Soldier

As intimidating and impressive as the supernaturally or high-technology-powered ORPHEUS agents are, the vast majority of the real work gets done by professional soldiers, trained in combat, espionage, logistics, and every nuance of the modern, secret war perpetually fought in the shadowed spaces of the world.
== Mechanic: Training Discipline ==
When using downtime for Intensive Training or balanced Training/Self Care, the Soldier gains 5 + (Character Level /2, min 1) additional Temporary combat Strain, and the limit for Temporary combat Strain gained is 20 + (Character Level x2), rather than the normal 5 + (Character Level
x2). This strain cannot be used to buy down damage or the Rushed Condition.
== Abilities ==
=== Combat Tactician ===
Ceaseless training and drills make brilliant split-second tactical decision-making second nature to the Soldier.
=== Field Experience ===
There is no substitute for time spent in the field. Soldiers with enough experience in battle develop an almost supernatural sense of the ebb and flow of dangerous situations, predicting opponents’ moves on a subconscious level.
=== Field Strategist ===
It’s one thing to have a nuanced understanding of the tactical opportunities presented in battle. It’s another thing entirely to be able to clearly relay that information to others and to command their trust as a field officer. Those Soldiers gifted in leadership and squad-level strategy can shift the balance of any conflict toward their side.
=== Firearms Training ===
The skill ceiling for use of firearms in combat is high, indeed. Hand-eye coordination drills, quick-thinking exercises, and arduous practice can make the gun an extension of the Soldier’s body.
=== Focus, Commitment, Sheer Will ===
Just as the body can be trained to endure, and excel in, combat situations, the mind and
emotions can be trained to shake off the harrowing impacts of violence; a key aptitude for the effective Soldier.
=== Intelligence Training ===
Years of experience and study make the Soldier a force to be reckoned with when it comes to logistics and planning for espionage operations.
