Inspiration represents your heroism, determination, desires or even most villainous intent. It takes the form of a special pool of points given as a reward for going above and beyond in-game.
When used correctly it allows you to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, forge times of legend, survive the impossible or even just assure a funny moment.
How to Get It
Using the standard rules of this world each player in attendance gains one point at the start of each session.
Aside from this extra points can be given out at your GM's discretion. While every GM will have their own preferences, commonly extra points can be earned for things such as excellent role-play or solving optional challenges.
However, rumor has it that there are a few ways to guarantee a flow of extra inspiration. But if this is true you will have to find it.
How to Use It
1 Point
Re-Roll with Advantage
Re-roll your most recent d20 roll with advantage, even if you previously had disadvantage on this role.
Quick Reaction
Gain an extra reaction. This expires as soon as you use it or at the start of your next turn.
2 Points
Critical Roll
Guarantee a critical roll on any d20 roll. This must be announced before the roll is made.
Extra Bonus Action
Gain an extra bonus action. This expires as soon as you use it or at the start of your next turn.
Scaling
Cheat Death
Starting at a cost of 4 inspiration points, survive one instance where you would otherwise have died. Using this ability does not restore any hitpoints but does fully stabilise your character. Every time you use this option the cost of its use goes up by one point.
