Front side character sheet
Aliana Hadar: Terran Colonial Mentalist Pathfinder Vocation Skills: Clairvoyance, Telepathy, Marksman, Athletics, Perception. Clairvoyant Survivalist: Aliana was born on Hadar IV where her parents were part of a Pathfinder planetary survey expedition. At five years old, her latent clairvoyant abilities awakened and gave her a horrifying vision of an impending disaster. She fled the expedition basecamp in terror, disappearing into the alien wilds. When Aliana finally returned home, she found everyone gone and the camp in shambles. She survived there alone for four months until she was rescued by a passing Vanguard starship. Aliana is now a Pathfinder Scout herself, following in her family’s footsteps. She takes on contracts with other outfits, bringing her unique combination of survival experience and potent telepathic potential. She hopes that, someday somewhere, she can find her family.

VOCATION TRAIT: SILVER TONGUE As long as you don’t take hostile action, most NPCs will be reluctant to harm you in any permanent way. All skill checks and reactions against your Social actions are difficult while you have SURGE. You gain WAKING whenever you prevent or end a hostile encounter via diplomacy.
VOCATION TRAIT: KILL STREAK You gain SURGE whenever one of your weapon attacks defeats a target. If you already had SURGE when this effect occurs, you get a bonus weapon attack instead. This effect can trigger up to 3 times in the same turn. The Physical Training and Shooting Range downtime activities are easier for you.
