[edit] The Necrons

"We are less than cattle to these beings, chattel to be cast aside, consumed or made sport with for their pleasure. There is not one amongst them that would pay heed to a world of Man as I would to an ant on my boot."

Skills: Awareness (Per), Climb (S).

Talents: Ambidextrous, Basic Weapon Training (Gauss), Iron Jaw, Melee Weapon Training (Primitive).

Traits: Fear 1, From Beyond, Machine 5, Natural Armor 3, Phase Out*, Regeneration, Size (Hulking), Unnatural Strength (x2), Unnatural Toughness (x2), Unnatural Senses (15m).

  • Phase Out: Necrons do not take Critical Damage, and can never be reduced below zero Wounds by damage. When a Necron is reduced to zero Wounds, it stays in its current location until the start of its next Turn. At the start of the Necron Turn, make a Toughness test for Regeneration as normal. If the test is passed, the Necron regains one Wound and may act as normal; if the test is failed, the Necron immediately teleports away to its tomb for self-repair. Typically, a Necron that phases out will take its weapon and any other incidental equipment with it, but at the GM's discretion, characters may be able to keep the Necron's weapons or parts of its body if these are separated from the main body before it phases out.

Weapons: Gauss flayer (90m; S/-/-; 1d10+5 E; Pen 4; Clip unlimited; Rld N/A; Tearing) with built-in combat attachment (1d10+8 R; Pen 2).

[edit] Horrors of the Warp

[edit] The Heartless

Requested by TemhotaTech. Original source: Kingdom Hearts series

"I find myself perversely fascinated by these shadowy entities, who seem to drain the emotion, the anima, the very light from their victims. They are comprised of warpstuff and ephemera like all daemons, but unlike most daemons, these beasts exhibit no particular loyalty to the Ruinous Powers; indeed, even the greatest of them displays little motivation or ambition at all, beyond the assuaging of its own hunger. Because of this singular lack of drive, this mindless devotion to destruction and the consumption of light and life, my assistant has dubbed these creatures the 'Heartless'; I think the title needlessly romantic, but it will serve for the time being."

-- Excerpt from The Ansem Codex, fragment recovered 202.M41

  • Devour Heart: All Heartless possess this ability, as it is their primary means of attaining sustenance. Devour Heart may only be used on an adjacent opponent who has been reduced to zero or fewer Wounds. As a Half action, the Heartless may make an opposed Willpower Test against its opponent; if it succeeds, the opponent takes 1d10 points of Fellowship damage, +1 for every degree of success the Heartless attained on the test. A character reduced to zero Fellowship by this attack is slain outright, his heart consumed to slake the Heartless's unholy thirst. At the GM's discretion, a character killed in this manner may return to life as a Nobody, possibly at the cost of one or more Fate Points.

[edit] Shadow

Original Author: Servitor_2152

"Least of all the Heartless body-forms are these tiny creatures, who scuttle in the dark and feed on the energies of the weak. They possess the ability to withdraw partially into warpspace, becoming like unto their namesake as they flit rapidly along ceiling, wall, and floor. They also have the unique distinction of being the most innocuous-looking warp entities I have ever seen." -- The Ansem Codex

Movement: 2/4/6/12

Wounds: 6

Skills: Awareness (Per), Concealment (Ag) +20, Silent Move (Ag) +20.

Talents: None.

Traits: Daemonic (TB 6), Dark Sight, Devour Heart, From Beyond, Natural Weapons (claws), Size (Scrawny), Warp Instability, Shadow Form*.

  • Shadow Form: A Shadow may, as a Full Action, assume Shadow Form. While in this form, the Shadow gains the Unnatural Speed (x2) Trait, but can move only along solid objects, including walls, ceilings, and floors. A Shadow in Shadow Form cannot meaningfully interact with the physical world in any way, and is immune to all physical damage, although psychic powers affect it as normal. Changing from Shadow Form back to physical form is also a Full Action.

Armor: None.

Weapons: Claws (1d10+2 R; Pen 2).

Threat Rating: Malleus Minima.

[edit] Neoshadow

Original Author: Servitor_2152

"Similar in appearance but greater in strength and ferocity than their lesser cousins, these beasts are more what one would expect from a daemonic predator. Be wary, for while lesser Shadows use their shadow form merely to skulk and scuttle, these creatures are able to rapidly leap into the third dimension to pounce upon unsuspecting prey." -- The Ansem Codex

Traits: Daemonic (TB 8), Dark Sight, Devour Heart, Fear 1, From Beyond, Natural Weapons (claws), Warp Instability, Shadow Form*.

  • Shadow Form: A Neoshadow may, as a Full action, assume Shadow Form. While in this form, the Neoshadow gains the Unnatural Speed (x2) Trait, but can move only along solid objects, including walls, ceilings, and floors. A Neoshadow in Shadow Form cannot meaningfully interact with the physical world in any way, and is immune to all physical damage, although psychic powers affect it as normal. Changing from Shadow Form back to physical form is a Free Action; note that a favored tactic of Neoshadows is to perform a Charge or All-Out Attack action on the turn they resume physical form.

Armor: None.

Weapons: Claws (1d10+3 R; Pen 2).

Threat Rating: Malleus Minoris.

[edit] Trooper

Original Author: TemhotaTech Unlike other Heartless such as the Shadow and Neoshadow, Troopers appear to be prepared for war. Troopers are heavily armed and heavily armored. They are about 7-feet tall and come equpiped in a variety of weapons and armor. They are skilled with their weapons and know a varaity of combat tactics and doctrines. They always seem to appear in squads of 20-30.

[edit] The Nobodies

Requested by TemhotaTech. Original source: Kingdom Hearts series

"When a Heartless is through consuming the vital essence of its prey, all that remains is a hollow and empty shell; body, mind, even warp presence remain intact, yet the crucial spark of life is lost. Those victims whose will is weak will literally fade away, swiftly dissolving into nonexistence through a process I do not fully understand. Yet perhaps this is a mercy, for those whose will is stronger -- those who truly desire to continue existing -- will find their form twisted into something less than human. Pity these wretches, for while they still 'live' in a sense, there is nothing of the original person left. They have become, as my assistant puts it, Nobody."

-- Excerpt from The Ansem Codex, fragment recovered 205.M41

[edit] Dusk

Original Author: Servitor_2152

"These creatures resemble nothing so much as cast-off bits of cloth that take the shape of a man. They move with an unnatural grace, flitting through the air one moment, striking and stabbing with bladed limbs the next. They are disturbing to look upon, but fear them not, for cloth still shreds, and cloth still burns." -- The Ansem Codex

[edit] Skreamers

Original Author: TemhotaTech Although classified as Nobodies, this partially true. Skreamers are really the result of some Madman trying to create their own Heartless army by extracting people's hearts. Instead of creating Heartless, this created a Nobody whose clothes where made out of the same flesh fromwhich came from!
