This card is always considered to be in play.

Opponents seem to miss you, a lot.

You have +SR DEF.

Lucky To Be Alive

Recharge: 0

Luck, React

You avoid certain death.

If some effect or event would result in your death, you may play this card.

You somehow avoid the situation that would have killed you. If you are reacting to an attack, the attack completely misses you and has no effect. If it is a story event or situation, you somehow escape it.

Each time you use this Stunt it's SR is permanently reduced by 1, and it cannot be used while at SR 0. Make sure to "pay in advance".

Lucky Guess

Luck, Passive

Prereq: Intuition trained

Each Act, put (SR/2) # of tokens on this card, rounded up. Unused tokens from previous Acts do not accumulate.

You are capable of guessing major clues.

During Story Mode you may remove a token from this card to compel the GM to give you a significant clue or insight into the story's plot. You may ask for this information to be granted privately if you do not desire to share this information directly with other players or prefer to present it in character yourself.

Note: if an Act spans multiple sessions, you should keep track of how many recharge tokens remain between sessions.

Fortune: 2

Luck, React

If an opponent attempts to attack you with a weapon or other hand held device you may play this card.
