Calling in one of Hebizuka's Favors is an ability that can be performed by a player character.

Use

Hebizuka's Favors are a flavorful name for an "edge" mechanic. The purpose of a Favor is to change an outcome that would normally be decided by rolling dice, typically in your favor.

• All characters can hold a maximum of 3 Favors and start with the maximum number.
• Certain traits can change the number of Favors you start with.
• If your character has less than their maximum number of Favors, they automatically regain 1 Favor on Daily Reset.

When to call in a Favor

You can call in (or "burn") a Favor to perform any of the following:

• Do-over: After making an attack check, reroll it completely (including any applicable multi-projectile checks, shrapnel checks, etc.). You can decide which string to keep.
• Mulligan: After making an attack check, change a single attack roll to a solid hit. Any multi-projectile checks, shrapnel checks, etc. do not change.
• Ninja step: Skip a Stealth Cover check and guarantee a success
• Retreat: Skip an Escape check to guarantee a success
• Hunter's call (Hunting skill): Reroll a meat harvest check
• Brass finder (Handloading skill): Skip the roll to find spent cases/hulls; the first 50 in the room are guaranteed. If less than 50 are in the room, they are all guaranteed.
• Strike the earth! (Mining skill): When mining ore patches, the current room gains a second ore patch. Use the same rarity as the first to generate.
• Silver tongue (Negotiating skill): Reroll a Negotiation check and keep the best result.
• Back to life (Repairing skill): Choose one:
  • Reroll a Zero Condition repair check and keep the best result
  • Double the effect of a standard repair
• Designated healer (Healing skill): Choose one:
  • Skip the success check when using a Rag to heal a wound
  • Gain +1 bonus HP to all limbs when using a FAK or FSK, on top of the existing skill bonus.
