SILVER WISH DISCS:

When an Operator receives a Silver Wish Disc they may use it with 2x [1d6] rolls; both rolls may be used for either a single item or an attempt at two different items, though only the highest roll will be delivered.

-ONLY an Operator may write a wish, and ONLY a physical item that existed on that particular Operator's homeworld, or on Tallus if applicable, may be requested.

-Requests to be fulfilled by those that inhabit Tallus may be requested as well, yet care must be taken as the receiver's intentions may be quite fickle, or possibly detrimarental.

-Attempted use by those that are not Operators will only result in the disc being destroyed.

-On a 6, the item requested will arrive in perfect condition with all requested modifications; on a 5, the item requested will arrive in excellent condition with only 3/4 the requested modifications; on a 4, the item requested will arrive with only 1/2 the requested modifications; a result of 3 may yield a (possibly) useful curio or a damaged, similar item of questionable value; a result of 2 is a failure and will likely provide only scrap materials; a 1 results in a useless, albeit well made curio.

*BASIC GUIDELINES:

-ANY item that currently exists which one wishes to be improved CANNOT be lost or damaged in any way, NOR will any damage be caused to a currently existing item whether intentional or unintentional.

-ANY item that one wishes to be improved MUST BE IMPROVED IF AT ALL POSSIBLE; this improvement is based on the MAGNITUDE of the result. For example: a result of 2 will cause the first 2 possible improvements to be committed WITHOUT THE POTENTIAL FOR FAILURE.

-ANY item that one wishes to be improved will, if that specific item can ONLY be replaced with a superior version, result in the original existing copy remaining and a superior version being retrieved (if necessary) or created.

-ANY item can also be wished for to be repaired, the repair of which is based on the MAGNITUDE of the result (from a 10% to a 60% repair). NOTE that this guideline directly implies that the item's original materials WILL LIKELY BE replaced with superior materials and the weight MUST remain close to the same.

-ANY item that currently exists can be repaired multiple times until reaching that item's base capacity, and thereafter upgraded 2 to 3 times depending on technological capability.

-ANY item that cannot be repaired (an almost impossible occurrence) will not be damaged or changed. Attempting to do so WILL NOT destroy the wish disc, however, IF SPECIFICALLY REQUESTED then an equal or superior copy may be produced ONLY if that item is not Unique.

 

*ADVANCED GUIDELINES:

-ANY item requested is able to have period specific modifications, improvements, enhancements, additions, add-ons, customization, AND material changes, including those only found on Tallus, one’s homeworld, or one’s knowledge. Examples:

-utilizing quartzine or diamondine lenses on a scope instead of glass or other composites,

-replacing a chrome-molybdenum sleeved barrel with non-standard metals or materials (when applicable),

-replacing stainless steel with hi-alloys only found on Tallus, or those from an Operator's home world,

-modifying a common scope to utilize period specific Infrared, NVG, Thermal, starlight, or other technological functions that would fit the casing and technological levels,

-adding electronic devices or components in known, prototype, likely existing, or theoretically proven stages to the intended item.

 

*****

TIER 2 ADVANCED EQUIPMENT UNLOCKED.

-All Operators now have access to heavy non-portable weaponry: missile launchers, rocket launchers, mounted turrets, towed artillery, two-man & squad based weaponry are acceptable.

However, advanced weaponry will still be Era Locked, and weaponry must weigh a total of 8 tons of less.

 

-Access unlocked for small mechanized or engine based mechanical implements, utility devices, or vehicles below 8 tons maximum weight.

Examples include: chainsaws, augurs, light cranes, vehicle lifts, etc.

 

-Access unlocked for working & functional weapon prototypes, or modern-era based technologies for those not from a highly advanced world.

 

-Access unlocked for modern generation armored fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, light tanks, aircraft, blue water vessels, spaceborne vessels, and etc.; all such must be under the 8 ton capacity limit.

 

-All instances of exoskeletons & powered armor are now unlocked. Their stats and capabilities will be dependent upon what they are based on, and, for the most part, may be improved beyond their base capabilities, up to a maximum of 3 to 6 upgrades depending on the roll used to acquire them.

 

 

TOO LONG, DIDN'T READ? Wish Discs are not meant to solely provide basic acquisitions. If a "thing" can fit, seems like it SHOULD fit, does exist, COULD exist, or someone COULD make an alteration to make said "thing" fit, then it will fit.

Except you. IN the box. YOU cannot fit inside that box. Or this box, don't try it unless you want to get stuck.

BLACK CANDLES:

The rarest, and certainly one of the five most coveted gifts throughout the known Imperium, the appearance of a Black Candle has three purposes: honoring the greatest services of an Astartes on Terra during which the Bell of Heroes is rung, appearing during times of the foulest heresies to act as both light and shield against Chaos, or given as a sign of true favor from the highest ranking members of the Inquisition to their loyal subordinates.

In this case, the first two do not, and will never, apply. (“Double and extra heresy do not count... or so I have been told. ” -Chisan Nas)

 

When acquired by an Imperial subject, a Black Candle is to be taken to a secure, safe location where the user must seat themselves, light the candle, and focus their thoughts upon a specific piece of wargear, an STC readout or printer, or any other object known to them that they desire to possess.

Make a [1d6] <Black Candle roll, the result of which will determine whether or not the object of desire is translated from the Imperium to Tallus.

*Should an Imperial be given the right to do so, they may attempt to summon wargear directly from Inquisitor Velasi's personal flagship.

**Due to the unstable (and sometimes volatile) translation system, and the fact that much of her possessions procured through the past ten (“Or more.” -Chisan Nas) millennia are either extremely rare, difficult to reproduce, or near-unique examples hailing from the Dark Age of Technology, such an attempt will require the usage of at minimum 2 Black Candles for Rare wargear, 3 Black Candles for Artificer-grade, and 4 Black Candles for Ultra Rare.

GREEN CARDS:

When a Certain Type of Pony, hereafter referred to as a CTP, receives a Green card they may use it with a [1d6] roll.

-ONLY an CTP may write a wish, and only a physical item that exists may be requested.

-Requests to be fulfilled by those that inhabit spectrums, dimensions, and Planes allied to Tallus may be requested as well, yet care must be taken as the receiver's intentions may be quite fickle or possibly detrimental.

-Attempted use by those that are not CTP''s will only result in the card being destroyed.

-The higher the result, the greater the chance of the item requested appearing in 100% condition and in perfect shape, whereas results of 3 or lower may yield a (possibly) useless curio.

ARCANE ARTIFACTS:

 

*****

Negative Onyx, The.

 

APPEARANCE: the Negative Onyx is a piece of enchanted black onyx, masterfully cut into a perfect teardrop shape and enchanted with powerful, arcane magics. There are absolutely no imperfections on its surface, and it seems to be indestructible by normal means.

 

HISTORY: the Negative Onyx is a magical artifact which possesses no sense of being, merely having been programmed with a set of actions and directives. It possesses the ability to absorb all marener of negative thoughts and energies, effectively being an endless source of positive thinking and power.

While there appears to be no immediate side effects, little has been explicitly documarented, though the short term side effects are generally mild negative thought draining, rendering a person incapable of being in a bad mood.

The Negative Onyx was created at least one thousand years ago, and is speculated to be a Late Dynasty Era relic, but was lost shortly after through unknown events. It resurfaced when it was discovered by Filth in snow, encased in a block of ice. There does not appear to be any way to extract the negative power from the Onyx, further research is required to understand more.

There are limits to the amount of energy it can absorb, however, a significantly traumatic event may produce more negative energy than the Onyx could absorb at once. Beings that possess large amounts of negative energy within them are also unaffected by the Onyx. It is possible that lesser negative beings could be absorbed by the Onyx.

It is known only by those who have done extensive research on old and lost magical artifacts, even then by those who know where to look as it has long since been forgotten by the world. So few mentions of it are made that most are skeptical it exists, but there is evidence of having been used in several events during recently known history.

Those that do know of it have little idea of its true potential. However, any being, with or without a connection to magic is able to feel the power of the Onyx: simply being around it makes living beings, especially ponies, much happier, the atmosphere becomes lighter and more serene in general.

 

CURRENT LOCATION: inhabiting a large fountain in Northern Canterlot, where some.. strange incidents have occurred.

 

 

*****

Vindicator (Elemarental Scourge, Indestructible, Unique Legendary Eldritch Artifact): a 15' long Basilisk Lord (right) fang, forged into a perfectly tapered, smooth, Elemarentally imbued lance.

The rear of the weapon where it was carved off the Basilisk Lord is engraved with Spiral's name in gryphon runes. Further runes and glyphs of strength, power, and vindication have been extensively carved into this weapon by Krinza, as well as a gryphon translation of Spiral's few (those that he will state at least) achievemarents.

The tip was shaped into a triangular piercing head, one side with the inscription 'Vindicator', the second with 'Hunter', but the third was left blank for unknown reasons.

Too heavy to be used as a normal weapon, Vindicator can only be controlled by Spiral's immarense bond with his weapon, owed to imbuing it with his own elemarentally-charged blood which grants Vindicator several basic psychokinetic capabilities.

Long since confirmed to contain an entirely new form of sapience, Krinza has reasoned that it is a micro-example of demi-sapience with most of Razorback Fortress' capabilities.

While Vindicator's intended purpose is to combat Elemarental beings, it strangely has no animosity towards it's master; whether this is due to Spiral's intense focus, or Vindicator's crippling boredom, apathy, and mere carelessness is unknown.

*On its own Vindicator may only utilize two of three abilities per turn, but must rotate between Psychokinesis and Elemarental Lance in order to prevent from overheating.

 

QUIRK: Boredom, Major syndrome. Vindicator will poke holes in the ground, psychokinetically toy with nearby objects, inscribe glyphs and runes on buildings (or anything left in the open), flatten out piles of snow/dirt, spin in the air for hours on end, randomly change the Elemarents covering itself, form Elemarental specific shields, wander the Fortress whenever not busy, and generally help out ponies if it is capable of doing so

 

ABILITIES:

Basic Psychokinesis+4

Expert Assault+10

Expert Elemarental Lance+10

 

ELDRITCH ABILITIES:

-Basilisk Killer: ignores Basilisk DR

-Elemarental Corrections: adds +10 to ONE Elemarental Form skill each turn, limited ONLY to Spiral's Elemarental forms

-Psionic Adapted: when linked to a psion or Changeling, Vindicator adds +2 to ONE type of Psionic roll each turn

-Overwhelming Power: when linked to a unicorn, Vindicator adds +2 to ALL Elemarental Lance rolls

 

ELDRITCH RESONATION:

-Elemarental Scourge: grants an Eldritch [1d6+20] <Scourgebane against enemy Elemarentals, able to cause a 1 turn stun on a max critical but only every 3rd turn

 

*****

STATUS: spends most of its time powered down in the Lab, though may sometimes leave to search for Spiral.

 

 

***************************************************************************************************************************************

 

TROPHIES:

 

*****

Clemency:

-Argus Command Dominator Fragment: a piece of an Argus model's missile casing. Considered a token and not a 'true' trophy by Twisted Wing as that particular Argus was not destroyed in the Lunar Citadel.

 

-Bellepheron's Head: the entire head of Bellepheron, former Empire Crystal pony stallion, a singer-turned-assassin, separated in the center of his neck. The flesh and blood has become a purple diamond-like crystalline substance. Both eyes still shine brightly in focus, his lips still carrying the hint of a death's rictus smile.

 

-Ethereal Crystalline Fragment. A piece of Champion Belregard's arm, fractured off by the Executioner Blade before evacuating itself and the Moss-Wisp. It's strangely light in comparison to his shield. Considered a token and not a 'true' trophy by Twisted Wing as Belregard still exists.

 

*****

Hollow:

-Marrowgrin's... Dick. A 20" long and 4" diameter severed Minotaur slaver's bovine dong, long since dried out and remarkably well preserved. Unsurprisingly, it's roughly a foot shorter than most Minotaur penises. Not even Mercy wants to touch it, nor has she tried.

 

*****

Jeff:

-Deep Forest Boar Horns & Tusks. A pair of blunt, cone-shaped blackened horns, 1' in length and twice the width at the base, as well as two pairs of 7" and 9" long curved tusks, the curve itself being a smoothly transitioned blade.

 

*****

[REDACTED] (DECEASED):

-Sevrit's Wings. These 8' long dusky silver wings, mounted on an Anfang shield as tribute by Huntsmaster Cu'Nir, are all that remain of the cannibal gryphon Sevrit, former Warlord of the Vale.

ELEMENTAL CORES:

 

*****

The Ice Core, Elemental Being: 1000HP, 20DR

 

(Blunt, Curious, Direct, Dry Wit, Intellectual, Knowledgeable, Logical, PRIMAL ELEMENTAL, Powerful, Savant, Watchful)

 

APPEARANCE: a small, palm-sized blue orb with a tiny pulsing light in the center, weighing about a pound.

 

BIOGRAPHY: prior history unknown. It travels either by rolling around inside a snowball shield, or floating. Immarenselely powerful, the Ice Core is a curious little being on a constant quest for knowledge.

After finding the Operators, and consequently getting into a scrap with them, it has chosen to remain and observe them. And observe them it does!

 

STATUS: formerly created a walk-in freezer behind the split-oval cooking stations, granting itself a suitable location to watch the interesting beings and events going on in the Fortress.

Now however, the Ice Core is missing after stating it had "duties" to perform elsewhere on Tallus.

 

ABILITIES:

Basic Stealth+3

Expert Core Perception+10

Master Casting+10

Master Research+15

 

SPECIAL ABILITIES:

-Grandmaster Flash Freeze: the Ice Core is capable of charging and directing a controlled blast of negative temperatures that can only be called absolute zero, flash freezing anything unlucky enough to take the full brunt of its rage using 4x [1d6+10] rolls.

 

-Snowball Shield: after creating a snowball around itself, of whichever size is preferred at the time, the Ice Core uses this to roll through wintery landscapes unseen, or to plow through whatever decides to be foolish enough to get in front of it.

This also allows the Ice Core the ability to marenipulate snow and ice within a wide area, letting it crush virtually anything it catches inside using 4x [1d6+10] rolls.

 

CORE ABILITIES:

-Core Link. When in direct contact, two or more Cores may join forces and energies to directly empower one Core in particular, gaining +10 to ALL rolls for each Core linked in this marener.

 

-Primal Substance: due to its nature as one of the Foundational Aspects of Tallus, the Ice Core immediately absorbs and regenerates its physical form when subjected to most forms of Ice damage, excluding purely Eldritch.

It may also utilize the Snowball Shield to perform such regeneration.

 

CORE WEAKNESS: Physical Fire attacks cause double damage, Elemarental and Mystical Fire attacks cause triple damage, though Eldritch fire causes quadruple damage.

This same penalty also applies to each Core in a Core Link as they share their weaknesses with each other, unless of course opposing Primal Elemarental Cores do (somehow) Link with each other.

LUNAR NAGHTMARES:

 

*****

RED NAGHTMARE CORE #2/4, Flowing Spark: 240HP, 4DR

 

*****

APPEARANCE: this particular Naghtmare is a voiceless, long deceased Crystal pony mare, the coat a bright red while her eyes, mane, and tail are solely composed of living flame.

Her features are well rounded with few hints of musculature giving a highly feminine cast, which makes her appearance even more sultry than most Crystal mares.

 

Though she cannot speak, her marenerisms and facial expressions are rarely anything more than cruel hostility, causing innate fear to nearly all ponies that witness her.

Her Cutie Marks are a trio of cartoonish purple flames in a triangle, rounded at the bottom with five squiggles of flame trailing upwards.

 

*****

BIOGRAPHY: Naghtmares are half-living, half-dead ponies, given a transient and partially Elemarental existence via Princess Luna's early experimarents with conjuration, mysticism, and Necromarecy.

 

This particular Naghtmare is a relentless, fearless, sadistic, and highly opportunistic combat support Naghtmare.

Whether due to intense military training or her natural poninality, Flowing Spark is constantly calculating the simplest methods to incinerate enemies in her line of sight, typically terrifying them into leaving to hunt down later, or simply forcing her opponents into amusing her until she becomes tired of their existence.

 

Infused with numerous flame capabilities, mainly meant for incinerating foes and making armor or weaponry impossible to use, Flowing Spark is one of the few Naghtmares capable of taking on entire squads with little fear of reprisal, partially due to the innate fear most sapient beings have for fire, and specialized training in the proper means of intimidating otherwise hardened opponents.

Has an inherent Slowfall-Float function due to said infusions, appearing as a swirling cloud of eternal flame connected to her hooves, though is much more powerful than most Naghtmares have.

 

Luna has stated that Flowing Spark is one of the few Naghtmares that should not be woken lightly as she makes little distinction between friend and foe, unless otherwise ordered by one with a sufficiently commarending voice and great willpower. *Currently in Princess Luna's possession.

 

*Roll [1d6] to summon her, the result is the number of turns she may last in reality each Operation, though a roll of 9 or higher on Intimidation, Iron Will, or Negotiation is required EACH TURN to prevent Flowing Spark from turning on 'potential' allies.

Expert Block+4

*****

-Learned Runes:

*Power: adds +1 to all Crystal Rune rolls for each max critical, capping at a maximum of +3.

 

*Pull: allows use of minor Psychokinesis, limited to a maximum of 500 pounds.

