===== Set =====
[[:Mechanic:General:Set]] is a mechanical term. It is the process of replacing a [[:Mechanic:Roll:Dice Pool:Bonus]], [[:Mechanic:Rating]], or other value with a specified amount, rather than increasing or decreasing it. When a value is [[:Mechanic:General:Set]], its previous value is replaced by the new value.\\
\\
If a value is [[:Mechanic:General:Set]] multiple times, only one [[:Mechanic:General:Set]] applies. You choose which.\\
\\
If a value would be increased or decreased,  apply those changes after it is [[:Mechanic:General:Set]].\\

**Example #2**: Your [[:Character]] has both a [[:Item:Gear:Rapid Flickerfield Brace]] and a [[:Item:Gear:Fortress Flickerfield Brace]] [[:Item:General:Equipped]]. The [[:Item:Gear:Rapid Flickerfield Brace]] [[:Mechanic:General:Set|Set's]] your [[:Mechanic:Rating:Barrier]] to 5, while the [[:Item:Gear:Fortress Flickerfield Brace]] [[:Mechanic:General:Set|Set's]] your [[:Mechanic:Rating:Barrier]] to 20. You may choose for your Barrier to have a maximum for 5 or 20, but not both.

**Example #3**: Your [[:Character:Race:D'jinn]] [[:Character]] has a [[:Item:Gear:Rapid Flickerfield Brace]] [[:Item:General:Equipped]]. You have the [[:Character:Race:D'jinn]] [[:Ability]] [[:Character:Race:D'jinn#Electromagnetic Form]], which increases your maximum [[:Mechanic:Rating:Barrier]] by 5. Thus, the [[:Item:Gear:Rapid Flickerfield Brace]] [[:Mechanic:General:Set|Set's]] your [[:Mechanic:Rating:Barrier]] to 5, then the [[:Character:Race:D'jinn#Electromagnetic Form]] [[:Ability]] increases it by an additional 5, for a new maximum of 10.
