UNIQUE FEATS
Financial Insurance
It's good to know that you have reserved some funds in case you made a bad business deal. Whenever you would make a Wealth test, you may choose to have -X as a static penalty, where X is any number up to twice your level. If you would roll for Wealth Strain afterwards, reduce the result by half this number, rounded down.
Mammonite
Normally, money is used to buy weapons, but as a last-ditch resort you can use money itself as the weapon. Once per scene, you can unleash your accumulated wealth (somehow) as a Full Action melee or ranged attack using the appropriate skill (except Brawling). You are always proficient with this attack and make a Wealth Test as the damage roll. As a melee attack, it gains Momentum. As a ranged attack, its range is 10m and gains Disorienting and Halting.
Premium Leasing
You may purchase temporary background dots with a Wealth Test of TN 10 plus 5 for every background dot gained this way. These temporary dots take effect tomorrow and are lost after two days have passed. You cannot take dots in Artifact and Wealth this way, and cannot be used while you already have temporary background dots.
Priority Service
You don't care how much it costs, you want your purchase ASAP. Whenever you succeed at an Acquisition check, you may spend a Hero Point to have the item arrive immediately. Roll for Wealth Strain afterwards with a +1 for every step the item's waiting time is reduced by, to a maximum of +6.
OTHER HOMEBREW FEATS
Ascended Lawmagic (Lawyer)
You automatically know all laws, rules, and regulations that apply to the situation you are in.
Black Credit Card (Celebrity)
Increase the TN at which you automatically succeed Wealth tests by 5.
Credit Card (Celebrity)
Automatically succeed acquisition tests with a TN of 10 or lower, do not roll for wealth strain on them.
Interruption (Provocateur)
You'll never shut up, not even if someone attacks you. Especially if someone attacks you. You may use the Refute social combat action in the place of a Parry or Dodge, increasing your Static Defense instead of your Mental Defense against the attack.
Telepresence (Supreme Commander)
Through the use of communication devices like messenger birds, semaphore flags, or micro-beads; you can use Aid Another on faraway allies despite not being present. All that is necessary is some amount of two-way communication.
Things to Consider (Remodeler)
You may use the free raises from Foresight on any test, not just an Intelligence test.
Time is Money (Remodeler)
You wisely remember that if you don't have the time to do the project right, hire professionals who will. Once per session, you can spend a Hero Point to replace a single Test with a Wealth Test.
Well Connected (Maid)
Maids have been to many places and spoken to many people. You may spend a Hero point to declare that you know someone, however improbable that is. This will not instantly make them an ally...however they might be willing to talk or give up some non-sensitive information.
