Dice Rifts Adventure Characters

[Psychie]

Lvl 4 Basic HTH gives another +1 attack per melee.

Ok, I didn't see you were at level four. My bad!

 

[Sherwood]

Ok everyone! After thinking about it for a bit, I'm going to institute the Bonus Point system that has been discussed in earlier posts. As you level up, you get Bonus Points equal to 5 + 1/2 you current level, rounded up. These points do not roll over from level to level, so make sure you use them wisely. This Bonus Point can be used for any attack, defense or skill roll you want. What does a Bonus Point give you, you ask?

In the case of a d20 roll, you add an additional D6 to the result. In the event of a natural 1-4, it still is an automatic miss, so in that case, the BP is wasted.

For a percentile (d100) roll, you add a d6 to your roll, but each point you get is 5%, giving you a potential +30% to your roll.

When you use an BP, you must declare it before the base roll that it is being added to is rolled.

SexyStonerRoleplaygal Don't forget the house rule for the bonus points that I'm using. It will come very handy having them, trust me!

Other than that and the need for your spells that you have, everything is looking good so far. I have a plan in place for introducing you to the game, so once you are done, we'll get rollin'!

 

[SexyStonerRoleplaygal]

Ok the bonus points? right?

 

[Sherwood]

Did I miss them on your sheet? I didn't see them. But yes, bonus points, then your spells.

 

[Sherwood]

Not to be picky, but what book are you using for your spells? I don't recognize them. For the MDC game of Rifts, you'll want to check out either the Rifts Ultimate Edition or the Book of Magic.

 

[SexyStonerRoleplaygal]

Ok so we good to go now?

 

[Sherwood]

Yes indeed. I hope you like your intro that I'm working on.

BTW, great character picture!

 

[SexyStonerRoleplaygal]

Thanks it was the chosen out of a toss up of two ideas lol! Can't wait lol. Malice needs some entertainment.
I tried to design her to be a balance of offense and knowledge So I can pretty much have some input on anything she encounters!

 

[SexyStonerRoleplaygal]

This was my second option I was playing around with. lol!

 

[Vaneheart]

Yay! New people! :-)

 

[Vaneheart]

That's just some of the pages. My process is terrible. :-(

I am getting it all on the sheet though. Totally not George R.R. Martin-ing this. ;-)

 

[Sherwood]

Here is some more tasty xp for all. Another 3,000 points. Everyone has done so well with the game so far, and I'm quite pleased to see the development that everyone has done.

[Vaneheart]

[Purr]

Grats on the level-ups, Psychie and Sil! =)

Hey everyone! I know that we are still in the midst of a combat, but since today is my birthday, I'm giving out the gift of some xp so everyone can party with me.

  Spoiler: Research 97%

  Training in the use of methods, techniques, and means of finding information, including public records, libraries, interviews, surveys, demographics, trade journals, the computer networks, and legal
  searches. This skill is helpful in locating information about people, places and things. The G.M. should ultimately regulate the availability of accessible, known information regarding a paricular subject. Any character can do research and ask questions, but the Research skill will reduce the amount of time needed by half and the character is trained to notice relevant information that an untrained character is liable to overlook. Thus, for truly secret or difficult information, you must have the character with the Research skill try to uncover it. Only roll to determine success on researching these difficult or hushed up bits of information.
  
  Bonus: Adds a +5% bonus to Law. Impersonation and History skills.
  Base Skill: 40% +5% per level of experience
  Spoiler: Lore - Faeries & Creatures of Magic 72%

  The study of Faeries, Goblins, shape changers, giants, dragons, the sphinx, and creatures of magic throughout the ages, via lore, myths, legends, and first-hand accounts. This skill is effectively the same as the previous Lore skills except that the emphasis of the lore is on Faerie Folk, dragons and other magical creatures and beings - creatures that are neither demonic nor supernatural, but long-lived and attributed with magical powers. The Faeries of ancient myths include Faeries, Sprites, Pixies, Brownies, Leprechauns, Bogies, Toad Stools, Pucks, Kelpies, Gnomes, Goblins, Tengu, Fox Faeries, and a host of other creatures of magic.
  
  Base Skill: 25% +5% per level of experience.
  Spoiler: Language-American 78%)

  The character can understand and speak in a language other than his own. Language is one of the few skills that can be selected repeatedly in order to speak several different languages. Each selection gives the character knowledge of one different language, but each language counts as one skill selection
  
  Base Skill: 50% +3% per level of experience
  
  Secondary Skills
  lv1
  
  Spoiler: Gymnastics

  Learning to do falls, rolls, tumbles, cartwheels, somersaults and to work the parallel bars and rings. This sport builds great upper body strength, grace, and balance. Provides all of the following:
  

  • An automatic kick attack at frst level (2D4 damage).
  • Sense of balance (50% +3% per level) = 78%
  • Work parallel bars & rings (60% +3% per level) = 88%

  • Basic Prowl ability (30%; or adds a +5% to Prowl skill)
  • Basic Climb ability (25%; or adds a +5% to Climbing skill)
  • Climb Rope/Rappel (60% +2% per level) = 81%

  Bonuses: +2 bonus to roll with impact, +2 to P.S., + 1 to P.P., +2 to P.E. and +2D6 to S.D.C.
  Spoiler: W.P Pole Arm (+4 / +3)

  Training with all types of large, bladed spear-like weapons, including the glaive, saber halberd, runka, scythe and voulge, among others. Damage: Typically 2D8, with the largest doing 3D6; only the Voulge does 4D6 damage.
  
  Bonuses: +2 damage at levels 2 and 8. +1 to strike and parry at levels 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12. +1 to strike when thrown at levels 3, 8, and 12; not designed for throwing.
  
  lv2
  
  Spoiler: Boxing

  Classic art of fghting with fsts. Training helps build the body and reflexes. Skilled boxers will automatically knockout opponents on a roll of a Natural Twenty. The victim of a knockout will remain unconscious for I D6 melees. Unlike normal knockout/stun, the player does not have to announce that he is trying to knockout his opponent before making a roll to strike.
  
  Bonuses: + 1 additional attack per melee round, +2 to parry and dodge, + 1 to roll with impact punch, +2 to P.S. and +3D6 to S.D.C
  Spoiler: Wrestling

  As taught in old high schools and colleges, wrestling is more of a sport than a combat skill, but it does provide some useful combat moves.
  
  Bonuses: + 1 to roll with impact / fall, +2 to P.S., + 1 to P.E. and +4D6 to S.D.C.
  
  Wrestling Special Moves:
  1. Body BlocklTackle does 1 D4 damage (double if the wrestler is 8 to 1 2 feetl2.4 to 3 .6 m tall, and 3D6 damage if larger). The opponent must dodge or parry (push away/deflect attacker) to avoid being knocked down. If knocked down, the opponent loses one melee attack/action and initiative for the rest of that round.
  2. Pin/Incapacitate on a natural roll of 18, 19, or 20. This means that the wrestler can hold his opponent in such a way that his opponent cannot physically attack or move. However, the character who is using the "pin" hold cannot attack or move without releasing his opponent.
  3. Crush/Squeeze does 1D4 S.D.C. damage per squeeze attack (double damage if 8 to 12 feet 2.4 to 3.6m tall, and 3D6 damage if larger). Each "squeeze" counts as one melee action/attack.
  
  lv4
  
  Spoiler: Track and Field

  This relates to the sport track and field and relies basically on the running and other such sports of that sort. This is increasing the character's speed and agility. (See Generic Palladium SkillsList.pdf)
  
  Bonuses: +10 Spd, +2P.P., +2P.E., +2P.S. +1 to throw object
  Spoiler: Hand-to-Hand Expert

  specific abilities
  
  lv8
  
  Spoiler: Art 42%

  The ability to draw, paint and/or sculpt or do craft work. Selection as an occupation related skill indicates a professional quality, while selection as a Secondary Skill indicates a talented amateur
  
  Base Skill: 35% +5% per level of experience
  Spoiler: WP Rune Weapons

  This gives the character the knowledge and ability to use all and any Rune Weapons. With this skill the character can use any rune weapon whether or not he has that w.p. (i.e. if the character doesn't have a w.p. sword but does have a rune sword he can still use it). This gives the character an additional +2 to strike with a rune weapon and +3 to parry with a rune shield.

• 
  
  Spoiler: Bio-Regeneration

  1D10 MDC per round or 1D4 x 10 MDC per minute
  Spoiler: Teleport 48%

  Teleportation is a special power common to most dragons. The character can teleport, at will, up to five miles (8 km) away. At the Hatchling stage, he can only teleport himself The percentage number indicates the likelihood of being able to activate the teleportation. A failed roll means the teleport did not happen. The Hatchling can attempt a teleport once every other melee round. Only a mature dragon can perform a dimensional teleport without using a ley line nexus. Hatchlings can attempt a dimensional teleport at a ley line or nexus at half its usual percentage number.
  
  34% +2% per level of experience
  Spoiler: Breath Weapon

  The Royal Frilled Dragon can breathe out a purple mist that lingers and causes paralysis in all who breathe it in. Unless the intended victim(s) have an independent oxygen supply (air filters are not good enough), the vapor will paralyze them for 1D4 + 1 minutes unless they makes a successful save versus non-lethal poison (16 or higher). A successful save means no effect and once a character has saved, he is immune to the vapors for the next 24 hours. Range: 60 feet (18 m); affects a 12 foot (3.6 m) area, vapors dissipate within eight seconds. The poison breath may be used as often as once per melee round (15 seconds).
  Spoiler: Metamorphosis 20 hours

  A natural ability common to most dragons enabling the character to completely alter his physical shape, transforming himself to look like any living animal, from human being to cat. There are some limitations. The dragon cannot metamorphosize into inanimate objects or insects. The minimum size is about the size of a cat and the maximum size cannot exceed the dragon's own. The transformation can last two hours per level of experience. If on or near a ley line or nexus point (within two miles/3 .2 km), the time is tripled.
  
  Note: Regardless of his shape, a dragon is a dragon, with all its natural powers and abilities. So a Hatchling metamorphed to look like a bunny rabbit can still talk, cast spells, and kick with the strength of a dragon. The metamorphosis does not instill any of the abilities of the animal, only its appearance.
  
  May transform for 4 hours per level of experience.
  Spoiler: Night Vision 200ft

  Note: Granted as Natural Ability
  The psionic can adjust his visual capabilities through a form of biomanipulation. The eyes are made to become much more light-sensitive and basically work on the same principles of mechanical light amplification. The eyes simply amplify existing light, such as candlelight or star and moonlight, to see clearly. There must be some source of light to see (can not see in total darkness).
  
  Note: If suddenly exposed to light brighter than a single candle, the psychic will be temporarily blinded for 3D4 melee rounds. The Nightvision power can also be used to change one's vision to polarized sight, reducing glare as would a pair of polarized sunglasses
  Spoiler: See the Invisible

  The character can see Astral beings, entities, Elementals, ghosts, objects, forces and creatures that can turn invisible or are naturally invisible. Even if the creature has no form per se, the mystic will be able to discern the vaporous image or energy sphere that is the being.
  Spoiler: Shadow Meld 20 minutes

  Note: Granted as Natural Ability
  This unique magic enables the spell caster to step into shadows, becoming totally invisible, even to a "See the Invisible" spell. The shadow must be at least five feet ( 1 . 5 m) tall or long to become an effective hiding place. The shadow serves as a superior means of hiding or moving unseen. The mage can move, walk, or run through the length of a shadow or from shadow to shadow. While in shadow/darkness, the character prowls at a 60% proficiency (or at +15% to normal skill, whichever is higher).
  
  Intense light will dispel the shadow, leaving the mage revealed. Of
  course, sanctuary can be found by fleeing into another shadow. Feeble
  light, less than 10 torches or 300 watts, will only create more shadows.
  
  While hidden in shadow, the character is still susceptible to magic, psionic and physical attacks, although attackers are -5 to strike him (because they can not see him). Area affects magic does not suffer any penalty. Infrared/thermal-optics are the only means that can be used to see somebody in a shadow
  Spoiler: Resistant to Fire

  Takes half damage from Fire, including MD fire and plasma.
  Spoiler: Resistant to Cold

  Takes half damage from Cold.
  Spoiler: Impervious to Paralysis

  Ignores paralysis effects.
• 
  Physical
  
  Spoiler: Alter Aura

  Range: Self
  Duration: One hour per each level of experience.
  I.S.P. : 2
  Saving Throw: None.
  
  According to psychics who can see such things, all living beings possess an aura - a colorful energy field that is invisible to the naked eye and most conventional forms of photography and sensors. This psychic ability does not allow the psychic to see auras, but to alter his own. The psychic can manipulate his physical energy field to appear different (stronger, weaker, sickly, lacking psionics, evil rather than good, etc.). The altered aura sends the wrong message to those humanoids and supernatural beings who can see auras and use the information they glean from them to assess an opponent or find a kindred (evil or psychic) spirit. Alterations include:
  • The general level of experience can be made to seem lower (level 1or 2) or much higher ( I D4+3 levels higher) than it really is.
  • Conceal one's true alignment and cover it with a false one (any).
  • Conceal the presence of psychic ability (the aura appears to be normal for that race) or shows L S.P. levels to be much lower than they really are (but not higher).
  • Conceal the amount of base P.P.E.; seems to be only 1 -2 points.
  • Conceal the presence of magic.
  • Conceal true physical attributes, making them appear to be half of what they really are, or 30% higher.
  • Alter Aura to appear weak and fatigued or sickly.
  • Alter Aura to appear emotionally or mentally agitated or unstable, or depressed (not aggressive or alert).
  • And for triple, the usual LS.P. (6 points) the psychic can adjust the aura to appear as if he is possessed or terminally ill.
  Spoiler: Enhance Reflexes

  Range: Self.
  Duration: Two minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 10
  
  When a psychic uses this ability, he greatly enhances his mind-body connection, hand-eye coordination, and reaction time. This power allows the psychic to be more agile and aware of his body. For the duration that this power is in use, the psychic gains the following bonuses: +1 attack per melee, +3 on initiative, +1 to strike, +2 to parry and dodge. +2 to P.P. (adding further bonuses to strike/parry/dodge if boosted to 16 or higher), and +15% to all Physical skills that rely on coordination or balance.
  Spoiler: Resist Damage

  Range: Self.
  Duration: Five minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 25
  
  The psychic using this power toughens all tissue in his entire body and generates a minor biofeedback field that absorbs damage. When in effect, the psychic only takes half damage from any fall, impact, punch, bullet, or energy attack, even if the damage is magic or psionic. Even damage that goes directly to Hit Points is halved. Furthermore, the biofeedback field absorbs the first 5 S.D.C. or Hit Points of damage from each attack. This damage resistance does not apply to anything the character is carrying.
  Spoiler: Strength of Mind

  Range: Self.
  Duration: Two minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 10
  
  This power is as much mind over matter as it is an actual boost to the body's physical capabilities. The psychic is empowered with supernatural strength and endurance by "willing" the body to be stronger and focusing psionic energy directly into the muscles. The psychic gains bonuses of +10 to P.S., +5 to P.E., and +20 S.D.C. for the duration of this ability. The supernatural strength does not give the psychic the ability to inflict Mega-Damage with punches or kicks, but it does instill the power to lift and carry the same as a supernatural creature.
  Spoiler: Telekinesis

  Range: Up to 60 feet ( 1 8.3 m) away.
  Duration: 2 minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: Small: 3, medium: 8, large (over 20 Ibs/9 kg): 8 +1per every 10 lbs (4. 5 kg) of weight.
  
