-===== Can GM Invoke a Rule? =====+The player pays a price, but not their character. By drawing a [[Gears and Wheels#Penalty|Penalty]] the GM will amass some tokens that are bad for the characters. When that comes into play, who knows. 
 +===== Can the GM Invoke a Rule? =====
  
 +Yes. The GM can Invoke a rule to just flat out say: This is how things go.

The ASI are pretty much invincible from their very intangible high seat above it all. It is almost impossible to even hurt them in any capacity. While their interfaces are very powerful, such lofty powers do not apply to them. A player can invoke this rule to cut any agent of an ASI down to size.
