Semi-related to my previous post — If you’re a GM, and you’re looking for ways to drive your #TTRPG campaigns based on #PlayerCharacter #motivations, take a look at Media Labs Books’ "Game Master’s Handbook of Proactive Roleplaying" (https://medialabbooks.com/products/9781964487434_the-game-masters-handbook-of-proactive-roleplaying).

I say “semi-related” because a fair bit of what’s presented there is already baked in to #Fate and #MotW — it may just not be obvious how to leverage those systems’ rules to this kind of end. 😉

Bestial Human Monitor Lizard
Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Corryn and W. McAusland
These lizard bestial humans have a tough time getting admitted into a human settlement, and unless arriving with known humans, cyborgs or mutant humans, will be turned away at gunpoint. Even when admitted entry, often with a bribe of 30+3d6sp slipped to the guards, the monitor lizard must remain confined to the unit’s quarters and will not be allowed into any saloon, store or eatery.

Talk to the hand. 😎

This spring I'm excited to take part in a game project with the most talented people in my class! My humble task is to create the player character - or her hands, more specificly, since it's gonna be a first person game.

This pic is a work-in-progress shot from the texturing phase in Substance 3D Painter.

Alloy Steel Cladding
This steel carapace is either black, gleaming chrome or some sort of metallic metal, such as green, red or blue. While the android encased in this two centimeter thick, articulating armored shell might have the splendid physique of a fit man or woman, there is no mistaking it for a living human despite the appearance score of the android. Other armor, and some special features that might conceal this plating, can be worn with this protective layer.

CPU Within Android’s Head
The CPU (Central Processing Unit) of an android is its hard-wired, computerized brain and occupies the skull cavity of the head. Other than a jury-rigged CPU variety, listed in the table below, the computerized brain housed in this android is fixed and can’t be switched in and out without deleting the consciousness, however, by gaining ranks, trait improvements can a occur.

Heavy Combat Military Android

Once widely deployed on the sides of Mecha and human factions of old, their large size made them stand out, and so receive unwanted attention and multiple incoming rounds. Few of these brutes now walk the twisted world of The Mutant Epoch, but those that do are much feared, well respected, and incredibly valuable assets to any wasteland warlord or dig team. They stand at least a foot (30cm) taller than a large man, are broad of chest and shoulder and have enormous, cable knotted muscles