  Telekinesis is the ability to move objects without any other means than directed psychic energy. The character can make an object hop, fall, roll, rise into the air, suspend it there (hover) or make it fly across the room.
  
  In order to move an object by Telekinesis, the item must be clearly visible, within the psychic' s range (60 feet/ I 8.3 m) and the point of focus. As usual, the psychic must concentrate on what he is doing; thus, each telekinetic feat counts as one of the character's physical attacks. The total number of telekinetic attacks is equal to the character's number of physical attacks per melee; usually 4 or 5. One can attack with Telekinesis by hurling an object as if thrown or causing it to buzz about a room, swinging and hitting like a club controlled by an invisible hand. Several objects can be telekinetically thrown around within the same melee round, but not simultaneously. The psychic can only concentrate on one item at a time. For example: A physical psychic with four, normal, hand to hand attacks per melee can perform four attacks with Telekinesis. First, he makes a flower vase fly from the table, aiming it at his opponent's head. Second, he makes the lamp hurl at the guard at the door. Third, the table is suddenly flipped up on end and, fourth, the doorknob is turned and the door flung open. Four attacks or actions using Telekinesis.
  
  As we can see in the example, Telekinesis can be used to do more than making objects fly around. The Telekinetic power can be used to open doors, flick switches, press buttons, tur knobs and dials, open windows, make a rocking chair rock and so on. The range of possibilities is extensive when you stop and think about it. Remember, each action counts as one of the character's physical actions/attacks per melee.
  
  It is easiest to move or hurl small objects weighing two pounds (0.9 kg or less). Maximum height or distance is 60 feet ( 1 8.3 m). Medium-sized objects weighing 3 to 20 pounds ( 1 .3 5 to 9 kg) are more difficult to manipulate. Maximum height or distance is reduced by half; 30 feet (9. 1 m). Large or heavy objects weighing over 20 Ibs (9 kg) are the most difficult to maneuver, reducing maximum height and distance to 15 feet (4.6 m). LS.P. cost for large, heavy objects is 8 L S.P. for the first 20 Ibs (9 kg) plus one LS.P. for each additional 1 0 Ibs (4.5 kg) of weight. This means it would cost 1 9 LS.P. to move a 1 25 Ib (56.2 kg) weight (8 LS.P. for the first 20 Ibs (9 kg) + 1 1 L S.P. for the remaining 1 05 Ibs). Remember, the height and distance of effect is limited to 15 feet (4.6 m) for such a heavy object.
  
  Telekinesis Combat Bonuses :
  • +3 to strike with Telekinesis; physical/skill bonuses to strike do not apply when Telekinesis is used.
  • +4 to parry with Telekinesis by using a controlled object to parry or sheer telekinetic force to block an attack. Counts as a medium heavy object; costs 8 LS.P. Note: Only these two bonuses apply to TK combat.
  • S.D.C. Damage from Hurled Objects: Ver Small: 6 ounces to 1 pound (0.23 to 0.45 kg): 1D4. Small: 1.5 to 2 Ibs (0.6 to 0.9 kg): 1D6. Medium Small: 2-4 Ibs (0.9 to 1.8 kg): 2D4. Medium : 5 to 10 Ibs (2.25 to 4.5 kg): 3D4. Medium Large: 11 to 25 Ibs (4.95 to 11.2 kg): 3D6. Large: 26 to 40 Ibs (11 .7 to 18 kg): 4D6. Add 1D6 damage for each additional 20 Ibs (9 kg).
  
  Note: This form of Telekinesis is not a force field, thus, while it can be used to parry/block a punch, kick, club, knife or even sword, it cannot stop bullets, arrows, gas, flying tackles, and similar attacks. Furthermore, a failed roll to make a telekinetic parry means the psychic did not parry and is struck by his opponent. Telekinesis moves, lifs and throws physical objects with the power
  of the mind, so it may be used to hurl a victim into something as a slam attack but NOT as a crushing or thrusting attack in and of itself. Objects thrown would be equivalent to objects thrown by a physical hand. Telekinesis does not allow psychics to levitate themselves or fly, due to the weight limitation (see Super Telekinesis).

  Spoiler: Clairvoyant Prediction

  Range: Self.
  Duration: Instant.
  I.S.P.: 4
  Base Chance of Prediction: 62% +2% per level of experience.
  
  This unique power is a simple form of Clairvoyance that is used to guess the outcome of simple events or decisions. This power will give the psychic a feeling of the most probable outcome for simple events, such as the outcome of a roll of the dice, coin flip, contest, or decision someone will make. If the odds of an outcome or decision are one in ten or better, the psychic rolls on the base prediction roll (above) to predict the correct outcome. If the odds are 1/1 to 1/100, the psychic is -5%, 1/101 to 1/1000, they are -15%, 1/1001 to 1/5000, -45%, and any event with odds worse than 1/5000 is -65%. sleight-of-hand, etc.). The psionic power provides the psychic with a +3 to Perception, +1 to strike, +2 to parry and dodge, and a +10% to any skill that relies on any of the basic senses (such as Intelligence, Tracking, or certain Physical skills like Juggling or Prowl).
  Spoiler: Enhanced Perception

  Range: Self.
  Duration: Five minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 10
  
  This incredible psionic power augments the psychic's physical senses, enhancing his perception. This enhanced state of awareness sharpens all natural senses by 50%, and further enables the psychic to "filter" all of this extra sensory input in order to concentrate on one or a few specific things. While using this ability, the psychic will notice every detail around him down to the slightest motion, sound, scent, and shadow. He will further be likely to notice changes and inconsistencies that might reveal traps, illusions, feints, or tricks.
  Spoiler: Mind's Eye

  Range: Self, 100 feet (30.5 m) plus 50 feet (15.2 m) per level of experience.
  Duration: Two minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 8
  
  Mind's Eye is a sensory power that instills the psychic with radar-like vision. This psionic radar allows the character to see the shape of everything around him. Even people or items concealed through magic (except Invisibility: Superior) can be seen with this radar vision. A psychic using this power suffers no penalties when blinded or in complete darkness. The psychic can sense and interpret the shape, distance, direction, speed, and location of everything around in all directions at an accuracy of 70% +2% per level of experience. While using this power, the character has the following bonuses: +3 on initiative, +1 to strike, +2 to parry and dodge, and cannot be snuck upon or surprised. Heavy rain or smoke greatly hinders this power, negating the bonuses and giving a -30% to interpreting ability.
  Spoiler: See Aura

  Range: 60 feet ( 1 8.3 m) and must be visible.
  Duration: 2 melees (30 seconds).
  I.S.P.: 6
  Saving Throw: None, but a Mind Block will hide the presence of psychic abilities, the level of P.P.E., and possession by a supernatural force.
  
  All things, organic and inorganic, have an aura. The aura has many distinctions ad indicates things to the psychic normally invisible to the ordinary eye.
  
  Seeing an aura will indicate the following:
  • Estimate the general level of experience. Low ( 1 -3), medium (4-7), high (8th and up).
  • The presence of magic (no indication of what type or the power level).
  • The presence of psychic abilities (again though, not the type or power level).
  • High or low base P.P.E.
  • The presence of a Possessing Entity.
  • The presence of an unusual human aberration and/or indicates a serious illness, insanity, or that the individual is not-human, could be mutant or supernatural, but does not specify which.
  
  Note: A psychic can not tell one's alignment by using this power.
  Spoiler: Sense Psionics

  Range: 100 foot (30.5 m) area.
  Duration: 2 minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 4
  Base Skill: 40% +3% per level of experience.
  
  This ability enables the character to sense the use of psionics, tell approximately how close it is, and in what general direction. This power can be used to track the psychic emanations back to their source, with a 40% +3% per level of experience chance of success.
  Spoiler: Sense Magic

  Range: 1 20 feet (36.6 m) area.
  Duration: 2 minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P. : 3
  Saving Throw: None.
  
  The ability to sense magic enables the psychic to feel magic energy, tell whether it is near (within 20 feet/6.1 m) or far (up to 120 feet/36.6 m away) and follow the emanations to pinpoint their source as a particular place, room, person or object. Note: Invisible, magical or supernatural creatures or objects can only be traced to a general area, like a specific room or area. The psychic will also be able to sense whether or not an object has magic powers, if a person or item is enchanted/under a magic spell (this does not include psionic influences), when magic is being used within the area ( 1 20 feetl36.6 m) and when a person is casting a spell (human users of magic do not radiate magic energies until they call upon them).
  Spoiler: Speed Reading

  Range: Self.
  Duration : 3 minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 2
  
  This is the ability to read and comprehend the written word extremely quickly. Speed of reading is 30 pages per minute (4 melee rounds). The psychic will retain the information as he would normally.
  Highly technical texts will reduce the speed reading by half (15 pages per minute) and may require two readings to remember in detail.
  
  Healing
  
  Spoiler: Meditation

  Range: Self
  Duration: As needed; at least one hour of meditation is required.
  I.S.P.: None, zero.
  
  Meditation is a trance state of consciousness in which the individual can calm his emotions and focus on relaxation of mind and body. In a meditative state, the psychic finds peace and harmony between mind, body, and spirit, and it is in this state of being that he can regenerate his Inner Strength (I.S.P.). Recovers Base I.S.P. at a rate as indicated under each psychic O.C.C., otherwise six I. S.P. per hour of meditation.
  Spoiler: Restore Memory

  Range: Touch. Duration:
  Permanent. I.S.P.: 12
  
  This is a simple but useful power that can restore a small block of memory lost earlier due to natural causes, aging/disease, physical or mental trauma, magic, or psionics. The memory that is restored can be any single skill, event, or part of the patient's personality. Multiple or total memory loss or Mind Wipe must be restored one skill, event, memory, etc. at a time.

  Spoiler: Bio-Manipulation

  Range: 1 60 feet (48.8 m).
  Duration: 4- 1 6 minutes (ro1l 4D4).
  I.S.P.: 1 0
  Saving Throw: Standard; if a character successfully saves against the attack he is not affected at all. This applies to all seven bio-manipulative attacks.
  
  The psychic is able to induce physical trauma to the nervous system of others by sheer force of will and conveyance of psychic energy. This psi-power is also known as the Evil Eye, especially in rural areas where magic and folklore rule the day.
  
  There are seven types of Bio-Manipulation effects, all of which are available to those with this power. Each affects only one person per attack and can be used in any combination. Intended victims must be within line of vision or their exact location known to the psychic. Each costs 10 I.S.P. to inflict.
  
  This psychic power enables the psychic to temporarily manipulate specific biological functions or conditions in human and animal life forms. The duration can be extended 4-16 (4D4) minutes per additional 6 I.S.P.
  
  Blind: Temporarily knocks out the victim 's optic nerves, rendering that person quite helpless. Victims are - 1 0 to strike, parry and dodge.
  
  Deafness: Can be caused by manipulating the eardrum. Victims can not hear anything, and are -6 to parry or dodge attacks from behind. In addition, the shock of suddenly becoming deaf makes them -3 to strike, parry or dodge any other attacks, and they automatically lose the initiative on all attacks while deaf
  
  Mute: Impairs the victim's vocal cords, making speech impossible. Victims are likely to be shocked and panic, making them -2 to strike, parry and dodge for the first melee ONLY.
  
  Pain: By manipulating the nerve centers the psionic can induce terrible pain, shooting throughout the body. Victims are -6 to strike, parry, and dodge, and take one point of damage off their Hit Points (not S.D.C.) per each minute affected.
  
  Paralysis: Immobilizes the motor part of the brain, causing legs and arms to stop functioning. Victims are completely incapacitated for the duration. Note: A paralyzed character can still use psionics but only if he has line of sight on his intended target. Spell casters need to speak, so they cannot cast spells while paralyzed.
  
  Stun: This attack disorients and confuses its victims. Victims forfeit one attack per melee, speed is cut by half, and the character is -4 to strike, parry, dodge, disarm, and all combat moves.
  
  Tissue Manipulation: Affects the tissue's connecting nerve fibers which can cause a variety of effects. By irritating the nerve fibers, a victim will suddenly feel itchy, as if breaking out in a severe rash. Through endothermic manipulation the victim can also be made to suddenly feel cold or hot while everyone around him feels fine. ALL three conditions are more annoying or frightening than physically impairing. In each case the victims are - I to strike, parry and dodge.
  
