Assets

Assets are advantages that your character gains during character creation, but can also be bought using advancement points during the course of the game provided it can be justified in character. Some assets gain you a step bonus in certain skills or attributes whereas others grant you new abilities or new ways to use your plot points. Assets can be either minor (and cost you 2 points) or major (and cost you 4 points). The table below lists all the available assets (including additional ones not printed in Serenity) and whether they can be major, minor or either.
