Experience Spends Procedures and Policies
Experience spends must be submitted as a +req (+help req will explain how to submit one of these) with a title of "XP Spend:". The body of it must explain what level you are buying in the trait, and how much experience you are spending on it. With Skills and Specialties, you can get a 1 point break on the cost of a spend for having an appropriate teacher. You can get the same break on Merits for fulfilling certain requirements based on the Merit in question (an instructor for a fighting style, or interacting with an NPC that you want for an Ally or Retainer). There is no way for a cost break on Attribute or Morality spends.

As a note, when looking at buying Merits, you will need to keep in mind that even for Merits that have non-sequential levels available, you must still buy the intermediary ratings. For instance, Area of Expertise is only available at a rating of 2. To buy it at 2, you must pay for 1 even though it does not technically exist. So the total for it would be 6 experience (2 for the first level plus 4 for the second). This would, however, only count as one spend, rather than two.

You are limited in the number of experience spends you can submit in an OOC month to a number equal to your character's Intelligence trait. This resets on the first day of every OOC month.
