 +===== Character Creation =====

 +=== Do free skill ranks from a Species make buying that skill more expensive? ===
 +
 +No. The free ranks of a skill granted by certain species, such as the [[ascendancy_vassal_species#​Sollen]]'​s free rank of Engineer and Extra Mods, do not make buying additional ranks of that skill cost more. The ranks granted by your Species are treated as "bonus ranks" after character point costs are determined.

 It is possible for a character to kill themselves, via delivering a LETHAL call to one of their own unprotected locations (a character can choose to be Unresisting to their own attacks if they wish). This will start their Death Count, during which it is still possible for other characters to save them. It is possible for a character to kill themselves, via delivering a LETHAL call to one of their own unprotected locations (a character can choose to be Unresisting to their own attacks if they wish).

 +=== Can I hear Calls In-Character?​ ===
 +
 +No. As described on the [[Calls & Effects]] page, Game Calls are out-of-character. They are not audible, and are only noticeable via their effects in-game - someone falling over, etc. Calls that come from an attack will be fairly obvious as to their source, but calls from special powers or psionics less so. Characters who are familiar with psionic powers might be able to spot the signs of them being used, such as a character being at the epicentre of a bunch of other characters suddenly succumbing to anger, or a character staring intently at another for about 30 seconds, but these are in-character inferences rather than reacting to an out-of-character Call.
