No skills at 9-10 without GM permission. In order to make a roll, a character must have at least a “familiarity” (zero level in the skill, costs 1/2 point). Characters get certain “everyman” skills for free, at familiarity level.

None at 9 or above without GM permission. Total: 10 Focus: This is the Grit of the Character: it represents how much they can push themselves in the pursuit of their beliefs. Based on the Prologue and the background you subsequently write, the GM will assign you a focus rating, with a 10 level hierarchy of focus that determines in what sorts of actions you may use your focus. If you fail on Focused actions, you may lose Focus and/or Path. Path: The Gemini is a strange place, and not everyone values the same things. Based on the Prologue and the background you subsequently write, the GM will assign you a path and a level along that path, with a 10 level hierarchy of sins that you must adhere to. If you fail to do so, you may lose path and/or focus. Cost before Adds/Disads: 262 +20 Adds Total Cost: 282
