    Drawbacks and Additional CP

    • +1000cp Jump Stipend
      • Points just for visiting.
    • +50cp PPPPP
      • Anything that isn’t actually inside your Warehouse at Jump’s end is left behind for good. Chain Only. You gain a one time bonus of +10 Warehouse Points. If you have properties that follow you, they count as Warehouse for purposes of this drawback, as does anything you’re actually carrying or wearing. Pronounced P5. If you don’t know what it means, you are unworthy. This specifically does include CP backed items. The value of this is increased to +100 if you also have Semper Preparatus.
    • +200cp - Earlier Beginning
      • You begin each jump at age four, or the nearest equivalent, and remain until the jump’s normal start date. Your memories, personality, and experiences are fully intact from the beginning. Local powers mature naturally as you grow. Out-of-jump powers return at 2% per year until puberty and 12% per year thereafter, scaled proportionally for species with different maturation rates. Power returns qualitatively rather than absolutely. You retain only two years of plot armor against random childhood misfortune. Imported Companions receive the same effects. Your warehouse and any unimported Companions become available at the jump’s normal start date.
    • +200cp - One Life to Lose
      • Death is no longer a revolving door for your Companions. If a Companion dies beyond the point of medical recovery, they are removed from the Chain and returned to their reality of origin, though Undead Companions use an equivalent definition of death. Once lost, a Companion may only be reclaimed through Return, a continuity toggle in a later Jump to the same setting during that Companion’s lifespan, or by earning your Spark. Respawn mechanics, resurrection powers, 1-Ups, recovery items, and similar abilities cannot restore a dead Companion. Powers, Perks, and Items may still prevent death before it occurs. To prevent arbitrary losses, Companions will not die from random accidents, casual illness, age-related complications, or similarly insignificant causes. Only deliberate action or major plot-level threats can kill them. Each Companion gains an additional 600 CP at the beginning of every Jump while this Drawback is active, while the Jumper gains +200 CP. Companions who are not imported cannot receive Origins, freebies, or other import benefits.
