MRPG Facet List
Facets are little elements of your character that grant abilities or provide bonuses. Unless specifically flagged as a class Facet, assume any of these can be taken as free facet choices.

Free Facet Lists
At some point, this will contain a list of all facets That can be taken freely. The sections bellow will include details on all facets, some of which are granted only to specific races and classes.
Proficiency Facets
See Proficiencies. Taking one of these as a proficiency grants you access to anything that requires that proficiency; however you do not receive a bonus to it as you do a character Core proficiency.

Weapon Focus Facets
Rather than list all of these out I'm just going to explain how it works. Every weapon has a Supertype, Subtype, and Type. The Supertype is the basic proficiency. These facets give you extra bonuses for various specializations. Example:
- Weapon Focus: Swords - Grants a bonus to attack when using a sword. Prerequisites: Weapon proficiency: Bladed
- Weapon Focus: Longsword - Grants a bonus to attack when using a Longsword. Prerequisites: Weapon Focus: Swords.
- Weapon Finesse - Glancing Blows now deal weapon + damage in addition to their base damage. Prerequisites: Any Weapon Focus: Subtype facet. Anti-requisites: Weapon Strength.
- Weapon Strength - Weapons that would crit on 3 dice now crit on 2. Prerequisites: Any Weapon Focus: Subtype facet. Anti-requisites: Weapon Finesse.
Dice Facets
- Extra Strike - on your effect dice table, 3 now counts as a Strike.
