they can also boost your ability to help your companions.</p>
<p>A character may have up to six Bonds at the same time. More information on Bonds can be found on page 56.</p>
<h2>FABULA POINTS</h2>
<p>A powerful currency in the game that will come and go is Fabula Points. They can be earned by facing adversities, and spent to invoke Traits and Bonds, as well as fuel a variety of special effects. Players can also spend Fabula Points to introduce new elements into the story and shape the world around their characters!</p>
<h2>CHARACTER LEVEL</h2>
<p>Your character's level is an abstract indication of their power. Characters generally begin their adventures at level 5 and can climb up to level 50.</p>
<p>On average, you should gain enough Experience Points to reach a new level at the end of every other session. The details of this system can be found on page 226.</p>
<p>Each Attribute is represented by a die size, ranging from a six-sided die (d6) up to a powerful twelve-sided die (d12). Some effects will temporarily alter your Attribute die sizes: this is known as the current Attribute die size, while your default size is called the base Attribute die size.</p>
