Basic Rules
Knight Errant was conceived using a heavily-rewritten game system, now known as G.O.W.
Under our system, all Player Characters get to buy a few Affinities appropriate to the game world. Here we list the Affinities applicable to the Britannic Isles.
Heroism
Ever notice that heroes seem to be playing by different rules than everybody else? They are! Special heroic characters, like knights, thegns, etc. can increase their skills and gain special powers by playing up their assigned roles. There are specific restrictions that must be obeyed to pay for these abilities.
"Shining Armor": Maintain your gear.
"Brand Name Promotion": It pays to advertise.
"Famous Face": Look cool, kick ass.
"Code of Conduct": Be good, kick ass.
"Holy Vow": Be pious, kick ass.
Pechtish Woad and Tatoos

Lucky Socks: Paint well, kick ass.
Medical Crutch: Art can save your life.
Who's Your Daddy: Kick ass, then kick more ass.
Revival Time: Kick ass, feel good.

The new basic Attributes, upon which Skills are based, are: Body
