[QUOTE="mellored, post: 7369565, member: 6801209"] First responders are trained to quickly react to an emergency situation. They are adept at spotting, analyzing, and coordinating a response to incoming threats. Wisdom is their primary attribute, letting them be aware of the situation. Intelligence and Charisma are good secondary attributes that help you analyze the situation and coordinating a response with others.

Or an avalanche that caught some hikers, might be caused by the stirring of a beast deep below the mountain. Always ready to rush in, First Responders can quickly be caught up in an adventure.
