| Blood PurityAll Gypsies begin with one point of Blood Purity. Additional points of Blood Purity can only be gained by spending Freebie points. Blood Purity reflects the connection a Gypsy has to the Blood of Daenna flowing in her veins. Although a “full-Blooded” Gypsy is more likely to have a high Blood Purity score, it is entirely possible that even a Gypsy with only one parent of partial Gypsy lineage could have as high a score

| Magic There are four different types of magical skills peculiar to the Rom. Each one of these is a unique skill, although some powerful mages have more than one gift at their disposal. No Gypsy can acquire any magical skill at a rating greater than that of her Blood Purity score. The magic of the Rom is explored in detail in Chapter four, but the four types of magic are described briefly here. Evil Eye: This ability allows the Gypsy to place or remove curses upon victims of her choosing. The Sight: Gypsies with the Sight can gain insights into both the recent past and possibilities of the future. Mediumship: The ability to contact the spirit world. Draba: The ability to create magical devices such as charms, potions and amulets.

| Instinct
You always seem to know when to look over your shoulder and when not to take that shortcut through the dark alley. When you get a bad feeling about someone, it really means something, and you sometimes notice things that don’t seem important at the time, but end up being critical

| Luck
Ever since you were small you’ve been able to get out of even the roughest scrapes. It seems like whenever you really need it, the dice roll in your favor, the man looks the other way, or she believes your excuse about that flat tire.

| Truth of the RomYou are an extremely sincere person. You always tell the truth no matter who you are talking to - even when you speak to a gaje. You seem to be able to convince even yourself of the real truth of any situation, regardless of those seeming “facts” others speak of. This ability enables a Rom to lie truthfully. In other words, the character is such a good liar that he even believes himself (while telling the “truth”).

| Zapaderin
You have learned the rhythmic motions, intricate patterns and fluid gestures of the mesmerizing dance known as Zapaderin. When you perform this dance, all those not of the Blood soon come under the spell of your grace, the trance of the rhythm. This mesmerizing dance requires constant practice and discipline, which you have in full measure
