FINESSE
Introduction
This Dominion defines the prowess of Gods renowned for their speed, agility, and precision, elevating mortal action to feats of Legend. It encompasses the impossible swiftness of fleet-footed deities, and miraculous feats of grace and agility.
Innate Power
So long as you continue to move towards a destination, you walk, run, or leap with effortless grace. Any surfaces solid or liquid hold your weight as if you weighed no more than a feather, and you may effortlessly scale or descend vertical surfaces without a need for a handhold.
Discovery
In addition to the automatic successes FINESSE grants, it also increases the distance one can cover in a single action. The first dot adds one extra yard per Move action, the second adds two, and the third adds four. Double that is added for a Dash action.
(See pp. 192 and 191 of Chapter Seven for Move and Dash actions.)
An Avatar’s Finesse also adds a like amount directly to his initiative. The first dot adds one to his , the second dot adds two, and the third dot adds four.