 

*****

FLAME NAGHTMARE ABILITIES:

-Firecall: a skill unique to Flowing Spark, she is able to drain minor portions of the Eternal Flame from within her unnatural core, shaping such expulsions to her thoughts and will, whether they be projectiles, literal walls of flame, or caricatures of living beings with 3x [1d6+10] rolls.

 

-Fireheart: by drawing the essence of Eternal Flame from her core, Flowing Spark is able to temporarily increase the power, width, speed, and extent of her Elemarental abilities. Roll [1d6] at the start of each turn, the result adds +X to all Fire Elemarental abilities and Assault/Parry/Riposte attacks the next turn.

 

-Fireheart's Fear: by displaying the eternal flames imbued to her core though her eyes and body, Flowing Spark can Demoralize even the bravest of living beings with a [1d6+4] roll, and has the capacity to terrify some Otherworldly and even Undead beings. Functions as Demoralize and can be affected by Fireheart.

 

-Flamesight: an unusual capability unique to the flame Naghtmares, Flamesight grants them the ability to 'see' the physical strengths and weaknesses of living and certain Otherworldly and Spectral beings, allowing them to pinpoint weaknesses to cause even greater harm than simply using their eternal core's inherent abilities. Roll [1d6+4], the result is then added to all Fire Elemarental abilities the following turn, but may only be used TWICE per Operation.

 

-Firestorm: the standard opening offense for flame Naghtmares, Firestorm allows Flowing Spark to encompass an area, varying from 1-50M in diameter at her whim, creating a brief surge of the Eternal Flame composing her core with 2x [1d6+10] rolls, though may only be used up to four times per Operation.

 

-Scorch: common to all flame Naghtmares is a perpetual, although minor, marenifestation of the Eternal Flame, granting a [1d6+4] Scorch offensive attack, most often used as an addition to their physical combat capabilities.

 

*****

UNIQUE NAGHTMARE OFFENSE: Master Molten Reign. Once per Operation, Flowing Spark is able to combine her core's immarense energies with a silent, endless song of crystalline flame, opening a rift to the Plane of Fire and allowing a veritable rain of bonfire sized, napalm-like fire Elemarental projectiles to rain from the sky with 4x [1d6+12] rolls over a 50M area for two turns. While the projectiles cannot track a target, they can splash an opponent on even a near-miss, burning them for 8 Flame damage each turn for two turns until the Elemarental essence is expended. Once the rift fades from reality, Flowing Spark's current body will disintegrate and she will return to her core.

 

*****

STATUS: deployed to guard Luna's Citadel on the Moon. Most often found patrolling the Labyrinth (tunnel networks) directly underneath the Atrium when not sleeping in her core.

YELLOW NAGHTMARE CORE #3/4, Rosan (real name: unknown): 350HP, 4DR

Age: unknown

Month of Birth: unknown

Month of Rebirth: unknown

 

*****

APPEARANCE: this particular Naghtmare is a long deceased, solidly built and soft yellow coated earth pony mare, her eyes a flickering yellow and constantly emitting traces of acidic-like smog.

Naghtmares are half-living, half-dead ponies, given a transient and partially Elemarental existence via Princess Luna's early experimarents in combining the least volatile aspects of conjuration, mysticism, and Necromarecy.

 

Rosan features an inherent Elemarental Slowfall-Float function due to said infusions, appearing as a swirling cloud of noxious yellow fumes connected to her hooves.

 

*****

BIOGRAPHY: mostly unknown. Rosan has stated she lived, and died, during a span of time before the Lunar-Solar War. Her allegiance from that era is unknown, though she lived in a place called 'Canterlot Village'.

 

Originally found trapped in one of Marquis du Spiral's tomes in Canterlot Underground, Rosan was released by Bill in a zombie-like state, her (long since) temporary body and mind having degenerated to the point of complete hostility.

Taking over and commarending Bill's physical body for a short period of time, she was brought down by a number of Operators afterwards, along with Twisted Wing's aid.

Bill carried Rosan's core with him for some time, though the two were unable to function interdependently, leaving Rosan stuck and unable to think freely.

 

Eventually freed by Discord, realizing the two needed to be separated, Rosan was able to recover.

A depression stemming from Bill's unorthodox and wholly retarded suicide in Canterlot has grievously shaken Rosan, diminishing much of her resilience and abilities, and she refuses to speak for long, whether due to fear of contact or self-imposed isolation is unknown.

 

When freshly brought forth from her core into the physical realm, Rosan is easily capable of holding her own against multiple living targets as she does not feel pain, and is technically immortal.

Heavily infused with several acidic capabilities mainly meant for defeating armor, although her skills are exceptional Rosan has little real combat experience.

 

*At any time Rosan's bearer may roll [1d6] to summon her, the result being the number of turns she may last in reality once every other Operation; out of Operation, the result is the number of hours Rosan may last in reality once per day/night cycle, though she will not need to regenerate or recuperate otherwise.

ACID NAGHTMARE ABILITIES:

-Acid Storm: a unique capability among the Yellow Naghtmares, Rosan is capable of expelling a 70' cone of Elemarental acid to damage physical opponents or weaken hardened targets with a [1d6+20] roll.

*If the target is heavily armored or has a weapon, the performarence and durability will be severely degraded

 

-Death Sight: the sustained state of her existence has given Rosan enough time to understand the often subtle forces and powers of life and death that nearly all miss in their day to day lives, and as such she has learned to use this talent to gauge the remaining life force of living beings, estimate the durability of undead creatures, or notice key weaknesses of physical enemies with a [1d6+4] <Death Sight roll

*This ability does not work on non-physical Otherworldly or Planar creatures, and cannot work on mechanical, Spectral, or purely mystical beings and creations

 

-Living Conduit: like the rest of the Yellow Naghtmares, Rosan is granted a [1d6+6] <Corrosive Acid ability, able to coat virtually any part of her body for offensive or defensive purposes with a resilient, long lasting compound that can easily eat through most metals and even meta-materials.

UNIQUE NAGHTMARE DEFENSE: Acid Manabomb. Designed during the beginning of the Lunar-Solar War based off the designs of Extra-Planar Harpy weapons of the same name, this is a highly unstable, experimarental, and powerful self-regenerating manabomb placed inside Rosan's body.

When her current physical body is nearly destroyed or cannot be maintained any longer, allows her to forcefully detonate, sending a powerful shockwave followed by a spray of lethal acid and bone in all directions using a [1d6+50] roll with a 15M radius.

*After the use of this ability Rosan's current body will be destroyed and her consciousness will return to her core, remaining there for 2 days until fully regenerating a 'new' body

PERSONAL SUMMONING ITEMS, RELICS, & DEVICES:

 

-Miniature Translocation Disc, mass produced: a small granite disc inscribed with the same precise runes used on a translocation stone, also being the same shape.

These discs allow a single item or living being to be sent to any available translocation point by the Vortex Remnant, and can also be used to transport items or living beings into the field, but can only be used once as the containmarent field holding the required energy is absorbed and dispersed when doing so.

Due to the limitations of bonding Vortex enchantmarents to physical materials, only ONE translocation disc may be active and carried in a group, as two in touching proximity may cause a planar rift, or worse, draw the attention of certain beings.

Studying the mystic-based enchantmarent and its bound energies for several months, Krinza created several copies to experimarent with, and upon noting there was little else that could be done, began carefully storing one to three in each building in the Fortress, warning everypony (and everyone) to NOT bring two, or more, into contact, under threat of an angry Mercy and possibly Tipper.

*LIMITATIONS: may only return one being, item, or multiple beings and items that are in direct contact, up to a maximum of 5 beings, with a limit of 5 tons additional cargo or objects.

Upon use, all beings are sent to the Waiting Room, where they may choose to return to where they've translocated from, or be sent directly to the Pagoda in Razorback Fortress.

Finally redeveloped for use in Bigmaw's weapon, the Ganet Croix, either Serra or Twisted Wing stole the research book containing instructions on how to replicate it, also containing several other recipes.

Taking note of Taffilon's mild, easily contained explosive properties, Spiral chose to utilize it as a gunpowder alternative for cartridge based kinetic weaponry by decreasing the joule output with fine grade cellulose and other bufferents to lower the amount of charge necessary.

The compound was tested extensively for several weeks, Spiral constantly adapting and modifying the compound, though subsequent testing by Jeff revealed the need for a greater amount of bufferant, and finally achieved a 1:1 ratio of weight and density for complete replacemarent of various gunpowders.

When used in its native state, Taffilon is a low grade explosive compound that requires either an electrical, chemical, or thermal based ignition source, rendering it quite useful in heightening the damage potential and lowering the weight of standard human explosives, whether in grenades or improvised munitions.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +3 damage per roll

An advanced variation of the workhorse Vietnam Era M40 Rocket, the Hydra 70 has a maximum optimal range of 4,000M and a shelling range of roughly 8,000M using the Kiowa's targeting systems.

Can be found mounted with numerous other warhead types, including but not limited to: incendiary, armor piercing, white phosphorous, flechettes, shrapnel, and smoke, though this is none of the above.

The standard High Explosive variant is typically used for destroying armored convoys, mass formations, or suppressing defenders in fortified buildings.

Intended to be a replacemarent for the (still) outrageously expensive and unstable manabombs, managel was initially developed from research after coming into contact with the then-poorly understood Lava Leech species.

While considered a marginal success during testing as it was found to be highly adaptable, the ability to infuse moderate amounts of specific Elemarental or arcane energies made its use much more appealing, though the disaster that occurred did prevent it from seeing use for nearly 1,500 years.

The infusion process dramatically increases managel's potential, though as one can imagine attempting to combine managel with a manabomb would be an awfully poor idea.

Despite the potentially higher maximum stability of managel, the recipe is (technically) unfinished and must still be handled with care as any Explosives or Assault roll under 4 causes it to detonate almost immediately afterwards.

-DAMAGE: causes +8 damage per roll; if infused by a specific Elemarent causes +8 of the intended Elemarental damage per roll; if infused with non-elemarental energies causes +8 Mystic damage per roll

-RADIUS: 3M

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: if NOT infused will inflict Shock on a max critical; if infused inflicts the advanced status effect matching Elemarental infusion; if infused with non-elemarental energies ignores 1/2 of the target's DR

 

When the casing is removed and manabombs are exposed to Tallus air, they become extremely unstable and volatile, able to detonate seemingly at will.

Some suspect manabombs CAN detonate just by looking at one harshly enough.

*Small manabombs must be handled/hoofled with extreme care as any Explosives or Assault roll under a result of 3 will cause one to immediately detonate.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +10 damage per roll

-RADIUS: 10M

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: inflicts a 1 turn Stun on unarmored or lightly armored targets, but inflicts Stun for 2 turns on a max critical against Armored targets

 

When the case's lid is removed and the manabomb inside are exposed to Tallus air, they become extremely unstable and volatile, able to detonate seemingly at will.

-ALWAYS inflicts Severe Bleeding

 

Intended to be deployed against tanks, ships, helicopters, and medium-level hardened structures, the Hellfire uses either the Kiowa's electronic commarend & control systems to lock onto technologically based targets using a semi-active signature seeking guidance system, or the Kiowa's M.M.S. (Mast Mounted Sight, affectionately called a peekball) mounted laser target designator.

Due to the integral electronic identification and guidance package, Hellfire missiles can even acquire their own targets after being fired without a lock on using a modern IFF (IDENTITY: FRIEND or FOE) electronic signal interception routine that picks the closest target.

With the 'Romeo' package can even target the most technologically advanced FOE signal, such as choosing a 6th Generation helicopter over a 5th Generation tank.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +12 damage per roll

-RADIUS: 15M

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: inflicts Bleeding and causes a 1 turn Stun on organic targets, but inflicts Severe Bleeding and Shock for 2 turns on a max critical

 

Due to the complexity, simplicity, and cheapness of even the most basic designs, these are considered the most effective non-military anti-personnel bombs.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +12 damage per roll

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts Bleeding and a 1 turn Stun, but inflicts Severe Bleeding and Shock for 2 turns on a max critical

 

Easily potent enough to stun passengers in all but the heaviest APC's and tanks.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +15 damage per roll & inflicts a -6 penalty to all Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival rolls for 6 turns afterwards

-RADIUS: 30M

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts Bleeding and Stun for 2 turns, but inflicts Severe Bleeding and Shock for 2 turns on a max critical

 

Essentially a 10 pound block of multi-hued, highly stable crystalline lattice infused with unstable arcane energies. When exposed to Tallus, these energies become much more erratic and volatile than their smaller variant.

Typically sealed in white, woven cotton satchels marked with the bright red Saddle Arabian word for 'manabomb', these are used for heavy demolition and large scale intensive mining operations, as well as being used to quickly seal tunnels if water pockets are mined into, or assaulting large targets.

Whenever possible, Councilierge affiliates capture large manabombs for use by Sentinel teams, groups of fast, fleet-hoofed earth pony sprinters that act as suicide troopers during large scale assaults, or teleported in by Support Strikers.

*Large manabombs MUST handled/hoofled carefully as any roll under a result of 4 when placing or throwing will cause one to detonate immediately.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +20 damage per roll

-RADIUS: 20M

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts a 2 turn Stun, but inflicts Shock for 2 turns on a max critical

This warhead's shaped explosive charge delivers a lethal stream of super-heated, 4,000 degree copper-plasma through plating to incapacitate and kill tank crews.

For obvious reasons it has a narrow direct kill radius, instead relying on over pressurization and heat generation inside a confined space to cause secondary lethal effects.

-DAMAGE: causes an additional +30 Plasma damage per roll with a 10M penetration vs heavy armor

-ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: will only fuze on Armored or Heavily Armored targets, ignores all DR, and inflicts Scorched

 

Highly accurate out to 20KM given sufficient altitude.

NOTE: THE COMPARATIVE ARMAMARENT REDUCTION of LIFE TEST, also to be known as "The CARL Test":

Using Carl the Useless [a Tallus Eldritch-Flora Abomination created by Kraut throwing a vegetarian burrito into the Magitek Furnace one night] as a base, this rule is intended to give a formative, highly simplified means to calculate the damage of odd or highly esoteric weaponry.

#1: THESE calculations require that a Carl the Useless target dummy, for testing purposes, is a Heavily Armored target with 0DR (as 2-Stage Warheads require a certain physical density & mass to properly fuze). thus for the purposes of this test Carl would not have any DR whatsoever to create a 'clean' & realistic damage scale result.

#2: presupposing that Carl the Useless is a Heavily Armored target dummy with infinite HP & 0DR, the average calculated median damage range of a PG-7V Single-Stage Warhead would cause from 60-100 damage to Carl given the use of 4 rolls with standard improvemarents, or 5-6 rolls without said improvemarents.

#2: FURTHER supposing that if Carl the Useless was a Heavily Armored AND Fragile target then the median damage range would be from 120-200, given the same rolls & improvemarents as stated in the above paragraph.

#3: SINCE the PG-7V Warhead does not function in the same manner as the 1-Stage Warhead, the pencil thin stream of of plasma-copper (to be referred to as Plasma for simplicity's sake) will instead bore through the following:

-solid ceramic plating or reinforced concrete up to 2' thick,

-steel spaced armor configurations up to 12" thick (from edge of exterior plate to edge of interior plate), while also counting the SPACING MATERIAL itself, usually either concrete or ceramic though both were historically used in conjunction with each other,

-4" of steel RHA, also known as rolled homogeneous armor, though this thickness was only historically used on battleships and ultra heavy tanks,

-2" of soft tungsten RHA spaced armor configurations,

-1" of hard tungsten alloy RHA,

-approximately 1/2" of diamondine.

#4: AS the plasma-copper stream would be able to bore through a PAIR of Carl the Useless target dummies which would still have infinite HP & 0DR, this would cause near-instantaneous charring of tissue to ash in a 4" diameter, 10M long outward-tapering cylinder.

 

FINAL TEST CONCLUSION: taking all of the above factors into account, the MAXIMUM POTENTIAL DAMAGE OUTPUT of the 2-Stage Warhead can be SAFELY calculated to be 300% more so than the maximum potential damage output of the PG-7V Single-Stage Warhead which does not include the effects of Plasma.

OPERATOR MEDICAL SUPPLIES:

 

-Bandage Roll: an easily acquired, stabilized cloth packet containing two Tallus mareufactured spider-silk bandage rolls, each 3" wide and 4' long, infused with a light alchemical clotting agent.

Mostly used for staunching minor to moderate wounds, stabilizing a limb, and splinting fractures with an appropriate object.

*Grants a [1d6+3] roll and stops Severe Bleeding, may cover multiple wounds on a single limb

*2 uses per pack

 

-Blood Pack: a single use IV (intravenous) packet of safely stabilized human blood. Reduces the effects of Bleeding and Shock during the recovery process.

For obvious reasons, keeping any in stock is nearly impossible unless in Razorback Fortress.

*Grants a [1d6+4] roll, reduces Fatigue by 2 levels, and restores 2HP/turn for 4 turns

*1 use only

 

-Disaster Trauma Pack: a fully refit, human style frame backpack weighing 65 pounds and covered in a fluorescent purple and blue flashing metallic alchemical-paint.

Specifically designed by Nova Flicker from various medical source outlets across Tallus, these purpose built, painfully expensive packs are put together piece by piece, taking advantage of the most advanced Alchemical, medical, and surgical components available to Razorback Company's allies.

Intended to rapidly treat an entire company, compony, or companeigh's worth of critically injured humans and ponies, though the cost of a SINGLE one is roughly double that of the standard contract, it sure as fuck will not let even the most strict, demanding (or demarending) medical professional down.

