Whatever your origin, when you arrive in a town, you’re never lost: you know where to go to find safe lodging, good food, or discreet hiding places.

Way Around Town

Intellect  Your city is your ally. While in your hometown or a settlement that you've spent at least one Downtime in, you can take -1 awareness after you make any Maneuver roll and describe how a familiar feature of the settlement helps you maneuver. The Guide awards you a special advantage die, ranging in size from a d4 to a d8, based on how evocative your description is. Roll this die along with your Maneuver die and use the higher result. You can use this ability after your Maneuver roll, potentially turning a failure into a success.