  Note: Bio-Manipulation will affect an opponent inside M.D.C. environmental body armor and light power armor (under 220 M.D.C.), but not heavy power armor, giant robots or armored, military vehicles.
  Spoiler: Empathy: Superior

  Range: 100 feet (30.5 m) plus 50 feet (15.2 m) per level of experience.
  Duration: 2 minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 8
  Saving Throw: Standard.
  
  This is a more powerful Form of Empathy than the lesser Sensitive power. With Empathy: Superior the character can not only sense current surface emotions, but can also sense emotions that are deeper than the current emotional state. The character can find what emotions are attached to anything he desires if the victim fails the saving throw. This means that the character could tell if the victim was afraid of something, angry with someone, hates something or someone, or even what the victim's normal emotional state is. If the emotion the character is sensing is something really strong, they may see a glimpse of or hear part of the memory associated with that emotion (60% +3% per level chance). Sometimes the character will be able to sense the victim's true feelings, when the victim doesn't even realize what those feelings are. A saving throw should be rolled for each emotion or memory that the character tries to read. The character can make one attempt to sense deep emotions from a victim for each attack per melee. This power can be incredibly useful for interrogation.
  Spoiler: Telepathy: Superior

  Range: 100 feet (30.5 m) plus 50 (15.2 m) feet per level of experience for probe, or 200 feet (61 m) plus 100 feet (30.5 m) per level of experience for two-way communication.
  Duration: 2 minutes per level of experience.
  I.S.P.: 8
  Saving Throw: Standard.
  
  Just like the lesser Sensitive power of Telepathy, Telepathy: Superior grants the ability to hear surface thoughts, or send and receive telepathic messages. However, this superior form of the power gives the character the ability to read deeper or even subconscious thoughts. If the victim fails the saving throw, the psychic will be able to read thoughts on any subject he wants. This can include passwords, names of contacts, the victim's true name, and even skills. Sometimes (40% +3% per level of experience chance) the character will be even able to see or hear parts of memories associated with the thoughts he is reading from the victim. A saving throw should be rolled for each skill/memory/thought that the character tries to read. The character can make one attempt to pull information from the victim for each attack per melee.
• 
  Level One
  
  Spoiler: Cloud of Smoke

  Range: 90 feet (27.4 m).
  Duration : Four melees (one minute) per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Two
  
  This magic enables the mage to create a cloud of dense, black smoke (30x30x30 feetl9x9x9 meter maximum size) up to ninety feet (27.4 m) away. Victims caught in the cloud will be unable to see anything beyond the cloud, and their impaired vision allows them to see no more than three feet (0.9 m) within the cloud, and even then that means only blurry shapes. While in the cloud, victims are -5 to strike, parry, dodge, disarm and entangle.
  Spoiler: Globe of Daylight

  Range: Near self or up to 30 feet (9. 1 m) away.
  Duration: 12 melees (3 minutes) per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Two
  
  A small globe or sphere of true daylight is magically created. The light is bright enough to light up a 12 foot (3.6 m) area per each level of its creator's experience. Because it is daylight, it can ward off vampires and most other types of undead and demons who fear or are hurt by sunlight, keeping them at bay just beyond the edge of the light. The creator of the globe can mentally move it along with himself, or send it up to thirty feet (9.1 m) ahead. The maximum speed at which the globe can travel is equal to a speed attribute of 12.
  Spoiler: Thunderclap

  Range: Directly affects the immediate area (30 feet/9. 1 m) around the
  magic weaver, but can be heard up to one mile ( 1 .6 k) away.
  Duration: Instant.
  Saving Throw: Save vs Horror Factor.
  P.P.E.: Four
  
  The invocation produces a booming clap of thunder that is so loud that it seems to make the air vibrate. A thunderclap is an excellent means of alerting or signaling allies, as well as a means of intimidation. As an intimidation device, it will momentarily startle and distract everyone other than the spell caster. This provides the creator of the thunder with a bonus of +5 on his initiative, + I to strike, parry and dodge, and creates a Horror Factor of 8 (all characters within 30 feet/9.1 m must roll to save vs Horror Factor, except the mage who made the thunder).
  
  Level Two
  
  Spoiler: Concealment

  Range: Small objects up to 40 feet ( 1 2.2 m) away.
  Duration: Five minutes (20 melees) per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: Standard.
  P.P.E.: Six
  
  This magic makes any small object sort of invisible. Actually, it affects the perception of anybody who looks at it. Unless a character makes a successful saving throw, the item can not be seen. This can be applied to an item on one's person or out in the open. Each character who looks at the place where the enchanted object is resting must roll a saving throw versus magic. A failed roll means that particular individual will not see it until the magic lapses. Only one object is affected each time the magic is invoked. The recipient of this magic can not be living and the object must be smaller
  than 14 inches (3 5.5 cm) in length and height, six inches ( 1 5.2 cm) or less in width, and weigh 14 pounds (6.3 kg) or less. Note: If the object is used as a weapon or picked up by the mage or anyone who does see it, the enchantment is broken and it becomes clearly visible to all.
  Spoiler: Detect Concealment

  Range: Area affect: 30 feet (9. 1 m).
  Duration: Instant.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Six
  
  A magic invocation that will instantly negate any Concealment spell(s) and reveal any object(s) which may have been mystically concealed. Can be directed at a specific area or individual, or made to affect an entire area 30 feet (9. 1 m) in diameter.
  Spoiler: Turn Dead

  Range: Up to 60 feet ( I S.3 m) away.
  Duration: Instant effect.
  Saving Throw: Standard.
  P.P.E.: Six
  
  The utterance of this invocation will tum/repel 1D6 animated dead per level of experience. This means that those creatures affected will tum and immediately leave the area without harming the spell caster or anyone near him. The dead who are turned will not come back for 24 hours. This magic only affects "animated" dead and skeletons or corpses that are magically animated like marionettes, but will not affect vampires, zombies, mummies, other undead or any corpse or skeleton possessed by a living entity.
  
  Level Three
  
  Spoiler: Armor of Ithan

  Range: Self or other by touch.
  Duration: One minute (4 melee rounds) per level of the spell caster.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Ten
  
  This powerful spell instantly creates an invisible, weightless, noiseless, full suit of mystic armor upon the spell caster. Or the magic armor can be instantly created upon anyone, as long as the spell caster invokes the spell while touching the intended recipient. Named after the magic armor of the Dwarven King Ithan, this mystic armor has an M.D.C. of 1 0 per level of the spell caster' s experience. Magic fire, lightning, and cold do half damage to it.
  Spoiler: Breathe Without Air

  Range: Self or others by touch.
  Du ration: 12 melees (3 minutes) per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Five
  
  This invocation enables the character to function normally without air, whether it be underwater or in a vacuum, or in an area with little or no oxygen. Unfortunately, the magic does not protect the character from magic toxins or other types of magic, but does protect against natural and man-made gases. Two characters can be given this enchantment simultaneously provided the mage is touching each at the time the spell is invoked.
  Spoiler: Fingers of the Wind

  Range: 9 0 feet (27.4 m).
  Duration: Three melees per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Five
  
  The spell caster can conjure a wind and manipulate it to touch, tap, bump, or press against a person or object. It can also put out candles, slam doors shut, or move or knock over papers, books, and small items weighing less than 1 0 lbs (4.5 kg).
  Spoiler: Invisibility: Simple

  Range: Self only (includes clothes and articles on one's person).
  Duration: Three minutes ( 1 2 melees) per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Six
  
  The spell caster and anything he is wearing or carrying at the time of the invocation are turned completely invisible. Any object picked up after the character has become invisible remains visible. Likewise, any item on his person that is dropped becomes visible. Neither normal nor nightvision can detect invisibility; only beings who can naturally, psionically or magically "see the invisible" are able to see an invisible person. Infrared and heat detectors can also detect and pinpoint an invisible character.
  
  Although the invisible character is imperceptible to the eye, he still retains physical mass. This means he can not go through walls nor can weapons pass harmlessly through him. The character still makes noise, leaves footprints, and physical and magical contact/attacks still affect him as usual.
  
  While invisible, the mage can talk, weave spells, walk, climb, run, open doors, carry objects, and perform other acts of physical exertion, including combat, and remain invisible. The invisibility is terminated when the magic's duration time elapses or the mage cancels the spell. Invisible characters are -9 to be hit. If the character is cut and blood is drawn, then the penalty is reduced to -3 . If cut, only the blood is visible, and so is anything sprayed on the character. Note: Beings that tum invisible as a natural and/or magical ability have Simple Invisibility, not superior, and maybe heard, smelled, register on motion detectors, etc. Aggressive action (including combat) will NOT terminate an Invisibility: Simple spell. Characters who can See the Invisible see both Simple and Superior Invisibility.
  Spoiler: Light Healing

  Range: Touch.
  Duration : Instant.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Six
  
  The spell caster grasps the injured character with both hands, then channels magical energy into him, willing it to aid the person's body in healing. The magic speeds the healing process to clear out minor infection, minor food poisoning/upset stomach, a slight headache, tiny cuts, bumps and bruises. It restores 1D6 S.D.C. or 1D4 Hit Points (not both). The healing is instant and painless. The spell caster may not use this spell on himself.
  Spoiler: Light Target

  Range: One target up to 10 feet (3 m) away or two by touch.
  Duration: Two minutes per level of the spell caster.
  Saving Throw: Standard.
  P.P.E.: Six
  
  This spell may seem quite harmless but is designed for ill intent. The sorcerer can create a rather bright glow of light around any one victim (two if by touch). The glow is intended to mark the character and make him stand out in a crowd (as a thief, outsider, fool, troublemaker, enemy, or target), it is especially effective at night. Covering oneself with other clothes, blankets, rags or armor in an attempt to obscure the glow is fruitless for the glow remains -- it is the person, not his clothing that is "targeted" and the aura of light remains around him no matter what he wears (this magic goes not work on inanimate objects). Hiding behind closed doors, in a closet or trunk, or inside a vehicle may conceal the character, provided that the radiating light can not be seen through cracks, keyholes, windows or other openings through which light can be seen. A simple yet potentially nasty spell.
  Spoiler: Mystic Fulcrum

  Range: Self or two others by touch.
  Duration: Five minutes per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: Not applicable.
  P.P.E.: Five
  
  Mystic Fulcrum is another spell that defies or tweaks the laws of physics. Those enchanted by the magic can pick up and move objects that they would otherwise not have the leverage and ability to do without a lever and support. Those enchanted by Mystic Fulcrum can lift 50% more weight than usual and carry 10% more.
  Spoiler: Negate Poison/Toxin

  Range: Self or by touch.
  Duration: Instant.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Five
  
  The spell caster can magically tum a poisonous substance inert, rendering it harmless. The magic can also be used to instantly negate poison in the bloodstream, preventing further damage by the foul substance. However, any damage caused by the poison before the magic is used can not be reversed.
  
  Level Four
  
  Spoiler: Carpet of Adhesion

  Range: 30 feet (9. 1 m) + 10 feet (3 m) per level of the spell caster.
  Duration: 10 melee rounds (two and a half minutes) per level of the
  spell caster.
  Saving Throw: Special.
  P.P.E.: Ten
  
  The spell caster creates a sticky carpet, up to 10 feet wide by 20 feet (3x6 m) long, that will adhere firmly to anyone who touches it. The victim stays stuck until the carpet spell time elapses or until the spell caster cancels the spell. The carpet can be cast on a floor, table, wall, etc., or actually cast upon a person. The spell caster can create this super-flypaper up to 90 feet (27.4 m) away and can alter the size and shape (without exceeding the stated limit of 200 square feet / 8.6 sq. m).
  
  Saving Throw: If a successful saving throw vs magic is made, that player rolls two six-sided dice to see how many melee rounds it will take him to pull free. Those failing to make the saving throw are stuck for the entire duration of the spell. Effective even against cyborgs, power armor, robots and those with Supernatural P. S. Someone who Teleports away will Teleport part of the Carpet with them Gust the immediate area around them) and remains stuck when they reach their new destination.
  
  Level Five
  
  Spoiler: Eyes of Thoth

  Range: Self or others by touch.
  Duration: 10 minutes per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Eight
  
  Thoth is the god of knowledge and wisdom of the ancient Egyptians
  and said to know all languages. This invocation enables the character to
  read and understand ALL written languages, modern and ancient. However, spoken languages are incomprehensible unless a Tongues spell is
  also invoked or the character has an education in that language.

  Range: Self or one other by touch.
  Duration: One melee (15 seconds) per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Twenty-Five
  
  This magic makes the individual impervious to cold, fire and all energy attacks, impervious to disease, poisons, toxins, gases, and drugs, and provides a form-fitting energy field which appears as a glowing aura around the body (50 M.D.C.). One the 50 M.D.C. from the energy field are exhausted, the person will suffer normal damage to his own M.D.C. and/or Hit Points but remains invulnerabile to the other things listed. Additionally, the invulnerable character is also +10 to save vs magic, psionic attacks and Horror Factor.

  Level Eight
  
  Spoiler: Greater Healing

  Range: One character by touch (can not be used on oneself.
  Duration: Instant.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Thirty
  
  A powerful healing spell that can instantly heal external and internal injuries and restore up to 2D4x10 S.D.C. and 6D6 Hit Points, or 1D4 M.D. (only if the latter is a Mega-Damage creature)! The mage may not cast this spell on himself nor give (even temporarily) a character more S.D.C. or Hit Points than he had to begin with
  Spoiler: Lightning Arc

  Range: 100 feet (30.5 m) per level of experience.
  Duration: One melee round per level of experience.
  Damage: 406 +2 M.D. per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: Dodge.
  P.P.E.: Thirty
  
  This is a more powerful version of the Electric Arc spell, pumping more magical energy into the jolt for greater range and damage; point and shoot. +4 to strike targets within 1 00 feet (30.5 m), but only + 1 to strike those at greater distances.
  