CONTENTS: 800x advanced rapid-absorbing compression rolls, dressings, bandages, wound pads, for both human and pony, sizes ranging from 2"x2" to 16"x16", precut rolls of a newly released alchemical-infused silk 'tape' that more resembles superglue gel than anything else, 10x titanium protective chest wound plates padded with a 3MM layer of bio-ablative rubber, 80x rapid setting glue-suture kits made from the silk of a hostile, silk spinning worm-like creature found in the outer reaches of the Crystal Empire, along with dozens of liquid, pill, and powder disinfectants, styptics, painkillers, antibiotics, antifungals, antiparasitics, antivirals, burn gels, frostbite treatmarent gels, and much more.

40x small vials each of low grade Dampener, Detox, Restoration, Regeneration, and Waker. The dosages for these are too low to cause Arcane Poisoning, or be used on their own.

For creating splints or internal fracture stabilizing systems should a unicorn or Crystal pony be around (or rich enough) to have their hooves on one of these, 10x rolls of 12"x120" quartzine sheets come with a reverse U-hooked diamondine blade for cutting the same, along with 120x medium sheet-paper titanium tubes oan advanced Alchemical glue compound, capable of rapidly sealing over critically bleeding wounds.. which even works underwater.

5 complete sets of diamondine surgical tools, including the standard 8 types of forceps

TWO doses of a dull, constantly swirling pink fluid marked 'Antallusine'. Created from an experimarental process by Princess Cadence, each will remove 10 points of Arcane Poisoning. Doctor Tipper has refused to answer any question as to how much, exactly, these cost.

ALCHEMY LAB: takes up the west side of the Library's second floor. Has a large, wide half-circular work table with a comfortable swiveling chair in an inset, giving one the ability to remain stationary while working. Some of Doctor Harlon's recovered tools and equipmarent were used to furnish the lab, with the remainder stored in Spiral's lab.

The table itself is partially automated through the Fortress's demi-sentient, and when activated provides a small hololith menu with a list of all currently known recipes, allowing an Operator or pony to request specific ingredients to be: ground, heated, burned, calcinated, condensed, cooled, or dried, continuing with their own project or projects in the meantime.

 

Non-offensive compounds and fluids that are similar in nature can become Permarenent, allowing the contents of a container to regenerate each night, while further improvemarents can grant the contents of a single container from two to three abilities in one.

EXPERT PROFICIENCY REQUIRED:

Carbon Steel: in stock

Chromium: in stock

Cobalt: in stock

Iron: in stock

High Carbon Steel: in stock

Magnesium: in stock. Dangerously flammable

Stainless Steel: limited stock

 

MASTER PROFICIENCY REQUIRED:

-Empire Crystal: obscene amounts in stock. Can be molded, shaped, and used like plexiglass.

*Requires a skilled Crystal pony to create weapons or armor from

 

-Kanpri: not in stock. An extremely rare red, blue, and purple glowing metal only found in volcanic regions with abnormally high tensile strength and wear resistance, mostly used for weaponry.

*When refined the colorations become wavy

 

-Lithium: small amount in stock. Found mainly in metallic or liquid states, though much more rarely in a crystallized form. Used to create both manabombs and power crystals by Saddle Arabians.

Was used during the Late Dynasty Era to create elemarentally absorbent armors, however that process has since been lost.

 

-Mythraline: not in stock. A secret alloy of mythril and unknown elemarents that may only be created by Sorcerers.

Easier to repair than mythril for less weight, though costs twice as much and takes three times longer to produce.

 

-Mythril: not in stock. An extremely rare white metal only found in ancient forests. Has abnormally high durability and ductility, mostly used for armor.

 

-Palladius/Paladine: not in stock. Essentially the same as palladium except it isn't radioactive and more often used as an alloy in specialized Solar faction armor or weaponry.

 

-Promethite: tiny amount in stock. A partially magical composite of magnesum, iron, lithium, silicon, and elemental flame. Highly dangerous to use in enclosed locations.

Most often used to create Spark Lamps which operate by shaving small amounts off an internal cylinder, then lighting the shavings under extreme oxygen deprivation.

 

-Tungsten Basilisk scales: obscene amounts in stock. Can be carved into shape or heat molded, though takes a great deal of time to do either.

 

-Titanium-Steel Alloy Plates: vast amounts in stock.

 

-Yttrium: tiny amount stock. Doesn't have any radioactive qualities; is only used for runic scribing or as a catalyst in sorcerous rituals.

 

-Golden Regal Drake scales: several pounds in stock.

 

 

GRANDMASTER PROFICIENCY REQUIRED:

-Diamondine: slightly less than 4 tons in stock. A tightly guarded alchemical initial blend of 60% diamond and 40% silver fused with either kanpri or mythril, created through a month long alchemical process. (“Both variations have downsides. No. Explaining would take months.” -Krinza)

One of the top five strongest materials available on Tallus, yet the second heaviest known: a 1CMx1CMx1CM cube weighs over double that of an equivalent sized tungsten cube.

 

-Iridine: not in stock. Essentially the same as iridium except it isn't radioactive; used as a catalyst for high level Alchemy or Grandmaster armor smiths, and as such is rarely sold in large amounts.

 

-Lumin/Lumen: 5 pounds in stock. A rare Lunar metal only found on the Moon; used as a catalyst for high level Alchemy and sorcerous rituals.

Can be used to create highly specialized, yet dismally hard to produce deflective armors. Essentially a form of magical aluminum, except without all the drawbacks.

*Cannot be legally owned or used by a non-Lunar faction member

 

-Promethine: not in stock. Often called fire-rock in its natural, highly stable state throughout the Dragonspine Mountains, Promethine is typically used as a replacemarent for wood.

When consumed by certain drakes and wyrms it allows them to breathe out fire temporarily. Can be purified and used as an alloy in heat resistant composite metals, unlike promethite.

 

-Titanium: >10 pounds in stock.

 

*****

-Diamond Hyfalgryph Scales: 12 in stock. A blocky, 4' tall and 3' wide rainbow hued diamond scale, somewhat resembling dragon scales, belonging to an Eldritch being widely known across Tallus, hundreds of other worlds, and even the various Planes themselves.

Deemed the Singing Abomination for its incessant, and to some ponies, utterly ridiculous, tendency to initiate musical duels against unsuspecting beings, the Hyfalgryph will, to those that win, grant that small number a sliver of his vast library of musical and instrumarental knowledge and tricks, often catapulting those lucky few to great stardom.

*When used to create armor or a shield, a portion of the Hyfalgryph's Eldritch resilience remains, reducing all Casting, Elemarental, Psionic, and other esoteric harm by 1/4

*1 owned by Hollow & Lont

*2 owned by Dante

*6 unowned

*1 USED by Lont, Pareidolia

 

-Flawless Gems: 68 in stock ("At least, in the Workshop." -Krinza)

 

-Small Poison Dragon scales: a set of 6 rounded, small buckler sized, misshapen scales with near-perfect Poison and Acid resistance.

 

***************************************************************************************************************************************

WEAPON, ARMOR, & ITEM CREATION RULES:

#1: when creating or improving a weapon, armor, or other items, the total number of points required to increase it's rank, base modifiers, and number of enchantmarent slots is cumulative and may not skip ranks

*An item CANNOT be taken from +1 to +3 in a single attempt, or from 1DR to 3DR

 

#2: items may only gain additional effects when utilizing esoteric skills such as: Casting, Crystal-Forging/Crystal Runes, Druidry, Enchanting, Mysticism, Sorcery, Runic Scribing, or other esoteric abilities.

*Furthermore, the number and strength of effects are limited solely to the knowledge and skills of that PC/NPC

 

#3: if a armor or weapon qualifies for an attempt to become Permarenent, a PC or NPC may then begin the process of improving an item to LEGENDARY status.

From this point on, any base result of 1 will cause a 50% loss of all points accumulated on that turn, essentially fixing their slip ups, screw ups, and the minor damage involved.

*This condition applies to traditional blacksmithing, engraving, hand milling, computerized shaping, or esoteric procedures.

 

#4: before working on a weapon, armor, or other item, the maximum potential modifiers and extra abilities will be discussed with the main GM first.

*If an item is listed as Unique, it may not be entirely copied

 

*****

MATERIAL BONUSES: materials add to the total number of crafting points when creating a weapon, armor, or item. The amount is cumulative per EACH different material, not per each USE of a material, thus if Steel is used once the item will gain +100 to it's total crafting count, though a second use of Steel will not gain another +100.

 

Raw materials add: +50 points. Examples include raw ore, raw gems, untreated wood, and other base materials that have not undergone any form of processing or refinemarent.

 

Refined materials add: +100 points. Examples include processed metals and materials, basic alloys, shaped gems, sealed or hardened wood, and other refined materials.

 

Quality materials add: +150 points. Examples include metallic alloys, specialized inorganic materials, exquisite gems, enchanted wood, and other specialized materials.

 

Arcane materials add: +300 points. Examples include specialty or enchanted alloys, Otherworldly or Planar wood, flawless enchanted gems, and unrefined Otherworldly materials. Also includes the unique elemarental steels and the various alchemically produced metallic gem materials.

 

Quality Arcane materials add: +400 points. Examples include bodily parts from Mystical beings, refined Otherworldly or Planar metals and materials, and Planar gems.

 

Exceptional Arcane materials add: +500 points. Examples include raw Eldritch bodily parts, metals, materials, and Spectral bodily parts.

 

Unique Arcane materials add: +750 points. Examples include refined Eldritch metals or materials, Dragon scales, exceptionally well preserved Eldritch bodily parts, and other suitably unique materials.

BASE USE VEHICLES:

 

 

***************************************************************************************************************************************

 

By replacing the original engine with a turbo-diesel JP8 for additional range, and to give it enough power to carry it's further modifications, this allowed the original interior and exterior paneling to be removed, which was then replaced with formed steel armor plating for additional longevity.

 

Due to it's redesign as a patrol vehicle, the original suspension was removed and replaced by a vastly superior dune buggy version in order to ensure the passengers weren't nauseous at all times. A roll cage & roof rack with a ring mount for an attached M2 Browning MG was installed, along with standard linkages to allow it to be carried by helicopters.

 

While the original seats were replaced by spring-bolted, shock absorbent ones, the Dagor's ability to seat three passengers rather comfortably and allow them to scope out a region or fire upon enemies with an exceptionally wide field of view renders it invaluable, although it does not have any doors to speak of.

 

The bed in the rear was replaced by an all-steel, downsized version of a pickup bed with two large heavy steel locking containers, able to be used as seats though rather uncomfortable, giving it a great amount of storage space and transport ability. Due to this it can, in a pinch, be utilized as an adhoc medical transport.

 

The front driver's compartment is semi-armored and considerably more comfortable than nearly all military vehicles prior to it, also featuring a simple, robust steering assembly, while the windshield is a thick composite plexiglass which, by most definitions, is considered in the upper bulletproof class, capable of absorbing heavy calibers up to the .300 WinMag, though anything more will easily punch through it, giving a good amount of protection to the driver and passenger.

 

While the Dagor has an average maximum range of 500 miles with the standard load of 4 passengers, their personal equipment, and the ring mount's gunner, it's maximum range when fully loaded with 9 passengers and their total loadout is still 380 miles, giving it a considerable edge against most light military vehicles of it's era.

***************************************************************************************************************************************

 

Decently armored with variable rolled homogeneous steel sheeting to protect against small arms fire and light artillery shrapnel from virtually all angles, the Recon model comes equipped with a high end analog-electronic radio system, easily capable of taking care of an entire company's needs, and a 250 mile VHF transmitter-receiver unit for extending friendly reconnaissance duties.

 

Common in nearly all modern military vehicles, the Panhard's driver, front spotter/radio operator, and a single rear passenger make use of relatively comfortable shock absorbing crash seats installed into the hull via suspension springs, each of which is reinforced by milled steel brackets to minimize shock from striking a mine, direct hits from man-portable rocket-assisted grenades, and even light battery rockets.

As a standard feature all Panhard VBL's are mounted with numerous heavy duty brackets allowing for transport by helicopter or towing, as well as having roof hatches for both driver and passenger.

 

The driver's dashboard features a bank of digital notification lights to notify various problems such as drivetrain failure, overheating of the transmission, engine, or radiator, air conditioning failure, and low tire inflation/damage among others, while the spotter/radio operator makes use of the centrally mounted radio control and command systems, as well as having access to one of two manual fire extinguishers, the second placed underneath the gunner's hatch.

 

Typical for it's era, the VBL Recon is fully Nuclear-Biological-Chemical protected by several layers of semi-hard synthetic rubber sealing systems, and the interior can be underpressurized or overpressured at will by the driver, whom also controls a highly efficient NBC filtration system.

 

When fully sealed with the driver's hatch locked and a 2M snorkel equipped for the engine intake, the VBL Recon becomes amphibious, propelled along by a common 10" steel screw-type propeller, though it can only achieve a paltry 5.5KPH due to it's boxy hull and 4.2 ton weight.

 

Despite it's relatively bland and unimpressive armor characteristics, the VBL Recon is well defended by a heavily armored cupola in the center of the roof, accessible by an internal hatch. 360 degree traversal allows the gunner to stand comfortably upright and remain well protected, except from overhead targets or precision fire.

A modified Browning M2A1 .50BMG that uses standard 200-round belts is installed in the cupola's front, allowing for effective fire support against infantry, light vehicles, and helicopters out to 800M.

Fitted with a unique, rigid quick change mounting system, the gunner can make use of infrared, thermal, and night vision optics, as well as heavy 8x12 or better 40MM rated scopes, increasing effective engagement range to 1,500M.

 

The rear passenger seat is often used solely by the gunner as there is little space for much else other than the VBL's occupant equipment, ammunition tins, and two fuel cans.

 

When acquired, this particular VBL had seen a great amount of action, bearing dents from hooves, large claw marks, acid burns, holes probably made by lances, and the other assorted forms of damage considered "normal" on Tallus.

 

Krinza was able to fully restore the VBL to stock specifications with ease, including the addition of much more comfortable seats. Considering giving it a paint job or something else potentially useful, he decided to... do something else entirely:

Using an experimental power crystal retrieved from Harlon's lab, the intervening temporal charge allowed him several hours in which to fortunately (or unfortunately depending on how Flash will interpret his violation of causal, NOT casual, temporal states) perform a number of selective modifications.

 

Starting by greatly improving the external armor using his vast knowledge of alloys, infusion processes, and enchantmarents, Krinza moved on to similarly harden and induce flexibility throughout the entire frame, then every other component he could reach.

Unsatisfied with those 'little' (to him at least) improvements, the windows were entirely replaced with quadruple-layered diamond sheets that sandwich transparent, flexible plexiglass sheets. THEN he gave it a color-phasing camouflague paint job.

Further modified with a number of physical and electronic features to improve it's flight stability, responsiveness, electronics command & control, information gathering capabilities, offensive armaments, also granting electronic semi-stealth functionalities.

 

Equipped with a unique combined thermal, night vision, and camera suite located directly above the main rotors in a semi-protected sphere pod, the Kiowa Stealth Warrior is much quieter than it's predecessors. This gives it relative safety in allowing a pilot to 'peek' over terrain in order to identify and mark tanks or other targets for ground, sea, or air attack runs, if the Kiowa itself is unable to perform the job or it's munitions are depleted, and even land to deposit it's passengers if absolutely required.

 

While a co-pilot isn't required for standard operation, the pilot is unable to take advantage of the Mast Mounted Sight's features for the most part, and is entirely unable to utilize an integrated electronic warfare operation suite.

Due to the added equipment, the rear seating arrangement is unfortunately small, able to seat two people, or one pony, on a somewhat narrow padded bench, though the rear doors are small and fairly cramped to get in or out from.

 

This particular Kiowa arrived at the Fortress with a significant amount of external damage from what appeared to be an attack jet's strafing run, judging by the remains of a Skyfish missile's casing still embedded in the pilot's chair.

Partially repaired by Lann and Krinza, the remaining damage was caused from crashing into the workshop besides the holes in the cockpit.

 

Amazingly, the electronic suites, command & control systems, and most of the instrument panels were intact upon arrival. The original glass was replaced with a heavily reinforced plexigrade sandwiched between thin sapphirine sheets for additional protection, and the Kiowa's skin has been fully restored, and even partially reinforced, using the last reserves of purified kanpri in the workshop.

Thanks to the efforts by Jeff, Joe, and Kraut repairing enough damage for Spiral and Krinza to complete it's exterior restoration, the Kiowa is now air worthy ready for further service once more.

 

During the harvest of Khahlani Island and subsequently the Fortress's renovations, Hollow, on numerous whims and with the help of a number of suspicious alcohols, painted the Kiowa's body a red, brown, and light yellow plaid, all four blades then expertly painted to look like chainsaws, both landing struts as logs, each Hellfire missile as a flaming log, the Hydra rocket pod as a thermos, as well as painting the XM296 with a pine cone motif.

 

Two pylons on opposite sides of the OH-58X are capable of being loaded with three different weapon systems: an M3P or M296 .50 BMG heavy machine gun mounted on the left pylon, an LAU-68 or M260 launcher pod with seven 2.75" Hydra 70 rockets mounted on the right pylon, or a pair of AGM-114 Hellfire missiles mounted on the right pylon.

For obvious reasons Hellfire missiles have little use on Tallus, except possibly against Mechano-Planar Constructs.

