- counter and follow-up dynamics — Dodge, counter-attacks, and follow-up actions that can chain into extended damage.
- dice pools and conviction — Combat and spell effects rely on rolling colored dice with conviction checks and modifiers.
- loot decks and relics — Post-combat rewards that provide items, gear, or other benefits; unique weaponized relics.
- special terrain and hazards — Pits, water spaces and other terrain features requiring agility or alternative movement.
- sphere of influence — A character-defined area where buffs, healing, and enhanced actions apply.
- stamina and energy tokens — Resources spent to move, attack, or activate abilities; managing them is key to success.
