 *'''Take the Clock:''' When conditions allow for subsequent attempts at a failed check, rather than re-rolling, one may use the Time Spent mechanics, as written, to boost the already-rolled result until available time is spent or the result becomes a success.<br>''Example: Check missed by 1 becomes a success after taking 2x time. Obviously, a failure by more than 5 can't benefit fully from this rule.''
 *'''Animals:''' I will be using the animal stats from [http://panoptesv.com/RPGs/animalia/animalia.html this site], rather than the Basic Set—a little more well-thought-out, IMO.