***************************************************************************************************************************************

Extensively redesigned based off the ("Fuckin' useless!" -Lonestar) Overshore Lander 1 and 2 APC's, this post-prototype production model received several upgrades to act as an anti-drone and anti-exoframe leader.

Powered by a severely classified fusion-core reactor that accepts most anything as fuel.

*Smaller than the original by four tons due to weight limitations.

 

The base is a ‘standard’ orbitally produced titanium flex-alloy frame, atop which a triple-layered polyaramid hull is rigid-bolted to the base structure. Spaced with layers of monofilament meta-polyaramid and classified titanium alloy panels that act as both floatation assistant and protection from conventional energy weapons, as well as lighter ballistics.

Multiple high compression air tanks allow the OL-3's operator to control the vehicle's height in water, either remaining under the surface, down to a maximum of 1KM, or floating high enough to utilize the forward plasma cannons. (“Limited firin’ arcs on ‘em was due to lackin’ magnetics. Ain’t no one found rare earths, an’the rocks floatin’ in space was drier n’a damn desert.” -Lonestar)

 

Stock equipment includes two NitrOx filtration units, and four compressed air storage tanks provide up to 4 hours of subsurface operating time depending on depth and number of occupants.

An integral fire suppresion system using a nitrogen-foam blend is spread throughout the interior.

Hardened Nine Ship Exotech Facility tri-quantum solid state electronic skin-packages located throughout the hull allow the gunner-systems operator to monitor battlefield or oceanic conditions using two hybrid particle scanning arrays.

(“Don’t much know any systems in’is thang. Barely had clearance ta do a few simulations, never got inna real one. Wouldn’ be s’prised if there’s shit locked e’rywhere, ExoTech was a buncha paranoid fuckers; half th’tech they produced wasn’t fit ta run a toaster. An’ not the RIGHT paranoid fuckers either.” -Lonestar)

*The capabilities and systems are classified far beyond Lonestar's Ocean World 5 access grades, and would require serious reverse-engineering to copy

 

The pilot and gunner cabin is accessible through either a pressurized hatch on top, or from an sealing access door in the crew cabin's front.

Taking inspiration from smaller gunboats and aerial assets, two rather comfortable lightweight aramid crash seats are equipped with a pair of piloting joysticks. Ahead and above the pilot are 2 small displays:

-The first above and left shows an overhead tactical view of the local battlefield, if enabled by a satellite or unit with the proper command codes.

-The second details the OL-3's status, including damage (or lack therof) of the most vital components.

-A large wraparound screen takes up most of the pilot's forward view, showing a 200 degree wide and 120 degree tall view, granted by numerous overlapping Exotech scanners embedded throughout the hull.

*This system receives information directly from the gunner-operators systems directly from the Optronic scanning mode, or may default to standard realtime assisted view

 

The gunner-system operator sits inside an enclosed 360 degree wraparound cockpit with a 260 degree tall view, capable of thermal, night vision, sonar, or infrared/thermal. An Optronic scanning mode that simulates the local battlefield is best used in conjunction with the prior systems.

-Two smaller overlays above left and right detail the IFF of assets: the left displays a realistic model view of a targeted asset, including indicators of 'Friendly', 'Allied', 'Hostile', 'Enemy', or 'Unknown'. The right screen is a per-sixtieth-second updating tactical simulated view of the local area that can scale out to 5,000M, or down to within 5M of the OL-3.

-The left joystick control operates both forward cannons, each with a 30 degree left to right operational window, but may only raise or depress 10 degrees. When targeting assets, a notation will display the target's range and possibility of penetration.

-The right joystick controls target acquisitions to four Independent Anti-Drone Laser Systems, able to confirm or deny prioritizing select targets for destruction, dismiss the same, acquire new targets, or switching to a defensive firing mode that selects and attempts to destroy incoming munitions or flagged hostiles.

*Each system is able to fire at a danger-close maximum of 2 degrees from the IFV's hull and other weapons.

*The gunner may also use an at-will firing mode if the systems are unable to tag an enemy asset

 

The crew compartment is a painfully simple 6' tall, 8' wide, and 10' long titanium rectangle coated with a rubberized lightweight aramid coating.

Four sets of two-person light aramid benches face inwards. Some cargo space is supplied by paired storage lockers underneath, suitable for several ammunition boxes, fuel rod canisters, or other small items.

Titanium grill lockers between each bench allow for additional weapons or supplies, enough to stack at six EMS bags on top of each other.

-Anon's Ash Box: 47/50 Iron Spheres left. A number of oddly heavy, 1/2" iron orbs with a note stating: "Toss it out and I'll see what I can do for you - Anon."

Only Operators may have this item, and may only carry ONE at a time.

*Currently in possession of: EVERYONE.

 

-Antique Dildo of Possible Time Marenipulation: created by either Doctor Harlon, Runemaster Rhoda, or Glyphmaster Suisan (nopony knows whom, and the few record keepers in Canterlot are MUCH too terrified to even speculate which) on one of those rainy days where you just can't figure out what to do with yourself.

Coming in at a decently hefty 11" long and 3" in diameter, this rubber horse phallus possesses the incredibly dangerous ability to rewind time on a living being's sexual pleasure, essentially depriving them of orgasm until they either stop the effect themselves, if they're the one using it, or the one using it on them ends the process. Frightening!

Nopony's sure where its current location is, as it seems to move around on it's own... either that or it gets used often.

*Created by Lann's master hoofwork, with aid from Jeff and Krinza.

*MUST be trained in order to utilize

*One is owned by Jeff, other four are kept in the Armory for general use

 

-H.A.L.O Parachutes: five sets of high altitude primary and secondary chutes in a secured backpack with full rigging. Created with mythril-infused spider silk by Lann's master hoofwork, the titanium components were forged by Krinza, thus making each set light, highly difficult to damage, and quite sturdy.

Slowfall and float enchanted by Spiral to allow a standard cruising speed of 60MPH when gliding, though can be controlled by the user to descend quicker or slower at will.

-Thermal Masking Ghillie Suits: five custom-made, human-only ghillie suits meant for use in most terrain, though Lann must know what area an Operator is going into in order to retrofit it.

Featuring extensive hoofwork from Lann's master weaving skills, the base layers were produced from a composite of numerous spider silks, including several Spectral-types from the Moors, and one Planar-type bolt that Lann is unable to recall where she bought it from.

Further augmarented and finalized with an extremely rare and expensive dampening material, rendering the wearer invisible to detection castings, glyphs, runes, and sigils.

ITEMOLOGY NOTES:

 

#1: Artifact refers to a weapon or armor that cannot be damaged easily, and requires immense amounts of harm done to be destroyed.

*If left alone, the largest piece of an Artifact will repair itself completely over the course of 12 hours.

 

#2: Custom-Fit refers to a weapon or armor being difficult for those that are not the current user to utilize.

 

#3: Eldritch refers to the 'weapon' or 'armor' actually coming from a being in pseudo, semi, mostly, or fully physical form, hailing from other dimarensions, realms, and spectrums.

 

#4: Permarenent denotes a weapon or armor that cannot be permarenently damaged or destroyed by most means, whether physical or otherwise.

 

#5: Two-Handed refers to a weapon, whether ranged or melee, that is generally too long or heavy to be used in one hand, though those with far greater than normal strength suffer no ill effects from using such a weapon with one hand.

 

#6: Unique simply means that the weapon cannot be truly copied, as any copies would lack certain knowledges of it's creation or peculiarities, and can be easily identified as forgeries.

 

#7: The various -Forged designations denote a specific material, means of creation, or an item used in the weapon's construction, some of which are viewed as highly positive by certain factions, others of which may be seen negatively.

 

#8: Personal refers to a weapon that has been well used by an individual, and due to wear and personalization would be extremely difficult to NOT distinguish from other copies of the same model.

 

#9: ALL ROLLS GRANTED BY ITEMS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO GAINING ADDITIONAL MODIFIERS UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED!

*This does not include offensive Elemarental enchantmarents that can gain additional bonuses from Dante's Unique: 'Fire On My Target', or the alchemical item Marker

Except for the gloves and soles on the boots, the exterior is covered in small half-triangular, half-oval scales that are an equal mixture of light gray and dark blue, providing excellent neutral colorations that aren't out of place in the Underdark or Void.

The bizarre color-shifting threads used to stitch each hide together constantly roil in dark blue and red colorations, yet are durable enough to resist a diamond-honed edge.

All in all, this is one of the best armor sets created by a certain filly of the Sea's Bounty sub-clan.

A 9" long ironwood hilt is wrapped with antique frost drake hide to provide an excellent grip, and two short runic steel guards grant the wielder fairly good defense for their hand.

The land mass known as Coville was once a large continent far south of Neighsia and far west of Sydneigh, inhabited solely by earth ponies roughly 3,200 years prior to the current era before disappearing from records.

Only a few hooffulls of ponies in Equestria understand some of the peculiar language due to the depressingly low numbers of such slabs in existence, which makes relics such as these highly valuable in the eyes of researchers.

 

One of numerous materials lost throughout Tallus history, Frostame is a crystalline semi-biometal that is roughly as dense as bronze, more ductile than zero-gravity hi-alloy steels, and nearly as difficult to damage as sapphirine, though it fractures like quartz when subjected to specific acute angled blunt force in its raw state.

Thousands of years before the Dynasty formed, the Crystal Kingdom sent thousands of advisors, researchers, and experimarentors to study the strange materials found throughout Equestria as a whole.

Large amounts of Frostame were recovered from what is now the Lower Crystal Empire Plains, and was used in the same mareners as modern coldstones, though Frostame itself is considered a primal Elemarent distantly related to Rime deposits and thus never needs to be reharmonized.

*This particular specimaren was found inside a small amber chunk after being recovered by Sea's Bounty denizens of Cairn Wharf

At a current value of 1,000 Bits, proper treatmarent and polishing would easily double the market value, though the extreme rarity of a raw piece makes it considerably more valuable than first appearances would suggest.

 

-Adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls

 

An unusually sturdy stinger approximately 2" long and serrated snapping mandibles indicate this to be most likely from a 'soldier' caste, or perhaps a specialized species as a whole.

This particular one is definitely extinct so far as Equestrian researchers know due to a number of preserved examples, and hasn't been noted elsewhere on Tallus.

 

From direct observation, it may have links to the Mechano-Planar Rift, home of the Constructs.

Island's Grace coconuts are a rarity amongst the Ferron and jealously guarded, particularly due to being found drifting in the hazardous sea washes from the Crag Moors all the way to the Mareixican coastline.

When a living being pinches the three "eyes", in reality seed-pores, this tiny coconut's top can be cleanly torn off to expose a thick, delicious smelling and tasting milk, though curiously without any flesh inside.

Upon drinking the substance, living beings experience a rapid, long lasting healing effect that rivals the best of modern regeneration elixirs.

*The consumer MUST roll [1d6+1] <Island's Grace Restoration each turn until a maximum of 10 turns have passed

*IF the consumer has not regenerated at least 40HP, on the 11th turn they will then automagically, and PAINFULLY, regenerate an additional 20HP or 25% of their HP, whichever is less

 

-Nautilus Pearl: while not round, at all, this squiggly rainbow colored 'leaf' is actually the pearl formed from a Nautilus, and when infused to armor grants some of the previous owner's protective qualities.

*UTILIZED to construct the Blackhorn

 

*****

RELICTED CONSTRUCT WEAPON:

An imposing, heavily overbuilt, squat shotgun featuring green body paint with black trim paint, the ergonomics balancing brutal military design and comfortable civil shooting standards.

A ridiculously thick, partial sound suppressing barrel with an adjustable venting dial ahead of the chamber which prevents overheating seems to have been explicitly designed for extended engagements.

Currently features a standard picatinny rail, occupied by a set of basic iron sights front and rear.

Similar to those found on other Construct weapons, a curiously named rectangular optic with target analysis and identification systems is mounted off right at a 45 degree angle, allowing either the irons or optic to be used without scope creep.

While it IS chambered for 12 gauge shells, and can still accept them, the Construct biotechnology used to approximate the human specific shells has taken an entirely different route: a fully automated regenerative matrix produces a select number of shells each turn, randomly, via unknown means.

A frictionless drum magazine complete with a proto-steel interlinked shell clip system allows Blackhorn to (theoretically) feed infinitely.

Due to the previous limitations, Clemency must tell or manually operate Blackhorn to accept which type of shell he desires each turn, indicated by one of three icons in the optic's rear plate: three finned flechettes, a solid rod, or a finned dart.

*No further data is known.

*Takes double damage from Lightning Elements which will also shut it down for 1 turn while the system reboots, and can be temporarily knocked out of commission by EMP weapons

*Though attuned to Clemency, Blackhorn will, with his permission, allow other Operators to take it into the field, though must be returned IMMEDIATELY after an Operation is completed

While the alloyed armor used to create the physical forms of Rift constructs is impossible to replicate, they provide exceptional protection against casters and others skilled in directed esoteric abilities, returning a portion of said harm done using a unique electromagnetic gravitational effect that is capable of bypassing shielding, striking most attackers unerringly.

-When enchanted to armor, if Clemency is struck by an offensive weapon Elemarental enchantmarents, Casting, Druidry, Necromarecy, Psionicism, Shamareism, or any other non-physical forms of harm, he is granted an AUTOMATIC defensive [1d6+X] <Dissonant Gravity ability

Partially completed by the end of hostilities, after it's abandonmarent the original S.O.L.G. was seized by the Grey Men, repurposed for use to coincide with the Belkan Federation's attempted continental takeover of Osea.

Unlike Stonehenge, which was intended to protect against the remnants of asteroid Ulysses 1994XF04, the original S.O.L.G. was purely designed to attack ground targets, particularly cities and heavily fortified military installations which would otherwise require penetrating nuclear weaponry, and it's predecessor, the M-S.O.L.G., is equipped for the same purposes.

Again unlike the original, this variant is armed with an array of three consecutive mass driver cannons, six racks of anti-spacecraft missiles, and a small TLS (Tactical Laser System) capable of wiping out a single squadron of aircraft, although it needs time to recharge between uses.

This version, far smaller than the original designs, retains exceptional electronics, communications, and signal intelligence packages, a semi-autonomous matrix that will defend itself if attacked, electromagnetic and radar scanning capabilities, and a 40MM ground-sight aperture lens for sighting targets.

For it's size, it is capable of deploying an impressive amount of firepower.

*STATUS: extent of damage unknown

 

-Small Mass Driver: an electromagnetic mass driver that delivers a 5-pound tungsten rod at approximately 2,400MPH, capable of outright annihilating a superheavy tank or even the hardiest of super-bombers.

*Ammunition remaining: 20/20

*Utilizes a [1d6+40] roll, up to twice per Operation.

 

-Medium Mass Driver: an EM mass driver that delivers a 10-pound tungsten rod at approximately 2,200MPH, capable of flattening an underground bunker or destroying the majority of a large mansion.

*Ammunition remaining: 8/10

*Utilizes a [1d6+60] roll, and can be deployed once per Operation

 

-Large Mass Driver: an EM mass driver that delivers a 20-pound tungsten rod at approximately 2,000MPH, capable of flattening a colossal marension or collapsing all but the largest naval ships.

*Ammunition remaining: 4/5

*Utilizes a [1d6+100] roll, and can be deployed once every other Operation.

 

-Space-borne Missile Racks: two fire-and-forget micro-QAAM missile racks, and two guided heavy micro-SAAM missile racks remaining in reserve, located on Sunside and Moonside rack arrays.

These missiles have no targeting solutions and are only used to defend the M-S.O.L.G. against close to medium ranged space-borne threats.

 

-Tactical Laser System: a large component of the M-S.O.L.G.'s weapons array, this TLS is virtually the same used by the highly experimarental prototype FALKEN, one of the few superiority aerofighters still capable of being built on Strangereal.

Featuring a second-of-angle firing solution guided by either the 40MM aperture lens or a pilot helmet's built in targeting software.

The M-S.O.L.G.'s thorium reactor, along with its solar collecting sails, are required to unleash this fearsome weapon, though the smaller size means it cannot effectively target and destroy the same number of targets that the original was capable of.

*When deploying the TLS, from one to five targets may be isolated and registered as hostile, whereupon the M-S.O.L.G. will delegate 5x [1d6+20] <Orbital Tactical Laser strikes upon it's targets, though this can only be used ONCE every other Operation

While dual-bladed weaponry such as this example are typically difficult to perform effective attacks with, Krinza introduced a number of engineering principles to control the sweep and arc by thinning and lightening the blades slightly, allowing a perfect center of balance in the exact center of the haft.

Later splitting the haft near-center, then removing 1 hoof length due to an error, Krinza carved a deep V-notch into each new hilt and imbued a Grifter Claw, allowing Dante to disconnect the twinblade and use each as a long handled blade, despite their awkward length.

Indurian:

It is forged of mythril, making it both lightweight and sturdy, and was constructed in the shape of a lotus flower. Specifically, the petals were made to bend inwards towards the wielder ever so slightly, and the edges of the petals, which stuck out almost an inch from the outer frame, had been reinforced so as to not be chopped off in battle.

Still, despite this, the thing was missing two petals. Much to the knight's annoyance.

Clocking in at a total of 51" and 4 pounds, this blade is made of hand-forged steel, with gold leaf accents and a large silver-blue gem in the pommel. It features a vertically split crossguard and an orange-leather-wrapped handle, inlaid with simple designs, almost appearing to be some kind of strange tattoo.

