Tech Rules

This is a basic run down of how Technology works.

Referred to as Cybernetics as a catch all. Any device that is implanted in a player's body or replaces part of it can be considered a Cybernetic. This includes magical replacements as well.

Cybernetic Limit

A player can only have a number of Cybernetics equal to their HD. A Primitive Replacement Limb does not count towards this limit.

Cybernetic Modifications

Replacement Limbs and some other Cybernetics can be modified to add other benefits. Each Cybernetic can support a single mod.

• Primitive Arm (10 TU, 5 Wounds, 0 DR) : This rudimentary prosthetic barely allows movement and is far more of a brace then a usable limb. You can not wield a weapon in it normally, unless you use its mod slot to install a weapon… however this means your arm is now that weapon and not usable in any other way.

• Primitive Leg (10 TU, 5 Wounds, 0 DR): This pegleg or simple prosthetic allows a small amount of additional movement, but only barely, Uncomfortable and easily destroyed.

• Basic Cyber Arm/Leg (30 TU, 10 Wounds, 5 DR): A massive step up from primitive replacements. It is fully functional with all fingers, toes and joints, just like the real thing. It's very much obvious it's artificial though.

• Basic Cyber Mantle (45 TU, 20 Wounds, 5 DR): Massive organ and bone replacement in your chest is an invasive choice to make. It is very obvious as well. Replaces the Torso

• Basic Cyber Skull (45 TU, 10 wounds, 5 DR): IRON SKULL MOTHERFUCKER

• Standard Cyber Arm/Leg (80 TU, 15 Wounds, 10 DR): Even more advanced then the Basic version. Far more durable than most peoples natural limb. In addition it can appear to be a real limb, requiring a DC 25 perception check or a DC 20 Heal check

• Standard Cyber Mantle (120 TU, 30 Wounds, 10 DR): Large scale organ replacement and a fortified backbone.

• Basic Cyber Skull (120 TU, 15 wounds, 10 DR): STEEL SKULL MOTHERFUCKER

• Advanced Cyber Arm/Leg (180 TU, 20 Wounds, 15 DR): Cutting edge and likely far better than any mere mortal’s limbs could be.

• Advanced Cyber Mantle (270 TU, 40 Wounds, 15 DR): Cutting edge and likely far better than any mere mortal’s limbs could be.

• Advanced Cyber Skull (270 TU, 20 Wounds, 15 DR): TITANIUM SKULL MOTHERFUCKER

• Mana Mesh (30 TU): This cybernetic has been modified to boost the rate in which you restore mana, your mana recovery rate increases by 1.

• Adrenal Stimulants (30 TU): This Cybernetic has been modified to boost the rate in which you restore TP, Your TP recovery rate increases by 1

• Fortified (20TU, Replacements only): The cybernetic replacements Wounds increase by 5

• Hardened (60TU, Replacements only): The cybernetics DR increases by 5

• Energy Storage (25 TU): The cybernetic can store up to 10 charges within it and be used to power anything you touch as long as you understand how the object works

• Impact Dampener (25 TU): You gain 5 Barrier that restores every 8 hours, as a Full Round Action you may spend a Charge to restore the barrier as well. Each Impact Dampener you have requires an additional charge to restore, but no extra action.

Power Stations provide a charge one of two ways, Fueled and Passive. Fueled power stations require fuel to be added at a rate of 1TU of fuel per charge. For example a Rudimentary Fueled Room needs 1 TU of Fuel per minute to charge an item. Passive power stations require no fuel and recharge items passively.

Power Stations are also divided into two sizes, Rooms and Portable. A room is a power station that takes up one room in a building, whereas portable power stations are heavy backpacks that weigh 50 lbs.

Power Stations can only recharge one item or battery at a time, unless additional charging ports are constructed. Then they charge the items in order of charging port.
