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] 155MM Bombshell: a large military grade artillery warhead removed from the casing. Artillery shells such as these are rigged to a remote detonator, usually an old or cheap cellular phone, then the casing is scored in such a manner that, upon detonation, a cloud of razor-edged shrapnel is further propelled by a disorienting, deafening shockwave. Easily potent enough to stun passengers in all but the heaviest APC's and tanks. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +18 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 >40MM Airburst Grenade/VOG-25 Airburst: a specialty flak shell intended for area denial against small squads, though is much more adept in the typical anti-air role, especially helicopters and low flying prop/jet aircraft. Designed with a double layered self-fragmenting casing that also incorporates a number of fine shrapnel pieces. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +6 damage per roll -RADIUS: 15M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: Armor Pierce 1 (negates 1DR), inflicts Bleeding on a max critical >AGM-114 Hellfire Missile: a 7th Generation fire-and-forget finned 'smart' missile with a length of 64" and a total weight of 49 kilograms. 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 +13 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 >C-4: a powerful, easily molded, difficult to set off plastic compound with a high degree of flexibility allowing charges to be hidden and deployed in any number of mareners. The composition of C-4 is so stable that neither fire nor chemicals set it off, instead specifically requiring electrical ignition. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +8 damage per roll -RADIUS: 3M base, adds 1M per brick utilized -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts Stun for 2 turns, but inflicts Shock on a max critical >Claymore: a uniquely shaped plastic-hulled explosive, designed as an anti-personnel device containing 700 steel BB's. When detonated, a small, directed C4 charge expels the pellets in a tightly controlled cone pattern, though due to the use of steel pellets this device lacks range and penetration beyond a short distance. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +5 damage per roll -RADIUS: 70 degrees in a 15M cone -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: doubles the target's DR, always inflicts Bleeding on unarmored targets, but causes Severe Bleeding on a max critical to unarmored targets >Flash Bang: a timed or impact based grenade which produces a blinding white flash and disorienting, high pitched explosive sound wave. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +1 damage per roll & inflicts a -3 penalty to all Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival rolls for 5 turns -STUN: causes a 1 turn Stun on a max critical -RADIUS: 10M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: on a critical, WILL set fire to flammable objects in radius >Firebomb: simply put, this is a double-sized Molotov, either a 1.5L or half-gallon fragile glass whether in a bottle or canister. Often made to take out APC’s and heavy tanks alike, en masse Firebombs are also well suited to damaging and killing tightly packed formations. Often produced in a more professional manner using a short rope, typically attached or glued to the neck of a bottle, container, or canister, this modification increases the throwable range by an appreciable amount. -DAMAGE: cause an additional +4 damage and +4 Fire damage per roll, sets the target on Fire, then causes 6 Fire damage for the following 3 turns -RADIUS: 30M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has a 100% chance of causing Burns against unarmored targets on a critical >Fuel Canister Bomb, Small: a 3.78-4 Liter or 1 gallon fuel canister with an explosive device, incendiary charge, or possibly both, taped to one side. Upon detonation a spray of burning fuel is sent out in a wide area. Considered the most cost effective means of dealing with enemy light tanks, APC's, and large hostile squads. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +6 Fire damage per roll, then incurs 6 Fire damage for the following 5 turns -RADIUS: 50M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has a 100% chance of causing Burns to unarmored targets on a critical >Fuel Canister Bomb, Medium: a 7.56L or 2 gallon fuel canister with an explosive device, incendiary charge, or possible both, taped to one side. Upon detonation a spray of burning fuel is sent out in a wide area. Considered the most cost effective means of dealing with enemy medium tanks, medium armored APC's, and large hostile squads. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +9 Fire damage per roll, then incurs 9 Fire damage for the following 4 turns -RADIUS: 10M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has a 100% chance of causing Burns to unarmored/light/medium armored targets on a max critical >Fuel Canister Bomb, Large: an 11.34L or 3 gallon fuel canister with an explosive device, incendiary charge, or possible both, taped to one side. Upon detonation a spray of burning fuel is sent out in a wide area. Considered the most cost effective means of dealing with heavy enemy tanks and armored APC's, or half-platoons of infantry. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +12 Fire damage per roll, then incurs 12 Fire damage for the following 4 turns -RADIUS: 15M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has a 100% chance of causing Burns to unarmored/light/medium armored targets on a max critical >Fuel Canister Bomb, XL: an 15.12L or 4 gallon fuel canister with an explosive device, incendiary charge, or possible both, taped to one side. Upon detonation a spray of burning fuel is sent out in a wide area. Considered the most cost effective means of dealing with heavy enemy tanks and armored APC's, or platoons of infantry. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +15 Fire damage per roll, then incurs 15 Fire damage for the following 3 turns -RADIUS: 20M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has a 100% chance of causing Burns to unarmored/light/medium armored targets on a max critical >Fuel Canister Bomb, XXL: an 18.9L or 5 gallon fuel canister with an explosive device, incendiary charge, or possible both, taped to one side. Upon detonation a spray of burning fuel is sent out in a wide area. Considered the most cost effective means of dealing with heavy enemy tanks and armored APC's, or platoons of infantry. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +20 Fire damage per roll, then incurs 20 Fire damage for the following 2 turns -RADIUS: 25M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has a 100% chance of causing Burns to unarmored/light/medium armored targets on a max critical >GBU-12 Paveway IV: a guided version of the Mark 82 500-pound general purpose bomb, equipped with a nose-mounted laser seeking/guidance and stabilizing fins. Highly accurate out to 20KM given sufficient altitude. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +25 damage per roll -RADIUS: 80M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: inflicts Shock and causes TRIPLE damage against hardened targets >GBU-37 JDAM: an advanced version of the earlier GBU's that feature more extensive (and costlier) targeting packages. Bolted on to a Mark 82 500-pound bomb is a central hull body that contains both a GPS and inertial guidance system, and a 4-fin stabilizing tail. Highly accurate out to 60KM with sufficient altitude. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +30 damage per roll -RADIUS: 80M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: inflicts Shock and causes QUADRUPLE damage against buildings such as fortifications, bunkers, and XXL or larger targets >High Explosive (Grenade/Canister): a modern grenade or large canister with a large yield of either C4 or other similarly specialized explosive compounds. Typically used to destroy walls, knock out fighting vehicles or APC's, and can even deal considerable damage to light and medium tanks. Comes in placed, thrown, and 40MM/60MMvariants. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +8/11 damage per roll depending on size -RADIUS: 10M/15M/20M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts Stun for 2 turns, but inflicts Shock on a max critical >Large Bag Bomb: a professionally designed chain of explosive materials, typically with grenades, incendiary devices, and pipe bombs, rigged to detonate in sync with a large number of effective shrapnel components, typically knife blades, spikes, caltrops, steel ball bearings, and more. 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 -RADIUS: 25M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts Bleeding and a 1 turn Stun, but inflicts Severe Bleeding and Shock for 2 turns on a max critical >Large Manabomb: a much larger, far more potent form of manabomb only produced in Saddle Arabia, typically stored in a Vortex-rune sealed cloth bag or pouch. 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 >Large Manabomb, Iron/Steel Cased: a much larger, far more potent form of manabomb only produced in Saddle Arabia, fully sealed from exposure. Essentially a molded 10 pound block of multi-hued, highly stable crystalline lattice infused with unstable arcane energies. When the casing top is exposed to Tallus, these energies become much more erratic and volatile than their smaller variant. Contained in a cast or molded iron/steel casing, 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 -ALWAYS inflicts Severe Bleeding >Large Manabomb, Diamond Cased: a much larger, far more potent form of manabomb only produced in Saddle Arabia, fully sealed from exposure. Essentially a molded 10 pound block of multi-hued, highly stable crystalline lattice infused with unstable arcane energies. When the casing top is exposed to Tallus, these energies become much more erratic and volatile than their smaller variant. Contained in a precision cast or molded diamond casing, 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 -ALWAYS inflicts Critical Bleeding >M18 Smoke Grenade (or equivalent): a cylindrical grenade that deploys a large cloud of colored smoke in a 5-40M area. Lasts from 1-10 turns, depending on environmarental conditions. -DAMAGE: none unless choking on smoke -EFFECTS: causes a -4 penalty to all Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival rolls, including the use of NVG or Starlight vision modes, but not Thermal/other technological means or esoteric effects -RADIUS: 10M cloud in moderate wind for 1 turn, 20M cloud in light wind for 2 turns, 30M cloud in bare wind for 3 turns, 50M cloud when used inside a confined area. -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: none. >M252 81MM Mortar High Explosive Shell: an efficiently designed anti-personnel and anti-vehicle mortar round intended to provide cheap, accurate support fire. In most systems this has an indirect firing range of 3,000M, and an indirect shelling range of up to 5,500 meters. