The Infiltrator
A replacement for the Half-Living
In the world of the post-apocalyptic storm of Dead Reign it’s a kill or be killed environment. Sometimes the survivors bite the bullet or more aptly gets bit by a zombie. In some cases however they don’t die they are just on the front porch of Death’s house ready to ring the doorbell. Luckily they survive either from other survivors saving their ass or just dumb luck. Due to this near death experience they become infatuated with the dead; how to avoid zombies, move among zombies undetected and most importantly how to kill the quietly. The Infiltrator studies the undead in all capacities to learn and truly understand them, the smell, sounds and capabilities are all studied in great detail.
O.C.C. SPECIAL ABILITIES OF THE INFILTRATOR:
1. Increased P.S.: Optional, The infiltrator suffered severe nerve damage from the near lethal attack. This damage has resulted in a loss of feeling. Losing one’s sense of touch may have some advantages: 1) pain is virtually ignored; the character can ignore any damage or attack that inflicts pain until they are at or below 5 hit points, 2) increased strength +50% to P.S. score; without feeling pain they can’t tell when their muscles have reached the normal limit and exert themselves far beyond what would be considered safe.
A loss of feeling results in some negative effects as well which may outweigh the positive effects: 1) No feeling means not knowing when you have taken damage, if you can’t see it you don’t know it happened. 2) If you can’t feel where it hurts you can’t tell the team medic where it hurts, this results in a -15% on any skill roll to treat the Infiltrators injuries.)
2. Can point out the exact type of zombie after observing it for 1D4 rounds
3. Study of the Dead: The Infiltrator knows the strengths and weaknesses of the walking dead, they know what will work and what won’t this grants the character a +2 on called shot: head, and a +1 to strike when they identify the specific type of zombie. These bonuses can stack.
4. Undead on the outside: The Infiltrator can spend 1 minute covering themselves or one other person in the gore and viscera of the dead (if one is available) once this is done the Undead will accept them as their own for unless taking a “human” action or getting in their way of their prey something washes away the gore like rain, sprinklers, etc. The disguise only lasts 3 minutes before they realize. Some of the Undead can see through the ploy. Thinker 01-40%, Mock zombie 01-55%, or Death priest 01-70%.
