-Shop based (based on points from completed rps)
-+2 for adult +3 for elder
-soulbounded
-permanent boost to basic attacks using weapon.
-Rp reasons, maybe: Old relics

Creating Enchanted Weapons:
-can create as many mundane none boosted weapons as they would like.
-Can only make a boosted weapon using item from shop(based on points and completed rps)
- Can buy the item and gift the weapon to someone else but it will be a mundane weapon until the other person rps to get a soulbound item..item. (take normal cost for one person and split it)

Enchanted Item:
-shop based (based on points from rp)
-Either using weapon or item in battle.
-charge on item. acts like a power.
-soulbounded

Regular item:
1 charge.


*Soulbound items are protected by Gaia's power unless given up willingly, which turns them back to mundane items until soul bounded again. (These can not be gifted unless the character gifted has completed all rp requirements to get one, buying a soulbound item does not work in this case)



Collars:
Collars are made and used by research centers, bounty hunters, military, police, and some criminal elements. They are able to prevent the use of powers but they can be overpowered.

Threshold: 34

Characters wanting to overpower their collar need to roll on or over 34 with the ability they want to use. If they reach 34 then that skill's full power is unleashed. They will have to re-roll and hit or pass 34 the next round again if they want to use the skill again. Each attempt takes stamina.

Hacking and Security

Hacking:
*Dice change for basic

This is one of the few places where basic rolls can be higher since a human and a meta hacker are on equal footing. A meta might be able to do it faster than a human but they are near equal.

If this is an ability that a human/true race has then it has to be describe in their profile prior to turning it in. If learned during the course of the rp, max is 7d6(ways to grow are still being figured out) . If learned prior, needs to receive an okay from broken_illumination to use 8-10d6.

Thresholds:
Low security: 19
Medium security: 28 Cell phone centers.
High security: 34. Military, Haven, Police, Government, SIU

-Six attempts per day, attempting more than this auto alerts the system being hacked.

- Places where computer-based metas are connected might allow only 3 attempts before auto alert.

Security: Security differ from place to place, these are of note.
