Spending Experience
To progress your character in power, you must spend Experiance Points, more commonly known as Exp. Exp is gained as you play Meat Space in various ways.
You may Spend any Exp you have during the end of any Scene, although each player has a responsibility to do so in a timely and hopefully diegetic manner.
The Costs for each form of progression are listed in the table below
| Type | Cost |
|---|---|
| Skill | Costs 2 Exp per Rank you wish to obtain. E.g. if you wish to gain the 4th Rank of Technological, it would cost 8 Exp. |
| Ability | Costs 2 Exp per Rank of Ability you wish to obtain. In addition, you must have the corresponding Ranks in the relevant Mastery. E.g. If you wish to gain the Meat Ability, Bull Rush which is Rank 2, it would cost 4 Exp and you would need at least 2 Ranks in the Meat Mastery |
| New Mastery | Costs X+1 Exp, where X equals the number of unique Masteries with at least 1 rank. When a new Mastery Rank is gained, you may also gain a corresponding Ability of equal Rank. E.g. If you obtained the first Rank in the Cultivation Mastery, while having at least 1 Rank in Bones, Animism, Industrial and Stealth, then it would cost 5 Exp, since X would be equal to 4. |
| Existing Mastery | Costs 3 Exp per Rank you wish to obtain. When a new Mastery Rank is gained, you also gain an Ability of equal or lower Rank. E.g. if you wish to gain the 5th Rank of Arcana, it would cost 15 Exp and you would gain an Arcana Action or Trait of 5th Rank or lower. |
