Would anyone be interested in me putting some stuff out about my fallout table top game? I made it because I hate the modiphus one. Sorry the 2d20 system being forced into a preexisting system that has basis in ttrpgs kills me.
A simple selection of a few bio modifications one may choose to get in the Near Apocalypse.
—
Bone Knife: Organically forming blade that cuts through your arm to be used as a weapon. The blade’s pass through of your arm doesn’t wound you, but the blade’s sharpness is akin to that of a well honed scalpel. The blade itself can extend from between the fingers, top of the forearm, under, or from the palm. The blade can be retracted at any time
Arm Blade: Instead of the dagger of the bone blade or the great sword of the deca-blade, this is more akin to the noble sword of olde. The arm blade can be extended from the entire forearm into a two to three foot long dense yet nonetheless sharp bone sword like blade. When unused, the blade is retracted into the arm, but thanks to its segmented design it’s fully able to be packed within to the forearm.
Deca-blade: A large heavy buster blade made from reinforced bone meant to crush as much as it is to slash and cleave. The blade is the length of about three to four feet. Its sharpness varies but the raw power of the weapon is worth the sometimes rough handling. Though described as a buster blade, it can take on many forms. Examples: A buster blade, a massive sickle, a cleaver like square blade, and one similar to a scimitar. Though these are not restrictive styles.
Rose Arm: An arm that fires replenishing bone spurs needles at a target. The arm itself is creates several porous holes within the skin, from the rapidly metabolizing bone allows rapid firing and reloading.
Bioclaws: This replaces your everyday fingertips with heavy plated pointed and tipped claws. These are not fingernails but rather a growth of the finger bones into small razor like tips. This often comes with the hardening of bones in the hands. The wearer can chose to retract them as they wish or not at all. When stored in the finger, they more often than not have to cut their way out of the hand once more.
Barbed Flesh: Allows your flesh to grow replenish-able hooked barbs or large spikes that when attached to someone can tear or rip skin. This is a mostly defensive biomod but finds much use in the necropolis. People often don’t want to be grabbed in this environment.
Pincer: A large crab like pincer, the inside of which holds many jagged teeth protrusions. Anything caught in the pincer is swiftly torn to shreds and ribbon. The pincer fully replaces the hand but can still manipulate certain items.
Serpentini: Retractable fangs that are capable of piercing the toughest of flesh. The fangs range in size depending on the user’s preference, but are always reticent in the roof of the mouth when not activated. The fangs while being a good concealable weapon, they gain the added bonus of being able to be implanted with venom that can stun or outright kill an individual.
Goring Rams: Horns made for the explicit purpose of ramming. Often the horns are pointed to an extent and come in a variety of styles. Mostly no recognizable animalistic fashion as they’re often brutal boney protrusions. There are some cases though where the odd genetic blip causes a massive bone blade rather than horns. Allowing for the same ram but a whole new look.
Crested Tendril: A long intestine like tendril that can be implanted into the arms, chest, head, or mouth - that attacks with a small razor like bone. The tendril is a reinforced intestine that can move independently of its user or be completely controlled. The blade is a small yet nimble cutting device. Perfect for mid range slashes.
Spindle Spiders: A series of connected spider legs tipped with viscous blades. The legs are connected to the spine with extra support structures to avoid potential damage. The legs despite being labeled as spiders can come in six or eight legs. Their exoskeletal configuration is simply that of a spider.
Cudgels: Turning your hands into hardened dermal plating and occasionally spiked never fails to be effective. The skin of your hands and forearms turn into durable heavy dermal plating (with an optional detail to the implant being the transforming into dermal plated spikes). Capable of dealing intense damage with raw power.
The Hammer: A large dense bone that launches out from one’s arm able to crush and pulverize at the heart’s content. The hammer is an enlarged bone twice the size in every way to one naturally found within the body. The hammer can be retracted but leaves an incredibly visible deformation within the arm. Though it makes up for its lack of subtlety with viscous brutality.
Crushers: For a more discreet hand to hand package the crushers are hard to beat. Hyperdensity knuckles forming along your hand (can also have spikes). The crushers allow for a built in brass knuckle of sorts. Without the worry of breaking your hand when used.
Reinforced Tensile Connectors and Muscle Density Enhancers: An intense reconstruction and strengthening of the tendons allowing for more power into the explosive movement of the body. This pairs naturally with a rapid increase of muscle density. This naturally causes more ambient strength and durability within the body.
Butcher’s Nails: Large neurospikes that dig brutally into specific areas of the brain. The neurospikes cause an increase of aggressive behavior, a decrease in empathic behavior, and an inclination for violent solutions. Despite these negatives, the neurospikes’ reduction of pain causes an often volatile combination.
