Talents
Talents are unique things your character can do. You can buy talents at their listed experience cost if you meet their prerequisites. You cannot take a talent multiple times unless it otherwise specifies, if you do take it multiple times it is best represented by adding a number to the end of it on your character sheet so you remember how many times you have taken it already. Here in the talents section prerequisites are expressed based on base attribute scores, not modifier.
