Pathway Tokens Copy link
Pathway Tokens represent a Hero’s training, expertise, and preferred methods of overcoming challenges. Each Pathway—Influence, Prowess, Skill, Lore, Threads, Divinity, and Devotion—provides tokens that contribute Control, Impulse, or Versatility during Performance Checks. Most Pathway Tokens provide a base value when drawn, but Heroes who achieve Mastery or Exemplar status within a Pathway gain enhanced versions of those symbols. A matching Master Pathway Token increases from its normal value to 3 of its type, while a matching Exemplar Pathway Token increases to 4 of its type. If the token does not match the Pathway being used, it provides its normal base value instead. Versatility-based Pathway Tokens follow their own progression, increasing from 2 Versatility at Master to 3 Versatility at Exemplar. These tokens reward specialization while still allowing Heroes to contribute outside their primary disciplines, creating meaningful distinctions between trained competence and true mastery.
