Advancement

Advancement is how your character grows from a Novice to a Legendary hero.

The pace of Advancements varies by the length of a campaign and what's happening. For shorter campaigns, you may Advance each session or in the middle during a One-Short. Generally you'll get one every 2 or 3 sessions or milestones depending on what the Game Master decides.

Using an Advance

A player may choose one of the following when they gain an advance:

Rank

As a character gains Advances, she goes up in “Rank”, which is a rough measure of power. Each Rank allows access to more powerful Edges and certain abilities.

0-3Novice
4-7Seasoned
8-12Veteran
13-17Heroic
18+Legendary

Allies & Advancement

Followers and other allies who stay with the party for extended periods can improve their abilities as well.

At the end of a game session in which the allies had a significant role (usually by participating in combat, but GM's call). Advance them just as you would the player characters.
