 ======Supplementary Rules======
+=====Refunding XP=====
+  * If a skill is ever changed after you have bought it, you may choose to un-buy it, which refunds the XP.
+  * If this would cause you to lose the pre-requisites for later skills, you may un-buy those skills too.
+=====Item Attunement=====
+  * You can only attune to one set of equipment (e.g. a loadout) at the start of each encounter.
+  * You can only gain the benefit of instillments in items you have attuned to.
+=====Throwing Dagger Sets=====
+  * A set of throwing daggers is six daggers, preferentially of the same type, so we can easily track which daggers are whose and reduce the chance of them going missing.
+=====Carrying Multiple Weapons=====
+  * It is possible to carry multiple weapons (e.g. weapon(s) in addition to the one(s) you are carrying), but these must be physrepped.
+  * When picking weapons at the start of the LARP, and you want to take multiple weapons, you should give due consideration to a) make sure that each player gets a pick before you take any additional weapons; b) don't deprive the monster party of all of a particular type of weapon unless the GM says this is OK.
+=====Weapon Categories=====
+  * The LARPOs have the final say in which weapons and shields belong to which categories.
+=====WOUND calls and weapon loadouts=====
+  * If you are carrying a 2h weapon, and take a WOUND in one arm, you may defend yourself by moving the 2h weapon safely in the other hand, but you may not attack with it.
+  * If you are carrying a single 1h weapon, and take a WOUND in that arm, you may take that weapon with your un-WOUNDed arm and fight with it as normal.
+=====Alternative Psychic Combat (Experimental)=====
+  * Instead of fighting a one-on-one psychic combat, you may choose to play rock paper scissors:
+      * Every time you lose a round of RPS, lose a psyche hit.
+      * The first to 0 loses.
 =====Leaving an Encounter======

-=====Afflictions=====
+=====Retirement=====
+  * Retirement will permanently render a character unplayable.
+  * Any character may retire by using any skill they know if they can think of an appropriately dramatic use;
+  * Consult a GM or call a TIME FREEZE as necessary.
+  * Certain skills within the game grant specific retirement abilities.
+  * Retirement is intended to be the opportunity to end your character's story in a dramatic fashion on your own terms.
+=====Fluff Freeforms=====
+  * Animus encourages the running of multiple fluff freeforms.
+  * The LARPO should approve the time/date of the freeform.
+  * The runner/host gets 1XP, once they have submitted a writeup.
+  * The writeup should at minimum contain a list of bulletpointed facts.
+  * PCs cannot use per adventure abilities or do anything which would require a GM call.
+  * These freeforms do not trigger downtime actions or end-of-adventure abilities.
+=====Herald of Echoes=====
+  * Noncombatants may elect to play a Herald of Echoes, who are part of the player party.
+  * Heralds are visible and audible, but intangible.
+  * Heralds should keep two fingers in the air during combat to indicate they are not valid targets.
+  * Heralds cannot purchase skills, have no hits, cannot wield weapons and may call VOID to any effect.
+  * Heralds should not be counted by GMs when determining player:monster ratios.
+  * Herald players will gain a special brief and a roleplaying effect.

+  * Level 1: +1 FIGHT ON!, 1 REPEL,  1 ROLEPLAY INSPIRATION or ROLEPLAY DETERMINATION
+  * Level 2: +1 FIGHT ON!, 1 REPEL

-  * Afflictions are be characterized by three things:
-     * The effect they have
-     * How difficult they are to treat or remove
-     * What sorts of ability can treat them.
-  * When a GM comes up with a curse of affliction they should also assign it a potency and a type.
-  * Skills will state which levels of potency they can cure.
-  * The two main types of affliction are those of the body and those of the soul.
-  * There are four potencies: feeble, strong, severe and chronic.
-  * Afflictions of feeble potency are generally easy to remove for those who have the right skills.
-      * This does not mean that their effects are small -  just that they are easy to cure.
-  * Conversely, chronic afflictions are effects which are, to all intents and purposes, permanent.
-      * Removing chronic afflictions is more the realm of a character request LARP than something which a skill can achieve.
-  * Certain abilities or effects reduce or increase the potency of afflictions.
-  * The potency of an affliction can only ever go up or down one rank from its original potency.
