Talents

Combat

  • Bar Brawler: Artie adds Advantage-result.png to Brawl checks and combat checks using improvised weapons.

Movement

  • Let's Ride: Once, during Artie's Strip, he can use and Incidental to mount or dismount from a vehicle or animal, or move from one position in a vehicle to another (such as from the cockpit to a gun turret). In addition, if Artie suffers a short-range fall (see page 112) from a vehicle or animal, He suffer no damage and lands on his feet.

Social

  • Clever Retort (Rank 1): Once per Conflict, Artie may activate this Talent as an Out-of-Turn Incidental to add Threat-result.png to another character's Social Skill Check.
  • Customer Service Experience (Rank 1): After Artie rolls a Charm Check, but before cancelling and resolving results, he use an Incidental to spend 1 Strain to remove one Threat-result.png.
  • Smooth Talker (Rank 1): When Artie performs a Charm Check, he may spend Triumph-result.png to gain additional Success-result.png.
    • Talk Shop: Artie may use an Incidental when making a Charm check targeting an engineer, mechanic, scientist, or similar individual to count their ranks of Charm as equal to their ranks in Knowledge or Mechanics.

Skill Enhancement

  • All Terrain Driver: Artie does not suffer penalties for driving in rough terrain.

Utility

  • Deep Pockets: Once per Issue, Artie may use a Panel to produce a small but narratively useful item from their pockets, backpack, or similar receptacle (it turns out the item had been there the whole time). Your GM has final say as to what items can be produced with Deep Pockets, but generally the item should have a small cost and have an encumbrance of 0 or 1.
  • Hidden Storage (Rank 1): Artie has a hidden storage compartment in his European Satchel that holds items with total Encumbrance of 1.
  • Know Somebody (Rank 1): Once per Issue, when attempting to purchase a legally available item, Artie may use and Incidental to reduce its Rarity by 1.
  • Prior Service (National Taxi Work's Alliance): Artie was formerly a member of the national union of taxi drivers. Artie gains Drive as a Career Skill and in addition, once per Issue, Artie may collect a small favor from any other member of the organization, even if they do not currently him any favors.
  • Redundant Systems: Once per Issue, Artie use a Panel to take a Redundant Systems action; make an Easy (Difficulty-die.png) Mechanics check to harvest components from a functioning device to repair a broken one without breaking the first device.

Powers

Enchanted Mail Order Items (Mystic/Tech)

Artie's strange abilities are granted from a collection of 'classic' gimmick item's once available to order from comic books and pulp magazines. Left behind in his cab by a odd-ball fair, after driving the weirdo to the Newark Airport.