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +15 damage per roll -RADIUS: 20M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: inflicts a 3 turn Stun against unarmored targets, but inflicts Severe Bleeding and Shock on a max critical >M260 Pod 2.5" Hydra 70 Rocket High Explosive: a single-stage engine fire-and-forget rocket, each is 42" long and weighs between 4 to 7.7 kilograms. 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. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +18 damage per roll -RADIUS: 15M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: ALWAYS inflicts Bleeding & Stun for 3 turns, OR inflicts Severe Bleeding and Shock on a max critical for 5 Turns >M67 Pineapple Grenade: a common grenade with an unpopular reputation due to its easily spotted profile, which has led to thousands of instances of being tossed back to the thrower over the years it has been in use. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +5 damage per roll -RADIUS: 5M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: inflicts Stun on a max critical >Managel: a highly experimarental, multi-gray toned explosive gel originally devised in the Old Canterlot explosives research station by the unusual herd of Harlon, Rhoda, and Suisan. After the damage sustained by a vicious attack of Solar-aligned deserters, they relocated to a specially funded laboratory located in the New Everfree. Intended to be an equal replacemarent for the (still) outrageously expensive (and routinely unstable) manabombs, managel was initially developed from research after coming into contact with the, then, poorly understood Lava Leech species. Subsequent research and stress testing revealed a number of slight Elemarental faults, but at the time was accepted by Princess Celestia for further modifications. 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 usage much more appealing. However, the disaster that occurred did prevent it from seeing use for nearly 1,500 years. The Elemarental 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. (“And it was. I…. ….honestly can’t even try to explain. The resources and standards they utilized are far beyond my own standards of explosives mareufacture. If you gave me ten years to produce one of them using purely unicorn methodology, I wouldn’t be able to replicate it.” -Hodch) 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 ALL managel compounds to detonate almost immediately. -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 Anti-Elemarental OR Mystic damage per roll -RADIUS: 3M to 15M -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 >Messenger Bag Bomb: any form of small sling bag loaded with multiple forms of low grade gunpowder and/or explosives, and given ‘teeth’ by the inclusion of various highly cheap in bulk components used as shrapnel. Due to the sheer amount of mixed charges, usually large amounts of fertilizer compounds, high grade fuels, black powder, and other ersatz mixtures, bombs such as these create a high pressure shockwave that greatly increases the effective shrapnel radius. Often used by saboteurs, revolutionaries, and guerrillas due to being economical and causing a great deal of terror. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +5 damage per roll -RADIUS: 20M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: ALWAYS causes Severe Bleeding on unarmored or lightly armored targets, does not inflict Bleeding on Armored targets, and inflicts Stun for 3 turns on a max critical >Molotov: a favorite of tank hunters, arsonists, guerrilla fighters, and poor revolutionaries to disrupt tightly packed formations, vehicles, and armored units that have insufficient heat protection. Can be easily and cheaply made by combining any combination of flammable liquids in a small, fragile glass bottle (or jar), sticking a length of cloth in the neck, lighting said cloth, and throwing at a target. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +3 damage and +3 Fire damage per roll, sets the target on Fire, then causes 3 Fire damage for the following 3/6/9/12 turns (depends upon Basic/Expert/Master/Grandmaster Engineering skill) -RADIUS: variable 2 to 15M spread depending on base chemicals -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: has an increasing chance of causing Burns to unarmored/lightly armored/medium armored targets on max criticals >Spray Can+Lighter: an extremely close range petrol-based flammable concoction in a canister propelled by compressed gasses. A lighter taped to the front provides an ignition source. Fairly useless unless one is facing a cloud of wasps, hornets, mosquitoes, or spiders. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +2 damage and +2 Fire per roll -RADIUS: 1M to 2M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: observers WILL mock you… unless they are also under attack. >Shrapnel Grenade: a specialty grenade design, either an actual Mk. II Pineapple grenade or a more modern derivative. Incorporates a self-fragmenting casing which breaks apart upon detonation, delivering a hail of hardened metal shards in all directions. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +3 damage per roll -RADIUS: 8M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: Armor Pierce 2 (negates 2DR), always inflicts Bleeding to unarmored targets, but causes Severe Bleeding on a max critical to unarmored/lightly armored targets >Taffilon: a fibrous, bright pink substance, similar in appearance to a cross between taffy and cotton candy. Taffilon was originally developed by Councilierge Associates by combining a debased, fine grained Lava Leech substrate (or similar) with several other common, or rare, alchemical components to diminish and contain the primary explosive reaction. ("They were usin' it inside cast iron cases instead of manabombs, mostly for cost." -Twisted Wing) Finally redeveloped for precision 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 one subsequent ‘test’ by Jeff revealed the need for a greater amount of bufferant via destroying a common, albeit rather weak, semiautomatic pistol. Spiral finally achieved a near-perfect 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 high-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 +3/6/9/12 damage per roll -RADIUS: 1M/2M/3M/4M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: causes a 1 turn Stun on a max critical >Tear Gas: a cylindrical canister that deploys a severe chemical irritant affecting everything living via stinging to the eyes and a burning/biting sensation on skin. Tear gas can last without degrading for up to two weeks, making it difficult to wash out and must be carefully removed when settled. -DAMAGE: causes 1 damage per turn to biological targets while in the cloud, triples Fatigue while inhaled, and inflicts a -5 penalty to all Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival rolls. -RADIUS: 10M cloud in moderate wind for 1 turn, 15M cloud in light wind for 2 turns, 20M cloud in bare wind for 2 turns, and 30M cloud in no wind for 3 turns. -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: can Stun on a critical, depending on conditions >Toxic Gas: a glass container or other fragile canister that contains an aerosol poison or toxic gas specifically designed to incapacitate, and eventually kill, living beings. *NOTE: ALL forms of aerosol Poisons and Toxins are considered illegal in Equestria and across most of Tallus! -DAMAGE: initially causes +2 damage per roll, increasing to +4 on the second turn, +6 on the third turn, +8 on the fourth turn, +10 on the fifth turn, +15 on the sixth turn, +20 on seventh turn, +25 on the eighth turn, and so on -RADIUS: 5M cloud in moderate wind for 1 turn, 10M cloud in light wind for 2 turns, 15M cloud in bare wind for 2 turns, 20M cloud in no wind for 3 turns, 25M cloud when used inside a confined area. -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: prison time. A lot of it. Don't drop the soap. Or do >RPG-7 Single Stage PG-7V Warhead: a simple, single stage squash-type fuzed warhead that packs the rough equivalent of two frag grenades with a larger radius and triple the shrapnel potential. Contrary to popular belief, the Russian acronym "RPG" actually stands for "rocket-assisted grenade", NOT "rocket-propelled grenade". Shut the fuck up, dumbass. -DAMAGE: causes an additional +10 damage per roll -RADIUS: 10M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: ALWAYS inflicts Bleeding and causes Stun for 2 turns, unless a target has Heavy/Custom armor >RPG-7 2-Stage Warhead: a much heavier and more powerful version of the PG-7V warhead. Designed to fuze upon contact with solid walls such as concrete or reinforced steel, or the heavy armor of tanks, naval vessels, wyverns, and the like. 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 variable penetration against armor (1” inch of advanced composite ceramics to 10M against concrete) -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: will only fuze on Armored or Heavily Armored targets, ignores all DR, and inflicts Scorched >Small Manabomb: produced only in Saddle Arabia, small manabombs are multi-hued, highly stable crystalline lattices infused with arcane energies, also sealed from contact with air. When 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. (“Technically true. …...I will neither confirm nor deny what your stare is asking me.” -Hodch) *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 >Small Manabomb, Iron/Steel Cased: produced only in Saddle Arabia, small manabombs are multi-hued, highly stable crystalline lattices infused with arcane energies, fully sealed from contact with air. When the case's lid is removed and the manabomb inside is 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 +12 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 -ALWAYS inflicts Bleeding >Small Manabomb, Diamond Cased: produced only in Saddle Arabia, small manabombs are multi-hued, highly stable crystalline lattices infused with arcane energies, fully sealed from contact with air. When the case's lid is removed and the manabomb inside is 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 +15 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 -ALWAYS inflicts Severe Bleeding >White Phosphorous: disaffectionately called Willy Pete by certain criminal instigators among the MIC, this is a clearly labeled, bright white painted canister. Upon being thrown and detonated, the canister produces a small spread of 4,000+ degree white phosphorous, causing excruciating chemical burns in a small radius while emitting eye searing white-hot light. *Using this is a CRITICAL war crime against sapients. You have been warned. -DAMAGE: causes +6 Chemical/Fire damage per roll, then incurs 6 Chemical/Fire damage for the following 3 turns, also inflicting a -6 penalty to all Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival rolls to those afflicted. -RADIUS: 5M -ADDITIONAL EFFECTS: always inflicts Burns on a light/medium armored target, but inflicts Scorched on an unarmored target. ***** 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 Early Dynasty 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.

