The Old World - Grim and Perilous Beta v3

Reading and Writing
Reading and writing are rare skills in the Old
World's society. If your character's starting career
is a Craftsman, Noble or Scholar, you may consider
they have those skills. However, other careers need
to purchase at least one rank in Knowledge (Academic)
skill to be able to read and write.
on their next turn after having become incapacitate
due to exceeding their wound threshold,
a Player Character may make a Hard (kkk)
Table 3-1: Skills for The Old World Setting
Discipline or Resilience check as an out of turn
incidental even though an incapacitated character
is normally unable to perform actions. If
the check is successful, the character can take
their actions as usual until the end of the encounter.
However, for every five wounds the
character suffers in this state, they also suffer
a Critical Injury and if they exceed double their
wounds threshold they instantly die (as if the
Dead Critical Injury result was rolled on Table
I.6-10: Critical Injury Result, page 115 of the
Genesys Core Rulebook).
