 It is hard to kill any of the humankind, but this is the closest they come. If they are both drained and harmed enough, they will bottom out. At this point, while not actually dead, they are very close and will only return if [[18K80#Specter]] restores them. It is hard to kill any of the humankind, but this is the closest they come.

   * **Harm**: This is injury. When it overflows, the individual is gravely injured and falls unconscious. They will regenerate fully in an hour, and awake with all their Harm erased and take 1d8 Drain. If this overflows their Drain, they [[#Bottom Out]].

 When your human engages in endeavors that lead towards the same unique goal, they are considered Successive Actions. For example, if you are trying to unlock a machine energized vault door, and you fail on the first attempt. The GM asks if you are willing to abandon the door or want to continue, warning you that you'll take a Snag if you choose the latter. You accept the Snag, in this case the GM says you have alerted the nearby security drones and they are closing in on you ([[#Snag|indirect Snag]]). But you can now try again, and this action is considered Successive.  When your human engages in endeavors that lead towards the same unique goal, they are considered Successive Actions.