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. 20x medium sheet-paper titanium tubes of an advanced Alchemical glue compound are likewise included, 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'.

Available from the clinic by Tipper and is exclusive to ponies unless circumstances dictate otherwise. -May become Permarenent -Points required: 200 *All Alchemy ranks: the consumer gains +1DR and must add +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte & Block/Evasion/Reaction Speed/Sprint/Flight rolls for 3 turns. *Negative Effects: the consumer suffers -5HP after the effect fades, each further use incurring an additional, stacking -5HP loss. *Addiction Chance: high. -Antidote: a tiny vial of a thin, bright green fluid that can be consumed or thrown onto an ally, where it will rapidly seep through skin and hide. -May carry a maximum of 5 -May become Permarenent -Points required: 100 *All Alchemy ranks: when consumed or directly applied, this substance will rapidly counteract and negate all naturally occurring Poisons and Toxins. *NOTE: an Expert Alchemist or better is required to counteract Eldritch, Elemarental, Mystical, Othwerworldly, Planar, Spectral, and Undead styles or forms of Poisons and Toxins; roll Alchemy, the total results reduce the damage caused by the previously marentioned types. -Black Fog: a black, murky mass that creates a thick, extremely difficult to clear black fog with a 50M radius that lasts for 3 turns. Infrared, Thermal, and other distortion-negating optics are not affected by this affect. -May become Permarenent -Points required: 100 *Basic Alchemy: incurs a -1 penalty to all Perception-type and Ranged rolls. *Expert Alchemy: incurs a -2 penalty to all Perception-type and Ranged rolls. *Master Alchemy: incurs a -3 penalty to all Perception-type and Ranged rolls. *Grandmaster Alchemy: incurs a -4 penalty to all Perception-type and Ranged rolls. -Cryptus: a thick, syrupy black liquid that tastes like overripe blackberries, grudgingly given to the demi-sentient by Naliyna. Since both the recipe and ingredients used are both highly guarded secrets, the demi-sentient will refuse any and all requests for information on it. Normally used by Crystal ponies to ignore the extreme cold in the Outer Empire regions, and used defensively against marely of the ice-based creatures that inhabit that region, this concoction can also be used by living beings to enter a form of suspended animation if they are severely injured, or to survive hostile environmarents until being recovered, by consuming two in quick succession. May become Permarenent -Points required: 250 *Roll Alchemy; the total results reduce all physical, Elemarental, and Mystical Ice damage caused by 1/2 the total results. >Dampener: a small, apple sized glass bottle, in the shape of an apple of course. This translucent, light green, and most importantly, flavorful glowing concoction is made up of numerous components: a powerful painkiller, a marental stimulant, a light muscle relaxer, vitamins, trace minerals, and several alchemical substances which promote rapid, temporary healing, substantial enough to externally close most severe wounds. Operators MAY use this particular item, however, humans have a vastly higher addiction chance than ponies do. Available only from the clinic by Tipper, exclusive to ponies unless circumstances dictate otherwise. -May become Permarenent -Points required: 250 *All Alchemy ranks: the consumer gains +1DR, negates the effects of Critical and/or Shock status, regenerates +3HP per turn for 6 turns, and stops Bleeding/Severe Bleeding *Addiction Chance: high. >Detox: a packet of bright white powder substrates and reagents, refined from three rare plants harvested only from the Deep Everfree (both New and Old). Rapidly purges chemical substances from a living being's body, both internally and externally. -May become Permarenent -Points required: 400 *Roll Alchemy/Chemistry, if the total results are above 10 this will negate artificial Enrage & Poison status effects; if total results above 16 this will negate Gloss and Toxins; if total results above 22 this will negate Marker and Protoform; if total results above 28 this will negate ALL artificial status effects, both positive and negative. -Dragon's Bile: a recipe long held by the Dragonspine Mountains Mining Company; bought by Naliyna and retrieved by Sunny. A small, fragile glass canister containing a liquid composed of Lava Leech gel (or similar), several concentrated gastric byproducts from drakes or dragons, one bile gland from any of the Dragonspines' flammable pests, magnesite powder (a naturally occurring composite of iron and magnesium oxides), a tiny amount of promethine, several activation components, and a hardening agent. When exposed to oxygen, Dragon's Bile becomes a difficult to remove gel, clinging to the target and igniting upon impact which causes an intense boiling heat that most have likened to being the target of a Volfiurge Drake's high pressure steam exhalation. -Points required: 400 *Adds +1 to all Alchemy rolls, the total results-2 per roll indicate the amount of physical Fire elemarental damage caused to the target *Furthermore incurs 10 Elemarental Fire damage EACH turn with a [1d2] NOTE: Soap Cubes are considered an alternative Alchemy item, and as such only 1 may be carried at Untrained or Basic Alchemy, 2 at Expert, and 3 at Master.

