Players may prepare a list of situations during the character creation process in which their characters have had previous experience. These are called exploits. If the character should find himself in one of these situations, he gains the use of extra experience points. Exploits should fit logically with a character’s background.
The maximum number of exploits which may be chosen for each character is limited by the reality level chosen for the game.

For example, Lonnie has been playing a lot of poker lately. His most appropriate ability for gambling is awareness (or could also be influence if he bluffs a lot), which has a rating of +1. Therefore, he receives 3 experience points which can be used whenever he plays poker.