  Each lightning blast counts as one melee attack/action and is limited by the character's total number of attacks. This means a character with four attacks per melee round use up two attacks to cast the spell and fire once. This leaves two more electrical attacks that melee round, but in the next three melee rounds the mage in our example can fire up to four times (once for each of his attacks per melee round). In addition, the character may vary or combine attacks. That is to say, a sorcerer with four attacks may elect to fire once, cast another spell and draw and fire a weapon or perform a skill, and so on.
  Spoiler: Luck Curse

  Range: Touch or 10 feet ( 3 m).
  Duration: 24 hours per level of experience.
  Saving Throw: Standard; 12 by spell, 16 by ritual.
  P.P.E.: Forty
  
  The incantation inflicts the victim with bad luck. The character's normal bonuses to strike, parry, dodge, initiative, and roll with punch, are all reduced to zero; no bonuses! Critical strikes do normal damage (except a Natural 20 which always does double damage); a death or knockout/stun punch does only 1D4 damage. Kick attacks have a 01-60% chance of causing the character to trip and fall down (losing initiative and one melee attack). Prowl skill turs into a clumsy roll, making noise every time it is tried. All skills are minus 40%, but only during critical situations. The G.M. can add other minor occurrences of bad luck.
  
  Only a "Remove Curse" invocation can negate the effect of this enchantment
  Spoiler: Power Weapon

  Range: One weapon by touch.
  Duration: Two melee rounds (30 seconds) per level of the spell caster.
  Saving Throw: None.
  P.P.E.: Thirty-Five
  
  This spell temporarily infuses an S.D.C. melee weapon (knife, spear, sword, club, etc.) with great magical energy. For the duration of the spell, the weapon will inflict the Mega-Damage equivalent of the S.D.C. weapon; i.e. a knife that does 1D6 S.D.c. now does 1D6 M.D., or a mace that does 2D6 S.D.C. now does 2D6 M.D., and so on. In the alternative, this spell can be used to increase the damage capability of Mega-Damage melee weapons (Vibro-Blade, etc.) or M.D. magic weapons (rune sword, TW-weapons, etc.) by 25%. So a magical flaming sword that normally does 4D6 M.D. now does 5D6, a Vibro-Blade that does 2D6 now does 4D4 M.D., etc.
  
  Note: This magic does not work on long-range weapons like the bow and arrow, projectile weapons or energy guns. Casting this spell on the same weapon repeatedly has no cumulative effect.

  Spoiler: Ball Lightning

  Range: 60 feet per level of experience
  Duration of Hurled Balls: Temporary
  Duration of Electrical Field: Four melees per level
  Damage: Hurled Balls: 3d6 MD plus 1 MD per level
  Electric Field: 3d6+1d6 MD per level
  Saving Throw: None
  This spell creates three basketball-sized balls of lightning which will hover at the side of the caster. With a simple gesture, the three balls are hurled at their target. The caster must roll a 20 sided die to strike, just as normal, but the balls are +5 to strike.
  An electrical field can be created by placing the ball in a triangular formation four feet apart. This creates an electrical energy field that covers approximately a ten foot area per level of the caster. Anyone who touches the field or tries to pass through it suffers damage. Destroying the field is possible if all three balls are destroyed. Each ball has 20 MDC.
  Spoiler: Circle of Rain

  Range: 60 foot radius per level of experience
  Duration 15 melees per level
  Saving Throw: None
  Through this elemental magic, the caster can create a heavy downpour accompanied by thunder, lightning, and clouds. Anyone in the circle of rain will become soaking wet, chilled, movement slowed by one-third, and the sense of hearing and vision will be impaired (both normal and nightvision), reduced to 30 feet. This magic can be done indoors and outdoors. It inflicts 5d6 damage per melee round to vampires.
  Spoiler: Invisible Wall

  Range: 60 feet away, covers a 10 foot area per level
  Duration: four melees per level
  This elemental magic creates an invisible wall composed of wind and water that cannot be easily penetrated because it continually renews itself; 50 MD pre melee. A Dispel Magic Barriers spell will destroy it in the blink of an eye. Likewise, suffering double MD damage (100 MD) in a single melee will completely destroy it. This spell can be cast up to 60 feet away.

• 
  
  Model Type: USA-G 10
  Class: Laser Resistant Infantry Personnel Assault Unit.
  Crew: One pilot.
  M.D.C. by Location:
  Rail Gun (a.k.a. Boom Gun) - 1 75
  * Head - 290
  * Hands (2) - 1 00 each
  Anns (2) - 270 each
  Legs (2) - 450 each
  Reinforced Pilot's Compartment - 1 50
  ** Main Body - 770
  * A single asterisk indicates a small and difficult target to strike, requiring the attacker to make a "Called Shot," and even then the assailant is -4 to strike.
  ** Depleting the M.D.C. of the main body will shut the power armor down completely, rendering it useless. Note: Laser weapons do half damage to the Glitter Boy!
  
  Speed :
  Running: 60 mph (96 km) maximum. Note that the act of running does tire its operator, but only at 10% of the usual fatigue rate.
  Leaping: The robot legs can leap up to 12feet (3.6 m) high or across. Add 10 feet (3m) with a running start. Jet thruster assisted leaps can hurl the power armor 80 feet (24 m) up or across. If necessary, the thrusters can momentarily hold the G10 aloft as high as 12 feet (3.6 m) off the ground, but only for 1d6x10 seconds. The thrusters are not made for flying.
  Underwater Capabilities: Swimming: The thruster system provides good mobility and control underwater but at a sluggish speed of 15 mph (24 km or 13 knots); same speed on the surface of water. The GB can also walk along the bottom of the sea or lake bed at about 25% of its normal walking/running speed. To fire its Boom Gun underwater it must be able to engage its pylon system into the sea floor, rocky out cropping or other means of firm support. (Note: Sinking the pylons into the hull of an M.D.C. ship or submarine takes several tries, using up 1d4+1 melee actions and signaling those inside that something is hammering its hull. Each pylon attack inflicts 1d4 M.D. and punches a pair of holes into the hull of the vessel.) Without suitable support, the force of the shock wave from the gun will propel the Glitter Boy backwards in a spiral for 1d4x100 yards/meters and cause it to lose initiative and its next 1d4+3 melee actions/attacks. Half this distance and 1d4 lost actions if sunken into the typical soft underwater flooring.
  Maximum Ocean Depth: One mile (1.6 km).
  
  Statistical Data:
  Height: 10 feet, 5 inches (3.1 m).
  Width : 4 feet, 4 inches ( 1.3 m).
  Length : 4 feet (1.2 m).
  Weight: 1.2 tons fully loaded.
  Physical Strength: Equal to Robot P.S. of 30.
  Cargo: Minimal storage space; a one foot (0.3 m) compartment and storage for a rifle, handgun, survival knife and first-aid kit.
  Power System: Nuclear; average energy life is 25 years.
  Black Market Cost: 25 million credits and more for a new, undamaged, fully powered Glitter Boy complete with Boom Gun and ammunition. 15-20 million for a rebuilt GB or without the gun. Rare; poor availability.
  
  Weapon Systems:
  1. RG-14 Rapid Acceleration Electromagnetic Rail Gun (I): The fa
  mous "Boom Gun" is a unique rail gun that can accelerate its flechette style rounds to a speed of Mach 5 and actually creates a sonic boom when fired. The gun is the most powerful personal or vehicular weapon to survive the Great Cataclysm. The weapon is attached to the back and right shoulder of the power armor (it may be reversed for those who are left-handed). When not in use, the gun is flipped back and stored in an upward position. When needed for combat, the Glitter Boy's operator simply reaches back, grasps the handle and pulls forward. The blast is so powerful that without the automatic stabilization system, the Glitter Boy would be thrown to the ground and knocked back 30 feet (9.1m). The automatic stabilization system is a synchronous system of jet thrusters in the back and retractable reinforcement pylons in the lower legs that hold the armor steady and in place. The pylons and the jets fly into action the moment the Boom Gun is fired.
  Primary Purpose: Assault, anti-armor and anti-aircraft.
  Weight: Rail Gun: 867 1bs (390 kg).
  Mega-Damage : One Boom Gun flechette round holds 200 slugs that inflict a massive 3d6x10 M.D. to its target!
  Effects of the Sonic Boom : The power armor suit is specially insulated from the shock waves of its own Boom Gun, however, everyone within 200 feet (61m) will be temporarily deafened (triple that range underwater). Characters without any type of sound/ear protection will be temporarily deafened for 2d4 minutes and are -8 on initiative and -3 to parry and dodge. Characters who are inside environmental body armor, a light M.D. vehicle or power armor will have some protection, but are still temporarily deafened for 1d4 minutes; same penalties apply but for a shorter duration. Each sonic boom adds to the duration of the deafness. Heavy robot vehicles, tanks and most CS military vehicles are sufficiently protected so that the crew and passengers inside hear (and feel) the boom, but do not suffer any penalties. Likewise, Greater Demons, Demon Lords, Elementals and gods are impervious to the deafening blast; their ears ring but they are not deafened. Dragons and similarly powerful beings are affected the same as those inside a light M.D. vehicle (penalties last for 1d4 minutes). Remember, one must be within 200 feet (61m) to be deafened by the sonic boom. The sonic boom also affects the physical surroundings by shaking buildings and shattering S.D.C. windows within a 300 foot radius (91m) of the boom.
  Rate of Fire: Each booming blast counts as one melee attack/action. Bursts and sprays are not possible!
  Maximum Effective Range : 11,000 feet (about 2 miles/3.2 km).
  Payload : 1000 round (shots) auto-feed ammo canister. The Boom Gun can be reloaded by hand, one round at a time by the pilot as necessary, but it takes 15 minutes to reload 40 rounds. A small, extra ammo-drum of 400 rounds may be attached to the hip of the Glitter Boy (it has 30 M.D.C. and requires a Called Shot to be targeted; the attacker is -4 to hit it). The full size ammo-drum can be replaced by a team of Operators with the proper equipment in Id6+2 minutes. Free Quebec has special equipment and trained Reload Teams who can reload an ammo-drum in 45 seconds (or six minutes by hand with a 2-3 man team).
  
  2. Alternative Weapons: Not a viable option 30 years ago, the wealth of new robots and large, robot-sized weapons means the Glitter Boy may, in a pinch, pick up and use any weapon it can get its hands around. This may include large, heavy weapons like rail guns modified to have the trigger guard removed and the trigger enlarged. Each of the Glitter Boy's fingers is roughly the equivalent of three human fingers in thickness, preventing the armored unit from using "man-sized" weapons. Oversized weapons are another story, but they are also uncommon and expensive. Furthermore, most traditional GB pilots would never consider a permanent replacement of the Boom Gun.
  3. Hand to Hand Combat Elite: Glitter Boy. Available only to those who take Power Armor Combat Elite: Glitter Boy (automatic to the Glitter Boy O.C.C.). Those not skilled in "Elite GB Combat" use the Power Armor Basic stats.
  Note: All bonuses are in addition to the pilot's own hand to hand combat training and attribute bonuses. They do not apply to the pilot's physical abilities when the character is outside his power armor.
  
  +2 extra attacks/actions per melee round, in addition to those of the pilot at level one; + 1 additional attack at levels 3, 7, and 11.
  Critical Strike is the same as the pilot's.

  +2 to strike in hand to hand combat.
  +2 to parry in hand to hand combat.
  +2 to dodge.
  + I to disarm.
  +4 to pull punch.
  +3 to roll with impact.
  Punch Damage: 1d4 M.D. on a restrained punch, 1d6 M.D. on a full strength punch.
  Power Punch: 2d6 M.D., but counts as two melee attacks.
  Kick Damage : 2d4 M.D., Power Kick is not possible.
  Running Leap Kick: 4d6 M.D., but counts as three attacks.
  Tear or Pry with Hands (Special): 1d6 M.D.
  Body Block/Ram: 2d4 M.D.
  Full Speed Running Ram: 3d6 M.D., but this attack uses up three melee actions.
  Stomp: 1d6 M.D. ; effective only against objects smaller than three feet (0.9 m) tall.
  Pylon Impalement: 1d6 M.D., not very useful in most combat situations.
  
  4. Special Sensory Systems of Note:
  1. Optical Systems: Full optical systems, including laser targeting, telescopic, passive nightvision (light amplification), thermal-imaging, infrared, ultraviolet, and polarization.
  2. Advanced Laser Targeting: As well as the usual power armor standard features for laser targeting, the Boom Gun is +2 to strike.
  3. Self-Destruct Mechanism: Self-destruct mechanism to prevent the armor and its technology from falling into enemy hands.
  4. Laser Resistant Armor: All Glitter Boys are made from special alloys with a chrome-looking surface that is resistant to laser attacks (half damage).
  5. Other Features: All standard environmental power armor features, plus built-in language translator and depth gauge. See the section on Power Armor in the equipment section of this book.
  
  Standard Power Armor Features:
  2. Radar: Can identify and track up to 72 targets simultaneously at a range of 40 miles (64 km).
  3. Combat Computer: Calculates, stores, and transmits data onto the heads-up display (H.U.D.) of the pilot's helmet. It is tied to the targeting computer.
  4. Targeting Computer: Assists in tracking and identification of enemy targets. Ten mile range (16 km).
  5. Laser Targeting System : Assists in the selection and focusing of specific targets and adds a bonus of +I to strike when using long-range weapons. Does not apply to hand to hand combat or SAMAS.
  6. Radio Communications: Long-range, directional communication system with an effective range of about 500 miles (800 km), as well as a directional, short-range radio. Range is 10 miles (16 km). Plus a built-in loudspeaker; 80 decibels.
  7.Complete Environmental Battle Armor: Suitable for use in all hostile environments, including underwater (500 foot/152m) maximum
  depth unless stated otherwise). Includes the following features:
  • Computer controlled life support system. Internal cooling and temperature control.
  • Artificial air circulation systems, gas filtration, humidifier.
  • Computer controlled, independent oxygen supply and purge system that automatically engages in low oxygen or contaminated air environments. Eight hour oxygen supply.
  • Insulated, high temperature resistant shielding for up to 400 degrees centigrade. Normal fires do no damage. Nuclear, plasma, and magic fires do full damage.