Indurian himself etched two names into the wide section of steel just above the crossguard: "Celene," and below this, in smaller script, "Lillianne."

The raised central spine of the leaf-shaped blade is etched with a thin strip of floral patterns, with a simple high-carbon steel hilt, featuring a minimalistic crossguard, a handle wrapped in plain black leather, and a bare, rounded pommel.

A simple, yet tried and true design, this is the first work of the burgeoning smith's career.

ZODIAC RELIC:

This particular one contains the full metaphysical essence of Andrammalech the Wroth, also known as the Ghost of Fury, one of twelve legendary Lucavi Daemons that served under Altima, the High Seraph's command.

With the Capricorn Stone's possession, either Indurian and Andrammalech can make use of its powers, depending on whichever one is dominant at the time.

With Indurian conscious, he is able to breach the spectrums of Tallus and infuse their shared body with greatly improved vigor and strength, or allow Andrammalech the ability to separate himself from Indurian into a somewhat degraded copy of his original body using Tallus' seemingly inexhaustible arcane energies.

-Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

 

*****

-Modified Stalker Exoskeleton (Crystal-Forged, Custom-Fit, Experimental Tallus Crystal-Tech, Tallus-made, Personal): recovered from what was obviously a bad situation, in an even worse state, Ivan’s summoned Duty Exoskeleton WAS restored to basic functionality by the combined efforts of Naliyna, Helping Hoof, Lann, Krinza, and Aiutante. Before recycling almost everything except for the few pieces of a Flash artifact, of course. ("We had to build it and take it apart, otherwise Krinza wouldn't be satisfied." -Naliyna)

Fully gutting the wires, electronics, servos, and virtually everything else, including the bodysuit, the five set about copying the design using Tallus-only native materials and meta-materials, which subsequently ignores the Era Lock entirely.

Krinza chose to ignore the original's basic protection, instead utilizing woven hi-alloy Gozkan steel meshing underneath overlapping, partially flexible steel plates, enhancing mobility without burdening the frame. This removes the notorious habit of Zone exoskeletons having numerous bullet traps, and grants it a marginal level of flexibility.

Helping Hoof's technical knowledge on scribing multiple runic, arcane, and Elemarental sigils, mostly gained from Spiral’s tutelage, across complex interconnected mechanisms allowed him to further reinforce the armor’s base characteristics. Not only do these partially protect against magic, no weight is added.

Lann's expertise in human styled clothing allowed her to replace the internal jumpsuit entirely using a (relatively safe) Planar bright green leather-like substance retrieved from the Moors, and was able to integrate Naliyna's unusual requests to interweave hundreds of flexible gel-like Empire crystalline fibers throughout it.

Using a great deal of her (definitely banned, though not actually illegal to utilize) knowledge from Hodch's teachings, Aiutante went the route of imbuing the connected metallic, pseudo-metallic, and crystalline components with greater flexibility, despite the fact that hi-alloy Gozkan steel and Empire crystalline materials normally resist such.

Further modifying the external armor and internal components with (highly banned, yet not TECHNICALLY illegal) micro-enchantmarents to give all components a high degree of latent magical malleability, also making the entire exoskeleton simpler to improve upon in the future, Aiutante finished off her work by inscribing a a confoundingly difficult to translate anti-shock enchantmarent. As a result, only the heaviest weapons would produce recoil adverse enough to effect Ivan's accuracy.

Stumped for a while on how to make the armor 'move' when Ivan needs to, Naliyna's quiet studies on adapting human technologies to Crystal technologies gave her an idea:

Devising a bio-crystalline locomotive feedback system, essentially a personalized, miniature crystal hololith (without an InterPony) that imprints Ivan's movements, then translates them into degrees, fractions, and force of motion. Building off Lann’s work, Naliyna wove the thousands of Empire crystal strands together and flex-programmed the entire jumpsuit to, as a whole, act as an outer layer of musculature.

Despite the process being a bit flawed, this allows Ivan to utilize the exoskeleton as if it were an external, albeit heavy, layer of skin: as such he is able to ‘feel’ pressure and temperature as per normal. The armor translates enough data through the crystalline bio-mesh that Ivan is able to physically feel objects at an almost-normal state while being fully protected.

Satisfied that she was able to modify the system with little more than a hum, Naliyna went on to integrate a complex series of interlinked heatstones and coldstones throughout the frame's interior, giving it a highly advanced air-conditioning system in the process.

Lastly, the five debated what color to paint it, and settled for giving it a coat of 'everything' using a mixture of most every metal in the Workshop using a flawless diamond as a base.

-Armor Value: provides 5DR to the entire body, except the neck

-Armor Class: Heavy Exosuit, Minorly Modified

-Enchantmarent Slots: 0/2 remaining

-Resonant Slots: 0/2 remaining

-Bio-Crystalline Enhancement #1: the Undercharged Crystalline Mesh-Fiber Weave greatly increase Ivan's own physical strength, adding +2 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls; furthermore it is incredibly difficult to disarm weapons, shields, and tools

-Bio-Crystalline Enhancemarent #2: Temperature Regulation System allows Ivan to control the exterior heat and cold levels with little more than telling it what he desires, internally he may modify the humidity and temperature with nothing more than a direct order

*Magical Enhancemarent #1: 4 Kanpri-Diamondine Artifact Containers (+1 in the Workshop currently containing pieces of a Flash artifact)

-Mechanical Enhancement #1: Moderately Tuned Tallus-made Servos allow Ivan to walk and jog at normal speeds; as such Ivan cannot roll higher than [1d6+1] when attempting to move although he is able to utilize Block/Evasion/Reaction Speed normally

-Mechanical Enhancemarent #2: Phase-Shifting Paint adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls

-Mechanical Enhancement #3: Solidified Bio-Crystalline Fibers allow Ivan to utilize Heavy Weapons WITHOUT penalties, except for weapons that are either too heavy or unwieldy (or both) to use

-Mechanical Enhancement #4: this Exoskeleton may be dropped (or thrown) up to 50M and land without suffering any damage, regardless of angle

-Utility Enchantmarent #1: Basic Anomalous Protection Suite grants a [1d6+5] <Elemental Resistance roll that protects against all forms of exclusively non-penetrating magic, including Druidry, Elemarental effects, Mystical, and Sorcery

*Ignores 1/2 of ALL Radiation and similar effects, can be modified further

 

-Modified Stalker Exohelmet (Crystal-Forged, Custom-Fit, Experimental Tech, Personal, Tallus-made): copied and built from scratch due to the original's damage, this Stalker Exohelmet’s functionality has been greatly expanded through the combined efforts of Naliyna, Helping Hoof, Lann, Auitante, and Krinza.

Helping Hoof, with some assistance from Krinza, redesigned the entire blueprint, expanding the interior several times to accommodate a complete Temperature Regulation System for Naliyna, additional space for Lann's custom work, and one of the last remaining enhanced radio suites developed by Spiral.

Improving upon the original's heavy weight by adding more, Helping Hoof cast five pieces together from a newly acquired block of Gozkan hi-alloy steel. Fit, then melded together by Krinza, the pair inscribed an extensive set of runes and sigils that would protect it from shattering, even against a minotaur’s weaponry.

Aiutante's contributions were twofold: first runing over the melded seams using micro-sigils which allow the helmet to absorb and delocalize damage while reducing all but the most extreme of concussions to virtually nothing (INCREDIBLY banned though not illegal).

The second of Auitante’s inclusions came in the form of a heavy sound dampening sigil (possibly not banned, but miserably time consuming) that wouldn't interfere with the electronic systems, and can dampen exterior sounds down to approximately 5%.

Passed over to Lann, she layered a large amount of purified Tallus-native rubber across most the interior as an anti-spalling feature, then covered by ten layers of comfortable, sweat-wicking cotton and silk blends.

Seeing the chance to put his Grandmaster Smith skills to the test, Krinza was able to incorporate two large visor lenses, comprised of a multi-layered diamondine and rubynine meta-composite. This allows the lenses to dim, refract, and enhance light at Ivan's command, providing a (mostly) magical thermal or night vision system.

-Armor Value: provides 4DR to the entire head

-Armor Class: Modified-Heavy

-Enchantmarent Slots: 0/2 remaining

-Resonant Slots: 1/1 remaining

-Bio-Crystalline Enhancemarent #1: Temperature Regulation System allows Ivan to control the interior's heat, cold, and humidity levels with little more than telling it what he desires

-Electronic Enhancement #1: a fully integrated Enhanced Squad-Command Radio System, one of the few remaining from before Spiral's disappearance, allows Ivan to communicate and sync with nearby Operators up to a range of 10 miles, also functioning as a transmitter up to 25 miles

-Magical Enhancemarent #1: cannot be Blinded or Defeaned without extreme measures

-Magical Enhancemarent #2: grants a [1d6+3] <Night Vision OR <Thermal roll

-Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: negates the duration & effects of Concussions unless caused by excessively powerful blows or force

-Mechanical Enhancemarent #2: a brand new, Tallus-made micro-flashlight created by Helping Hoof and Krinza, grants a [1d6+4] <M.Flashlight roll

-Mechanical Enhancemarent #3: an integral closed-circuit micro/macro air filtration system, based on Helping Hoof's understanding of Spiral's late technical knowledge, grants an absurd degree of protection from airborne particulates. Nearly all toxins, chemicals, elements, and even magic based pseudo-particles, including those analogous or vaguely similar to radiation, have an extremely difficult time penetrating the helmet's severely overbuilt rear-facing design

Capable of firing continuously for up to 5 minutes on end before barrel overheating becomes an issue due to Anon replacing the original barrel with a rapid heat exchanging Lumen-kanpri-tungsten composite alloy.

["Hopefully Princess Luna won't be too angry at me. Why might she be furious? Using her preferred metal for anything other than armor is.. honestly? A severe waste. I needed it at the time and she still owes me two games of strip poker. Nah, not that kind. You know how Sea's Bounty mares fear taking off their socks? We were going to hit their Beach Fort, play cards with a bunch and see just how many socks we could win off them. What a- I'd give them back after the rounds are done, the fuck you think I'd be doing!?" -Anonymous, Third Human Gestalt]

The helicopter electrical plugin system was replaced by a single unprotected medium-sized power crystal, tuned for precise voltage and amperage by Spiral, which was later shunted into an armored kanpri compartment and tuned once more via Anon's newish expertise in electrical systems.

Originally requested by one of Razorback's First 100, Anonymous has spent considerable time salvaging electronics throughout the Third Era, and begun developing new variants of laser targeting systems. Primarily focused on extending functional range and improving durability, also looking into methods to reduce shock from heavy rifles and the like, most of his efforts have been rewarded with high quality sidegrade variants such as this one.

'Attached' between the barrels is a semi-Float core improved laser targeting system, with greatly extended range and a pseudo-gel anti-shock compound to keep it stable during firing.

Came with roughly a hundred boxed and paired 250-round cartridge belts, a manual, and an impressively large cleaning kit with instructions. Formerly left on a heavy pintle mount on the south side of Razorback Fortress' main Western Gate overlooking the clearing, when otherwise not lugged around by Hollow.

Was placed in the Armory by Hodch due to more than a few Tartarus Air Corps. pegasi using it as a springboard. He's still quite angry at their shenanigans.

Due to the Zone's intense background radiation, interference from anomalies, propensity for bizarre damage, and other problems, all PDA's transferred, sold, or smuggled in have received extensive tinkering, either by Ecologists, the Military, internal, or external factions.

Hardened against both EMP and radiation by a clear lead-quartz armored plate atop a full color LED screen, the casing is replaced by a steel or titanium alloy, then further protected by layering various artifacts, given internal microbattery produced by tuning a Flash chunk, and lastly an integral pseudo-GPS regional mapping system completes the ensemble.

*Functions as a [1d6+4] <Map so long as regional data is acquired

*Functions as a [16+2] <Mapping System

*Functions as a radio and transceiver with a 25KM radius

 

*****

One of the more common artifacts found through the Zone, Slugs are noteworthy due to the fact that they only form in a Fruit Punch anomaly.

These pools of post-radioactive acids have exceptionally corrosive properties and can injure Stalkers within a 3M radius, which lead scientists to question how the restorative capability even functions.

*When worn Ivan may not suffer from Bleeding

*Grants a [1d6+4] <Recovery roll that heals and stops up to Moderate Bleeding, also giving +2HP per turn for [1d6] turns

*Increases the damage Ivan takes from Fire, Poison/Acid, and chemicals by 1/4; causes +1 Radiation per turn

-Price: 2,500 rubles (2,500 Rushyan Snootles)

 

Another highly common Zone artifact, the Sparkler is well known for increasing the wearer's physical endurance and stamina regeneration, making them highly appreciated on long treks so long as a source of anti-radiation is available.

Formed exclusively in the highly volatile and extremely widespread Electro anomaly, one with a 10M electrical hazard radius that is progressively more lethal towards the center, Sparklers are more curious to the Ecologist faction than Flash artifacts due to their unusual creation and the bizarre, wholly unknown elemental makeup.

While distinctly related to the Flash artifact, Sparklers are incapable of electrocuting the bearer: instead, a Sparkler is able to actively ‘smooth’ out fluctuations in electric field densities. One proposed use (which was rarely been deployed or in use throughout the Zone during Clear Sky’s time) was as a power converter for electrical devices, particularly sensitive electronics, but WAS definitely used in solderers, welders, and other necessary equipment.

Lastly, and perhaps the most bizarre fact, the Sparkler is only visible from Midnight to 5AM in the Zone. If dropped or lost, a Sparkler becomes completely invisible, and cannot even be located using a Detector.

*Adds +1 to all Block/Evasion/Reaction Speed/Sprint rolls to either himself or ONE ally each turn, but Ivan must be able to touch said ally

*Grants a [1d6+4] <Psionic-Block defensive ability, effective only against Psionic damage and abilities

*Causes Fatigue to occur 30% slower

*Increases Lightning Damage by 1/4 and causes +1 Radiation each turn

-Price: 2,500 rubles (2,500 Rushyan Snootles)

*****

The image of Belltower snarling across the bottom half in black platinum covers the mouth section, giving it a particularly intimidating appearance, especially to ponies.

-Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls

-Reactive Enchantmarent #1: grants an AUTOMATIC defensive [1d6+X] <Piercing Mist Blackspike ability that ignores DR and is virtually impossible to Block or Evade, returning harm to the FIRST attacker during the previous turn, where +X is the highest physical modifier from any attacker's rolls that successfully struck Jeff during the previous turn

-Utility Enchantmarent #1: adds +2 to all Iron Will & Leadership rolls

-Utility Enchantmarent #2: adds +2 to a SINGLE standard skill during an Operation

 

Composed of high-modulus polyethylene interspersed with thin titanium-carbide plating, allowing it to resist great amounts of impact and reducing it's overall weight compared to the more traditional, thickly layered kevlar helmets.

Comes with a front mount for NVG systems and ARC side rails; the right rail is occupied by a low-profile LED flashlight, and the left by Jeff's live-feed camera.

The shell is colored and styled to match his armor, as well as modified to accommodate his half-mask.

*****

The blade, hoofle/handle, and short blocky guards are all made from excellent stock diamondine layered atop kanpri, giving it a steadily shifting blue-red-purple, though tinges of white across the blade's edge can be viewed at uncommon intervals.

Like most specialized weapons from that era, this one contains a vaguely sentient batpony assassin thoughtform that functions as an 'assistant' of sorts. Though it has no sapience and is unable to do more than guide the user, a small amount of caution is still advised.

Unlike most diamondine weapons this one is relatively light, so to speak, only weighing a full pound.

*Acquired by Jeff from a Lunar Collective crypt north of Basin Village in the Moors.

-Melee Weapon Class: Light, Modified

-Base Modifier: adds +5 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

-Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: unknown

-Offensive Enchantmarent #2: grants a [1d6+6] <Nightfang non-Elemarental attack that ignores DR and inflicts Bleeding against living targets; also causing double damage to Fragile AND Armored/Heavily Armored targets

-Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+6] <Sacred Thirst non-Elemarental attack that drains either the life force of living targets, known as Anima, OR the non-life force of deceased targets, known as Animus, restoring the user's HP or S.HP by the result-2. This ability does not function against most Eldritch beings, or specific Planar beings that are neither alive, dead, or a combination of the two; furthermore it cannot be resisted nor the harm reduced.

*SHOULD a single target contain both Anima & Animus energies, the damage is instead TRIPLED and the target will then suffer a -4 penalty to all rolls for the next 6 turns

-Offensive Enchantmarent #3: grants a [1d6+6] <Void-Flux Bite strike that ignores DR, furthermore causing any wounds inflicted by this weapon to be difficult to heal from

-Utility Enchantmarent #1: when used by a living being, this weapon grants a [1d6+6] <Assassin's Senses ability which subtly guides the user's strikes towards the weak points of a specific target, indicated by the weapon itself 'pulling' towards the most viable one to exploit; this ability may only be used a maximum of two times per unique target

-Sword and Board: can be used in tandem with Small Arms or other 1-handed weapons, but may not use with 2-Handed weapons

 

-Melee Weapon Class: Light

-Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

-Offensive Enchantmarent: grants a [1d6] <Shadow Elemarental attack

 

Several sets of segmarented plates extend from the knuckles up to the elbow, with a series of batpony runes scrawled across each arm: Honorable, Leader, Chivalrous, Pathfinder, Negotiator, Wingplayer, and Mango Carrier, the last one coming from a shared pegasi-batpony story involving Veterans carrying around young fliers, teaching them to fly properly.

