Stratagems
The use of Stratagems is optional in Wrath & Glory play. If using Stratagems, each character will begin with Tier+1 Wrath Points instead of
the normal 2 Wrath Points. Each Stratagem lists the number of Wrath Points that must be spent to use the Stratagem and each Stratagem may
only be used once per game session (unless noted otherwise). Wrath Points may be gained through normal game play.

Any NPC’s under a PC’s control may have Stratagems used for their benefit but these must be paid for with Glory. Stratagems can be used by
the GM for NPC Threats, but these are paid for by Ruin.

Each Stratagem will list any keyword restrictions after the cost that must be met in full for the Stratagem to apply. Unless noted otherwise,
Stratagem effects end at the end of that character or threats activation.

The following Stratagems are generic to any faction or race:
