======Features======
||**Type:** General||**Action:** None (passive)||
||**Range:** Personal||**Duration:** Permanent (see description)||
||**Saving Throw:** None (see description)||**Cost:** 1 point per rank||
You have one or more minor features or effects that grant you an occasionally useful ability worth about 1 power point. This effect is essentially a version of the [[MMBenefit Benefit]] feat (see [[MMBenefit Benefit]], M&M, page 59) but a power rather than a virtue of skill, talent, or social background. For example, diplomatic immunity or wealth are Benefits; fur, the ability to mimic any sound, or a hidden compartment in your hollow leg, are Features.
It|s up to the GM what capabilities qualify as Features; generally if something has no real game effect, it|s just a descriptor. If it has an actual game system benefit, it may be a feature. There|s no need to define every possible feature a character may have down to the last detail.
====Sample Features====
Some examples of possible Features include the following:
- **Environmental Adaptation: **This feat may also be a Feature for some characters, depending on its descriptors and origin.
- **Insulating Fur: **You have a layer of fur that protects you from sunburn and cold, giving you [[MMImmunity immunity]] to those environments.
- **Internal Compartment: **You can carry a portion of your carrying capacity inside you body! You have a pouch or compartment of some sort, able to hold objects no larger than about one-fifth your own size and weighing no more than your light load.
- **Iron Stomach: **You can eat anything that|s not toxic without ill effects: spoiled or unpleasant food, for example. You get a +4 bonus on Survival checks involving feeding yourself.
- **Mimicry: **You can imitate almost any sound you|ve heard, giving you a +10 bonus to Bluff or Perform checks to convince others your mimicked sounds are real.
- **Special Effect: **You have some special effect, like a gust of wind at the right dramatic moment, or ideal spotlighting, or personal theme music. The GM may give you a +2 bonus for favorable circumstances when your special effect is likely to impress people or otherwise aid you.
- **Temporal Inertia: **You are somehow uniquely "anchored" in the space-time continuum, making you immune to changes in history. You recall the "true" version of historical events, even if no one else does.
=====Flaws=====
- **Duration: **Some Features may be sustained duration rather than permanent with no change in cost. This suits active Features a character has to use and maintain rather than having them as passive traits requiring no effort whatsoever.
