ZEBULOID GUNSLINGER!

Unread post by Greyaxe »

Yea baby, just had this great idea for a zebuloid gunslinger. 3d6+12 pp it will be awsome, although i think Gunslinger is not an allowable occ but Galactic Tracer is and as a men of arms they can take sharpshooting. SO heres to emptying two clips of ammo per melee per gun (paired)

The Zebuloid is JUST made for that sort of insanity.... :D

"Trouble rather the Tiger in his Lair,
Than the Sage among his Books,
For all the Empires and Kingdoms,
The Armies and Works that you hold Dear,
Are to him but the Playthings of the Moment,
To be turned over with the Flick of a Finger,
And the Turning of a Page"

Unfortunatly I cant give him a HTH because zebuloids are already maxed out, and the rcc says i cant. So no Chi powers, but he does have a pp of 27 which should afford him some nice bonuses to INIT and STR.

One word...
NO!
Bind the body to the opened mind
Bind the body to the opened mind

I dream of towers in a world consumed
A void in the sentient sky
I dream of fissures across the moon
Leaves of the lotus rise

Actually, I think the 14 attacks per melee meant to
be distributed among several, simultaneous processes.
(Like dodge, using several weapons, etc.).

So, Zeboloids cannot learn paired weapons - it would
be a few steps backwards for them, 'cause they already
use several "limbs" simultenously.

Adios

Zebulod get paired weapons a part of their RCC abilities.

Yeah... like using assault rifles to shoot seven guys at once...

The RCC description said something like using several
weapons systems simultanously... Which is essentially
the same, as using several assault rifles...

An OCC of your own design? reminiscent of a mystic, I think, with better skill selection.

That is a wicked NPC. I might use him (if you don't mind) in my game. I've got some rascally vicious PC's.
"Your Grace," she said, "I have only one question. Do you wish this man crippled or dead?"

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."

"As you will it, your Grace."

It never hurts for the GM to be a bit of one.

I'm going to be the host of a discussion at a Scifi con in May with a friend of mine.

Actually, on the Hungarian RPG homepage, there was a
series of articles, with the same topic :D

And what KLM did they determine in Hungary about GMs?
"Your Grace," she said, "I have only one question. Do you wish this man crippled or dead?"

That is an interesting concept, not sure if the Hungarians would agree with you on that comment.

Ah, nothing like this.

A few of us, hailing from the same RPG club, have this concept,
that the GM have to be sadistic for a degree, so that rewards
(which are given sparingly) will be sweeter.

This concept augments the method of creating a "working"
RPG "world" (sometimes it is just a small town), with
at least remotely logical internal workings and a preferably
clear "food chain". Player characters are somewhere in the
lower middle of it, at least in the beginning.

And so on.

But GM's "must know everything" - in the Monthy Python way.

That is because they pace themselves to their own inner timing pieces.
