The Split

A surge of atomic energy that either strengthens the Scout or vents radiation into the world.

Here it is, friends, the heart of the whole business. A Split is a momentary surge of atomic energy, and it goes one of two ways.

  • Uplift: the surge strengthens the Scout.
  • Fallout: the surge vents radiation into the world around them.

At the kitchen table, a Split happens when a skill die lands on its highest face. Try it yourself in the Handbook.
