action:
- actioncategory: Basic
  actioncost_name: Free Action
  descr: You try to help your ally with a task. To use this reaction, you must first
    prepare to help, usually by using an action during your turn. You must explain
    to the GM exactly how you’re trying to help, and they determine whether you can
    Aid your ally.\n\nWhen you use your Aid reaction, attempt a skill check or attack
    roll of a type decided by the GM. The typical DC is 20, but the GM might adjust
    this DC for particularly hard or easy tasks. The GM can add any relevant traits
    to your preparatory action or to your Aid reaction depending on the situation,
    or even allow you to Aid checks other than skill checks and attack rolls.\n\n**Critical
    Success** You grant your ally a +2 circumstance bonus to,the triggering check.
    If you’re a master with the check you,attempted, the bonus is +3, and if you’re
    legendary, it’s +4.\n**Success** You grant your ally a +1 circumstance bonus to
    the triggering check.\n**Critical Failure** Your ally takes a 1 circumstance penalty
    to the triggering check.

  descr: You wait for the right moment to act. The rest of your turn doesn’t happen
    yet. Instead, you’re removed from the initiative order. You can return to the
    initiative order as a free action triggered by the end of any other creature’s
    turn. This permanently changes your initiative to the new position. You can’t
    use reactions until you return to the initiative order. If you Delay an entire
    round without returning to the initiative order, the actions from the Delayed
    turn are lost, your initiative doesn’t change, and your next turn occurs at your
    original position in the initiative order.\n\nWhen you Delay, any persistent damage
    or other negative effects that normally occur at the start or end of your turn
    occur immediately when you use the Delay action. Any beneficial effects that would
    end at any point during your turn also end. The GM might determine that other
    effects end when you Delay as well. Essentially, you can’t Delay to avoid negative
    consequences that would happen on your turn or to extend beneficial effects that
    would end on your turn.

    one creature, object, spell effect, hazard, or other impediment imposing any of
    those conditions on you. Attempt a check using your unarmed attack modifier against
    the DC of the effect. This is typically the Athletics DC of a creature grabbing
    you, the Thievery DC of a creature who tied you up, the spell DC for a spell effect,
    or the listed Escape DC of an object, hazard, or other impediment. You can attempt
    an Acrobatics or Athletics check instead of using your attack modifier if you
    choose (but this action still has the attack trait).\n\n**Critical Success** You
    get free and remove the grabbed, immobilized, and restrained conditions imposed
    by your chosen target. You can then Stride up to 5 feet.\n**Success** You get
    free and remove the grabbed, immobilized, and restrained conditions imposed by
    your chosen target.\n**Critical Failure** You don’t get free, and you can’t attempt
    to Escape again until your next turn.

    This process requires 1 or more Interact actions, usually taking the same amount
    of time it takes to don the item. Once you’ve Invested the Item, you benefit from
    its constant magical abilities as long as you meet its other requirements (for
    most invested items, the only other requirement is that you must be wearing the
    item). This investiture lasts until you remove the item.\n\n You can invest no
    more than 10 items per day. If you remove an invested item, it loses its investiture.
    The item still counts against your daily limit after it loses its investiture.
    You reset the limit during your daily preparations, at which point you Invest
    your Items anew. If you’re still wearing items you had invested the previous day,
    you can typically keep them invested on the new day, but they still count against
    your limit. '

    typically clear a 5-foot gap, or a 10-foot gap if your Speed is 30 feet or more).\n\nIf
    you Leap vertically, you can move up to 3 feet vertically and 5 feet horizontally
    onto an elevated surface.\n\nJumping a greater distance requires using the Athletics

    ends. If the trigger you designated occurs before the start of your next turn,
    you can use the chosen action as a reaction (provided you still meet the requirements
    to use it). You can’t Ready a free action that already has a trigger.\n\nIf you
    have a multiple attack penalty and your readied action is an attack action, your
    readied attack takes the multiple attack penalty you had at the time you used
    Ready. This is one of the few times the multiple attack penalty applies when it’s

    similar action. Unlike most manipulate actions, Release does not trigger reactions
    that can be triggered by actions with the manipulate trait (such as Attack of
    Opportunity).\n\nIf you want to prepare to Release something outside of your turn,

    creatures, choose an area you’re scanning. If precision is necessary, the GM can
    have you select a 30-foot cone or a 15-foot burst within line of sight. You might
    take a penalty if you choose an area that’s far away.\n\nIf you’re using Seek
    to search for objects (including secret doors and hazards), you search up to a
    10-foot square adjacent to you. The GM might determine you need to Seek as an
    activity, taking more actions or even minutes or hours if you’re searching a particularly
    cluttered area.\n\nThe GM attempts a single secret Perception check for you and
    compares the result to the Stealth DCs of any undetected or hidden creatures in
    the area or the DC to detect each object in the area (as determined by the GM
    or by someone Concealing the Object). A creature you detect might remain hidden,
    rather than becoming observed, if you’re using an imprecise sense or if an effect
    (such as invisibility) prevents the subject from being observed.\n\n**Critical
    Success** If you were searching for creatures, any undetected or hidden creature
    you critically succeeded against becomes observed by you. If you were searching
    for an object, you learn its location.\n**Success** If you were searching for
    creatures, any undetected creature you succeeded against becomes hidden from you
    instead of undetected, and any hidden creature you succeeded against becomes observed
    by you. If you were searching for an object, you learn its location or get a clue
    to its whereabouts, as determined by the GM.