  Spoiler: NG-35 Heavy Laser Pistol

  NG-35 Heavy Laser Pistol (new)
  Northern Gun is known for their heavy, durable infantry weapons, but most laser pistols are typically light, small guns. To appeal to its customer base of macho types and individuals with enhanced strength, an NG design team spearheaded by Robert Edmunds and Phillip A. Compher has created a new high-powered laser pistol. The NG-35 is a big, bulky weapon with good range, good firepower and is still sturdy enough that it can be used just fine as a cudgel. No one will mistake it for a Triax or Wilk’s product, which is how Northern Gun likes it.
  Weight: 4.5 lbs (2 kg).
  Range: 800 feet (244 m).
  Mega-Damage: 3D6 M.D.
  Rate of Fire: Each shot counts as one melee attack.
  Payload: 14 shots, 22 with a long E-Clip.
  Cost: 19,500 credits.
  E Clip(Long) - 5
  Empty -
  
  
  Spoiler: NG-E4 Plasma Ejector

  NG-E4 Plasma Ejector
  The brutal damage and short range of plasma weapons suits the philosophy of Northern Gun well. The E4, conceived by team leaders Frank Loose and Nathan Jacobus, is a man-portable rifle perfect for toasting anything that gets in its sights. The fact that its internal mechanisms bear a suspicious resemblance to the Coalition’s old C-27 Plasma Cannon is a fact NG would rather not draw attention to.
  Weight: Block I: 20 lbs (9 kg). Block II: 16lbs (7.2 kg).
  Range: 1,600 feet (488 m).
  Mega-Damage: 6D6 M.D.

  Spoiler: NG-11S Sawed-Off

  NG-11S Sawed-Off
  A serious shotgun, designed by Martin Schultz and Steven A. Hauser, to compete with similar weapons from Bandito Arms, this .60 caliber smoothbore fires normal shotgun shells, explosive versions, ramjets and even Bandito’s signature BigBore ammo. Its two barrels can be fired at the same time or separately (requires one melee action to reload) and the shotgun is surprisingly light and easy to handle for a Northern Gun weapon, without sacrificing durability.
  Weight: 4 lbs (1.8 kg).
  Range:
  Shotgun shells or slugs: 200 feet (61 m).
  Explosive Shells: 300 feet (91.5 m) and APRJ shells: 500 feet (152 m).
  Mega-Damage: Varies with ammo type.

  Payload: Two shots. Reloading the gun takes three melee actions.
  Cost: 6,000 credits. Explosive Shells cost 150 credits apiece; APRJ rounds cost 200 credits each at most places; poor availability and rising prices

  Urban Warrior -
  Padded Environmental Body Armor
  A lightweight body armor that has been popular with adventurers
  and many city law enforcement officers for over a decade. This armor
  is a full body suit with special flexible padding and strategic placement
  of light metal plates. Usually comes in white, light grey, light green,
  and tan colors.
  M.D.C. by Location:
  Main body: 50

  Spoiler: NG-J32 Wild Coyote Jet Pack

  NG-J32 Wild Coyote Jet Pack A small, personal jet pack capable of sustained flight, the Wild Coyote is the newest in a line of NG personal flying devices. This one is the most compact and designed for short flights, boarding ships, and commando-style raids. It comes as a backpack that connects to mountings in non-environmental body armor, EBA and light power armor suits. It is not suitable for anyone not wearing armor. The control unit is linked to the communication system of the body armor or helmet and responds to verbal commands or spoken codes. It can also be programmed to respond to codes typed in on a mini wrist computer.
  Crew: One armored rider.
  Maximum Speed: 80 mph (128 km).
  Maximum Range (Nuclear): Effectively unlimited, although any version of the pack may overheat if used continuously for more than four hours (01-40%). Overheating will burn out the internal systems, destroying the machine. The jet pack should be allowed to cool for two hours after every two or three hours of continuous use. For power armors, the Wild Coyote can be wired to draw upon the power supply of the armor itself for unlimited flight capabilities and range. However, 96% of those who use a jet pack require it to be a separate removable, even disposable, piece of equipment to be used as necessary, not a permanent part of the armor.
  Maximum Altitude: 900 feet (274 m).
  Size: 2.4 feet (0.73 m), 40 lbs (18 kg).
  M.D.C. Main Body of Jet Pack: 35.
  Weapons: None are built into the jet pack, but the flyer can wield normal handguns and rifles in flight.

  Spoiler: Sense Psychic and Magic Energy

  Sense Psychic and Magic Energy: Basically identical to the Psi-Stalker, although not quite as developed. Like a bloodhound smelling a familiar scent, the Psi-Hound can detect the presence of psychic energy; specifically fellow psychics (I.S.P.) and magic energy (P.P.E. used in spell casting, in magic devices and the large energy reserves in practitioners and creatures of magic; 80 or more points). The ability is constant and automatic, just like the ability to see and smell. Dog Boys can sense whenever a psionic ability is used within the range of sensitivity. If the energy is being continually expended, like a series of magic or psionic attacks, or is of a duration/effect longer than one melee round (15 seconds), the Dog Boy can trace it to the source (i.e. the character or creature using the psionics or magic) with relative ease. Several psionic or magic characters using their powers in the same general area will also lead the canine to that location, but he will not be able to discern and remember (recognize) any of their psychic scents at a later time. Several psionic or magic characters using their powers over a large, scattered area of the Dog Boy's sensing range will confuse the senses. The mutant canine will be able to tell that there are several emanations and have a fair idea of which direction most are located, but will only be able to accurately follow the most powerful emanations of psychic energy. Base Skill: 40% +5% per level of experience (roll once every melee round). Reduce by half when multiple sources are scattered throughout the sensing range.
  
  Range: Sensitivity to psionic and magic powers in use is 400 feet (122 m) +50 feet (15 m) per level of experience. Roll percentile dice every 1 000 feet (305 m) to see if the hunter is still on the trail. A failed roll means the scent is lost. Sensitivity to a fellow psychic or magic practitioner not using his powers is 50 feet ( 1 5.2 m) +5 feet (1.5 m) per level of experience.
  
  I.S.P.: None, automatic ability
  Duration: Automatic
  Skill: 85% (+5%) [Halved with scattered sources in area]
  Range: 750ft (+50ft lvl)
  
  
  Spoiler: Recognize Psychic Scent

  Recognize Psychic Scent: A psychic scent is the particular signature that emanates from a specific psychic, mage or monster every time he/it uses one of its psionic powers or casts magic. The emanation from each individual is unique and distinct, like a psychic fingerprint.
  
  Unfortunately, the Dog Boy's ability to sense and recognize these psychic signatures is less developed than the Psi-Stalker's. Still, the mutant canines may recognize the general type of creature (human, Burster, Simvan, Psi-Stalker, etc.), and even the psi-scent of specific individuals that the Dog Boy has encountered on numerous occasions and knows well. Base Skill: 10% +4% per level of experience to recognize the general psychic scent of a particular race or species of mortal monster, animal (familiar) or D-Bee. (Also see #3, Sense Supernatural Beings, below.) 8% +2% per level of experience to recognize a specific individual; + 10% bonus if the mutant has a bit of hair, skin, blood, or an article of recently worn clothing (4 hours or less) and + 10% if it is somebody or something the Dog Boy has encountered in the past and knows well. Bonuses are accumulative. Range: 50 feet ( 1 5.2 m) +5 feet (1.5 m) per level of experience. Duration: Automatic and constant.
  I.S.P. : None, an automatic ability like our own sense of smell.
  Duration: Constant
  Skill: 48% (+4%)
  Range: 85ft (+5ft lvl)
  
  
  Spoiler: Sense Supernatural Beings

  Sense Supernatural Beings: Identical in basic function and principle to the ability Sense Psychic and Magic Energy, described in number one, above, except the mutant dog is much more sensitive to the very distinctive psychic scent of the supernatural. Base Skill: 62% +2% per level of experience to identify the specific type/race of supernatural beings, such as alien intelligences, gods, demigods, demons, and vampires, as well as creatures of magic such as Faeries and dragons. Dog Boys can feel - almost taste - magic in the air. This means they can recognize practitioners and creatures of magic by the large amount of P.P.E. they possess, regardless of how the enemy may disguise himself. Likewise, they can sense the magical power supply or energy reserve in many magic items, including amulets, talismans and Techno-Wizard items. Dog Boys can also sense the location of invisible wizards or creatures of magic, as well as tell if they are approaching a ley line. This ability can also detect whether a mortal is possessed by a supernatural being. Base Skill at Tracking by Scent: 35% +5% per level of experience when the creature is not using magic or psionic powers or the creature has little or no magic powers or psionics like a Brodkil or Gargoyle and most sub-demons. A whopping 70% +3% per level of experience when a supernatural being is using psionic powers or magic, and when the being is a Demon Lord, Alien Intelligence, god or dragon, because they possess so much magic energy (hundreds or thousands of P.P.E. points) that the Dog Boy can track them with ease even when they are not casting magic. Range: 100 feet (30.5 m) per level of experience; increase to 1000 feet (305 m) +100 feet per level of experience to track when magic is in use/being cast. The range is a tremendous 1000 feet (305 m) per level of experience to sense and track Demon Lords, gods and other inhuman beings powerful with magic and/or psionics whether they are using magic or not.
  Duration: Automatic and constant.
  I.S.P. : None, automatic.
  
  Note: Close proximity to ley lines (within a mile/1.6 km) disrupts and blurs the psychic senses (reduce range and skill performance by halt) and completely obliterates them when on/within a ley line.
  Duration: Constant

• 
  Daisy was a Feral from the coalition. Along with her mate, Ace, who was an accomplished member. After he grew tired of their children being taken, they fled.
  
  Finding sanctuary with other Mutant animals in a makeshift city, that was often a stop for mercenary resupplies. They decided on a more peaceful life, so Ace took his learned knowledge of mechanics from the Coalition, and applied and expanded on them to make a living. More or less operating a junkyard to help repair vehicles of passing Companies.
  
  Given the nature of the town, there was as much scrap left behind by merc who brought ruined gear or bought new ones. And underneath it all Ace found the ruined wreckage of a Glitter Boy.
  
  Now Ace had no such dreams of grandeur, to him it was like a hobby project, how one might find and old junker car and work to fix it up. So such was his magnum opus. At best, they would be able to sell it and move away to a better place, and at worst it would be a pretty statue for their yard.
  
  But over the years, word did get out. That a dog boy was working on something he should not have. The psi pack eventually hunted them down and descended with fury.
  
  Ace did his best to fight them off, to give his mate time to flee, but was ultimately unsuccessful. But he, at least, had given Daisy enough time to get in the glitter boy. While it took her moments to figure out how to work it, those moments cost Ace's life. And he was slain by the packs vibroblades. Just as they would fall to the deafening storm of flechettes that followed in her rage.
  
  With her peaceful life ravaged, there was nothing left for her here. Especially that they would come looking for her. So Daisy joined a passing mercenary company. She would continue the work her mate put into his passion project, and seek to one day fulfill their dream of finding a safe and peaceful place to live, and the money to not have to worry about the coalition again. As well to have the family that she knew he would have wanted.

  Spoiler: Foxy Form!

  "And I've always wondered. Someday, maybe, wouldn't it be neat to have a beast-human form? Hey, don't laugh! IT COULD HAPPEN! Or maybe a chibi-form? Who wouldn't like a cute little cuddly canine to look at, right? That would be even cooler!" It has happened! "Woooo!" (19 July 2020!)

  Spoiler: More Pictures of Snowfall

  "Hey! I'm Snowfall. Welcome my little gallery! Fox Spirits? We're not humans at all but immortal animal spirits that can take on multiple forms. Talk about nifty, huh?
  
  "Here I am in my fox form back during the feudal years of Japan. Wait. Is that a Rift I'm looking at? I love Rifts! Whooo! Time to go see and jump into it! You never know what's on the other side!

  "This here's a nice video of Red Foxes in action (courtesy of the Smithsonian)!
  
  
  "We Fox Spirits (or Kitsune if you like our Japanese name) can instantaneously change to a single human form. We can alter the age of that form too, so when I want to appear young I can look like this...

  "Thanks for visiting! See you around!"
  
  Race: Fox Spirit (Kitsune using Fox Spirit R.C.C. from Mystic China, page 54).
  Alignment: Scrupulous (Keep in mind Kitsune do not see morality the same way humans do. Sometimes he leans strongly toward Principled, and other times, Unprincipled).
  Disposition: Depends! Typically he is wise, young-spirited, animated, fun-loving, good-natured, and respectful of all life. On one side (yin), he can be kind-hearted, gentle, and compassionate even with evil creatures. But flip a switch (yang) and he's daring and brave, willing to risk himself while fighting unfairly if it means succeeding toward the greater good. Just don't get him near an open Rift - his curiosity is so great for them he is likely to leap in headfirst! =) I think he is one part Wang Chi and one part Egg Shen (from "Big Trouble in Little China")! =)
  Likes: Fantastic tales, exploring, fresh rice, fried tofu, warm sake, sharing, exercising.
  Dislikes: No rice, burnt tofu, cold sake, self-important people with no compassion.
  Goals: To gain a 4th form (fox + human, preferably cute and chibi-like), to find rare items lost to evil and return them to their proper hosts, to share with others the beauty and majesty of the Megaverse preferably by acting as a tour guide! =)
  Age: 753 years old, give or take a few years (entered the universe during Japan's Feudal age).
  Gender: Male
  Appearance: Short, handsome, and extremely fit. Carries himself in a humble, easygoing manner.
  Height (in human form): 5 feet, 0 inches (152 cm).
  Weight (in human form): 98 pounds (44.5 kg)
  Hair: When young, autumn-brown and black. When old, winter-white with medium-sized beard. Fur is white in fox and Kitsune forms.
  Eyes: Luminous brown, "nice," with an ageless quality to them.
  Other features: There is a wiry leanness to him. His physique makes it easy to underestimate him. His tattoos (which he often keeps under his robes but within easy touching reach) are true works of art, colorful and breathtaking.