Each knuckle has a black platinum oval, emblazoned and inscribed with powerful unicorn runes and gryphon glyphs of lightning.

Ten short claws are embedded in the fingers, and can be locked into place for constant use, allowing Jeff a slight pierce capability with them.

*Grandmaster reforged by Krinza, Perfected by Luna

*Touched by the Empress

-Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed

-Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+2] <Lightning Elemarental attack

-Offensive Enchantmarent #3: THREE times per Operation, Jeff may utilize a <Dispersion effect, causing 50% of the total damage inflicted to jump to the closest enemy target as an arcane beam of non-elemarental energies; if an opponent Blocks the weapon this crystal is enchanted to, that damage will automatically strike them instead. Unless fully Evaded, this effect MUST always occur

-Offensive Enchantmarent #3: TWICE per Operation, Jeff may use the Impact Seal imbued within both to Stun any targets in close range using all Assault rolls as normal, or use against heavily armored opponents or fortifications to deal double damage

-Mechanical Modification #1: Armored Gauntlet Block: adds 2DR and grants an additional <Block roll when defending in close combat

-Mechanical Modification #2: Claws: when extended and used in combat, these armored claws have Armor Pierce 1 (negates 1DR) and automatically cause Bleeding

-Utility Modification #3: Sticky: any items held cannot be disarmed

 

The entire lower section of the claw, an otherwise brittle and rather useless material, has been removed and replaced with a 14" long handle of softened, enchanted ironwood further reinforced via woven steel wire, the human styled improvemarents adding greater durability and reducing shock on impact.

The handle was then rewrapped entirely using four carefully molded regal drake scales as they provide exceptional gripping qualities, which were then overtaken by purple and black Void tendrils, giving the weapon a distorted, constantly moving appearance.

Krinza was careful enough not to disturb the weapon's transfusion by Princess Luna, though like all weapons created using Void materials, this one is best kept in the hands of of those that are not easily affected by strange phenomarena.

*Grandmaster transfused by Princess Luna

Overall, the TMP is a simple, short barreled blowback-operated submachine gun using high impact resistant polymer for a minimum life expectancy of 30 years.

Designed for excellent concealmarent and portability, it is quite easy to maintain even by a novice operator. Unlike most SMG's, the TMP comes with an integral forward grip with a select-fire switch, allowing it to be used in either semi-automatic or automatic modes depending on user preference.

Although most 1st Generation TMP's were not issued a stock, later versions and variants did, greatly increasing accuracy at ranges beyond 50M.

Not as widespread as the H&K MP5 and later models, the Steyr TMP is nonetheless highly effective in close quarters, and even more so when used by skilled hands.

DIPLOMATIC ITEMS:

Bearing or presenting this badge proves Cheto's status as a confirmed Equestrian-Aligned Diplomat, at the rank of First Hoof. Besides the lack of additional ornamarentation and wear, this badge was definitely created before Cheto's arrival.

*CONDITIONS: as a First Hoof diplomat, Cheto is granted the following diplomatic laws, rights, and privileges:

-the lawful treatmarent expected of an Equestrian diplomat across Tallus, excluding Stalliongrad, Rushya, and their aligned territories. For obvious reasons this does not apply to batpony controlled regions and those Ferron clans that do not accept diplomats from any factions.

-the lawful treatmarent of an Equestrian diplomat whom is not to be detained, abducted, subjected to illegitimate laws, rules, regulations, or codes of conduct.

-the right to be protected by a Mareguard consisting of two equines of his choosing according to status as a First Hoof diplomat, regardless of their weaponry or armor selections.

-the right to move unhindered throughout Tallus, excluding Stalliongrad, Rushya, and their aligned territories, whether by hoof, carriage, train, or translocation matrice without fee or paymarent, including Mareguards and Razorback Company members, according to the Treaty of Canterlot circa 28,940. Cheto is granted the right to pay for transit if he so chooses regardless of diplomatic status.

-the right to sign documarents, treaties, pacts, and enact trade deals to any factions across Tallus, excluding Stalliongrad, Rushya, and their aligned territories, for the benefit of the Solar and Lunar factions or their allies. The same rights are accorded to Razorback Company through Cheto's efforts, but must exclude sole allies of Razorback Company with no diplomatic status of their own.

-the right to gain access to noble and royal courts upon request, barring wartime, economic, or social conflicts of interest.

-the lawful right to trade and barter with all factions, excluding Stalliongrad, Rushya, and their aligned territories, for the benefit of Razorback Company. This does not extend to banned weaponry, item, enchantmarents, services, or information.

-the right to bear any armor of his discretion during solely diplomatic functions, though he is not allowed to carry any weaponry whatsoever during solely diplomatic functions.

-the privilege to demarend a Trial of Objection in the Canterlot Silver Court of Nobles against all accusers regardless of faction should he or his actions be slandered or considered invalid.

-the privilege to purchase property and items outside of Razorback Company's purview, excluding those from Stalliongrad, Rushya, and their aligned territories.

-the privilege of acquiring diplomatic commarend and functions under the When Needs Must clause relating to the Canterlot Treaty, circa 29,940.

 

Within contains a set of basic contractual obligations on how, when, and why Cheto is to provide diplomatic services for Razorback Company, a short list of Equestrian diplomatic rules he must abide by in doing so, what conditions and obligations he is subject to, brief stipulations on act during diplomatic functions, and furthermore explains the conditions that he is expected to adhere to.

*As proof of its authenticity, the contract is officially stamped, sealed, signed, and lastly enchanted by Princess Celestia herself.

ONCE every third turn, Lont may activate his armor's Revenge Seal against a single attacker, reflecting ALL physical damage caused by melee or ranged weapons to the attacker as a thin, lightless beam of crushing force that bypasses DR, causes double damage to Fragile targets, ignores Shields, and cannot be avoided regardless of range

*Should the opponent try to evade, fly, run, or Teleport, this effect will bypass those attempts with perfect tracking at an inherent Speed of 20

*It can readily be assumed that the Revenge Seal's effects are proto-sentient, and may not be Equestrian in nature

 

Spiral made numerous modifications to the miniaturized thermal optic system, allowing for greater clarity in adverse weather conditions.

Instead of leaving the face exposed, Krinza forged a mythril faceplate to match the rest of the helmet's design, using a thin, clear diamondine circle for the right eyeslit to protect against debris or shrapnel.

Like all military grade weaponry during Ferrundi's sub-current and current era, one would traditionally require a standard Semi-Exosuit in order to operate one properly as it uses a highly advanced 4 gauge titanium shotshell, instead of standard 30MM cannon shells as cost, recoil, and weight saving measures.

The Spiker, aptly named by Walker pilots, is able to utilize standard ammunition, such as flechettes and buckshot, but is also capable of firing APFSDS (Armor-Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding-Sabot rounds) slugs and finned darts employed with a stabilized Livermorium penetrator, an element similar to iridium, specially designed to punch through multiple layers of metal and composite plating, as well as the thick hide, muscle, and bones of common predators.

This Spiker, once owned by Lont before leaving the military, was thoroughly modified and overhauled by Anon, implementing a series of shock absorbing compass springs in the buttstock, porting the barrel, and adding a muzzle brake to reduce recoil to manageable (for human) levels.

On it's own, a single Spiker does little against the average giant war machines and monsters that roam Ferrundus's open plains, save for an experienced veteran specialized in the mass produced weapon. This instead limits use to massed volley fire against weak points, essentially giving human squads the power to cut down or delimb enemies from 20 to 100 times their own size.

Due to the size of the Spiker's ammunition, the paired underbarrel tubular magazines are only capable of holding 3 shells apiece, along with one in the chamber of course, for a maximum of 6+1.

-Base Modifier: considered a Heavy Shotgun, adds +4 to all Shotgun rolls

-Ammunition Capacity: 7/7 shells, may carry 28 additional shells with a maximum of 14 Livermorium slugs or darts in reserve

-Ammunition Type #1: buckshot & flechettes have a maximum optimal range of 100M with a -1 penalty to all Heavy Shotgun rolls per 50M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 200M. *Flechettes ignore 4DR

Sharing a great deal of similarities with most modern motorcycles, the Outrider's low profile can be compared to traditional racing motorcycles due to it's heavy duty single-wheel suspensions and it's large ground-gripping tires, further reinforced with plexigrade spikes for additional traction. The rear storage compartments, though small, give the rider somewhat more mission flexibility than one would expect.

Armed with a single M249 mounted to the front and right of the driver, the majority of it's civil grade fiberglass panels were replaced with a semi-lightweight steel alloy, increasing it's weight to a somewhat dismal level.

If one gripe could be made of it, the additional strain on it's engine is a bit more than than Lont would have preferred, though alternatives are currently being researched by Krinza.

Mallia Castella:

 

*****

Carapace place is commonly seen amongst the lower ranks of Enginseers due to their excellent protective qualities for accompanying armored vehicles and performing repairs in field, yet shunned by the rest of the AdMech as an unnecessary layer of inconvenience.

This one has been customized with numerous integrated devices, though as it's quality is quite low it isn't as durable as Mallia would prefer.

-Armor Value: 1DR

-Armor Class: Medium Helmet

-Electronic Slots: 0/5 remaining

-Electronic Enhancemarent #1: Common Quality Commbead, allows the receiving of unecrypted and encrypted messages on standard channels

-Electronic Enhancemarent #2: Common Quality Voxcaster, allows the sending of unencryped and encrypted messages on standard channels

-Electronic Enhancemarent #3: Common Quality Rebreather, allows the filtration of most gases and chemicals, excepting corrosives and Mystical Poisons & Toxins

-Electronic Enhancemarent #4: Common Quality Photo-Visor, prevents being Blinded from flash grenades and most forms of bright or dazzling lights

-Electronic Enhancemarent #5: Poor Quality Integrated Preyvision Goggles, functions as Thermals and adds +1 to a SINGLE Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival roll

-Mechanical Enhancemarent: reduces the duration & effects of Concussions by 1/2

 

Composed of rigid, layered armaplas plates, a heat-absorbent plastic and metal composite, protecting the entire torso, legs, arms, and groin.

While the gaps between each plate are somewhat larger than those found in flak armor, carapace armor is considerably more protective, though this one must have come from one of the smaller Forge-Worlds due to it's somewhat shoddy mareufacture.

-Armor Value: 2DR

-Armor Class: Medium

-Electronic Slots: 0/2 remaining

-Electronic Enhancemarent #1: Common Quality Auspex Unit. An interface screen mounted on the right arm linked to a number of analysis and scanning systems embedded across the upper torso, granting a [1d6+2] <CQ. Auspex roll, able to detect motion, radiation, toxic or otherwise harmful gasses, electronic equipmarent, as well as living beings and their relative vital signs within a 200M radius.

*Given the quality of the auspex unit it was assigned to, it's machine spirit is fairly happy

ARTIFICER-CLASS LIGHT ARMOR:

Using her knowledge of perhaps thousands of STC wargear designs and the incredibly special, unique, or easily obtainable, non-human materials available on Tallus that she was able to acquire, Inquisitor Flash created her own personalized variant of Flak armor over several months after Razorback Fortress was completed.

Combining the resiliency of durable, alchemically infused alloys with the extreme comfort expected by Tallus materials, this Flak Helmet was designed to provide the maximum possible protection while remaining light enough to not encumber the wearer.

Discarding thousands of of otherwise Administratum Mechanicus approved STC Flak Helmet schematics in favor of a full head AND neck covering design, Inquisitor Flash's custom design on this particular helmet incorporates a flawless diamond PreySense Visor that has been integrally and mechanically attached to the helmet itself, also providing optimal shrapnel protection for the wearer.

Combined with a full chin, mouth, and nose-covering rebreather devised from Tallus materials based upon her Mars-trained knowledge, this helmet is directly comparable to Inquisitorial class variations.

Similar to her bodysuit, it is capable of being resized to fit nearly any base human head size, excepting Ratlings, Ogryn, and especially Space Marines, yet is comfortable enough to wear for weeks, or possibly months, on end. Also contains two human soul-spirits

*The first hailing from Segmentum Pacificus with the name of Luaris Dranaki, a former Imperial Navy Admiral assigned to the Calixus sector using the codename of 'WItch-Two', presumably an Inquisitorial designation

*The second is Adronal Pacose, codenamed Tox-11, an incredibly sour tech-destroyer personality that keeps to himself most of the time. And never, EVER, uses capitalization unless necessary.

-Armor Value: 3DR

-Armor Class: Modified-Light Helmet

-Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2

-Electronic Enhancemarent #1: Best Quality Commbead, grants access to standard, encrypted, and numerous Ordo Chronos and Xenarite channels, able to receive even the weakest signals up to 10 miles away

-Electronic Enhancemarent #2: Best Quality Voxcaster, allows the transmission of standard, encrypted, and numerous Ordo Chronos and Xenarite channels out to 100 miles

-Electronic Enhancemarent #3: Best Quality Rebreather, allows the filtration of most nearly all gasses, chemicals, Poisons & Toxins, and reduces the effects of airborne Elemarental, Eldritch, & Spectral effects by 1/2

-Electronic Enhancemarent #4: Best Quality Photo-Visor, prevents being Blinded from ALL forms of bright lights, whether physical, magical, Elemarental, and Mystical

-Electronic Enhancemarent #5: Best Quality Integrated Preyvision Visors, functions as Thermals with a maximum 500M range, adds +4 to a SINGLE Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival roll

-Mechanical Enhancent #1: reduces the duration & effects of Concussions by 3/4

 

Possibly unintended, this specific set of armor looks more like Graia Pattern Flak Armor combined with AdMech Carapace Design System 6.12, which can be adjusted, repaired, and modified with little problem.

Creating the extremely hardened and moderately specialized forearm mounted Auspex from compositing basic Empire crystalline materials with a number of rare Planar pseudo-metals, the rugged sensor arrays were designed via alchemically produced, highly sensitive arcane meta-materials.

Further bolstered by indepth knowledge of Void Shielding on a micro-scale, she was able to transfer her original Auspex's highly dedicated and loyal Machine Spirit with little difficulty. Being one of Inquisitor Flash's personal Machine Spirits, this one is extremely dedicated and rarely suffers from logic overflow faults.

*As a result of the exceptionally high grade housing, it is incredibly happy, helpful, and highly resistant to damage due to the use of an energy-state pseudo-organic system that she is loathe to explain.

In addition, a pair of twin human souls inhabit the armor itself. (“It’s possible they were part of an.. erm, a certain ‘Project’. Which one in specific, I would rather you not know nor understand. Nothing good came from it.” -Flash)

*Codenamed Pheron and Phenon, both hail from the Outer Segmentum Pacificus world called Jego, a minor Forge-World and Imperial Guard training center.

At some point Flash intended to finish this armor, though either ran out of ideas, boredom, or motivation. Probably the latter.

-Armor Value: 4DR

-Armor Class: Modified Light

-Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 3/3

-Electronic Enhancemarent #1: Best Quality Auspex Unit. A slim, virtually weightless auraplas interface holoscreen mounted on the right arm, linked to a staggeringly high number of analysis, detection, and scanning systems fit within.

A profoundly time consuming system to construct and test, this one is able to detect and analyze nearly all forms of motion, sound, radiation, gasses, liquids, the composition of materials, electronic equipmarent, living beings, their relative physiology, Elemarents, and the most common esoteric facts within a 500M radius.

*Grants a [1d6+4] <BQ. Auspex roll

-Electronic Enhancemarent #2: Artificer-Grade Chroniton Wave Reader. One of the few purely original designs that Flash has been able to construct on Tallus, directly copied from a Necron template, this bafflingly simple function is capable of analyzing, and sometimes predicting, abnormal temporal events.

How it works, why it works, and when it works, only the Inquisitor herself truly knows, although it will readily aid Chisan Nas and Mallia Castella in the prevention of temporal breaches. However, for several obvious reasons this function does NOT like Chisan.

*Grants a [1d6+2] <Chroniton Wave Reader roll

In common service throughout the entire AdMech, Omnissian Axes are considered across the galaxy as the office symbol of Enginseers, regardless of their status, rank, or age.

Due to their wide spread usage as both a reasonably effective weapon and an invaluable tool for assisting with the Rites of Repair, each Enginseer is explicitly demanded (or ordered, depending on their unit) to customize their assigned Omnissian Axe for specific purposes. This one is her original, coming stock from a relatively good sized Forge on Mars.

Comes with an integrated MIU-linked adjustable omni-wrench, a simple gas-plasma cutting torch that can also be used for welding, and a small ceramite prying blade for removing armor panels in a hurry.

Since it's machine spirit is new (again) and hasn't had time to develop any quirks, it will rarely if ever complain.

-Melee Weapon Class: Two-Handed

-Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

-Rites of Repair: adds +1 to all Engineering & Tech-Use rolls when performing in-combat repairs

-Modification: Two-Handed Block: gains an additional Block roll ONLY when using both hands to wield

-Armor Pierce: 1 when 2-Handing

As this one is of rather cheap make, it's machine spirit is prone to fits and may jam often.

-Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Light Energy Weapons rolls.

-Ammunition Class: Pistol Laser, Semi-Automatic

-OVERCHARGE: adds +2 to all Light Energy Weapon rolls and gains Armor Pierce 2, uses 2 charges per shot

-Magazine Capacity: 20/20 shots, comes with 3x Small Power Packs

-Optimal Range: 50M, with a -1 penalty to all Light Energy Weapon rolls per 30M beyond this range

-Maximum Range: 110M

 

Little more than an armaplas body, a Tech Priest built electro-circuit board, an actual trigger, a long lasting ceramite barrel, a standard focusing array, a quality power cell, and a standard machine spirit housing.

