Ingenuity

Ingenuity is a resource available to players as a reward for good luck and clever plans.   Generating Ingenuity   Any time a player rolls a d20, they also roll a d10. On a 10, one point of Ingenuity in generated. If the d20 is a natural 20, any value on the d10 other than 1 generates a point of Ingenuity. Certain actions or discoveries as part of a case may also generate Ingenuity.   Individual vs Investigation   Ingenuity can be stored in an individual pool by the agent or can be spent to unlock Case File specific features on the Investigation Sheet. You can have a maximum number of Ingenuity saved equal to your proficiency modifier +1. You lose all Ingenuity in your individual pool when you rest by taking time or returning to base.   Uses of Ingenuity
