Daredevil

Daredevil

15 points

Fortune seems to smile on you when you take risks! Any time you take an unnecessary risk (in the GM's opinion), you get a +1 to all skill rolls. Furthermore, you may reroll any critical failure that occurs during such high-risk behavior.

Example: A gang of thugs opens fire on you with automatic weapons. If you crouch down behind a wall and return fire from cover, Daredevil gives no bonuses. If you vault over the wall and charge the gunmen, screaming, it provides all of its benefits!

Supers: Daredevil

15 points/level

A lot of supers get a thrill out of combat and take reckless chances. This advantage is especially appropriate for teenage sidekicks; it helps make up for their not being fully trained in combat or the use of their powers.

At the GM's option this can be a leveled trait, with an upper limit suited to the feel of the game. Two levels are appropriate for a four-color campaign; four levels suit a humorous campaign where suicidal idiocy in combat grants +4 to effective skill.