As this weapon is of decent make, the machine spirit neither particularly likes nor dislikes its current housing, and so does not jam often.

-Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Light Energy Weapons rolls

-Armor Pierce: 1

-OVERCHARGE: adds +2 to all Light Energy Weapon rolls and gains Armor Pierce 2, uses 2 charges per shot

Unlike the Poor Quality dataslates issued to the Imperial Guard, the Mechanicus Common Quality dataslate is capable of text, video, and schematic storage, much like a smartphone though is considerably more limited as programming is far advanced in the 41st Millennium’s mass produced equipment.

 

Specifically for use by Enginseers to inspect the various electronics and cogitators they come across for data corruption, data compatability, and to provide an additional MIU interface for hacking.

*Grants an additional Tech-Use roll when used to access electronic devices or initiate repairs

 

Guaranteed to function on every mass produced weapon, armor, device, and vehicle throughout the Imperium.

Comes with a number of STC printouts containing information on how to build small las-forges, chemical work stations, small vehicle repair bays, and other necessities.

Unlike the kits issued to Imperial Guard Operators, however, is the addition of a small high tech las-cutter, able to cut, seam, and weld most materials.

Added to this is a miniature fabrication machine fitted with a material scanning auspex for ensuring the tightest of tolerances, capable of nanolathing small parts.

An MIU-compatible auspex inspector is last, capable of determining material compositions.

All devices are powered by the same power packs most laspistols and lasrifles use.

*Adds +1 to and grants an additional Engineering roll when in use

 

*Adds +1 to all Engineering rolls when used

*May not be used with a Tool & Fabrication Kit

 

Created by attaching 400 alloy steel plates of varying shapes to a short length of industrial synthmuscle, embedded with roughly 100 micromotors and actuators, then installed with a self-recharging power cell programmed by a senior Tech Priest to ensure long lasting function, giving it a tentacle like appearance.

This allows prehensile flexibility and enough strength to pick up even Astartes bolter rifle without unbalancing even the smaller users… much.

The head is finally slotted with two small techno-sorcery based retractable tools capable of nanite-forming virtually any flat head, star, hex, shank, hex-ring, eight-point, standard/metric bolt or nut, and virtually all other small parts imaginable.

Directly implanted into Mallia's central spine without a need for an additional neural interface due to her MIU, the mental connection to this mechadendrite allows her to use it as another limb without causing mental lag. Although the AdMech would normally frown at doing so, it can also be used to wield and fire pistols for her.

This specific one comes directly from a larger Forge on Mars, thus it features an incense censer for calming particularly unruly or damaged Machine Spirits, a retractable 6" monomolecular cutting blade, six sets of three-pronged 0-gravy alloy manipulator claws for performing fine repairs or holding an item in place, a small but powerful cutting torch, and six injector pistons filled with Ligature Oil.

-Armor Value: 20 Armor

-Armor Durability: 2DR

-Blessed Incense of the Machine Spirit: grants a [1d6+2] <Blessed Incense roll when performing Tech-Use on electronic devices, may only be used ONCE every 3rd turn

-Ligature Oil Injectors: grants a [1d6+2] <Sacrament of the Omnissiah roll that may be used for Engineering or Tech-Use during repairs; the Ligature Oil bottles MUST be replaced after all six have been used

*If the Injectors are replaced with Regenerative Crystalline Bio-Gel this instead becomes a [1d6+6] <Blessing of the Poneissiah roll, which may only be utilized on Crystalline Shells or other Bio-Crystalline Technology

-Improvisional Weapon Mount: can be used to fire an additional Small Arm with a single applicable roll

-Monomolecular Blade: grants a [1d6+2] <Monomolecular Blade roll that ignores 1/2 DR, may be used in combat or for Engineering purposes

-Micro-Plasma Cutter: grants a [1d6+2] <Plasma Torch roll that may be used to weld most materials together, cut through plating, or burn through an opponent's armor

-Rites of Repair: grants a [1d6+2] <Rites of Repair roll that functions as either Engineering or Tech-Use when repairing electronic devices, weapons, armor, or vehicles

-Utility Mechandrite: grants a [1d6+2] <Utility Mechandrite roll that can function as either Engineering or Tech-Use

While the design is quite similar to most high end human styled suitcases, this one in particular bears a number of Tallus-based modifications, the least of which seems to be a severe lack of weight.

This particular Mosin-Nagant is the longest and second heaviest of it's breed, measuring in at 49 inches and weighing 8.9 pounds when fully loaded.

Pareidolia:

 

*****

Vastly improved with a sequential layering of Hyfalgryph scales, it was augmarented with a sealed, infused planar silk to allow a limited auto-stealth functionality, and comes with a unique self-regenerating power cell that drains ambient energy discharges and energy from it's surroundings.

Further modified by Spiral's gryphon form with a semi-synchronized Tallus power crystal to ensure stable operation, featured on the back in a small containmarent unit combined with an advanced processing unit.

When struck while in stealth, the optical camouflage will flicker on and off randomly for that turn before returning to normal, and excessive exposure to water will cause the system to disable the active nanofilamarents, temporarily shutting off the auto-camouflage function for a short period of time.

While it is possible to use firearms during Stealth, the overall system cannot mask muzzle flash and has no effect on sound dampening.

-Armor Value: provides 4DR, full body

-Armor Class: Enhanced Light

-Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/3

-Electronic Enhancemarent #1: adds +2 to all in-combat Stealth rolls, and converts all rolls to Auto-Stealth in dark conditions, including red, purple, violet, black, and green spectrums; when in blue, yellow, orange, and white spectrum lighting this effect is disabled. Regenerates to 4/4 Charges per Operation

-Defensive Enchantmarent #1: reduces damage from all Elemarental, Casting, Psionic, and other esoteric means by 1/4

*ELDRITCH ARTISTRY: adds +1 to all Carving, Crafting, Dancing, Engineering, Intimidation (in writing), Negotiation (only when done in writing ), Sculpting, and Singing rolls. During these attempts, Pareidolia may NOT be interrupted. Should one make the effort to prevent this... they will not enjoy the repercussions

*ONCE per Operation, Pareidolia is capable of taking 100% control of his armor utilizing a directed electromagnetic bioneural-feed algorithm resulting from his exposure to an experimental Lightning-based alchemical substance in the Enclave. During this state, Pareidolia is capable of 'feeling', 'seeing', sensing', 'hearing', and 'tasting' his surroundings through the Void, albeit in an electrified state, and is incapable of experiencing physical pain.

*ONCE per Operation, Pareidolia is granted a [1d6+10] <Auto-Lightning Shield which is capable of destroying and damaging projectiles or weapons, and is able to redirect or nullify a single Lightning elemarental attack, whether physical, magical, Mystical, or Druidic in nature, but cannot defend against Otherworldly or Planar Lightning

*ONCE per Operation, Pareidolia is capable of drawing all electrical energies from power crystals within a 10M radius of him to enhance his Lightning Strike ability, allowing additional arcs to chain onto all targets within 5M of the original target

 

The original material was entirely replaced with a 3/8" thick black sapphirine produced on Tallus and shaped by Anon, its material properties approximating medium-strength alloy titanium.

Features an integrated air filtration system using a coupling allowing for the use of standard military grade multi-stage air filters.

*Neural Operating Algorithim Heuristic/Stand Alone Ghost 5.2 (NOAH/SAG 5.2): an upgraded version of prior NOAH variants and iterations, the SAG sub-type was designed to be fully functional in both independent and networked roles.

Capable of rapid, in-field calculations, predictive analysis, electronic warfare and countermeasures, full suite accessibility to all the modern electronic protocols of the 22nd century, and a nearly infinite learning potential thanks to the unrivaled success of the Amadeus and Salieri projects, they otherwise held all the same capabilities of previous NOAH versions at magnitudes greater thresholds.

Much of their initial applications were internal, networking with and accelerating the learning and development of older NOAH models via improved machine learning. Capable of integrating themselves into nearly any electronic system, they were also designed for modular attachment to certain vehicles, exoskeletons, or spacecraft and with sufficient prior training could utilize and operate them independently of human input or assisting human operators.

Trials were being undertaken to provide durable, reliable android bodies sufficiently able to facilitate their housing, however individual preferences among SAG templates resulted in some preferring to remain in their drive forms rather than transfer.

Intended for use in both combat and non-combat roles, their existence was largely kept to Committee installations and personnel as roll-out plans for the public sector were still ongoing in tandem with memory preservation/digitization analogues. Consideration was also provided for provisional attachment to the GAIA project.

All personality templates were drawn from Committee volunteers who had achieved incredible excellence in any particular field of study, art, feat, or performance and wished for ‘themselves’ to live on in a more permanent manner after their physical death. Within the civilian support staff and a non-minor amount of combat staff, popular idol singers and philosophers were highly requested SAG partners.

*Codename: Shiibo (Brash, Curious, Determined, Emotional, Experimenter, Focused, Hard-Working, Inquisitive, Intellectual, Intuitive, Kind, Logical, Precise, Savant, Tsundere)

-Armor Value: provides 3DR to the entire head

-Armor Class: Medium Helmet

-Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2

-Technological Slots Remaining: 1/2

-Black Sapphirine Enhancement: reduces all damage caused by Shadow or Void Elementals by 1/2, also grants 2 raw Enchantment slots

-Mechanical Enhancement #1: reduces the duration & effects of Blind and Concussions by 1/2

-Technological Enhancement #1: grants a [1d6+3] <Predictive Behavior Analysis ability when Pareidolia performs any Psychological Assessment tests against a target. This ability may not be used in tandem with the <Threat Matrix Analysis ability, only one or the other may be used each turn.

-Technological Enhancement #2: grants a [1d6+3] <Threat Matrix Analysis ability against a single target, the result of which informs Pareidolia of the target's potential threat vectors and capabilities. This ability may not be used in tandem with the <Predictive Behavior Analysis ability, only one or the other may be used each turn.

-Technological Enhancement #3: whichever A.I. model Pareidolia selects for operational functions, it is able to access and display all information that its' predecessors and alternative A.I. have recorded in the past, whether visual, auditory, data files. A modernized suite of illogical-logic calculation nodes based on an exceptional human's neural process round out the features for more flexible infield support. This function also allows Pareidolia to review all recorded information at any time, and cannot be heard without significant difficulty.

-Technological Enhancement #4: functions as a standard radio system out to 10 miles and may transmit up to a 25 miles, allowing Pareidolia to act as a long ranged receiver-transceiver; may also utilize encryption protocols and codes at will.

-Technological Enhancement #5: a suite of standard organo-heuristic learning algorithms allows the current A.I. to utilize moderately complex encryption, decryption, and security systems using 3x [1d6+3] <E.Electronic Warfare rolls.

-Technological Enhancement #6: an extensive suite of bio-analytic programs and recursive data stacks that actively and remotely scan Pareidolia's physical state, when allowed the proper authorization and access to do so. Displaying near-exact injuries down to the millimeter, equipment and weapon damage, positive or negative status conditions, including a small screen dedicated to a self-analysis of his approximate mental state. The system is also capable of determining potential harm delivered by physical and mostly-solid enemy combatants once scanned by other technological devices, although it hasn't been linked and collected enough data to do so. Yet.

The grip is some form of carved wood, species unknown, while the blade itself is a rushed forge job, but is still pure pinksteel nonetheless. How such pure pinksteel was acquired and then so poorly forged together into this weapon is an odd story:

From the numerous records recovered from Harlon's lab, there is a limited amount of information on the origins of this old biteblade. A year or so before the Temporal Incident at Harlon's lab, the Guards were investigating reports of a deranged pony inhabiting the deep woods near Canterlot.

The reports themselves were quite real, but the story had a strange twist: the pony in question claimed to be tormarented by hallucinations and voices in his head, and assumed that he was being harassed by spirits.

Somehow acquiring a lump of pure pinksteel, he forged this rush job of a blade in utmost desperation. His background, where he acquired the pinksteel, and how he had any skill in forging remain unknown.

When they attempted to subdue and aid him, he shocked the small Guard group by plunging the biteblade into the head of the Captain and dashed away into the woods. He was never seen again after this, though the Guard gave their all to track him down for the murder.

Convinced that there must have been more to the weapon, they brought it to Harlon for analysis. He concluded there was nothing to the blade besides being badly made, and threw the weapon in with all the other rejects and oddities.

-Melee Weapon Class: Light

-Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

-Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/1

-Inherent Ability: Pink Steel, allows the user to harm incorporeal or non-physical Otherworldly, Planar, Spectral, and Undead beings, also granting a [1d6+4] <Purge non-elemarental effect

-Blade and Board: can be used in tandem with Small Arms or other 1-handed weapons, but may not use with 2-Handed weapons

 

The weapon is not sentient, but due to its existence from a relatively untainted section of the Everfree once could suppose that it greatly dislikes Undead.

-Melee Weapon Class: Two-Handed

-Enchantmarent Slots: 0/3 remaining

-Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

*STATUS: laid to rest by Hodch

 

This black-tinged blade is covered in a panoramic scene of a large minotaur village, presumably Gozka, and would likely have been used for training young Adherents.

-Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed OR Two-Handed

-Base Modifier: adds +3 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

-Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+2] <Airstrike Elemarental attack

-Offensive Enchantmarent #2: grants a [1d6+2] <Lunar Shock non-elemarental attack that stuns on a max critical, forcing Otherworldly, Planar, Spectral, and Undead beings to suffer a -4 penalty to all rolls due to their fragile grasp of reality being interrupted

-Offensive Enchantmarent #3: THREE times per Operation, Pareidolia may utilize a <Dispersion effect, causing 50% of the total damage inflicted to jump to the closest enemy target as an arcane beam of non-elemarental energies; if an opponent Blocks the weapon this crystal is enchanted to, that damage will automatically strike them instead. Unless fully Evaded, this effect MUST always occur

-Modification #1: Two-Handed Block, gains an additional Block roll ONLY when using both hands to wield

 

Before the Dynasty was even a thought, Slumbering Wrath was originally discovered by an expeditionary team of Dusk Striders carving a path through the Underdark between the Moors and Manehattan.

This 'weapon', if it can truly be called that, was picked up and brought into the physical realm to be studied in the hopes of understanding, and possibly reproducing, the marely Otherworldly materials present in spectrums linked to Tallus, but despite marely years of research and experimarentation to determine it's composition it was later considered an interesting but otherwise useless animate curio.

Carried by Dusk Striders, passed from hoof to hoof and family to family, Slumbering Wrath was eventually given it's name for the strange, dissonant, and violent expulsions of nullifying flux energies it would produce when used to harm Planar beings.

Although the Dusk Striders are long gone, most of their wisdom has been passed down through the Lunar and non-allied city factions, and along with their journals and tomes, the knowledge to summon a wrathful wisp from the 'head' of this weapon has been carried throughout history along with it's own existence.

Regardless of their concerns as to how it appeared in the Enclave, both Amerose and Naliyna are positive that Slumbering Wrath was not recovered from the Solar Amory, while testing on Tallus natives ("Maybe... possibly... well, it's kinda likely but I'm not going to tell you why there were several unwilling humans help us figure this thing out." -Naliyna) has proven that it cannot harm anything but Planar beings.

-Melee Weapon Class: Two-Handed

-Enchantmarent Slots: unknown

-Base Modifier: adds +6 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls, though ONLY against Planar beings

-Offensive Enchantmarent #1: twice per Operation, the bearer may utilize a [1d6+10] <Summon Wrathful Wisp ability that brings forth a golf ball sized, glowing blue and utterly hostile sphere which tracks down Planar targets with an inherent speed of 12, bypassing DR entirely

*Only one Wisp may be summoned at a time

-GSL-H9 (Small Arm Traits: High Tech, Integral Burst Fire, Limited Ammunition, Precision Small Arm): perhaps the most plausible example of near-future high tech weaponry in use, at least by human standards, this pistol from someone else's literal future defies both the expectations of what a weapon 'is', and what it is not.

Given the weapon's specifications and blatantly basic double-action hammer feature, the design of this weapon could have been adapted from virtually any major manufacturer on most human worlds.

Remarkable for its barrel length, the bright red LED counter on the right side sits above a dark forest green magazine release button, illuminated by a white glow-in-the-dark synthetic plastiform ring bordering it for maximum visibility.

The box magazine itself is larger than it appears at first glance, revealing this weapon to utilize an unusual straight-cased small 5MM penetrator cartridge, slightly larger and considerably more advanced than the 4.3x45MM H&K prototype.

Similar to many marksman refits, the grip is tactically styled with a great deal of comfort in mind, while the slide lock safety directly above the trigger gives it an effectively militaristic appeal.

Yet again deviating from standards, this weapon is only able to fire in a 3-round burst mode yet the recoil is so minor that such a firing rate is unlikely to negatively impact the user's aim.

The small amount of wear on this weapon, besides the cryptic name and model number, shows that either it has not seen much action on Tallus or that it was created to withstand a great deal of use on extended operations.

As it does not seem to have been produced to use a suppressor, laser sighting systems, a flashlight, or any other accessories, one has to wonder what exactly the intended purpose of this weapon was.

*A note from Vandal states that this weapon was recovered alongside the NGTB-478 from a hostile, uncommunicative human female encountered during a Pathfinder led expedition into the northeastern edge of the New Everfree.

