Edges

Psychic: A Time to Every Purpose Under the Heaven
This Edge lets the character pick the best moment to carry out something they have already planned - for example knowing which hand to really run up the betting on.

Equipment: Home Away From Home
The character won this yacht on a particularly good evening in the casino. Somehow it's always there in port, even when it's not the same port as it was when it was left there.

Probably has one or two crew as part of the package.

Physical: You Can't Keep a Good Man Down
This Edge makes the character faster to recover from illness and injury

Likely to be immune to natural diseases

Skill: Did You Want That Bridge To Be Somewhere Else?
This edge allows the character to be skilled in the use of explosives, particularly for demolitions work...

This would put him as one of the world's finest explosive experts and would allow some extraordinary usage of explosives - including getting more bang than should otherwise be expected

Psychic: It Sounded Like A Good Idea At The Time
People the character is talking to tend to suffer failures in critical thinking. "So, Private, why exactly did you give the guy with the yacht ten sticks of dynamite?"
