Archetype Feats

Finding Your Speciality

Every mutant is different.

Archetypes provide a broad indication of how a character's abilities naturally lend themselves to action, but they do not determine everything that character will become.

As your character gains Feats, you have a choice.

You can select from the General Feat List, creating a versatile mutant with abilities drawn from many different areas.

Or you can begin developing along your character's Archetype Feat Path, gaining specialised abilities designed specifically around the strengths of your chosen archetype.

You may freely mix General and Archetype Feats.

There is no requirement to complete an Archetype Feat Path.

MIXING ARCHETYPE AND GENERAL FEATS

Archetype Feats are options, not restrictions.

A Level 6 Brawler might concentrate entirely upon the Guardian Path: Human Shield → Hold the Line → Last One Standing creating an exceptional protector.

Another Brawler might choose: Heavy Hitter → Power Attack → Knockback → Toughness and become a straightforward powerhouse.

A third could take: Human Shield → Natural Leader → Heroic Resolve → Skill Focus (Empathy) creating a Brawler whose greatest contribution to the team may actually be leadership rather than punching things through walls.

Likewise, players can cross between the two specialised paths within their own Archetype.

A Speedster could take: Accelerate → Hyper Reflexes → Running Start → Blink and You'll Miss Me rather than completing either chain.