  descr: You try to tell whether a creature’s behavior is abnormal. Choose one creature,
    and assess it for odd body language, signs of nervousness, and other indicators
    that it might be trying to deceive someone. The GM attempts a single secret Perception
    check for you and compares the result to the Deception DC of the creature, the
    DC of a spell af ecting the creature’s mental state, or another appropriate DC
    determined by the GM. You typically can’t try to Sense the Motive of the same
    creature again until the situation changes significantly.\n\n**Critical Success**
    You determine the creature’s true intentions and get a solid idea of any mental
    magic affecting it.\n**Success** You can tell whether the creature is behaving
    normally, but you don’t know its exact intentions or what magic might be affecting
    it.\n**Failure** You detect what a deceptive creature wants you to believe. If
    they’re not being deceptive, you believe they’re behaving normally.\n**Critical
    Failure** You get a false sense of the creature’s intentions.

    against area effects; and to Stealth checks to Hide, Sneak, or otherwise avoid
    detection. Otherwise, you gain the benefits of standard cover (a +2 circumstance
    bonus instead). This lasts until you move from your current space, use an attack

  descr: You call forth the effect of an item by properly activating it. This is a
    special activity that takes a variable number of actions, as listed in the item’s
    stat block.\n\nSome items can be activated as a reaction or free action. In this
    case, you Activate the Item as a reaction or free action (as appropriate) instead
    of as an activity. Such cases are noted in the item’s Activate entry in its stat
    blockfor example, “Activate Reaction command.”\n\n**Long Activation Times** Some
    items take minutes or hours to activate. The Activate an Item activity for these
    items includes a mix of the listed activation components, but it’s not necessary
    to break down which one you’re providing at a given time. You can’t use other
    actions or reactions while activating such an item, though at the GM’s discretion,
    you might be able to speak a few sentences. As with other activities that take
    a long time, these activations have the exploration trait, and you can’t activate
    them in an encounter. If combat breaks out while you’re activating one, your activation
    is disrupted (see the Disrupting Activations sidebar).\n\n**Activation Components**
    Each activation entry lists any components involved in the activation after the
    action icons or text, such as “Single Action command.” The activation components,
    described below, add traits (listed in parentheses) and requirements to the activation.
    If you can’t provide the components, you fail to Activate the Item.\n\n- Command
    (auditory, concentrate)\n- Envision (concentrate)\n- Interact (manipulate)\n-
    Cast a Spell\n\n#### Activation Components\n\nAn item’s activate entry lists the
    components required to activate its abilities. Each component adds certain traits
    to the Activate an Item activity, and some components have special requirements.
    The components that appear in this book are listed below.\n\n#####Command\n\nThis
    component is a specific utterance you must make in a loud and strong voice. Activate
    an Item gains the auditory and concentrate traits. You must be able to speak to
    provide this component.\n\n##### Envision\n\nThis component is a specific image
    or phenomenon you need to imagine. Activate an Item gains the concentrate trait.\n\n#####
    Interact\n\nThis component works like the Interact basic action. Activate an Item
    gains the manipulate trait and requires you to use your hands, just like with
    any Interact action.\n\n##### Cast a Spell\n\nIf an item lists “Cast a Spell”
    after “Activate,” the activation requires you to use the Cast a Spell activity
    to Activate the Item. This happens when the item replicates a spell. You must
    have a spellcasting class feature to Activate an Item with this activation component.
    If the item can be used for a specific spell, the action icon for that spell is
    provided. If it’s an item like a staff, which can be used for many spells, the
    icon is omitted, and you must refer to each spell to determine which actions you
    must spend to Activate the Item to cast it.\n\n In this case, Activate an Item
    gains all the traits from the relevant components of the Cast a Spell activity.
  name: Activate an Item
  req: You can Activate an Item with the invested trait only if it’s invested by you.
    If the item requires you to Interact with it, you must be wielding it (if it’s
    a held item) or touching it with a free hand (if it’s another type of item).

    is a special activity that takes a variable number of actions depending on the

    Some spells are cast as a reaction or free action. In those cases, you Cast the
    Spell as a reaction or free action (as appropriate) instead of as an activity.
    Such cases will be noted in the spell’s stat blockfor example, "[reaction] verbal."


    **Long Casting Times** Some spells take minutes or hours to cast. The Cast a Spell
    activity for these spells includes a mix of the listed spell components, but it’s

    **Spell Components** Each spell lists the spell components required to cast it
    after the action icons or text, such as "[three-actions] material, somatic, verbal."

    it to have no effect and be lost. When you lose a spell, you’ve already expended
    the spell slot, spent the spell’s costs and actions, and used the Cast a Spell
    activity. If a spell is disrupted during a Sustain a Spell action, the spell immediately
    ends. The full rules for disrupting actions appear on page 462 CRB.'

    The duration of that activation continues until the end of your next turn. Some
    activations may have slightly different or expanded effects if you sustain them.
    Sustaining an Activation for more than 10 minutes (100 rounds) ends the activation
    and makes you fatigued unless the item’s description states a different maximum
    duration (such as “up to 1 minute” or “up to 1 hour”).\n\nIf your Sustain an Activation
    action is disrupted, the item’s effect immediately ends.
  name: Sustain an Activation
  req: You have at least one magic item activation that you can sustain and you are
    not fatigued.

- descr: Basic actions represent common tasks like moving around, attacking, and helping
    others. As such, every creature can use basic actions except in some extreme circumstances,
    and many of those actions are used very frequently. Most notably, you’ll use Interact,
    Step, Stride, and Strike a great deal. Many feats and other actions call upon
    you to use one of these basic actions or modify them to produce different effects.
    For example, a more complex action might let you Stride up to double your Speed
    instead of just up to your Speed, and a large number of activities include a Strike.
