| MOUNT Description: You have a horse, mule, or similar mount. Though must faster on your mount, you potentially leave yourself open to a devastating attack. Mechanic: Your Swiftness modifier is doubled while using this ability for the purpose of determining turn order and fleeing battle. However, if an opponent makes a successful Attack against your Defense with the intent to unhorse you (they must announce this intent before making the attack), you take +50% damage (8 becomes 12) from that attack and lose your next turn. You may gain the +10 bonus on a lance as if charging without giving up all other actions while on a mount, and a character taking the Knight ability path may take this ability in place of Wind Walk. You may not use this ability in any location too small for your mount to walk through. Using this ability is otherwise automatic.

| TIME TRAVEL Description: By using a specially designed clock, you can travel through time, although this trip is fraught with strange perils. Mechanic: When activating this ability, make a Magic check. The resulting total will tell you how many years forward or back in time you can go (you must decide if you are going back or forward in time before making the check). Next, roll a d100. If your result on the d100 is equal to or less than your Magic total, you arrive safely in the desired year of your own timeline, at which point you create an alternate timeline whose history from that point on is potentially different from the history of the timeline you came from. If you die in that timeline, you appear in the afterlife of the timeline you originally came from. Returning to your own timeline, or a specific alternate timeline, requires an additional Magic check that must match or beat the Magic total last used to leave the timeline in question.
If you fail at the Magic check to arrive in the desired year, you arrive a number of years too far in the direction desired equal to the difference between your Magic total and the result of the d100. Additionally, the storyteller rolls on the following table to see if you arrive in an alternate reality drastically different than your own.
RANDOM ALTERNATE REALITIES d20 Alternate Reality Traits 1: Everyone in the new reality is either predominantly good or evil (storyteller's choice) 2: Reality is dominated by a specific creature, race, or type 3: Reality is slowly unraveling; patches that act as the ability Instant Death if touched appear at random. 4: Reality views you as either good or evil, whichever the opposite of your normal behavior is. 5. You gain a random racial package, chosen by the storyteller. Reality views you accordingly. 6. Your abilities shift to follow an ability path, chosen by the storyteller. Reality views you accordingly. 7. You are a different gender; reality views you accordingly. 8. You gain a granted ability, chosen by the storyteller. Reality views you accordingly. 9. One of your allies has died (or is alive again, if previously dead) in this reality. 10. One of your enemies has died (or is alive again, if previously dead) in this reality. 11. You are dead. You adopt the Spirit racial package. Reality views you accordingly. 12. You were never an adventurer. You are 1st level and have abilities that reflect what you might have done in a civilian life. 13. You are actually one of your allies (chosen by the storyteller). Reality views you accordingly. 14. You are actually one of your enemies (chosen by the storyteller). Reality views you accordingly. 15. You arrive in the distant past 16. You arrive in the Renaissance Era 17. You arrive in the Modern Era 18. You arrive in the Future Era 19. You arrive in a bizarre dimension where normal is weird and weird is normal. 20. You are in your own timeline; you simply move too far forward or back.
This ability may not be combined with any other abilities in the same turn.