Due to its hefty specifications and attuning, Aiutante is capable of performing the same precision heating, forging, and melding techniques taught to her by Hodch, though it hasn't been fully customized yet. *Grants a [1d6+10] roll when forging, reforging, or melding -Blacksmith's Hammer, Basic: a plain ironwood handled steel hammer weighing 4 pounds, cast in hi-alloy carbon steel with a flattening surface on the forward face and a triangular head on the reverse. Can be used for shaping small weapons, performing maintenance on armor, when engraving or removing material with a chisel, and for making other small adjustmarents. *Adds +2 to all Blacksmithing rolls when in use -Forging Tongs, Journeymare: approximately 60 tongs of various shapes and facings are scattered throughout the Workshop, used to hold projects while heating or undergoing shaping, lengthening, twisting, heat treating, quenching, and so on. *Adds +1 to all Blacksmithing rolls when in use -Heavy Blacksmith's Hammer, Basic: a much larger version of a blacksmith's hammer cast in hi-alloy steel, intended for shaping greatswords, heavy armor, tower shields, or other large projects. For obvious reasons, its rather tiring to use. *Adds +3 to all Blacksmithing rolls when in use -Krinza's Advanced Furnace: a heatstone layered and fired clay brick furnace developed from 6 years of research into the finer points of esoteric smithing. While it has been carefully attuned to his thoughts, Krinza often allows use of it, but only when asked. *Grants a [1d6+15] roll when forging, reforging, melding -Smithing Chisels, Basic: approximately 50 hard cast steel chisels spread around the Workshop for use in removing material, forming edges, shaping an object, and etcetera, but cannot be used for melding. *Adds +1 to all Blacksmithing rolls when in use. -Smithing Files, Basic: 10 rather simple files with varying edges and patterns spread around the workshop for anyone's use. *Adds +1 to all Blacksmithing rolls when used, but cannot be used for melding -Steel Anvil, Basic: ten common, standard double ended anvils for working metals on. *Grants a [1d6+4] roll for Blacksmithing when used ***** >STANDARD ENGINEERING TOOLS & WORKSHOP FUNCTIONS: -ADVANCED Tool Box: grants an extra roll to and adds +2 to all Engineering rolls at Untrained, +4 at Basic, +6 at Expert, and +8 at Master, but cannot be used for Blacksmithing. *The Advanced Tool Box can be used two turns in a row, but the Operator MUST skip their 3rd turn after use -LIMITED EDITION ITEM: 3 remaining in Workshop -BASIC Tool Box: grants an extra roll to and adds +2 to all Engineering rolls at Untrained, +3 at Basic, +5 at Expert, and +6 at Master, but cannot be used for Blacksmithing. *After using, the Operator MUST skip their next turn -Duct Tape: grants a [1d6+1] roll for Engineering or Explosive applications, but cannot be used when blacksmithing, forging, reforging, melding, or welding. -Multitool: adds +1 to all Engineering or Explosive rolls at Untrained, +2 at Basic, +3 at Expert, and +4 at Master. *Cannot be used when blacksmithing, forging, melding, or welding, or in conjunction with a Tool Box of any form -Shovel: grants a [1d6+2] roll for fortification-based Engineering, whether temporary or permarennent, but cannot be used as a tool for upgrading. -Swiss Army Knife: grants an [1d6+1] roll for Engineering or Wilderness Survival applications, but cannot be used when blacksmithing, forging, melding, or welding. -Superglue: grants a [1d6+1] roll for Engineering or Explosive applications, but cannot be used when blacksmithing, forging, melding, or welding. -Wire Cutter: grants a [1d6+1] roll for Engineering or Explosive applications, but cannot be used when blacksmithing, forging, melding, or welding. -FINE TOOLS: grants an additional [1d6+10] roll for Engineering applications, but cannot be used when blacksmithing, forging, melding, or welding.

Can be molded, shaped, and used like plexiglass. *Requires a skilled Crystal pony to create weapons or armor from -Greensteel: 2x 3 pound ingots in stock. -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 properly refined the pattern becomes 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 magneighsium, iron, lithium, silicon, and minor, binding traces of Elemarental flame. HIGHLY dangerous to use in enclosed locations, though is favored by dragonsmiths over compressed charcoal or magma drake aid. 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. -Redsteel: 2x 3 pound ingots in stock. -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. -Whitesteel: 2x 5 pound ingots 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 Elemarental-metal only found on the Moon that is, equally rarely, used as a catalyst in Grandmaster Alchemy or sorcerous rituals. Can be used to create highly specialized, yet dismally hard to produce reflective and deflecting armors. Essentially a form of magical aluminum, except without all the drawbacks, toxicity, and mutagenic problems. *Cannot be legally owned or used by a non-Lunar faction member -Promithene: 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 and charcoal due to cheapness, ease of access, and widespread abundance. Also makes a great campfire. When consumed by certain drakes and wyrms it allows them to temporarily breathe flame. *Can be purified and used as an alloy in heat resistant composite metals, unlike promethite. -Promkrynake: NOT in stock. One of the more unusual finds in the Dragonspine Mountains numerous volcano chains, this unstable metacomposite is only used by dragon-smiths whom love to live dangerously while happily working in their forges. It is, effectively, a semiliquid lava rock that absorbed a promethite and promythene composite, was blasted with steroids, dosed with enough hallucinogens to kill a Wasteland Moose, slammed with hyperamphetamine, and then was able to slowly cool, WITHOUT exploding, into a partially metastable matrix. Is also sometimes used by the truly desperate, the astoundingly stupid, the clinically insane, but mostly those with a fiery-explosive kink. -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.

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. ***** >ARMOR CRAFTING GUIDE: may only be performed by those with Blacksmithing or Engineering, also including Casting, Crafting (if applicable), Crystal Forging/Runes, Druidry, Enchanting, Mysticism, Necromarecy, Runic Scribing, and Sorcery. *The user MUST have one esoteric skill to create a weapon above Journeymare rank item or higher 400: Basic Armor: is limited to a cap of 1DR and is not resistant to damage.

