'Unofficial' Advantages

*  The following seem suited to '7th Sea', but have not appeared so far:

* ACCURATE ______ (3 points):  The Character has an.affinity for using one specific type of personal missile weapon - eg. crossbow, pistol, thrown knife, thrown rock, thrown hatchet, longarm, blowgun, etc..  He gets one Free Raise for all ranged attacks made with that weapon.

  This Advantage does not provide any benefit in melee combat.  It cannot be used with larger non-personal weapons, such as swivel guns or cannons.

* CAST-IRON STOMACH (1 point):  Your character never gets seasick.  Ever.  In conditions that may have everybody else on the ship hanging over the rail praying for death, he will be completely unaffected.  It may be due to ancestry, or years of nautical experience, or something else entirely.

  No protection is provided against other illnesses, injury or drowning.

* PART-BLOODED (10 Points):  The Character has a mere trace of sorcerous ancestry.  He gets one Sorcery Knack at Rank 1, which can never be advanced beyond Rank 3.

  Care must be taken when selecting the sorcery school and knack, noting that certain feats of magic - such as Porte gates and Pyeryem transformations - require having at least two specific Knacks.  Also, Characters cannot take two Part-Blooded advantages to give themselves a lesser form of Twice-Blooded.

* SENSE OF DIRECTION (10 Points):  Regardless of the situation, your Character always has a general idea of which direction and distance certain fixed (as in immobile) locations lie in.  For instance, he could be lost in a thick fog, and still find the way back to his front door.  He could be in a ship that has spent months at sea, and still be able to say his home is "that way".  The sense is not precise enough to use for pinpoint navigation.  Nor will it provide warning of, or guidance around, any hazards or obstacles along the way - or of anything about the location in question.

  Characters can "memorize" a number of locations equal to their Wits, but they must be physically visited by that Character in order to do so.  Having a location pointed out on a map or seeing it from afar will not suffice, the Character must actually go there.  These locations can be as general as 'Inismore' or 'Freiberg', or as specific as 'Main Closet, Guest Bedroom #12, Second Floor, Chateau d'Soleil, Charouse'.  A location can be forgotten in order to memorize a new location, but a Character wishing to "reacquire" a given location must revisit it to do so.  Also, one place of special personal significance is permanently memorized (usually one's birthplace or childhood home), and cannot be forgotten.

  Finally, Direction Sense becomes erratic (and may even cease to work) under certain circumstances. This includes anything involving close proximity to Matushka, the Sidhe, Porte Gates, major Syrneth structures, some Syrneth artifacts, the Seventh Sea, the Porte realm, the Corridors of Flame, the Thrice-Tenth Kingdom, the Azov Forest, Lake Vigil, Cabora, the Dark Paths, or the Black Forest.
