| [[Ranks | Rank]] allows you to demand more rights and privileges than the ordinary person (or have it demanded of them). People will typically obey someone of a higher rank, even if they know the request is wrong, unethical, or illegal. When a person of higher rank demands something of another that would not normally be accepted by that person, each person makes a Will roll. If you receive a greater number of Ss than the other party, the person will accede to your request (the higher-ranking party wins ties). Note that your Will roll can include a number of [[Main Page | bonus dice]], [[Main Page | penalty dice]] (these are marked with a negative number of bonus dice on the chart), and/or extra levels, depending on your rank. See the table below for specifics.

If you wish to begin the game at a lower rank, you get some extra CP to spend during character creation. If you want to start at a higher rank, you pay for it with CP. A higher rank allows you to demand more rights and privileges than the ordinary person (or others may demanded it for you). People will typically obey someone of a higher rank, even if they know the request is wrong, unethical, or illegal. When a person of higher rank demands something of another, if the demand is at odds with the morals, goals, etc. of the other person, both people make a Will roll. The person with the greater number of Ss gets their way (though note that the higher-ranking party always wins ties). Your rank can modify your Will roll by giving you either [[Main Page | penalty dice]] or extra levels and/or [[Main Page | bonus dice]].

Cost: -5 CP or 5 CP / level. See table below for specifics.
Description: You were born into a family in a higher or lower tier on the social scale than the average person - or you may have moved into your current tier on your own.
Gameplay: The GM will determine the Rank the average PC holds at the beginning of the game. If you wish to begin the game at a lower rank, you get some extra CP to spend during character creation. If you want to start at a higher rank, you pay for it with CP. A higher rank allows you to demand more rights and privileges than the ordinary person (or others may demanded it for you). People will typically obey someone of a higher rank, even if they know the request is wrong, unethical, or illegal. When a person of higher rank demands something of another, if the demand is at odds with the morals, goals, etc. of the other person, both people make a Will roll. The person with the greater number of Ss gets their way (though note that the higher-ranking party always wins ties). Your rank can modify your Will roll by giving you either penalty dice or extra levels and/or bonus dice. (Penalty dice are marked with a negative number of bonus dice on the chart). See the table below for specifics.

Note: This CP cost on this table assumes the typical PC starts the game at rank 1. For games with a different average starting rank, adjust the CP cost upward or downward as appropriate. This does not affect the bonus or extra dice you receive at each rank.