Although fairly new, it has earned a reputation for being a tough, trustworthy long ranged vehicle, capable of being configured to perform most mission specifications. 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. ***** >ARMOR CHARACTERISTICS: -Armor Durability: 250 Armor -Armor Class: Grade 5 Paneling -Armor Value: 4DR ***** >PILOTING CHARACTERISTICS: -Safe Cruising Speed: grants Expert Driving+4 -High Manual Control: grants Master Driving+6 -Maximum Speed: grants Master Driving+8 ***** >MOUNTED WEAPON CHARACTERISTICS: -Rear Weapon Ring: grants 2x [1d6+4] COMMON ITEMS: 2x Jerry Cans *************************************************************************************************************************************** >1990 Panhard VBL Recon in olive drab: a rugged all terrain sport utility vehicle built by French (or similar analogue) militaries, designed solely for tactical reconnaissance and battlefield command/control, though if absolutely required it can also perform direct infantry support. 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. ***** >ARMOR CHARACTERISTICS: -Armor Durability: 450 Armor -Armor Class: Modified Grade 5 Composite Panels -Armor Value: 5DR ***** >PILOTING CHARACTERISTICS: -Grants Expert Driving+5 for Cruising Speed -Grants Expert Driving+6 for Optimal Speed -Grants Expert Driving+8 for Maximum Speed -Grants Basic Stealth+3 ***** >MOUNTED WEAPON CHARACTERISTICS: -Central Cupola: grants 2x [1d6+4] STORAGE: 2x 5 Gallon Fuel Cans ***** >STOCK EQUIPMENT: -Armored Paneling: Modified Grade 5 -Attachment Hooks: numerous external hardpoints for transport -Chopin 4S-1 Troop Radio Control -Fully Amphibious -NBC Protected -VHF Battlefield Commarend/Control Transmitter-Receiver with a 50 mile radius *************************************************************************************************************************************** >OH-58X Kiowa Stealth Warrior: a highly advanced, pre-current generation hybrid attack helicopter. Smaller than the original, this Kiowa is vastly improved over it's previous generations with a lightweight titanium composite skin that reduces air friction and radar signature. 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. ***** >ARMOR CHARACTERISTICS: Armor Durability: 650 Armor Armor Class: Grade 4 Paneling Armor Value: 4DR ***** >PILOTING CHARACTERISTICS: -Grants Expert Flight Dynamics+8 during Combat Speed -Grants Expert Flight Dynamics+10 during Cruising Speed -Grants Expert Flight Dynamics+13 during Optimal Speed -Grants Expert Flight Dynamics+16 at Maximum Speed ***** >ELECTRONIC CAPABILITIES: -Advanced Electronic Warfare Array: grants a [1d6+4] PYLON MOUNTED WEAPON CHARACTERISTICS: -Right Pylon: grants 2x [1d6+4] STORAGE: Basic How To Fly for Dummies Manual, Basic Electronic Warfare for Dummies manual, Love Your Kiowa Maintenance manual, Intermediate Helicopter Operations manual *************************************************************************************************************************************** >Project OL-3 “Overlander, now renamed as the OT-4 “Landbarge”: originally an overbuilt IFV from the Nine Lands Coalition, constructed in orbit of Ocean World 5. Designed with the sole intention of cheaply, yet safely, transporting up to 12 Mechanized Assault Infantry, or 4 Assault Diver Exoframes, from coastal incursion vessels to shore. Extensively redesigned based off the ("Fuckin' useless!" -Lonestar) Overshore Lander 1 and 2 APC's, the original production models received several upgrades to act as both anti-drone and anti-Exoframe leader, culminating in the OL-3. Which is no longer relevant. Powered by a large, severely classified fusion-core reactor that accepts most physical materials as fuel. *Larger than the original by six tons, it has been GREATLY overhauled, upgraded, and extensively modified with… damned near everything. An orbitally produced high specification dititanium flex-alloy frame, previously classified but now known as an 8th stage particle-alloy, set atop a five-layered polyaramid hull, is rigid-bolted to the modified base structure. Declassified titanium alloy panels are spaced by sheets of woven monofilament meta-polyaramids, monoplated graphene, and two panes of Rerculon metamaterial OC9S. (“No, I don’t know what what stuff is. It was their wonder material. They knew how to make it, we simply couldn’t analyze it. Still can’t either.” -Lonestar) All act as a floatation assistant and provide excellent protection against conventional energy weapons, explosives, and esoteric weapons or effects. Now, however, the OT-4 can reasonably withstand medium ballistic weapons. Externally protected by overlapping dititanium hard plating, each section has been externally coated by eight layers of nanoceramic ablative coatings between fusion-spec quartzine for maximum protection. Multiple high compression air tanks allow the OT-4's operator to control the vehicle's height in water, either remaining under the surface down to a maximum of 1.5KM, 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) [“….BUT NOT ANY MORE! FUCK YOU EXOTECH BASTARDS!” -Lonestar, Septimber 39th, 29,998, around Dawn] Modified equipment includes four NitrOx filtration units, also capable of filling most air tanks using a variety of adaptive fittings. Eight hyper-compressed air storage tanks provide up to 30 hours of subsurface operation time (depending on depth and number of occupants). The integral fire suppression system throughout the OL-4’s interior has been redesigned to utilize either a nitrogen-foam, a fast setting liquid bio-ceramic spray, or a minimalist ceramic-carbon dioxide monoblend. 400 refurbished (and slightly modified) Nine Ship ExoTech Facility solid-state octoquantum electronic skin packages located throughout the hull allow both the gunner-operator and technician to monitor local conditions using six hybrid particle scanning arrays, which were significantly improved to nearly match corvette designs. (“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) [“AND THEY ALL SUCK NOW COMPARED TO THIS!” -Lonestar] *The base capabilities and systems are classified far above Lonestar's Ocean World 5 access grades, and would require serious reverse-engineering to copy ***** CABIN: The cabin is accessible through either a pair of large, command-pressurized NBCN sealed hatches on top, or from a sliding access door in the crew cabin's front-central dititanium monoplate, operated by two hydraulic rams, one on the floor, one in the roof. A simple disconnect lever can be switched, allowing the door to be opened by (marginal) force. Seating for a driver, gunner-operator, and technician has been greatly improved. Using inspiration from smaller gunboats and limited aerial assets, three highly comfortable, incredibly durable meta-aramic crash seats are equipped with a full suite of reinforced land-sea piloting controls, including a pair of joysticks for precision targeting. There is enough space between each to comfortably seat a human or equine on two small, folding crash chairs, though neither have controls and are limited to individual observation. Two large displays take up the entire front cabin’s monoplate interior: *The left side features a variable sized, tactical view of the local battlefield, able to designate biological, mechanical, magical, hybrid, and pretty much everything else. Before the first upgrade, this option could only be enabled by a satellite or unit with the proper command codes, though is now capable of managing its own duties due to a complete reconsolidation of a Rerculon AEHI (Artificial Enhanced Hyper-Intelligence) core. *The right side details the OT-4's weaponry, whether in reload, recharge, preheat, or overheat statuses, fusion-core conditions, damage (or lack thereof) for the armor and nearly every component, and a broad overlay to track the repulsor system’s operational statistics, conditions, and interferences. ***** PILOT: A full wraparound screen surrounds the pilot's crash chair, which displays a 360 degree view at all times of the 5KM (or 10,000 meters) surrounding the OT-4, granted by numerous overlapping sensors, arrays, and particle scanners embedded throughout the interior and hull. External and internal atmospheric pressures or densities, weapon conditions and recharge rates, armor estimations, calculations, and damage, advanced electronic system functions, failures, and interferences, repulsorlift or track-based drive train functions, and virtually every aspect of the OT-4 is accessible by the pilot. However, the sheer amount of data is impossible for a non-bionically enhanced individual to take in every second, and would easily cause a catastrophic information overload within minutes. *While the pilot COULD take control of all OT-4 systems, it is specifically recommended to leave all non-piloting functions for the gunner-operator and technician so that the pilot is able to solely concentrate on battlefield conditions and vehicular movement. *All systems receive information directly from the Optronic scanning modules, or will default to standard realtime AEHI assisted views. ***** GUNNER-OPERATOR: *The gunner-operator sits inside an enclosed, 360-degree wraparound cockpit with access to 15th generation thermal, infrared, night vision, particle recognition, sonar, LIDAR, electromagnetic, and multiple hybrid systems, granting unfettered information access out to 5KM. An Optronic scanning mode surveys the local battlefield at a 1/60th per second rate, and 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 or assets, including indicators of 'Friendly', 'Allied', 'Hostile', 'Enemy', or 'Unknown'. The right screen is a 1/60th per second updating tactical simulated view of the local area that can scale out to 10,000M (5 kilometer), or directly onto the OT-4’s armor. *The left joystick control operates both forward cannons, each with a 200 degree left to right operational window, but may only raise 90 degrees, and depress to -30 degrees. When targeting assets, a notation will display the target's range and possibility of armor 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 and 1M from the IFV's hull. *The gunner may also use an at-will firing mode if the systems are unable to tag an enemy asset *All systems receive information directly from the Optronic scanning modules, or will default to standard realtime AEHI assisted views.

Incorporating rune-scribed chainmail, tough tanned leather and Berylline squares, this gives the set highly desirable protection against physical harm, and, with some additional alterations from the Forgers, is resistant to most poisons. http://imgur.com/i6SjBUO (Far right set) -INCOMPLETE. -Armor Value: 4DR -Armor Class: Improved Light, Full Body -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/3 -Berylline Enhancemarent: reduces damage from natural, unnatural, Elemental, Otherworldly, and Spectral Poisons by 1/2 ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Trophy Knife (Weapon Traits: Unique Era): a single-edged, eight-inch steel skinning knife, primarily used to remove the heads of slain monsters for Witchers to show their contract holders necessary proof that a job has been completed.

The handle is wrapped in black leather, hand guards at a 45 degree angle, with a single basic wolf's head sculpted as the pommel. Used specifically to fight monsters that are weak to silver, obviously. -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed OR Two-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/1 -Mystical Enhancemarent #1: grants a [1d6+1] SUPPLIES: none. ***** >ALCHEMICAL ITEMS: -Swallow: a standard Witcher potion brewed from Celandine, strong alcohol, and... drowner brains.

Made from nine entire Island Drakehides, custom fit to one filly's exacting specifications for comfortable and fairly protective extended wear. 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. ("He didn't even ask her name.

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. One of two formerly owned by Lord Sevrit of Anfang before his timely execution, it's unknown as to which gryphon smith created these several centuries ago, but it's fairly likely that their descendant really doesn't want to admit as much. *Performance SEVERELY degraded due to combat damage -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/3 -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+1] RANGED WEAPONRY: >M1 Garand (Weapon Traits: Personal): a classic semi-automatic G.I. battle rifle used during World War 2 eras on most human worlds, fed from a uniquely shaped, 8 round En Bloc compression clip.

