Advancement

PCs who have finished a session can increase their level by 1 if they wish so. Level can be increased even if the request ends in failure or early withdrawal. Whether level is increased or not, it is fine to undergo "Expend Credits to Purchase" and "Gain Contact" in accord to the result of the session. With an increased level, PC not only has an advantage in Checks in combat, the following steps will be taken as well.

=Gaining Power= Choose 1 Power from "Power Systems" determined by Origin and Adept and obtain it. This Power can be used from the next session on.

=Increase of Loan Limit= The maximum loan a PC can take is [Level × 100] Credits. It means one can take an additional loan of 100 Credits However, this increase is meaningless if one already have loan above the new limit due to "Side Income (P. 120)" alike. Moreover, there is no need to borrow recklessly.

=Increase of Maintenance Expense= Levelling up is not a completely good thing. Maintenance of PC includes [level × 10]. As such, maintenance cost will also increase by 10 Credits.

=Gaining Weapon= By spending 50 Credits, 1 additional weapon can be obtained. If there are spare Credits, it is fine to add customisations at the same time.

=Rebuild= If there are elements in the PC data that does not feel enjoyable after using, this is the time to adjust it. With GM permission, it is fine to change Origin, Adept, and initial Power. In such case, if Power already obtained comes from Power System no longer obtainable, that Power can be exchanged for another Power that can be obtained. It is also fine to exchange Power already obtained with another Power from obtainable Power Systems. Weapon can also be changed to other weapon. However, customisations obtained will be lost with no refund of Credits spent. Wares can be exchanged for other Wares of the same price.
