     == Optional Rule: Roles
-    Instead of the menagerie of skills you may use roles. Each of the five roles -- #smallcaps[Scholar], #smallcaps[Scoundrel], #smallcaps[Scout], #smallcaps[Soldier], and #smallcaps[Speaker] -- represents a thematic grouping of training, skill, and experience. Your largest-rated role is usually how you best contribute to a group, whereas for smaller-rated roles, you're usually better off relying on more proficient allies.

   === Roles And Specialties
-  Specialties are no different when used with roles. For example, you might use #smallcaps[Soldier] to display your general prowess with weapons, but you might also have a specialty that you add when using certain types of weapons, such as #smallcaps[Swordplay] #spec_c.d6, #smallcaps[Shotguns] #spec_c.d6, or #smallcaps[Plasma Rifles] #spec_c.d8. When you follow a trail through a dense forest, your dice pool might not only include #smallcaps[Scout] but also an extra die for your #smallcaps[Tracking] specialty.

   === Creating An Extra
-  Extras need only a single die with a flavorful trait attached to them. That trait does not need to be equivalent to the PCs. Something as simple as #smallcaps[Hired Assassin] #spec_c.d10 or #smallcaps[Cut-Rate Thief] #spec_c.d6 works just fine. If you like, add another trait during play as things progress; you can upgrade any extra to a driven STC this way. If the extra is part of a character file, it might already have a die rating, so you can use that in a pinch.
