Mr. Smith. A Brainer. pre:Stats: Cool+2 Hard-1 Hot-1 Sharp=0 Weird+2 Looks: Man, office wear, smooth face, soft eyes, slight body. Moves: Direct-brain whisper projection: you can roll+weird to get the effects of going aggro, without going aggro. Your victim has to be able to see you, but you don’t have to interact. If your victim forces your hand, your mind counts as a weapon (1-harm ap close loud-optional). Casual brain receptivity: when you read someone, roll+weird instead of roll+sharp. Your victim has to be able to see you, but you don’t have to interact. Gear: silenced 9mm (2-harm close hi-tech) oddly patched tweed jacket (1-armor) pain-wave projector (1-harm ap area loud reload hi-tech) Goes off like a reusable grenade. Hits everyone but you. brain relay (area close hi-tech) For purposes of brainer moves, if someone can see your brain relay, they can see you. oddments worth 5-barter Hx: Luka +3 Wombat +3 Raven +2 Doctor +2 Gozo. I like this guy. Runs a small market. Thing is, he doesn't fear me. A lot of people do, right off the bat, even if they don't know why. Makes him easy to talk to. We try not to antagonize each other too much, and I can usually get some pretty good deals from him. Likewise, people don't tend to gently caress around in Gozo's market. Much. Lightning Jack. I don't like this guy. Runs a small gang. He's got no morals. None. Wiped out Lady Torsa's hospital for jingle. A big pile of jingle, but still. Hospital. He comes around every so often, offering jingle to join up with him. So far, he's taken no for an answer. One of these days he's going to take a different tack. Campfire. Does someone mind telling me what the gently caress these are? And what they're doing in everyone around here's dreams? Captain Foo fucked around with this message at 13:41 on Jun 2, 2015 |

So what’s the worst, holy-poo poo-that’s-big secret you’ve pulled out of someone’s brainmeats? You know the real reason Boss Keeler's hold on the Bridge fell apart overnight? Rolfball found out he was fuckin' Bish. I'll let you guess as to who I yanked that out of.

Mr. Smith Everyone: Write Hx-1. My secrets are mine alone. Luka: I told you that you needed to find somewhere else to go with your crew after the...issues that emerged when you were supposed to be working at the Bridge for me. Instead, you stayed in my building. I told you not to. Nothing happened. Or did it? I write Hx+3. Wombat: I see you have a brain in a jar. I see you have trouble figuring out its secrets. I see you have no idea that the expert lurks in the shadows. I see an interesting future. I write Hx+3. Everyone else: I take what you tell me and write it +1.

Mr. Prokosch, I think we will find that Mr. Smith will be seeking out Wombat shortly; reality's edge is certainly fraying...

Wombat can take Smith's point. Also willing to spend up to 2-barter in the downtime to get weird parts/labor/guinea pigs Captain Foo fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Apr 26, 2015 |

i'm thinking that wombat and smith can alter the direction of their research into making a sweet brain amp, hook it up to the van, and then with someone at the front lines holding the brain relay and a super-dense hotbox in the van we can drop some serious brain bombs on all PwrGas! fuckos

Not that I'm aware of, but off the top of my head I'd wing one gang level is about equivalent to one vehicle level. a small gang would get harm + armor bonuses against a single person a person in a light vehicle would get harm + armor bonuses against a single person a small gang would be on equal footing against a light vehicle a medium gang would get harm + armor bonuses against a light vehicle a medium vehicle would get harm + armor bonuses against a small gang a medium gang would be on equal footing against a medium vehicle accounting of course for tags on the vehicles (and or stats, see pg 246) or gangs; determining how the vehicle stacks up to the gang is going to be the MCs call, I think.
