Each hero player has access to a heroic feat as listed on his Hero sheet. These are powerful, once-per-encounter abilities that let hero players do something spectacular. Some heroic feats require an action to perform and are denoted with a File:Action.png. Regardless of when it is performed, a heroic feat can only be performed once per encounter. After a hero player performs his heroic feat, he flips his Hero sheet face down to indicate that it has been used during this encounter. At the start of the next encounter, the hero player flips his Hero sheet so that his heroic feat is available again.
