Animal Tricks

The Tricks 2025 system allows players to train their companions with specialized tricks by spending Downtime Tokens (DT) and either 300 GP or 300 Crafting Points (CP). Players select a minimum number of tricks at each rank, unlocking new tactical, practical, and flavorful abilities as they progress.

Early tricks focus on basic survival skills, scouting, simple item delivery, and communication. As players advance, companions gain more powerful abilities like enhancing travel, stealth, foraging, navigation, and creating diversions. Higher ranks allow companions to stabilize allies, speed up travel, hide valuables, and assist in challenging terrain.

At the top tier, companions can deliver healing potions, bypass difficult environments, find hidden sanctuaries, and track enemies across wild or obscured trails. This system makes companions vital allies, enhancing both exploration and tactical play in meaningful ways.
