Special Abilities
- Starting Skills: A Naaz-Rokha starts with one rank in Computers and one rank in Coordination. They obtain these ranks before spending experience point, and they may not increase Computers or Coordination above rank 2 during character creation.
- Symbiotic Partnership: A Naaz-Rokha is a single player character with two independent sets of characteristics and derived attributes. The Naaz and the Rokha operate as independent beings who share the same skills and talents. During the Naaz-Rokha’s turn, as long as neither the Naaz nor the Rokha is incapacitated and they are within short range of each other, the Naaz-Rokha may perform one additional free maneuver without suffering strain (they may still only perform two maneuvers each turn).
- Symbiotic Operation: When your character performs an action, choose whether the Naaz or the Rokha is performing the action; use that being’s relevant characteristics, and use the appropriate skill from the shared skill list. When your character is targeted by an attack, skill check, or effect, as long as the Naaz and the Rokha are within short range of each other, choose which one is the target. In specific circumstances in which it may not make sense for you to choose which member of the pair acts or is targeted, your GM can make the decision instead.
- Character Death: When the Naaz or the Rokha is killed, you may choose to retire your character (with the living member of the pair retiring from adventuring and going into mourning) or continue playing with only one member of the pair (but in this case, you cannot add a ‘new’ member to replace the dead one).
- Symbiotic Advancements: Your character has a single skill list and single talent list. Skills and talents are purchased for your character as normal. When your character increases a characteristic or a derived attribute, choose whether that increase applies to the Naaz profile or the Rokha profile.
- Need a Lift?: A Naaz is silhouette 0. A Rokha is silhouette 1.
- Harness: All Rokha in a partnership wear a harness that allows their Naaz to ride on their shoulders. The harness is equipment with an encumbrance value of 0, and while the Naaz is riding on the Rokha’s shoulders, they may move with the Rokha without spending a maneuver.