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. >Frostame Chunk, Small: a roughly fist-sized piece of dull white-blue crystalline material that absorbs, negates, and transmutes thermal energies, whether physical, magical, or Elemarental, into a small bubble of direct Ice magic, considered fully extinct. 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. >Stealth Boots: a custom pair of replacement boots made by either Kraut, Spiral, or both, imbued with small traces of the Underdark's notorious 'quiet' influence. -Adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls >Unknown Formicidae Specimaren: an impressively large example consisting of a 1' long, 8" tall, 5.8" wide bright yellow ant from an undetermined Formicidae order. Speculated to be from the lost Coville landmass of Tallus, it's well preserved in a large fossilized chunk of questionable amber. 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. >Unknown Planar Driftwood: a large, twisted chunk of water-worn, dull orange driftwood from a partial root section. Where this piece came from and what causes it to emit a painful, stinging jolt when touched is equally questionable as to how it arrived on Tallus. From direct observation, it may have links to the Mechano-Planar Rift, home of the Constructs. ***** >SUPPLIES: none? ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Gas Mask, Night Vision Goggles, Playing Cards, Remote Detonator, Skillet, Thermal Goggles ***** >EXPLOSIVES: 2x of each M67 Frag & C4 Brick ***** >MEDICAL ITEMS: 1x Antibiotics, 2x Bandage Rolls, 2x Emergency Medical Pouches, 1x Morphine Syrettes, 1x Painkillers, 1x Wound Dressing ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: >Island's Grace: a small, 2" in diameter and 3" in length, light brown ovoid coconut suspended on a simple silk necklace. Reportedly produced from either a Planar or Extra-Dimarensional tree that only grows on a number of highly dangerous, volcanic archipelagoes southeast and south from Cairn Wharf in the Lower Equestrian Moors. 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] PERSONAL ARMOR: >Armored Ribbon's Flight Suit (Armor Traits: Advanced, Crystal-Forged, Unique Era Locked): an advanced, thinly armored, lightweight full body aviator's suit, with a Ribbon marking on both the chest and red stripes on the legs, signifying Clemency as a true Ace of the skies. *Touched by the Empress -Armor Value: provides 3DR, full body -Armor Class: Unarmored Modified -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/3 -Minor Auto-Regen: restores +1HP/turn and prevents Bleeding -Defensive Enchantmarent #1: reduces the harm caused by ALL Eldritch, Otherworldly, Planar, Spectral, and Undead attacks, whether physical, marental, or spiritual, by 1/4 -Reactive Enchantmarent #1: when struck by any non-physical attack (such as offensive weapon Elemarental enchantmarents, Casting, Druidry, Necromarecy, Psionicism, or any other non-physical forms of harm) grants an AUTOMATIC defensive [1d6+X] Reinforced Ribbon's Flight Helmet (Armor Traits: Advanced Orbital Era Technology, Custom, Personal, Unique Era Locked): a unique low-visibility, armored head's up display helmet that allows Clemency to Mark and identify enemies, allies, and neutral targets to other Operators once the Radar function has been used. Comes with a fully integrated, highly advanced radio command & control suite, a self-contained air filtration system, and paired internal liquid plasma display screens, one of which is usually displaying images from the M-S.O.L.G. -Armor Value: provides 2DR to the entire head -Armor Class: Light Helmet, Modified -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 -Electronic Enhancement #1: grants a +3 UNIQUE CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Crystal Executioner's Kukri (Weapon Traits: Crystal-Forged, Unique Legendary Permarenent Artifact): a 1.8x larger version of a traditional kukri, this weapon was forged by Spiral from a pair of Imperial crystalline blades, purposefully created to meet Twisted Wing's exacting Starborn weaponry standards. Pegasi inscriptions cover the diamondine coated handle, with a caricature of Twisted Wing in the standard Lunar Guardian General armor emblazoned on each facing, smirking on one side of the blade, and her younger, much smaller, unarmored self smiling cheerfully on the other. Enhanced by Naliyna with a minor Imperial rune of the Ethereal plane, this weapon deals full damage to incorporeal beings, even those outside the physical spectrums.

This French-built (or equivalent) shotgun was thoroughly redesigned from its predecessor, given select improvements, and was also engineered to function as a semi-automatic through the use of a selector switch, allowing enhanced flexibility in either breaching or assault roles. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Shotgun rolls -Ammunition Capacity: 6/6 shells, comes with 12 buckshot & 6 slug -Armor Pierce: 2 for slugs, 4 for darts, 5 for finned darts -Ammunition Type #1: buckshot and flechettes have an optimal range of 50M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 10M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 80M.

Visually, Blackhorn is an imposing, heavily overbuilt, squat, and technically perfect ‘shotgun’. Features green body paint with black trim, 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 Planar Construct biotechnology used to approximate 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, while an integral Construct anti-gravity system negates over 90% of the weight and recoil. In theory, Blackhorn could be fired with one hand, but doing so requires both exceptional motor skills and excellent balance. 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 at the current time. *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 -Armor Value: 90 Armor -Armor Durability: 2DR -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Shotgun rolls -Ammunition Capacity: 30/30 Variable Shells, regenerates [1d6] shells each turn -NeuroOptic P1 Targeting Scope: adds +1 to all Shotgun rolls & +3 to a SINGLE Perception roll only when in use -Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: Integrally Suppressed Barrel: this weapon is 50% Suppressed, requiring a Perception roll of 5 or higher in order to identify direction fired from -Mechanical Enhancemarent #2: Gravitronic Anti-Recoil Adjustment: negates ALL recoil penalties *When targeting Armored/Heavily Armored, Electronic, or Mechanical targets, Clemency MUST add +2 to all Shotgun rolls *Rank 1 Progress: 0/999 >Ammunition Type #1: Stabilized Macro-Core Flechettes -Armor Pierce: 3 *Grants an additional [1d6+8] Ammunition Type #2: Kinetic Iso-Magnetic Rods -Armor Pierce: 4 *Grants an additional [1d6+8] Ammunition Type #3: Recalibrated Finned Darts -Armor Pierce: 6 *Grants an additional [1d6+8] SUPPLIES: none ***** >COMMON ITEMS: L-Flashlight, Map, Multi-tool, Radio ***** >EXPLOSIVES: none ***** >MEDICAL ITEMS: 1x Emergency Medical Pouch, EMS Bag ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: >Ambusher's Return Flight Seal: an ancient, small white and blue coin the same size as a 100 Bit gold piece, with a pair of white-iron pegasi wings melded on the opposite sides. The white face depicts a pegasi ambusher with a twin-beamed lance diving downwards, the blue face displaying the same ambusher covered in bandages and returning without her lance. When enchanted to a living being, this archaic seal imbues the owner with an exceptional Slowfall-Float enchantmarent. -If Clemency does not attack during a turn he MUST add +2 all Sprint rolls and utilize a Float enchantmarent -At any time he may also utilize a limited form of Flight up to 10 feet above any solid object, at any time, doing so converts ALL Sprint rolls to Flight, and must add +2 to all Flight rolls -Permarenently enchanted to him >Bloodstone: a small teardrop shaped bloodstone with an infused regenerative enchantmarent, created by a Grandmaster Crystal Singer from either the Kingdom Wardens, or one of the exceptionally rare few in the Starborn. Most are created in the Empire, making them exclusive and virtually impossible to acquire outside of specialized staff or occupations. *When enchanted to a living being or armor, the owner gains +1HP/turn and prevents up to Major Bleeding from occurring -Currently enchanted to his armor >Circle of the Unbroken Mind: a circle engraved on a crystalline coin that resonates a nearly impenetrable background hum and distortion, preventing mental intrusion from psions, Eldritch, Otherworldly, Planar, or Spectral beings, as well as other methods of contact. *Adds +1 to all Iron Will rolls -Permarenently enchanted to him >Defencer's Rune Shield: somewhat smaller than a buckler, this is a three-pronged crystalline shield meant to be attached as a frontal chest plate on Imperial Warden armor. Covered in multiple runes, the descriptions of each are precisely tuned to provide additional protection against beings unnatural to Tallus. *Reduces ALL damage from Eldritch, Extra-Planar, Otherworldly, Planar, Spectral, and Undead beings by 1/4, including ranged and esoteric capabilities -Currently enchanted to his armor >Flawless Moon Orb: a flawless sphere cut from the Hall of Tartarus, one of the enormous sub-structures within Luna's Citadel on the Moon, once typically given to Lunar Guardians, now necessary for all Lunar Guard officers, Starborn, and other Lunar Elites. These are a requiremarent for all Starborn to carry as a means to contact and directly speak with the Nightmare or any other Lunars during missions. -Currently owned by him. >Luna's Vintage Moor Wines: a collection of uniquely flavored vintage Moor wines, brewed by Luna herself once per year. -Year suspected to be 29,981 *10/12 remaining >Lunar Shard: a 5" long triangular fragmarent from the Moon, a remnant from the Citadel's construction. Unlike the other pieces of the Moon, these hold no special powers, and are given by Luna as a token of appreciation to those whom have served her children honorably. -Currently owned by him >Riftseeker Armor Plate: a 2'x2' bright orange plate taken from a Riftseeker, the second largest known Rift construct to have been encountered on Tallus. 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] 3x Vendor Coupons: a large white coupon with a printed, constantly changing stamp of Discord holding a Discord face mask, which is holding up a sign with Discord.

