Kinetic Affinity

Posted on December 14, 2020 in D20 iCore Trait

Kinetic Affinity represents a certain predisposition to follow related threads of The Pattern related to Kinetic Aptitude.

Outlook: [This indicates the emphasis the character will use on addressing issues/problem solving and accumulating power using associated capabilities that rely on the aptitude of this measure.] The more affinity a character possesses, the greater the propensity to leverage related capabilities/powers over other aptitude’s powers. Ex: A character with high kinetic affinity will examine the options for physical power based solutions first in any given situation (e.g. kicking in a door as opposed to using a spell to open it).

Kinetic Affinity is directly tied to Kinetic Aptitude.
CP: (if used)
Story: Like all features, GM fiat/story can also grant some or all measures.
