	Skill specialisation is permanent, but not mandatory: You can retrain away the skill at any time, or simply choose not to fulfil an Incipience when you get it. They are not rewards from the refs for preferred “styles” of play - if you feel you have been doing something creative and we haven’t noticed, please reach out and let us know! Chances are we’ve just missed it.		Skill specialisation is permanent, but not mandatory: You can retrain away the skill at any time, or simply choose not to fulfil an Incipience when you get it.

	The reward for the bar’s [[Murder Mystery Nights]], the Copa de Cambio grants the drinker a single, one-word wish, which it fulfils according to its own mysterious whims. This will primarily affect the drinker’s physical and metaphysical attributes, rather than skills. While the effects in-character will be somewhat unpredictable, the refs will discuss the mechanical effects with the player involved, to make sure the results are both fun and balanced.

	An example result might be a wish for FIREARMS, leading the drinker’s arms to be permanently made of fire; if the player wants a primarily combat-based effect, they might be able to add FLAME to any call. By contrast, if they want an effect linked to (for example) astral projection, they might find that they can manipulate shapes in the flame to communicate with those in the waking world while they travel the Aether. (These examples are weaker than a typical result would be!)

	Binding others to you via [[Contract Negotiations\|Contracts]] is both specific to the signers of the contract, and can be a great way to specialise a character. (For example, a Devil contracted to serve as a bodyguard will have a major impact on how your character moves through the world.)

	Players can join cults, own buildings, start businesses, and otherwise interact with the wider world. This will mostly affect [[Downtime]], though major changes to the status quo in the game’s world may well be reflected in what goes on during events.

These will be presented as a card with a new version of that skill, as well as the conditions to unlock it. Once unlocked, that becomes the way that skill works for you from then on.
