***Blank Out: Your Soul is violently burnt out, yet somehow you still live. You gain the Blank Talent. If you fail to resist a Corruption Fortitude/Discipline Test you gain 1 additional Corruption.

(Took inspiration from the Random Talents table)

-some don't clearly fit either way, but I wanted to evenly split the options on each side.

How can we make divinations more impactful for a current character? Other than as a hopeful boost to the next character, it seems that it isn't relevant for most play sessions. Not counting that to even benefit from the XP boost might require a caveat from the GM.

3e: If your Character’s death reflects their Divination, your next character begins play with bonus XP equal to half of the deceased character’s total XP.

2e & 1e: A mix of stat or skill tilts, table roll adjustments, & change yer Faaayyt.

Personally I like something that would affect a random roll table. Preferably with a +/- tit

What thoughts have ye?

What changes would you make to the base abhuman strains stats to show influence from different home-worlds?

For example Only War, Shield of Humanity says "Adeptus Administratum classifies seven distinct types of Ogryn"

So maybe an Ogryn from a Highborn house has better Fellowship to reflect being the assigned companion/bodyguard of a noble scion?

In exchange for less Toughness from living as essentially a pampered pet.

(Now I'm imagining Ogryn being gene modified by nobles to fit social trends, like mini Ogryn breed that's about 7ft tall or 2-2.2m)

I know that sometimes psychic awakenings can happen. But can the same happen for becoming a Blank?
