Abilities

Driving Specialist — For encounters involving driving, the driver is an 8th-level challenge.
Express Driver — A driver can attempt a Driving-lore check to increase a vehicle's travel Speed when calculating the value for a day. The DC is determined by the GM but is typically based on the vehicle's piloting DC or the difficulty of traversing the environment, whichever is harder. On a success, increase the vehicle's travel Speed by half.
Skilled Driver — The driver gains a +10 circumstance bonus to any skill check involved in driving a vehicle, and is considered a master in the skill for such checks. This bonus also applies to any initiative roll while the driver is piloting a vehicle.