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 >M-S.O.L.G. ABILITIES: -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] PERSONAL ARMOR: none ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Folding Knife: unenchanted -Melee Weapon Class: Light -Hatchet: unenchanted -Melee Weapon Class: Medium ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: -Makarov PB-1 (Weapon Traits: Personal): an ancient, aging, small framed semi-automatic pistol using the 9x39MM cartridge.

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. *Grandmaster reforged by Krinza *Protected by the Empress -Melee Weapon Class: Two-Handed OR Dual One-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/3 -Armor Pierce: 2 (negates 2DR) -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+3] Enchanted Kukri -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Offensive Enchantmarent: [1d6] RANGED WEAPONRY: >Mk.

An archaically produced artifact created by the Nightmare, an unknown, but likely small, number of Daykillers were created in an effort to provide exceptional concealmarent for Lunar Guardian, then much later, Starborn, members during high risk missions. How Lucky got ahold of this one, nopony seems to know. ("Nope, it was stolen. I can even tell you which Starborn was closest when her Rogues hit that Lunar Armory." -Naliyna) *If Dante does not take part in an Operation, an Operator may retrieve it from him for use, but the Daykiller MUST be returned to him after the Operation is completed. *ONCE per Operation roll [1d6], the result is the number of turns a temporary bubble of the Underdark's notorious 'quiet' influence covers a 150M radius, preventing all forms of light (except for magical ones) from being seen *The user is unaffected, as are those with a deep connection to the Underdark (Jeff & Mercy for example), psions with an active Mind's Eye, or casters with Arcane Perception or similar, though Casters and Psions will suffer a -2 penalty to ALL esoteric abilities *Night Vision/Thermal/Infrared abilities can be used to view through the Underdark bubble *Causes a -4 penalty to all Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival for 2 turns after the effect fades >Diamond Studded Titanium MP3 Player: contains a vast library of music, and seems to have varying effects on fashion oriented mares >Heart's Fear: a highly intelligent, cunning, and utterly remorseless, shape-shifting near-Eldtritch being that takes random forms, usually those of nearby hostile creatures. Can also mimic the shape of powerful enchantmarents in proximity. Long known as one of the greatest Planar menaces, Heart's Fear are reviled opponents that require godlike willpower to combat due to their capability of creating and inducing the precise mental imagery, sounds, and of what the target fears most. ("Another stolen one..." -Naliyna) *Adds +2 to all Intimidation rolls *Currently enchanted to his armor >Lunar Seal: grants Armor Pierce 2 (negates 2DR) to a weapon and allows a [1d2] Mimicry Locket: a simple copper locket, incapable of being opened, that lets Dante mimic the voices of ponies he has heard before. Originally created by Spiral after his disastrous attempt to utilize the Elemarental cores recovered from a Dynasty era city-state. The sole purpose was to allow him to to speak normally, just in case his body becomes overtaken by a single Elemarent. *Allows a [1d6+1] Regal Sphere: a purple 'ring' that seems to be able to flow through dimarensions, itself appearing as flat disc, though it has no reverse and looks to be entirely one dimarensional. *Grants a [1d6+2] Relentless Escort Sigil: an ancient, moderately tarnished and faded bronze crest with an inscribed relief of an earth pony in blocky, archaic armor that bears a triangular headed lance, facing 90 degrees away from the viewer. Only three (now four, however) known functional sigils of this type, dating back to the Middle and Late Dynasty eras, remain in use across Tallus, and due to their extreme rarity the Empire Lorekeepers and historians of Germaneigh consider them the second rarest of all known Dynasty relics. Once awarded solely to veteran Escort wayfarers, heavily armed and armored psionic earth ponies responsible for keeping the physical roads of Equestria safe for all travelers. The fact that certain variations are known as the 'Relentless' variants prove Empress Silver herself oversaw their creation, seeming to imply that the bearers must have been awe inspiring indeed.

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. -Armor Value: provides +2DR when used to Bash or Shield Charge with, or when worn on the back -Armor Class: Medium Shield -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 -Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: adds +1 to and grants an additional Block roll >Knight's Mythriline Platemail (Armor Traits: Artifact, Custom-Fit, Unique): this is Indurian's original armor, completely refurbished and custom fit by the Grandmaster Armorer Krinza. Significantly lightened by replicating the original steel plates, instead using mythriline to keep it's structural integrity intact partial reinforcement, each additional component was replicated down to exacting details. Krinza has retained it's structure by analyzing and researching human smithing and fitting processes, allowing him to easily modify it further for additional protection and enchantmarents once requested. -Armor Value: provides 3DR, full body -Armor Class: Light -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 >Mythraline Platemail Helmet (Armor Traits: Artifact, Custom-Fit, Unique): A custom fit copy of his original helmet, composed entirely of a refined lightweight whitesteel and mythril alloy, although this one weighs roughly the same as the original anyhow. -Armor Value: provides 2DR to the entire head -Armor Class: Light Helmet -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/1 -Mechanical Enhancemarent: reduces the duration & effects of Concussions by 1/2 ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Celene (Weapon Traits: Custom, Unique): once a standard-issue Knight's longsword, over his years of service in Ivalice, Indurian personalized his weapon, having it reforged several times, sometimes to add things, other times because it was broken in battle. 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." -Melee Weapon Class: One-handed OR Two-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 3/3 -Modification: Two-Handed Block: gains an additional Block roll ONLY when using both hands to wield >Xiphos (Weapon Traits: Custom-Forged, Personal, Unique): approximately 55cm of high-carbon steel, hand-forged by the knight Indurian, bearing his makers mark just above the crossguard in the shape of a tattoo-like bull's head, this blade of Hellenic design is made primarily for slashing or chopping, as opposed to thrusting or more pinpoint methods of swordplay. 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. -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 -Sword and Board: can be used in tandem with Small Arms or other 1-handed weapons, but may not use with 2-Handed weapons ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: >Hegemony Short Crossbow (Weapon Traits: Custom): a traditional Hegemony crossbow specifically used to train young minotaurs, ones approximately the height of a regular human, in the art of marksbullship. Built similar to medieval human crossbows, this one is functionally equivalent, featuring a rounded steel hoof/boot loop for recocking, a single long steel arm, a plainly grooved ironwood body, a long steel mesh cable, a cocking lever and cable pinch, and a wide bronze-plated trigger with a simple steel guard. Compared to standard human crossbows, this one is considerably easier to reload due to an unusually flexible hi-alloy steel cable which tensions only during specific pressure. Comes with a leather sling bag capable of holding 20x bolts. -Base Modifier: none -Ammunition Class: Archery -Maximum Optimal Range: 100M with a -1 penalty to all Archery rolls per 75M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 400M >Ammunition Type #1: Steel Tipped Bolts, unenchanted and otherwise plain 3' long maple shafted bolts with a standard triangular piercing tip; grants Armor Pierce 1 (negates 1DR) ***** >SUPPLIES: Water Canister ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Blanket, Book, Box of Matches, Fishing Kit, HMA Headset, Mess Kit, Pot, 2x Rope, Sewing Kit, Sleeping Bag ***** >MEDICAL ITEMS: 4x each of Bandage Boxes & Wound Dressings ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: -Cavallade Hoofband #2 of 2.