  Fox Spirit Natural Abilities (Page 54 in Mystic China)
  All Fox Spirits can magically transform themselves, instantly, from fox to human, or to an entity of Pure Positive Chi. Each transformation costs a single point of Chi. While this is normally not a problem, a Fox Spirit drained of all Chi, or infected with Negative Chi, will be unable to transform.
  Fox Form: Chi is concealed while in this form. +3 to Dodge. Cannot speak human tongues but can see and talk with any ghosts, demons, dragons, spirits, or other entities of Pure Chi.
  Human Form: Very good-looking. Short, wiry, and stout. Can change the age of the form but not while in the form from teenager to centenarian or anything in between.
  Kitsune Form (Werefox - New as of 19 July 2020!): A combination of Fox Form and Human forms. Able to use most tools and weapons that he could in his 5-foot tall human form. Possesses most of his fox senses (especially smell and hearing). Displays some foxlike agility. +1 to Perception and Dodge. Can speak with people and animals. Has "low light" vision (can see twice as far in low light, but not darkness). About 3 feet tall, white fur, with 7 bushy tails. A little hobbit-like in stature. Oh, and cute. =)
  Pure Positive Chi Form: Intangible, invisible, but vulnerable to Chi-based attacks. Detectable by the Chi-sensitive, psychics, dog boys, dragons, Shifters, and the like.
  
  In all forms, the Fox Spirit always has supernatural senses and is able to automatically detect Chi and Magic. Negative Chi can be sensed from 100 feet. Magic at 200 feet, basically the same as the spell or psychic ability (RUE, page 199. Sense Magic. Works like a Geiger counter. Can tell if a person or object is enchanted or under a magic spell, is in the process of invoking magic, or if magic is being used in the range area.)
  
  CAMPAIGN NOTES PER SHERWOOD
  
  Spoiler: Fox Spirits Matter!

  (OOC 24 June 2020)
  Me: Does Snowfall benefit from magical items while in non-human forms? I.e. Can he activate his Atlantean Communications Crystal and All-Seeing Helm in Human form and still benefit from them in Fox and Cloud form or is he just wasting P.P.E. while in those forms?
  
  Sherwood: Let me say that I will let you use the various magic items in fox form, but not in your cloud one, needing a physical body to be able to interact with the item in question.
  
  Me: Who can Snowfall communicate to while in Fox Form? As an animal, I would think Daisy and Zephiron, but not Terra or Shaona?
  Me: I get the feeling he can only communicate with other spirits while in Cloud form? So that's Zephiron only?
  Sherwood: Any telepathic or magic-based communication would work, but otherwise, you are stuck with only basic communication with Daisy (later, Sherwood added Zeph because I explained Zeph is a dragon and such creatures are mentioned as being able to interact with spirits in cloud form).
  
  Fox Spirit Advancement Bonuses: In addition to any hand to hand combat skill and/or ancient weapon proficiencies (W.P.).
  1st - Three attacks per melee round, +2 to dodge, +2 to roll with punch, +2 to backflip, and is able to perform Leap Attack (see the video? =) ).
  2nd - Add 1d6 to Chi and +1 to save vs. horror factor.
  3rd - +1 to roll with punch. Add one Chi Mastery ability (House rule: +1 to Initiative, Strike, and damage).
  4th - +1 to backflip, +1d6 to Speed, +1d6 to Chi.
  5th - Add one additional Zenjoriki Power (House rule: +1 to Parry, Dodge, and Roll).
  6th - +1 to dodge, +1d6 to Chi.
  7th - +1 to strike, add one Chi Mastery ability (House rule: +1 to Initiative, Strike, and damage).
  8th - +1d6 to Chi, add one additional secondary skill.
  9th - Add one additional Zenjoriki Power (House rule: +1 to Initiative, Strike, and damage).
  10th - +2d6 to Speed.
  11th - +1 to backflip, add one Chi Mastery ability (House rule: +1 to Initiative, Strike, and damage).
  12th - +1 to roll with punch, +1d6 to Chi.
  13th - Add one additional Zenjoriki Power (House rule: +1 to Initiative, Strike, and damage).
  14th - Double existing Chi (House rule: +1 to Parry, Dodge, and Roll).
  15th - Select one additional secondary skill and add one Chi Mastery ability (House rule: +1 to Initiative, Strike, and damage).
  
  Fox Spirit Human Martial Art Abilities: While Fox Spirits do not learn martial arts in the way of normal humans, they all have a natural instinct for combat that is quick, agile, and very flexible, and that could be called the "Art of the Fox."
  In addition, the character starts out with the following Chi and Zenjoriki Powers: Dragon Chi, and any other three Positive Chi Mastery Abilities and/or Positive or Negative Chi Mastery Abilities and one Zenjoriki Power. A Fox Spirit can never learn any pure Negative Chi Mastery Abilities.
  CAMPAIGN NOTE: Per an agreement between Sherwood and I, Snowfall can take on these beginning powers at 1st level, but only those. He gains combat bonuses like any other character instead of new powers.
  
  R.C.C. Skills: While Fox Spirits have no skills as a human would define them, the character does have a natural "ear" for languages. In addition to those listened here, the character can pick up a new language after just 2D6 days of living with/listening to native speakers (80% proficiency). When it comes to dialects, the Fox Spirit can usually learn a new version of a known language within one day (4D6 hours; 75% proficiency).
  
  Martial Art Powers (See Ninjas & Superspies, page 118, or Mystic China, page 152)
  Basic Chi abilities (all characters who have at least one Chi power gain these abilities)
  1. Chi Awareness - detects level and type of Chi in others. Similar to the Fox Spirit's natural ability but more precise. 40 foot range.
  2. Chi Relaxation - Character can instantly calm their mind. Can relax in the face of danger, resist insanity, drug addiction, etc. Can go to sleep instantly.
  3. Defend against Chi Attacks - (NOTE: Sherwood does not have Chi combat in his game.)
  
  Chi Powers (the first two powers are in Ninjas & Superspies, page 118, the latter two are in Mystic China, page 152)
  1. Dragon Chi - The ability to tap into the natural Chi of an area. Chi drawn this way must be used in the same round it is gained.
  2. Chi-atsu - Can heal self or others of hit point/S.D.C. damage. Each point of Chi-atsu Chi heals 1 Hit Point, 10 S.D.C., and gives comatose characters another extra chance to recover.
  3. Heal the Mind - Cures many mental illnesses. Subject must fail a save vs. psionic attack/insanity with no M.E. bonus. Can temporarily stop the usual negative effects from insanity. Can permanently heal a character driven insane by outside influence. Can restore mind to proper state, eliminating mind control, and psionic manipulation. Cannot be used on self.
  4. Radiate Positive Chi - Character emits sunlight by spending Chi. Can emit Chi from their eyes (Cost: 2 Chi/round. 50 foot range, brighter than car headlights) or body (4 Chi/round in 30 foot radius) or can also dispel Negative Chi in area (current level of Negative Chi plus 4 points of Positive Chi/round). Note to self: Remember to use Dragon Chi! =)
  
  Zenjoriki Power (Ninjas and Superspies, page 124)
  Karumi-jutsu - Reduce own body weight by 85% (Snowfall in human form will weigh about 15 pounds). Only functions when invoked. No cost. Indefinite duration. Cannot be used in combat as total concentration is required.
  1. Can fall from up to 2,000 feet without suffering more than 2d4 S.D.C. damage (Snowfall is a Voyager and thus a Mega-damage being).
  2. Can jump 10 times the character's normal distance. The average can jump 50 feet. Snowfall is a Fox Spirit with Tumbling, Acrobatics, Gymnastics, and Supernatural Strength.
  3. The character can climb any surface without fear of failure/falling.
  4. The character can walk across delicate surfaces or extremely fragile bridges without fear of collapse. Likewise, the character can walk on objects as delicate as china teacups without causing damage or disturbance.

  Spoiler: Leveling Note from Sherwood

  House Rule from Sherwood: Since you are supposed to be able to add more Tattoos as you level up, I don't want to handcuff your character if you are stuck somewhere and are unable to get away for long enough to find someone capable of applying a new set to you. So, what we'll do is say you already have many more tats than on your sheet that are dormant, and as you gain in strength, they activate and become useable. That way you can level up normally.
  
  Tattoo Magic (Page 142, Secrets of the Atlanteans) Format = Effect(s). P.P.E. cost with range for duration. "Tattoo design". "Energized" means mixed with Power Matrix Tattoo for double duration.
  
  
  Spoiler: Tattoo Magic Note from Sherwood

  "I am thinking that the nature of the tattoos prohibit the user from being able to power the tats by getting PPE from other people. But, that being said, I will allow the swapping of the powers and that you can benefit from the PPE being offered up freely from a willing host. I do not expect that you would be wanting to try a sacrifice of an unwilling donor."

  Spoiler: A quote from a 17th Century Fencer

  “Some rely upon the spirit alone, which is a very dangerous concept, saying that courage and strength is all that is needed and that in duels and altercations there is no place for the observance of tempo and measure, which are merely subtleties and worthless outside of the salle. In order to prove this charming viewpoint they quickly cite the example of some master of arms who was killed by a simpleton. These people, who have such strange ideas inside their heads, deserve to be pitied more than they merit a response.
  
  Courage and strength are natural gifts but it is easy to be equal to them. Whoever has a sense of honour will never be timid with shame and it is not necessary to have the arm of Rodomonte to reach your enemy’s vital organs.
  
  If two people have to fight and one of them is weaker, according to these people he would not have any chance, a completely false idea. If a rough, strong man with no imaginable notion of how to conduct himself in attack were to arrive and fight with a sword and dagger against someone weaker but experienced in fencing, you would see who would be left dead in the field.
  
  Understanding tempo and measure and knowing how to apply them is no mere subtlety. They are precise, dependable principles; nor do they have to be promoted with fine discourses and mellifluous words, they can be demonstrated with actions.
  
  The example of a fencer killed by a simpleton is ridiculous. Since it happens only rarely, as if by a miracle, it is always recounted, whereas no-one speaks of those killed by fencers because it is an ordinary, unsurprising occurrence.”

  Melee Weapons and related items (with Snowfall's commentaries inside the spoilers).
  Fragarach, the sword of Truth! Or as Snowy has named it for embarrassing him, "The Fraggle Rock Sword!"
  
  Spoiler: Fragarach, Mannanan Mac Lir's sword of Truth

  
  (Image credit: Unknown! Google can't find it. If you find it, let me know so I can give credit?)
  
  Looking over the swords, the first looks to be a Roman Gladius, but a closer look shows that it is covered in Celtic runes, marking it as having an Irish or Scottish origin. Like other blades of this design, it is a heavy weapon that is good for chopping and thrusting, but lacking the same finesse as a lighter blade.
  
  Looking at the gladius first, there is an inscription on the blade written in old Celtic of just one word: Truth. It does not take Zephiron long to be able to remember a hint of lore, telling you that this blade is Fragarach, the Sword of Manannán Mac lir, one of gods of the Tuatha De Danan of the Celtic pantheon. This blade has served many great heroes over the years, and besides having the traits of a lesser rune weapon, Fragarach has one other unique ability: When the blade is pressed against the neck of a person, demon or god, they cannot tell a lie.
  
  In addition to its earlier posted ability of preventing someone of telling a lie, it will do 5d6 MD in a melee strike, provides a +1 to all Saving Throws, and it is semi-intelligent and is able to communicate with its wielder with feelings and emotions.
  NOTE: Snowfall has added a 6D6 M.D. Medium Lightning Rune to Fragrach (be careful when touching it to someone's neck!).
  
  Tai Chi Sword - Demon Fighter (Rifts: China 2, page 112). Looks like a plain, aged sword with a red tassel and beautifully-brown wooden sheath.

  Special Abilities: The blade never dulls and is indestructible by fire and has 300 MD.C. (damage occurs only when someone is deliberately trying to destroy the blade). Note: May also come in the form of a small axe, battle axe, or spear. Enchantment and abilities last until the weapon is destroyed.
  Cost: 25,000 credits.

  Spoiler: Dragon Rod

  "Oh, my beloved 'Tatsu Blaster'! My favorite, most-coolest, baddest, awesomest Dragon Cannon I ever found and was allowed to keep! The Oni Big Bad at the foot of Mount Fuji who had opened the golden treasure chest everyone was after thought he had us all done in, and he would have too except he didn't know that the Dragon Rod inside wasn't evilly-aligned. Well, I knew it wasn't evil! We messengers of Inari have to know our stuff! So when he pulled the trigger and the Rod's Wind Gust blew the 'Dragon Cannon' from his hands into mine, you can bet your last bottle of sake I used it on the Big Bad! *winks* I even got the kill shot on him too... That was a really really good day!"

  Rod of Weather Control (A Sherwood original) - Greater Rune Weapon
  
  Spoiler: Rod of Weather Control

  
  (Image credit: Wattpad)
  
  Three times a day, it can cast the following spells as a 8th level caster:
  Thunderclap
  Armor of Ithan
  Breathe without Air
  Fly
  Call Lightning
  Wind Rush
  Lightning Arc
  Wall of Wind
  Desiccate the Supernatural
  Summon Fog
  Calm Storms
  Summon and Control Rain
  Summon and Control Storm
  
  It has the ability to be used as a melee weapon, inflicting 4d6 MD per thwack (NOTE: Snowfall added a Large Electrical Melee Rune for an additional 1D4x10+10 per thwack + see below), and can hurl lightning bolts that do 2d6 MD per level of the wielder (2,000 foot range). Cost of the Rod is 40,000,000 (from Moloch, Lord Brazamal's merchant buddy who was very good to us!).
  
  The Rod is good aligned, so when the former owner was turned into the Master Vampire, he was unable to wield it anymore and therefore had to set it aside. From this point, the history becomes a bit murky, as the Rod is passed on from owner to owner for many years. When Moloch came into possession of it, he was able to recognize it as a potent rune weapon where its current wielder did not, and was able to make his purchase on the cheap. He has held onto the weapon for many years, knowing that it is just too expensive for the typical user to be able to buy.
  