The human's bizarre, almost egg-shaped armor was mostly destroyed, as was everything else save for these two weapons and their ammunition, due to the usage of an unstable manabomb. The expedition suffered severe losses to both weapons and an unknown system.

-Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Small Arms rolls

-Ammunition Class: 5MM High Velocity GSL, Small Arms

-Armor Pierce: 2

-Magazine Capacity: 45/45 cartridges, 1x magazine each of Marking-Tracer & Armor Piercing

-Ammunition Type #1: 5MM High Velocity GSL Armor Piercing, grants Armor Pierce 2 (negates 2 DR) per roll

-Ammunition Type #2: 5MM High Velocity GSL Marking-Tracer, adds +1 to all Small Arms rolls after the FIRST roll due to leaving a distinct bright green vapor trail, which allows an Operator to rapidly adjust their aim-on-target

-Maximum Optimal Range: 50M with a -1 penalty per 25M beyond this range

-Maximum Effective Range: 200M

*ERA: unknown.

 

-Krieghoff-Fochwulfe & Mauser FG103 ExoTrooper Mk. VI (Combat/Battle Rifle Traits: Custom, Limited Ammunition, Post Orbital Technology): distinctly based on the FG-42 B model, this example takes what made the original a good paratrooper weapon, then pushes that idea to the limits with an overdose of extremely sophisticated technology, utilizing engineering principles that could only have been developed by one either insane enough, or bored nearly to death.

Much like its counterparts, this weapon's furniture has been modified to be much more comfortable for use and are formed from a crystal-plasticized steel capable of enduring cold down to -200 degrees and heat up to 1,500 degrees for extended periods of time.

All other components are comprised of absurdly high quality 0-gravity cast titanium-tungsten-crystalline hi-alloy composites coated by a macro-ceramic laminate to ensure a theoretical lifespan of two hundred years.

*Vandal's notes detail that during the summer of 29,998, a minotaur Elder Mystic had been surveying Rune Pass for a number of alchemical ingredients. He located a thoroughly destroyed Endless March Golem surrounded by small, strange cases made of steel.

The presumed owner was found deceased within a short radius, inside a highly complex set of lethally damaged armor; estimated weight of 1,200 pounds.

The human had a number of equally complex augmentations, presumably bionics or cybernetics; also was presumed to be either the result of eugenics or some other accelerated program. Numerous high quality weapons were stored in a hard plasticized steel case located nearby, although a massive anti-everything rifle that he estimated to be at least 200 years newer than this one had to be teleported from the exosuit's grip.

The body was buried after a short investigation due to the locale's dangers.

*A hoofnote from Astra states that the armor was currently undergoing careful investigation and limited on-hoof inspection in the Underground to ascertain its intended purpose(s); once completed the armor would be placed, in stasis of course, in the Otherworldly Historical Wing: Human Technologies afterwards in its own exhibit.

-Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Battle Rifle OR Combat Rifle rolls

-Modification #1: Recoil Absorbing Stock, negates all recoil penalties

*ERA: Early Orbital

 

-Magnum Salvo Firearms SPS-18 (Ranged Weapon Traits: Custom, Heavy, Standard Tech): in appearance a slightly larger clone of the SPAS-15, this oddly stamped weapon bears a number of interesting sidegrades.

Using a medium weight, quartz-infused wood from a common maple species instead of polymer adds a slight amount of weight while greatly increasing durability, stability, and comfort.

Exchanging the original sights for a halo ring rear and high visibility electron-magnified front post improves CQB accuracy, while an off-side mounted holosight can be used for longer ranged work.

Few of the internals bear more than slight design changes, but the receiver, barrel, and tube appear to be from a limited or special production run due to an exceptional 9600-series stainless alloy.

The long magazine tube itself is a curiously stock feature, giving it an 8+1 capacity, and the standard 4" shell increases recoil by a noticable amount. One unusual deviation is a somewhat complicated, albeit robust, addition of a 13-shell drum feeding magazine and second stage feeding system.

*Vandal's notes state this weapon was recovered in Southern Pongolia, southwest of Rushya, from a small camp site that appeared to have been used longer than a year. Besides some unusual MRE's and a number of basic supplies, nothing more was located after a thorough search.

Speculative notes include the possibility of gigantic avians once known to inhabit the region during an archaic era 4,000+ years prior; Astra's hoofnote states the likelihood of the previous scenario to be unknown.

-Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Shotgun rolls

-Ammunition Class: 10 gauge

-Armor Pierce: 2 for slugs, 4 for darts, 5 for finned darts

-Magazine Capacity: 8/8 finned darts in forward tube, 1x 13-shell drum magazine of finned darts, 2x 13-shell drums of slugs

-Ammunition Type #1: buckshot and flechettes have an optimal range of 60M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 10M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 120M

-Maximum Effective Range: 600M

-Attachmarent #1: Holosight: adds +1 to Combat Rifle rolls only when in use, cannot be used in conjunction with Laser Sight

-Attachmarent #2: Laser Sight: adds +1 to Combat Rifle rolls only when in use & has a maximum effective range of 200M, cannot be used in conjunction with a scope

-Modification #1: External Supressor: 60% Suppressed, requiring a Perception roll of 7 or higher in order to determine the direction fired from

 

While it's caliber is significantly smaller than the 9MM, it boasts greater velocity, better armor penetration than the 7.65x21MM cartridge, and greatly reduced recoil, it does suffer from a distinct lack of lethality, which is partially offset by it's 50 round box magazine.

-Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls

-Ammunition Class: 5.7×28MM, Small Arms

-Armor Pierce: 1

*Causes additional harm against Cursed, Elemarental, Undead, and those capable of draining the life of others, Spectrals in particular

*When infused to a weapon adds +2 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls

*When infused to armor provides +2DR against Cursed, Elemarental, Undead, or life draining beings

*Grants a [1d6+1] <Repel effect to armor and weaponry, the greater the result the more effective the repel, such as forcing the target back on a result of 2, and paralyzing the target on a 7.

*Reduces the detrimarental effects of curses by 1/2

 

 

 

Barely raptor-like in appearance, Crin are often considered less reasonable and far more stupid than most, often seen on Tallus acting as disposable vanguards to blunt magic or Elemarentals from hostile forces.

Due to their strange nature, the one glaring weakness all Crin share is a near-total weakness to piercing weapons including projectiles.

*PURIFIED by Dul

*Reduces damage from most forms of magic by 1/4, except for specifically Eldritch, Mystic, Spectral, and Undead

 

As Canterlot Underground's Pathfinder teams have reestablished contact with the Crystal Empire, a number of Crystal ponies have joined their ranks, usually bringing this model instead of the 5B TA due to having greater storage capacity and a sturdier display.

The top display acts like a human styled touch screen except uses a semi-liquid state tracing gel. When activated by touch from a living being, the 'unit' will recover from a power crystal saving state, and display thirteen functions.

*Apparently loaned by Astra Galus to Marquis du Spiral Disclosure, but was never returned.

*Up to 3 functions may be utilized each turn with a [1d6+4] roll for each:

-Cardinal Direction that also features a Magnetic Vapor Gel 360 degree compass

-Travel Speed in Hooves Per Second (equivalent to miles per hour)

-Local Geography in a 100 to 1,000M radius

-Regional Map up to 100 kilometers

-Height Distance of targets

-Depth Distance of targets

-Elemarental Detection Radius from 1-500M

-Resonance Detection Radius from 1-800M

-Flora Detection Radius from 1-1,000M

-Fauna Detection Radius from 1-1,000M

-Detection Strength from 1 to 10

-Objective Storage: contains data on all previously scanned targets

*Language Selection options are: Crystal Kingdom, Crystal Empire, Common Equestrian, Batpony, Pegasus, Earth Pony, Unicorn, Saddle Arabian, Minotaur, and Gryphon

 

Carved from a solid block of darkly stained horse chestnut wood, the dragon is protectively curled around a detailed approximation of Tallus and displayed as a representative of the Elements.

*Rarely produced in Neighpon by spirit-carvers, this one hailing from the Cavalier clan

*When used as a finishing touch on armor adds +1 to all Resist Damage rolls

*When used as a finishing touch on shields adds +1 to all Block and Deflect rolls

*Grants a [1d6+5] <Tate defensive ability that protects against harm from one of the following each turn: Weapons, Magic, Elemarentals, or Psionicism

*Permarenently enchanted to him

 

Either someone managed to keep this prototype intact right up until their unfortunate death, or they simply had really shitty luck surviving a nuclear detonation.

Features a 50TB crystalline lattice hard drive capable of near-total file compression, a flat motherboard with integrated processing unit/cooler/RAM card composed of near-liquid diamond, graphic & sound cards that are 99.9% top secret, a host of logic-assistance programs, and an MP3 library.

*Presumed stolen

*Allows a [1d6+1] <Tech Research or <Tech-Use roll, can be fully restored

 

These are a requiremarent for all Starborn to carry as a means to contact and directly speak with the Nightmare or other Lunars during missions.

*Currently owned by him

 

*Does nothing to prevent Spectral beings from becoming hostile, however.

 

The face is marked with the tome's name, a word that has not been matched to any language on Tallus, while the reverse is devoid of script and ornamarentation, nor is there a foreword.

Contained within Lacsidrae's tremarendously warded pages lie heavily specialized Anti-Elemarental, Eldritch, Elemarental, Otherworldly, Planar, and Spectral incantations, each isolated from the others by a clever enchantmarent which prevents the holder from turning the pages, instead forcing the holder to close the tome and open to their desired incantation.

Discovered by Dancing Eyes when sorting through a delivery of books from the Enclave, she originally thought it was a joke, seeing as how the Tower Guard's experience with such attempts at creating incantations of the like had never been successful, before sending it back.

Even with a thorough examination by the entire Lorekeeper Order in the Crystal Empire, the Starborn's archivists and historians, and sending it to Princesses Luna and Cadence, then finally Queen Chrysalis herself for study, Lorekeeper Amerose only had this to say when asked:

"When were these spells researched, composed, and created? Who compiled and wrote each of these? How were these wards and this enchantmarent devised? And, most worrying of all, what could inspire a form of depraved madness so deep that it allowed one to translate languages, if they can even be called so, that cannot even be spoken on Tallus to exist coherently in common script?"

Entirely unable to decide what should be done with it, Amerose sent it back to the Enclave, where Dancing Eyes has placed Lacsidrae on its own stand outside of the small Crystal Lab to read in the hopes that somepony, or someone, will eventually answer one of the Lorekeeper's questions.

She does note, with quite a bit of humor, that she still thinks the tome is a great joke.

Due to natural batpony curiosity and restlessness from constant noise in the Enclave, Shade Skipper was the first one to read and categorize everything in Lacsidrae. Amazingly, he didn't find it boring or go back to sleep, instead taking it to the sickle shaped dock, perusing the mini-tome for hours each night.

Traveling to a small Lunar testing outpost near the center of Luna's Villages, he returned each night with comprehensive notes. Stained with mango juice, of course. The notes, not the tome.

According to his.. research, each bound spell has a minimum range of 10M ("Danger close. Highly dangerous.") and a maximum range of 500M. Traveling nearly as fast as he can fly, each has a preset speed of 12, and targets a 20M radius.

He isn't sure how the 'target' is selected, though presumes Lacsidrae itself 'guides' arcane energies to a defined location based on the bearer's intentions. ("Got one to hit me by focusing on a stick about five paces in front of me. ..I would rather not talk about it. No, my ears were not burned off.")

Lacking proper research methods, and little interested in more self-injuries, Shade Skipper returned Lacsidrae to its stand.

("They're definitely Mystic class. I say the Dynasty put this together, must have taken centuries. No, not Early, Middle, Late, I mean the Dynasty descendants. You.. ..do know some still exist, yes? ...how DO you not know of them Amerose?" -Shade Skipper)

-One spell may be called upon each turn, in any order, until all 8 are exhausted. After this the Lacsidrae's cover will close and must recharge for a full Day or Night cycle.

Mist-foam is a tightly controlled material issued to relicted (the surviving spouse of a battle-pair) minotaurs, especially those with high status or a deeply trusted shaman.

This particular one was scavenged from the remains of an unnamed Minotaur warrior on Khahlani Island by Mercy, whom dedicated several nights shaping it into a usable form.

Having no use for it herself and being unwilling to let Foggy Patches abuse it's capabilities, she decided to grant the circlet to Pareidolia as thanks for his aid in Skykeep.

-Defensive Enchantmarent #1: Dispersion Cascade, in combat the wearer's movements become half-transparent and poorly defined to opponents, adding +2 to all Evasion rolls.

-Utility Enchantmarent #1: Unknown Slowfall-Float. While falling from any height, the wearer will be slowed to an easily survivable speed; this effect may be negated by mental commarend at any time, however, the wearer will automatically be cushioned from a lethal fall.

 

*Stuns for 1 turn on a max critical

*Currently enchanted to the Panorama Blade

 

-Negation Amulet: adds +1 to all Fearless/Iron Will rolls

 

Their performance as standalone units pales in comparison to when they have a dedicated network to connect to for constant updates as to whatever state of improvements the network has access to, including predictive processing.

All A.I. models also retain the capability for new information to be uploaded maually in the event of new operating parameters. Due to popular demand, particular A.I. personalities can also be selected for use, as well as complete uploaded personalities with animated image sprites at the user's discretion.

At the current time, over a thousand A.I models are available for Pareidolia's selection... although all of them are derivatives of Tallus ponies known to Razorback, created by Anonymous.

This N.O.A.H. unit has been, somehow, merged to a highly advanced communications network unit based off Crystal Hololith bio-crystal-technologies, and is able to function as both a personal radio and a long-ranged receiver/transceiver, allowing Pareidolia to function as an encrypted mobile communications platform.

*Some adapted technologies shouldn't be asked about, and this is definitely one of those.

-Integrated Interface Enhancement: the Neural Operating Algorithm Heuristic (NOAH), is a state of the art, standard issue cognitive computing A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) issued to all Committee staff of sufficient rank based on initial prototypes derived from IBM's 'Watson' and functional super computing A.I. from Japan.

These cognitive A.I. systems are capable of scanning, cataloging, and predicting environmental factors, threats, and other potential adverse conditions, as well as displaying readouts for operator health while running on minimum power and space requirements. Designed as the ideal threat assessment tool for Committee staff regardless of their field, they were an essential contributor to maintaining global control.

*Previously set to Marquis du Spiral Disclosure, pre-Elemarental Combustion setup. Moderately Neurotic Stage, High Flexibility

*Currently set to Doctor Tipper, pre-breakdown

-Technological Enhancement #1: featuring slight program modifications provided by Anon through his basic understanding of Crystal Hololiths, the A.I system is able to display Pareidolia's exact injuries, damage, and positive or negative status conditions down to the millimeter, including a small screen display dedicated to S.HP (Spiritual HP). The system is also capable of determining potential harm delivered by enemy combatants once scanned by other technological devices, though this particular early generation NOAH system itself does not have that capability

-Technological Enhancement #2: a suite of (mostly restored) organo-heuristic learning algorithms allows the current A.I. to utilize simple encryption, decryption, and security systems using 2x [1d6+2] <B.Electronic Warfare/Warmare rolls

-Technological Enhancement #3: whichever equine A.I. model Pareidolia selects for operational functions, it is able to access and display all information that its' predecessors and alternative A.I. have recorded in the past, whether visual, auditory, data files, and even prototype illogical-logic calculations based on pony neural processes. This function also allows Pareidolia to review all recorded information at any time, and cannot be heard without significant difficulty.

 

*Grants a [1d6+6] <Psychokinesis ability, allowing the user strike an opponent with sheer kinetic force, shove a target off balance, hurl a small weapon, or perform other simple tasks, twice per Operation

*This cannot be used to heal, form acidic bolts like Changeling psychokinesis, nor does it allow any mental or marental effects

 

*Adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls when infused to a weapon

*THREE times per Operation the user may call upon a <Dispersion effect, causing 50% of the total damage inflicted to jump to the closest enemy target as an arcane beam of non-elemarental energies

*If an opponent Blocks the weapon this crystal is enchanted to, that damage will automatically strike through the shield instead

*Unless fully Evaded, this effect MUST always occur

*Currently enchanted to the Panorama Blade

 

During the first Fortress overhaul and renovation, Spiral asked Naliyna's aid in dissipating 'heat' due to overextending his abilities creating the soul-glyph, placed under the Fountain.

Settling on a Rime Lattice, long used to coat Warden or Knight armor to protect against Construct weaponry and corruption, she worked on it during her off time, with limited tools and bare knowledge.

Able to produce this one in a little over a month, she tried to deliver it to the Marquis, albeit 3-4 days too late.

*Contains enough Rime wind to flash-freeze a 40Mx40Mx20M patch of lava

*50/50 Rime remaining

*Acts as 5 Standard Coldstones/2 Superior Coldstones/1 Magnified Coldstone

*Passively removes [1d6+4] Rift Corruption in a 5M radius

*If thrown at a target, [1d6+4] <Rime will be released in a 10M radius

 

*Shaped and improved by a Cavalier clan gem-smith.

*Adds +1 to all Iron Will rolls

*Negates the non-physical effects of Confusion, Critical, Depression, Fear, Hunger, Horror, Shock, and Terror

 

*Allows the bearer to harm Spectral beings as if they were living beings, with ALL weapons including ranged

 

*Shaped and improved by a Cavalier clan gem-smith

*Adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls on piercing weapons
