Legendary characters are major forces in their worlds, and often have political power and influence as well as a host of Edges to defeat those who oppose them.
Once a hero reaches Legendary status, the rules for Advances change a bit. The character now Advances every time he accumulates 10 Experience Points instead of 5, but a world of new Edges opens up to him as well. "Legendary Edges" allow heroes to accumulate followers, build castles, start massive corporations, and otherwise become major players in their campaign world.
Legendary characters may also choose to improve an attribute every other Advance. A few Legendary Edges are included in this book. Many more are quite specific to their particular campaign worlds, and so are covered in other Savage Settings.
