Old Friend

You've been around enough, and know so many people, that you practically trip over old friends and acquaintances. Once per session, whenever you meet a new NPC, you may spend a Hero Die to move that NPC's attitude up one step for the purpose of Persuasion. For each additional rank you have in this feat, you may spend an additional Hero Die to improve the NPC's attitude by one additional rank.
The GM may veto any expenditure of Hero Dice for this feat if it is not appropriate for the game (such as trying to make an NPC who is supposed to be unknown and mysterious into an Old Friend). GMs who use GM Fiat in this way are encouraged to give players an additional Hero Die for the trouble, and players with this feat are encouraged to only use the feat when appropriate, and not go fishing for friends with every NPC he or she meets.