Motoric Spike: The spine is allowed the movement of a series of microneedles along the length of the bone. The spikes are moved at the will of the user giving the body more dexterous movement due to the stimulation of the nervous system via inner pressure points.
Enhanced Jaw: Reinforcing the jaw bone and increasing vascular muscle strength giving the user the ability to pull, rend, and tear with teeth alone. The choice of teeth themselves are often a sort of fashion statement in of themselves. Serrated teeth or teeth not dissimilar to that of dogs or eels are common within the Red Hook - though some people prefer more discrete profiles.
Firespit: Reconstructing natural oils into flammable fluid that is ignited at the end of the tongue that launches out as a flaming breath. The oil acts as a natural adhesive and sticks to objects or skin. Properties of this cause a low grade napalm effect on its victims. Allowing the user to scorch and burn at their will. Of course overuse may cause dry mouth.
Sand Skin: An extra layer of skin that is attached to the back. The skin is thicker and more durable with dense tendon that end in hooks. The user ducks down and the skin opens allowing the user to relax in the worst storms and to cover themselves to hide.
Bio-Hook: Made from hardened bone that is able to fold due to strengthened tendons. The hook unfurls from the arm and is able to be used to grapple as expected, but with elastic musculature the hook is able to be thrown out a fair distance to hit the desired target.
Bile: A gastric gland is grown in one’s throat that allows the user to spray a viscous greasy acid from their newly reconstructed mouth. This -while enacting the vomit expulsion- expands the throat and produces a boiling fluid mixture of biotoxins that leaves reddish brown matter on whichever surface it may land on. The biotoxin has a tendency to irritate the skin, while causing horrific burning, coughing, lesions, and so on
Let me tell you a small story about a recent event we had.
-
So, one day we decide we need a vacation (mostly him). So we go back and forth a bit on where to go, but he has a genuinely great idea of going to a vacation spot a lot of Kentuckians head to down in Tennessee (this is the limit of doxxing I will do to myself). So we gather a rough idea of what all we wanna do since this is a duo trip. Just the both of us, no more.
About a week later he has almost everything planned out perfectly with a great amount of detail with budget in mind so we can squeeze out a fuck ton with a little. And guess what. We go, and everything he said is planned so well we manage to hit everything we wanted to do with time to spare. The only thing that wasn’t planned for was the heat wave which was brutal we survived.
Bio Vaquero! Doing some work on the western side of the US. What’s beyond the gates and walls of the Sprawl, etc etc. for the few of you post viewers. I’ll post more when I can.
Boyfriend/Hopefully Soon to be Husband Appreciation Post:
Note for reference and reader convenience - the reason I am posting this to a public platform for several people to glance at while they’re in bed just to scroll to the next post, is so that all of you few who see this understand how fuckin cool my boyfriend is. He’s so sick dude.
1. My boyfriend is one of the most intense people I have ever met, and he’s always right up my alley because of it. We are both intense people. When he feels something he feels it a lot. It’s very mutual in every case. He knows what’s up and he gets it. As much as he would deny it. He’s not a good shit taker and it’s very awesome. When I feel something there’s a great big monster that pops out of my chest and crawls around on the floor, wet and screaming as god intended. Guess what! His emotion monster and mine make out on the floor because they’re so perfectly aligned.
2. He knows what’s up. If he has something going on he gets to stepping on learning about it. If there’s something that needs planning, he’s already got it done. We have a vacation at the end of the month. He planned 99% of it perfectly within a day. Fully researched and masterfully executed. He is so unbelievably intelligent. He’s gone to school for some pretty cool stuff. There is no doubt in my mind that however he continues his education he will excel in it beyond any measure that I can fathom. Everyday I am surprised he saw this bag of meat that barely passed highschool and said,”Yeah that’s the one. Cut the label off. I’ll just wear him out.” Some of you may be intimidated by someone so vastly smarter than you. Let me say I understand but you are a coward /j. This guy is genuinely the smartest guy I’ve ever met.
3. This man is so kind, thoughtful, and generous. As stated previously. I am barely more competent than the Three Stooges. But he is so unbelievably understanding. He is so patient with me. He laughs with me, he makes everyday feel so much better, he makes the world feel lighter and less stressful. You all don’t understand. He is so charming in everything he does. He’s so emotionally intelligent that it’s never a struggle for him to understand my emotions. I’m so glad he lets me understand his.
I love my boyfriend so fucking much. Thank you all for listening to my Ted Talk.
