Powers Outside your Chosen Disciplines

You character Class will either allow you to choose Disciplines from a specified list, or grant you access to specific disciplines. When choosing powers, however, you may take any power for which you meet the prerequisites and are not limited to choosing powers from your chosen disciplines. The only exception is that you cannot choose or utilize powers from a Discipline that is Prohibited, as results from certain Talents (such as the Specialist Wizard).

When you utilize a power outside your chosen disciplines, it is subject to a 50% increase in Stamina and Resolve cost. This includes the cost of any augments or special actions granted by the power (augment cost should be added to the base cost of the power before determining 50% adjustment). The 50% increase also applies to Burn costs, which are considered separately from spend costs. For example, if you have a power that costs 3 Stamina and 1 Stamina Burn, you must increase the cost to 5 Stamina and 2 Stamina Burn if from outside your chosen disciplines. Karma costs of powers from outside your chosen Disciplines, however, are not increased.
