Origin Creation Rules

Origins are constructed from options that cost a varying number of Design Points. When tallied, a Talent or a Specialty must have a cost of no more than 7 points, and certainly no less than 6 points (though an under-costed Origin is generally undesirable).

Sometimes you will create an Origin that has more than 7 points of benefits. These can be counted by options that have a negative Construction Point cost, such as penalties to disposition or action dice.

On the other hand, you may wish to base the ability to gain a Talent or Specialty on a choice that has already been made, such as Allegiance or Interests. A requirement has no Construction Point cost associated with it.