  Due to the alignment issues for the former owner, it is suspected by Moloch that the weapon does double damage to creatures of darkness (demons, vampires, et cetra) with a successful melee strike, but has never been in a position to be able to test his theory. He is not sure if the extra damage (if any) would also apply to the ranged lightning bolts it can throw.
  
  Also, per Sherwood concerning how the lightning bolts work (I use Snowfall's Strike bonus + W.P. Rune Weapons):
  

  Yes, you (or in this case, me) roll a d20 for a to-hit, and the target has the option to try and dodge... Critical strikes are possible for the extra damage.

  Spoiler: TW Naut'Yll Sonic Rifle

  "So how many times do you have to get blasted by an underwater goon with a rifle before you start imagining what it would feel like to blast him back with it? Well, I was way past that point when suddenly this dolphin swims up and slams her snout right on the guy's bum, which makes him drop the rifle! You should have seen the look on his face when I snapped my bonds (he thought I was just another human slave), grabbed his rifle, and returned the favor! Boy, if I could have high-fived that dolphin, you know I would have! But maybe she would have high-fived me back because my undercover 'slave group' and I rescued her pod from the Horune pirates with the help of that very rifle!"
  
  (Looks kind of like this.)
  
  (Image credit: projects.inklesspen.com)
  
  This is a rifle version of the Techno-Wizard Sonic Wand with greater range and number of shots. In this case, the weapon can be charged and ready to be used by anybody. Like a regular rifle, the shooter simply aims and fires. However, only a Techno-Wizard, other practitioner of magic or psychic can recharge the weapon.
  Weight: 6 lbs (2.7 kg)
  Mega-Damage: 5D6 MD. per blast or stun.
  Stun Damage: First victims get to save vs. magic; 14 or higher. Only those who fail to save suffer the following. 3d6 S.D.C. damage, of which 2d4 actually passes through body and power armor to affect the character inside! Those stunned are -6 to strike, parry and dodge. Speed and attacks per melee are also reduced by half. Penalties last for 1D4 melee rounds.
  Range: 2,000 feet (610 m)
  Payload: 30 sonic blasts and 20 sonic stuns. 60 P.P.E. or 120 I.S.P. are required to recharge the weapon. 200 P.P.E. to make it.
  Cost: 80,000 credits, but never sold or traded by Naut'Yll; rare. Not for sale to outsiders, but capture weapons may be available from the Black Market, Atlantis, pirates and sailors.
  Note: The magic rifle has 100 M.D.C. points and is very durable and never jams.
  
  AT-23 Police Stun Rifle (from Rifts Japan, page 123)
  
  Spoiler: AT-23 Police Stun Rifle

  "What can I say? It looks so good it's 'stunning'!" (Dann here: No picture available on Google so you'll have to take my word on it. =) )
  
  The AT-23 stun rifle is standard issue for the police in the Republic of Japan. In fact, it was specifically designed for the police force in dealing with human criminals, riot control, and augmented humans. The stun rifle, like the neural stick, offers the police a non-lethal alternative to subduing lawbreakers. The rifles fires an electrical charge that temporarily short-circuits the nervous system when it strikes. There is a chance of rendering an unarmored person unconscious, but most victims remain conscious, with impaired movement.
  The stun rifle does inflict some measure of physical damage, but far less than conventional weapons. It also has five settings so that it can be appropriately adjusted for the best response to the needs of the situation. For example, the lowest stun setting can be used on children, the second on the elderly and young teenagers, the third on adults, while the highest are reserved for juicers, crazies, mutants and supernatural creatures.
  The weapon comes standard with telescopic, passive night-vision scope and laser targeting.
  Weight: 8 lbs (3.6 kg)
  Physical damage:
  Setting One: 1d6 S.D.C.; can be used against children, pregnant women, and the very weak/injured/elderly.
  Setting Two: 2d6 S.D.C.; can be used against the elderly, young teenagers, adults in poor to average physical condition, and small to medium-sized animals like dogs and monkeys.
  Setting Three: 3d6 S.D.C.; suggested for use against adults in good to excellent physical condition.
  Setting Four: 6d6 S.D.C.; suggested for use against adults in superior physical condition, those high on the effects of drugs, juicers, crazies, partially reconstructed borgs, mutants, and non-humans as well as large animals like horses, cattle, wolves, tigers, etc.
  Setting Five (Maximum level): 1D6 M.D.; used only against juicers, crazies, partially reconstructed borgs, full conversion borgs, monsters, and non-humans.
  Stun Damage: At the correct setting, most victims shot by the stun rifle will suffer the same type of damage and effects. In all cases, the character must roll to save vs non-lethal poison/attack and needs a 16 or higher to save (children and small animals need an 18 or higher to save). A successful save means the victim loses action from the jolt and takes damage, but is otherwise unimpaired.
  A failed roll to save means the character is stunned: -9 on initiative, -7 to strike, parry, and dodge, and reduce speed, actions, and skill performance by half. The character must save each time he or she is struck.
  Stun Duration: 2D4 rounds. The durations and penalties are increased, 2D4 rounds for every blast that hits. There is also a cumulative chance of 15% that each subsequent stun blast will render the character unconscious for 1D4 minutes. This means the second has a 15% chance of knocking the victim out, the third hit 30%, fourth 45% and so on.
  Limitations: If the setting is too low, the stun blast will have no to little effect. Characters are +4 to save for each level the blast was too low. For example, an adult in excellent physical condition shot on setting one is +8 to save while a Juicer shot at setting one would be +16 to save! if the setting is too high, the character suffers greater, potentially lethal, damage and is +15% more likely to lose consciousness. Obviously an M.D. blast will atomize an S.D.C. character. The police use this weapon very judiciously and with extreme caution.
  The weapon is ineffective against environmental M.D.C. body armor, power armor, and full conversion borgs, but is effective against Dog Pack armor and half suits, or body armor without a helmet (not fully environmental without the helmet attach).
  Partially reconstructed borgs, juicers and crazies are only vulnerable to settings 4 and 5, but even then are +1 to save.
  Full conversion borgs can be affected at the maximum setting of 5, but are +4 to save, and the penalties and duration are half.
  No effect against robots, androids, vampires, and the most powerful supernatural beings and creatures of magic. However, lesser demons and young supernatural beings can be affected by setting number 5, but are +3 to save.
  Rate of Fire: Single shot; semi-automatic, best for aimd shots.
  Maximum Effective Range: 800 feet (224 m).
  Payload: 20 shots per standard E-clip. Has 3 E-clips.
  Cost: 25,000 credits, 35,000 on the Black Market (fairly rare).
  Note: Available only to the police and military (used by Military Police and Special Forces). There is no H-Brand copy simply because the manufacturer doesn't see a big market for the item.

  Rune Shield: "Athena's Hope"
  
  Spoiler: Athena's Hope

  
  (Image credit: Petar Doychev at ArtStation.com)
  
  A rune shield created by Hephaestus, Greek god of blacksmiths. Indestructible, has four spell powers (cast at level 6), adds +1 to all Saving Throws. aspída (Greek word for "shield")
  
  Choose four invocation spells, can cast 4 total spells per day, levels 1-6, at 6th level ability, in any combination.
  1. Chromatic Protection
  2. Energy Field
  3. Impervious to Energy
  4. Targeted Deflection
  
  Per Sherwood
  

  The shields are all indestructible and can be used to try and parry rail guns or energy blasts at a -8 to the roll but it is a standard roll for melee attacks. Any of these attacks do no damage to you, unless it is an AoE attack, then you will still take some damage from it (half damage).
  
  Armor suits have a total of 400 MDC to each of them, and the suits all self-repair themselves at a rate of 4d6 MD per hour. It is all lightweight but it is not environmental armor that is totally sealed.

  
  

  The shields are totally invulnerable to damage, and yes, they will add the +1 to saving throw bonuses. Considering that the rune weapons in the Atlantis book show a list of powers, I will be adding to them.
  
  You can pick either power set:
  Cast elemental magic (Defensive spells only; after all, this is armor or shield we are talking about). Such rune armor will be able to cast four elemental spells per day. All four spells will be of the same elemental force (water, earth, air, or fire). The weapon will know only four spells, but may cast them in any combination. Spell selection is limited to levels 1-6 and are equal in power to a sixth level warlock. I will allow you to pick the spell you wish to have your equipment piece be able to cast from that list.
  
  Or:
  
  Healing abilities. Heal wounds: 2D6 hit points and 2D6 S.D.C. or 2D6 M.D.C. if a mega-damage creature. Healing can be performed six times per 24 hour period. Plus remove curse: a 56% chance of success, four times daily. Turn 4D6 dead: a 55% chance of success, four times daily, duration is four hours. Animate & command 2D6 dead: a 64% chance of success, four times daily, duration is four hours.

  
  

  The shield won't automatically do this; you still have to make a Parry roll. But if you succeed in doing so, you will not take full damage from the blast of whatever it was since the shield takes no damage from attacks.

  
  

  As long as you can get your shield into position to block it with a parry roll, it will provide you with protection from just about every AoE attack out there.

  
  

  The book says 'elemental spells', but I don't see very many defensive spells in the elemental spell list, so I will once more use my awe-inspiring powers as storyteller to change that to any invocation spell of level 1-6, just so long as it is a defense spell, like Armor Of Ithan or Impervious to Fire.

  
  

  It will be a Strike roll vs. a Parry roll. If you fail your roll, you take full damage since you did not make your parry. If you make the parry, you will then take 1/2 damage from the AoE shot. Against a direct fire weapon like a laser rifle or rail gun, it is a full defense and you take no damage.

  
  

  Hmm. On further pondering, I will say yes, you can use other spells just so long as they are not attack/damage dealing spells. So Blinding Flash from a shield would work, or something like Multiple Image on a suit of armor.

A gift from the Fox Spirit's elders, this one piece of clothing transforms as the character changes into different forms. In human form it will appear as a human garment (although the Fox Spirit can control whether it will appear in any state ranging from perfectly new to tattered with age). When in Fox Form, the garment becomes just a few threads invisibly woven into the character's fur. When in Pure Positive Chi form, the garment travels along as an item with three points of Positive Chi.
  The player character should describe the garment's color and appearance before putting it into play. While it is magical, it is not indestructible, but it can be washed and patched.
  
  This, but in red.

  Nexus Knight Helm of All Seeing (Book of Magic, page 319)
  
  Spoiler: Nexus Knight Helm of All Seeing

  *Dons his helmet* "Sir Looks-A-Lot here! At your service and your family's! Okay, so I'm not really a knight, but after a few months of scampering all over England using my delivering skills and administering aid to a few people here and there so they didn't die before their natural time was up, one of their knights gave me his magical helmet in reward. Heck, I didn't do anything special! Any Celestial fox in service to Inari would have done it. Really! Sure is a wonderful helmet though!"
  
  This TW device looks like an ordinary helmet, except that it has a large binocular-like pair of protruding sockets in place of the eye slit.
  Magic Powers: The wearer can See the Invisible, See Aura, see infrared light, see strong heat radiation same as a thermo-imager, detect magic concealment, and recognize illusions!
  Duration/Payload: 5 minutes/level.
  P.P.E. Activation cost: 12 P.P.E. (or 24 I.S.P.) into the helm.
  Cost: 250,000 credits. Rare even in England. Most common among Mrrlyn's minions and the Knights of Camelot.
  
  Speed Fetish (Book of Magic, page 304)
  
  Spoiler: Speed Fetish

  "If you want a present from somebody, wait for a holiday. If you want a real gift, do something nice for the Navajo. There was a big valley that had caught fire that had touched against a ley line which made the fires turn blue and magical. The tribe people in a really nice way asked me (being a nature spirit) to use my speed and magic to get all of the animals in the area out of there before the valley was consumed. What else could a fox do? But I worried for the Navajo. They said not to. They could protect themselves and move, they said, but the animals? Some of them wouldn't leave. I had to tell them where to go. So I asked the Navajo where that was. They told me. And when the fire finally died, the Navajo returned. Then the animals returned. Then the other nature spirits returned. The Navajo gave me this fetish as a way of saying thanks. Few people care about animals and spirits like those Navajo, let me tell you."
  
  Minor Native American Fetish. A speed fetish is normally made from the toenails, feet/foot pads of a wolf or coyote, or slivers from the hoof of a horse, or bird feathers. When activated, the fetish raises the user's Speed to 50 (35 mph/56 km) or it adds 20 points to the Speed attribute, whichever is greater. Fatigue from running is minimal, about one-third normal. This magic is activated whenever the character runs on his own two feet; maximum duration two hours. It does not increase reaction time, punching speed or attacks per melee.
  
  Millennium Tree Wand of Knowledge (Book of Magic, page 292)
  
  Spoiler: Millennium Tree Wand of Knowledge

  A snarled stick with two buds at the tip. Possesses the usual features plus the following:
  - The constant power granted to its owner is Tongues. Others holding on to the wand will also enjoy the same power until they let go.
  - Spell Magic. A total of five spells can be cast per 24 hour period. Spells available include: Eyes of Thoth, Words of Truth, Memory Bank, and Commune with Spirits. Spell strength is equal to a 7th level sorcerer.
  Cost: 150,000 credits.
  
  Heavenly Speaking Flute (Ame-no-nori-goto) (Book of Magic, page 299)
  
  Spoiler: Heavenly Speaking Flute

  A flute, often carved out of bamboo, bone or wood, with no obvious marks or signs to show it is special. Some Taoist and Shinto mystics create this item to facilitate communication with entities, ghosts and other spiritual beings. The flute has three powers, each of which has its own tune that must be played. Each tune can be played three times a day, for as long as an hour at a time. Fighting monks, monster hunters and mystics are often given this magical item as a gift or reward for services rendered.
  
