D20
ICoreD20 Armored Maneuvers
- Basic/Proficient [ Kinetic Aptitude 1] Armor that already has Resilience and is not already useless, gains one extra measure as if the armor was Fitted to the character, which can only be used by them until they take it off. Once the normal resilience of an item is used, the extra measure can be employed. Once this is used or the item shed or dropped, it is considered useless.
- Accomplished: [ Kinetic Aptitude 2] Any Medium or Heavy Armor reduces 1 Damage of Pierce, Bludgeon, or Slashing damage per hit. If the character has the Feats of both Medium Armor Mastery and Heavy Armor Mastery, the character may apply the 3 pt. damage reduction for heavy armor to medium armor as well.
- Exceptional: [ Kinetic Aptitude 3] Having either Medium Armor Mastery or Heavy Armor Mastery grants 1 point of damage reduction to Light Armor as well, for non-magical Pierce, Bludgeon, or Slashing damage per hit.
- Masterful: [ Kinetic Aptitude 4] Having both Medium Armor Mastery and Heavy Armor Mastery grants 3 point of damage reduction to any Light Armor that possesses Resilience as well, for non-magical Pierce, Bludgeon, or Slashing damage per hit. When the character attacks, they may spend a chi point as a Reaction to negate a use of Resilience against them.

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).
D20 Enhanced Kinetic Affinity
The character receives a bonus to a skill based on an Ability saving throw the character is proficient in, chosen at the time the aptitude was acquired. The character also gains Chi (essentially Kinetic Anima). In both cases, the bonus is equal to their measures of Kinetic Aptitude.

Bound to the Pattern
Posted on March 26, 2018 in D20 Trait
Pattern Bound is a specific Pattern Expression for a character. The character’s Essence is bound more tightly to The Pattern, creating a narrower but deeper weave. This aspect is visible with Aura Sight.
D20 Bound to the Pattern
- If a character takes their first Feat (at 4th level) and it is directly related to their Natural Talent aptitude (for the Primary Class only), they may take it at 3rd level instead.
- The character’s level is increased by 1 for determining which Aptitude powers they have access to.
- Each additional class after the primary takes 1 Essence, and the multiclassing requirements go up by 2. All other multiclassing mechanics stay the same.

Decrepitude (Accelerated/Delayed)
Posted on December 28, 2017 in D20 iCore Trait
Decrepitude Relating to the impact of age on Character Life Cycle. It applies to physical and mental unless noted otherwise. Permanent conditions imposing changes to decrepitude are rare.
This trait is restricted by race for PC characters; The Game Master, Setting, and/or story elements will determine what is relevant and/or appropriate by species; This can only be taken once at the time of @Character Inception; If a race grants one aspect, a player can pay the diff. in CP for the next.
Accelerated Decrepitude
This is a serious weakening of the body’s normal regenerative and restorative processes that occurs as part of normal aging. A creature’s normal arc of degeneration is accelerated. Characters affected have their overall life span reduced by 10%. Additionally, the last half of their Adult life cycle is considered Elderly now.
Extreme Acceleration: The last 3/4 of their Adult life cycle is considered Elderly now.
Delayed Decrepitude
Delayed Decrepitude is a biological condition that suspends the normal imperfect process of aging until the last few days or months of a creatures normal life span. It does not extend lifespan beyond normal for a species. The first half of their Elderly life cycle is considered Adult now.
Extreme Delay: The entire Elderly life cycle is considered Adult, until the last 10 [daily] cycles of their life. The character catches up in the last .001 or .0001 percent of their normal allotted years.
