Name	Trapper
Cost	6 points
Prerequisites	Ranger
Key Words	Archetype / Scout / Twice per day
Description	Twice per day, with suitable phys reps, the character can set a trap such as a pit, snare, log trap, etc. Larger or more complex traps may require two (or three!) “uses” of this skill. A list of common field traps can be found on the Locks and Traps page. A character with this skill may research other traps. Traps function only as long as the trapper or a referee remain in attendance. Traps set on the battlefield must be coordinated with the Battle Team ahead of time and set during a scouting slot. Note that this skill grants knowledge of field traps, such as pit traps and snares, while the Mechanician skill covers mechanical traps, such as poison needles and blades. A mechanician can design and build mechanical components that a trapper can then incorporate into field traps for greater effect. Special: With a set of superior or higher quality trapper’s tools, this skill can be used three times per day rather than twice.
Progression	None