  The Powers of the Flute include:
  Song of Heavenly Senses: While playing this melody, the character can See the Invisible, including any entities, energy creatures, etc. The character can also feel when he's within 5 miles ( 8 km) of a ley line, a nexus point or other place of mystic power, and he gets a sense of the distance and direction of the place. Also, the flute player can feel the presence of supernatural evil (60 feet/18.3 m radius).
  Song of Spiritual Comfort: This song is pleasurable and amusing for spirits and entities of good alignment, and painful and fear-inducing for evil entities (spirits of a selfish alignment have a 50-50 chance of being affected either way; generally, those who mean well towards the player will feel pleasure). Good spirits will typically help the character with information, advice and small tasks in return for an hour's worth of music. Evil spirits must save vs. magic (14 or higher) or will be forced to flee the area, but even those who make their save will only have half their number of attacks, bonuses, and skill values as long as they are within 300 feet (91 m) of the flute player or if they can still hear the music.
  Song of Summoning or Banishing: The music can summon an entity of the character's choice, or he can banish a spirit, possessing demon, or similar creature. In either case, the entity in question gets a saving throw (16 or higher) to resist the summoning or banishing. In addition, other characters performing an exorcism while the music plays, are +20 to have successful results.
  Cost of the Flute: Very rarely sold; will only work for people with good alignments (Unprincipled and Aberrant characters who have vowed to fight demons and the supernatural have a 50% of being able to use one; roll once to determine whether or not the character can ever use these flutes). In the few cases where it has been sold, the price has ranged from 50,000 to 100,000 credits. (It "cost" Snowfall: 75,000 credits)
  
  Magical Japanese Lunchbox!
  
  Spoiler: Magical Japanese Lunchbox!

  Per Sherwood, "I haven't had much focus on needing to replace used supplies, but sake, rice and tofu are going to be rare commodities in Rifts America. I'll let you take a item that will be able to generate those specific things that you picked up on your travels to Japan." Woo! So, this with fresh rice, fried tofu, and warm sake (with bottle and two cups). Snowfall's favorites! These items are often left at Inari shrines to ask for his favor (at least back in the old days).
  
  Background: "Okay, okay, a few years ago, I offered to help the Atlanteans of Clan Draco Amicus dimensionally travel for free, but in return for my services, they generously gave me this wonderful magical box that creates my favorite foods! Oh, I just love Atlanteans! I've had the box for a few years now, but just recently (at the start of Snowfall's entry into Sherwood's game), they asked me to help them travel one more time. This box has fed me so very well and they have been such fine company, who am I to say no?"

  Blind Warrior Woman Talisman
  
  Spoiler: Blind Warrior Woman Talisman

  - (Per Sherwood) The best personal force field armor out there is the Blind Warrior Woman talisman. It provides 100 MDC for 10 minutes at a time, and can be invoked up to three times in a 24 hour period. Problem is, it is very expensive. I can offer those that want one of these a discount on these for Lord Brazamal, at the cost of five million credits each. Before you choke on your kibble, that is at half price.
  
  Atlantean Crystal Items (from Secrets of the Atlanteans, pages 137-142). Item/Quantity (power/P.P.E. cost). Credit cost.
  1. Water Crystal points to water for 2 hours - 1 P.P.E., creates 1 gallon of drinking water - 8 P.P.E., points to body of salt water/sea or ocean - 2 P.P.E.). 10,000 cr.

  Bowl of the Winds
  
  Spoiler: Bowl of the Winds

  There have been only three of these bowls made, and the Kitsune believes that you are all looking at a Bowl of the Winds. If it is truly one of the three, it is a powerful item capable of manipulating the weather! It can perform simple changes quite easily, such as making a light rainfall come down in the middle of a cloudy day. But it can do much more than that. Given enough time to prep the surrounding area, it can whip up tornados and hurricanes just as easily as a blizzard or a drought.
  
  But, be warned. Without a full understanding of just what you are doing, it is possible that you could cause disruptions in the weather all around you that can take years to straighten out. Truly a powerful item.
  
  The Bowl of Winds is something that will take several minutes of time of working the magic into it to get it to work; far longer than any combat would take place. In order to make any changes to the weather, it takes an infusion of 100 PPE to get it to work, and the range of the effects cover an area in miles equal to the level of the person putting the PPE into it. More than one person can donate to the cost, and this has an added benefit of increasing the effective level of radius that the Bowl has, making ritual magic with multiple people very powerful with it.

  Camouflage Cloak
  
  Spoiler: Details

  Moloch continues with, "Since you are trying to keep yourselves hidden, I would suggest using more technology-based stealth systems. There is a camouflage cloak that is battery powered, and can basically duplicate the effects of a Chameleon spell. If you walk slowly or are standing still, you are nearly invisible. Walking or running faster raises up the odds that someone will spot you. The power cell runs for sixty minutes of continual cloaking effect, and the battery can be quickly replaced with another quickly."
  
  From this post:
  
  "As you can see for yourselves, the camo cloak is very effective, but does not stop everything. Scent, sound and touch are all unaffected, so you need to make sure you don't have on such lovely perfume like my dear Emma is wearing, and any noises you make will also not be blocked. Also, you still take up space, so any accidental brush up against you will be felt. Standing still is best, since any motion makes it harder for the active camo systems to keep up with. The faster you move, the more visible you become until such time as the camo cloak is practically useless."
  
  Emma walks over to the group and shows the material of the now deactivated cloak off to you. She says, "The material is quite durable, and will resist minor damage from scrapes and tears. It is, unfortunately, not a Mega Damage material, so it can be ripped up or cut with a knife. The best use of this cloak is to be silent and still for a moment while the people you are trying to hide from go walking past you without noticing your presence."
  
  The Ecto-Man then says, "The cloak does have a few small slits in it, just big enough for a human to slip a hand or weapon through, making it possible for you reach out and grab something, or to stick a weapon through to perform a surprise attack on someone without damaging your cloak. As I said, this is a technological device, so there is no trace of magic to it. Impressive, no? A handy invention, well worth the price."
  
  Cloak of Shadow Walking
  
  Spoiler: Details

  The shadow cloak can work inside the complex, but you can be seen with normal visible detection abilities unless you are in an existing shadow. If you are in a well lit room, you will be more obvious to be spotted since you'll stand out much clearer.
  
  Talisman of Psychic Dampening
  
  Spoiler: Details

  "First, there are some talismans that will dull the 'psychic smell' that we men (and women) of magic have that the Dog Boys can sense. What would normally be detectable hundreds of feet away, such as a powerful mage or a dragon, these little gems will reduce that sense range to just a score of feet, so long as the being does not engage in any active magic or psychic powers while wearing the talismans. Doing that will void the protection of the talisman, and the magic smell will be detectable from a long distance away."

  "So... You want to know about little Snowfall, huh? Glad you asked! Here it is in a big nutshell.
  
  "Since the feudal days of Japan when I was little bitty kit, I've served as a messenger and magical healer to the Japanese Fox-Spirit Inari (I gained white fur as all fox-messengers of Inari do). Great spirit! No one like him. Really! What a fellow! At first, my duties were exciting and adventurous and worthy of great tales! I got to help help some people, play tricks on others, and deliver messages all over the Megaverse! But there were tough times too. War hurts. People suffer and die. And during those days, darkness was everywhere you looked. The feudal times of Japan were bloody harsh and awfully cruel to spirits and humans both. War is no place for people to be. Sure, there was peace when it all ended, but along came more and more battles and wars. Before you knew it, it was World War II. After that, the Great Cataclysm. I was so experienced and trusted by this time as to be involved in every major disaster to even get near Japan. And I'll tell you - there was a lot of darkness...
  
  "As time passed, Inari sent me and my fellow messengers to dangerous places where even warriors hesitated to go. And for what? You know! Deliveries! When you're in my line of work, you deliver celestial mail, death notices, work orders, love letters, odd requests, birthday gifts, military orders, wedding invitations (those were great), even the occasional celestial subpoena from you-know-who (those were always fun... NOT!)! Once, I even carried an edict from Amaterasu Omikami herself! Okay, I'll admit it; I was only chosen for that job because her runners were all out sick with the canine flu, so Inari sent me... But hey! I've been all over! I've made runs from the New Empire (that's in Japan to all you gaijin out there) to the Three Galaxies to Wormwood to Hell to all the way out to Out Past Black Stump (don't ask if you don't know)! Some places I've forgotten about. Some places I know better than others. But that's life, right?
  
  "As the centuries passed, the numbers of realms I crossed felt like the numbers of stars in the skies. Towns, counties, nations, dimensions. Sooner or later, they all started to look the same, yet every single journey was just different enough for me to see some fun in it! And I was good at this! Let me tell you something. When you find something you love doing and you're good at it, why stop, right? Only rarely had I stumbled and failed to perform in my celestial duties. No matter how dangerous, I always gave it the good ol' Kitsune try! But... a fox can only take so much of those scenes of death and carnage and darkness before it starts to weigh him down. Darkness can feel like a bunch of bricks tied around your neck that you carry everywhere you go. On the job or not. In time, I saw so much darkness my very soul began to waste away. I was so busy back then. And I was in trouble and I didn't even know it!
  
  "But you know who did? My buddies! My fellow fox-messengers, my badgers and bunnies, even the bears noticed I was going downhill. And if you know anything about bunnies, they can't shut up about anything! So they saw my decline, got together in a big bunch, and went straight to Inari! With gifts and praise and the greatest respect they went to him and made their case for me. And you know what? The great Fox-spirit decided to give me a break! I got a whole vacation and much-needed break from running! Not too long, he said. Maybe two or three centuries, give or take a decade or two. But hey! Take with thanks what you're gifted! Besides, I was one of those messenger-foxes had built up all kinds of seniority in my line of work and as a long-traveled multi-tailed messenger in the Japanese pantheon, many a younger kit wanted a shot at my "title" (days off). I told them they could take it with my blessings. I gladly gave it up.
  
  "And so, Inari put me on light duty. A little over 100 years ago, he ordered me to go and aid the Atlanteans, specifically Clans Aerihman and Aurelous in their home dimension. And get this! By helping them, I learned to become a healer in the non-magical traditions. All this time, I've been healing the sick and poor and injured with my magic, but I didn't know a thing about CPR or forest-grown ointments or any of that stuff. If I couldn't cure it with magic, I couldn't cure it. But boy, did Clan Aerelous change all that! In exchange for getting big and important messages out for them (and in my line of work, they're all big and important if you get what I'm saying), they passed me from master to master and gave me an education in life that was really good for the soul! Even better than chicken soup or okonomiyaki!
  
  "After all that learning how to help others without using my magic, I was also helping mend my own being, my own wounds! Little did I know it was something Inari had planned all along! Whoa! Along with that, the Atlanteans did more than teach and heal me, they awoke again my love of travel and adventure and all things fun and wonderful. Like bathing in sunshine! Laying on the grass with some ice cream. You know, the good stuff in life! Gone were the dark times and in came the light again! And in time, tales of my running had got around (some Atlanteans talk like bunnies. Who knew?). Some of the Atlantean big boys and girls commented that I had both the background and proper attitude to become a Dimensional Voyager, though the process would be demanding and painful. Well, I knew all about demanding and painful by then. I humbly asked Inari's permission to become one only to find out that, yes, this too was in his plan all along! Isn't that something? Me! Outfoxed by the oldest fox of them all!!
  
  "So here I am more than a century later. Still on vacation and allowed to roam free across the Megaverse. I serve Inari, the Atlanteans, and those ordinary souls just trying to get by. Sure, sometimes I miss ol' Nippon. When it gets too much, I go back and visit Hokkaido, the Millenium Tree, The New Empire, Kyoto, and bunches of other places and see what's what. I'm just a little runner helping out where I can, but when you've been to as many places as I have, you learn a few things even if you were just passing through!
  
  "I've got to get going now. Got to hop dimensions to Rifts Earth. Maybe there will be a little adventure waiting for me there. You never know, right?
  
  "Thanks for listening! Maybe I'll see you around sometime!"

  Spoiler: New World Man

  "New World Man" by Rush
  
  Complete lyrics from Rush.com
  He’s a rebel and a runner
  He’s a signal turning green
  He’s a restless young romantic
  Wants to run the big machine
  
  He’s got a problem with his poisons
  But you know he’ll find a cure
  He’s cleaning up his systems
  To keep his nature pure
  
  Learning to match the beat of the Old World man
  Learning to catch the heat of the Third World man
  
  He’s got to make his own mistakes
  And learn to mend the mess he makes
  He’s old enough to know what’s right
  But young enough not to choose it
  He’s noble enough to win the world
  But weak enough to lose it —
  
  He’s a New World man…
  
  He’s a radio receiver
  Tuned to factories and farms
  He’s a writer and arranger
  And a young boy bearing arms
  
  He’s got a problem with his power
  With weapons on patrol
  He’s got to walk a fine line
  And keep his self-control
  
  Trying to save the day for the Old World man
  Trying to pave the way for the Third World man
  
  He’s not concerned with yesterday
  He knows constant change is here today
  He’s noble enough to know what’s right
  But weak enough not to choose it
  He’s wise enough to win the world
  But fool enough to lose it —
  
  He’s a New World man…

  Of Mechanoids...
  

  They are a whole lot of bad news. They are a other dimensional threat that has been a scourge for centuries, wiping out any and all humanoid life that they encounter without any negotiation or quarter given. They have Motherships the size of planets with hundreds of trillions of different soldier types on board, and even the dreaded Splurgoth are afraid of them. If they ever come to this dimension in sufficient numbers, they will happily replicate and expand, taking their evil across this galaxy.

  Rune Sword - "Demon Slayer" - Given to Terra in celebration of her becoming a Tattooed Undead Slayer for House Draco Amicus!
  The second is a traditional longsword. Well balanced, it is designed to be wielded with one or two hands.
  
  The longsword is also a minor rune weapon, one that can only be used by a person of good alignment. It is a demon slayer, doing extra damage to their ilk. Certainly not something that Salnesh would want hanging around.
  
  Despite its rather simple appearance, the second sword has a few nice goodies to it. It will inflict 5d6 MD in melee, but does 10d6 to demons, provides the same +1 to all Saving Throws, and it possess psionic abilities of all Sensitive and Physical abilities, plus these three Super Psi powers: Hydrokinesis, Electrokinesis, and Mind Block Auto Defense. It has a battery of 100 ISP to fuel its powers and is highly intelligent.
