Catch Your Breath

To reset all your skills to their original ratings, you can catch your breath . This is a brief respite in tension—finding shelter during a storm, taking cover in ruins, resting at a settlement. 
 Catching your breath can be done at any time, even during combat or crisis. 
 When you catch your breath, the GM looks at the scene and introduces a new complication for the group. The world doesn't wait while you rest. 
 Example Complications (GM picks or rolls on table in Section 5): 
 
 Bandits arrive, attracted by your campfire 
 The superstorm shifts course toward your position 
 A water cache you were counting on has been sabotaged 
 A psychic aberration manifests nearby 
 A geothermal vent in your shelter begins to destabilize 
 You're discovered by a hostile settlement patrol