In reality this is an original piece of auracite, one of the Twelve Zodiac Stones in Ivalice legends. 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. *************************************************************************************************************************************** Ivan the Stalker: ***** >PERSONAL ARMOR: >Kevlar Helmet -Armor Value: provides 1DR to the head -Armor Class: Light Helmet -Mechanical Enhancement: reduces the duration & effects of Concussions by 1/2 >Plate Carrier Vest -Armor Value: provides 1DR to the chest -Armor Class: Light ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: -Wood Axe: a common brand of wood cutting and chopping axe, often made with a maple haft and an excellent steel alloy head. Suitable for most uses, although a bit unwieldy for combat purposes. -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls ***** >UNIQUE ARMOR: -Modified Stalker Exoskeleton (Crystal-Forged, Custom-Fit, Experimental Tallus Crystal-Tech, Tallus-made, Personal, Unique Reproduction): 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 said motions 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. In short, the crystalworks system 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] CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: none ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: >Custom M134 (Special Heavy Weapon Traits: Advanced, Bulky, Heavy, Modified, Two-Handed, Unique-Copied): a custom ordered, extensively refit, 70-pound 7.62x51MM NATO chaingun. 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 recently 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.

While an older design, the Dragunov, using the ubiquitous 7.62x54mmR cartridge, is still a rather common combloc/Warsaw Pact rifle to find, owing to it's ease of maintenance and excellent accuracy.

Although the G36 often suffered from overheating after several magazines and rather poor magazine while overheated, the A-variant corrected this issue with a slower firing rate, a thicker barrel, and aluminum parts rather than polymer or plastic. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Combat Rifle rolls -Ammunition: 5.56x43MM NATO, Combat Rifle -Armor Pierce: 1 -Magazine Capacity: 30/30 cartridges.

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] ZONE ARTIFACTS, CLEAR SKY ERA: >Slug: a palm sized chunk of what looks like a plasticized, brown semi-clear glass, weighing one pound (or 2.2KG). 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] Sparkler: a rather strange piece of vulcanized crystal, eerily and accurately shaped like a human vertebrae, weighing one pound. Taking the form of a double-fist sized sphere, Sparklers are a roiling mass of electricity contained inside a white, blue, and yellow colored sphere, somewhat resembling a Tesla Ball. 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] PERSONAL ARMOR: >Blood Drinker's Terror Half-Mask (Armor Traits: Custom-Fit, Lunar-Forged, Magitek-Forged, Unique): A custom fit and shaped, gunmetal gray colored titanium plate protector with a sealed custom made integrated gas mask along with one of Spiral's original miniature radio systems. 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. -Armor Value: provides 1DR across the lower face -Armor Class: Medium Half Mask -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/2 -Utility Enchantmarent #1: grants permarenent water-breathing -Utility Enchantmarent #2: adds +2 to all Intimidation rolls, improved to +3 when used against ponies, excepting batponies, certain Night & Lunar Guard, Starborn, Honor Guard, or those that are Fearless >Completed Ranger's Armor (Armor Traits: Custom-Fit, Magitek-Forged, Unique Legendary Permarenent Artifact): A unique black and cobalt blue striped armored suit, resembling the advanced combat armor of his home world, grandmaster refit by Spiral and Krinza. Empress Silver, building off Krinza's prototype work, completed his armor with the addition of two etched titanium alloy 75th Ranger pauldrons, one for each shoulder. *Touched by the Empress -Armor Value: provides 5DR, full body -Armor Value: Enhanced Light -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/5 -Defensive Enchantmarent #1: reduces all Elemarental damage by 1/4, whether physical or Mystical in nature -Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls -Reactive Enchantmarent #1: grants an AUTOMATIC defensive [1d6+X] FAST Tac-Helmet (Armor Traits: Advanced, Composite, Custom-Fit, Unique-Copied): A slightly post-modern ballistic helmet from Jeff's world, widely used by many countries' armed forces. Composed of high-modulus polyethylene interspersed with thin titanium-carbide plating, allowing it to resist great amounts of impact and reducing 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. -Armor Value: provides 2DR to most of the head -Armor Class: Light Helmet -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/1 -Electronic Enhancemarent #1: allows Jeff to share his TacPad's video feed -Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: reduces the duration & effects of Concussions by 1/2 -Mechanical Enhancemarent #2: grants a [1d6+4] CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >[Name Unknown] (Weapon Traits: unknown): when compared to a 'normal' biteblade, this verifiably archaic Lunar Guardian example is magnitudes above and beyond, created to the exacting specifications of Princess Luna during the troubled period between the Early and Middle Dynasty Eras. 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] Enchanted Combat Knife -Melee Weapon Class: Light -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Offensive Enchantmarent: grants a [1d6] Perfected Impact-Dispersion Gauntlets (Weapon Traits: Lunar-Forged, Magitek-Forged, Unique Legendary Permarenent Artifact): a pair of exceptional leather gloves covered by woven mythril mesh fit overs. 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 features a metacrystallized black platinum oval, emblazoned and inscribed with powerful alternating unicorn runes and gryphon sub-glyphs that signify the Elemarent of Lightning. Ten short claws are embedded atop the finger guards, and can be locked into place for constant use, allowing Jeff a slight piercing capability with them. *Grandmaster reforged by Krinza, Perfected by Luna *Touched by the Empress -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/4 -Passive Enchantmarent: adds +1 to all Evasion rolls -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+2] Void Diver's Transfused Tomahawk (Weapon Traits: Lunar-Forged, Otherworld-Forged, Unique Legendary Void Artifact): created from a single long Void Diver's claw, it was formerly a single-edged 14" blade, though Krinza has recently reforged it into a 6" long tomahawk blade with a 3" spike on the rear, considerably thicker and as a result numerous magnitudes more durable than 'tactical' styled variants. 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 -Melee Weapon Class: Light-Modified -Base Modifier: adds +3 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/3 -Armor Pierce: 2 (negates 2DR) -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+2] RANGED WEAPONRY: -A.A.C.

This compact weapon features a suppressor that takes up almost the entire barrel making it practically silent, while the slow subsonic round punches through most standard armor.

VII Magnum Research Desert Eagle (Weapon Traits: Bulky, Heavy, Personal): a heavy, expensive, and fairly bulky semi-automatic pistol designed by Magnum Research, then revised by IMI. This particular model, the Mark VII, is chambered in the powerful .50 Action Express cartridge, and was explicitly marketed as a big game defense & hunting pistol, particularly for wild boar and bear. Despite it's nearly overwhelming recoil and stiff, easily damaged springs, helpfully replaced by Anon at some point in time, the Mk. VII is quite lethal against most targets. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: .50AE, Magnum Small Arms -Armor Pierce: 1 -Magazine Capacity: 7/7 cartridges, comes with 3x magazines -Maximum Optimal Range: 100M with a -1 penalty per 50M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 200M -Model 29 Colt Python (Weapon Traits: Personal): an older, but still quite capable, 6-cartridge cylinder revolver in .357 Magnum, one of the first production line swinging cylinder models, adding to a reputation that would last well over 50 years. *Stored in the Sportsman's rear cargo compartmarent. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: .357 Magnum, Magnum Small Arms -Armor Pierce: 1 -Cylinder Size: 6/6 cartridges, comes with 3x speed loaders -Maximum Optimal Range: 100M with a -1 penalty per 50M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 200M -Spellslinger's Revolver (Special Weapon Traits: Magitek-Forged, Unique-Copied Permarenent Legendary Artifact): a custom Magitek-made copy of a Taurus Judge revolver, the cylinder modified to utilize six elemarentally-imbued cylindrical power crystals in place of traditional ammunition.

She prized this as her most valuable item recovered, even more so after the Imperial Historical Museum allowed her to keep it. *It was, however, taken hostage by Belltower, then given to Jeff >Dusk Film: an incredibly disgusting film that tastes like sour ashes, supposedly collected from the dew of decaying tears of reality in the Moors. -Adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls -Gains +1HP each turn in dark areas *Permarenently enchanted to him >Epson WorkForce WF-3520: A wireless multi-functional printer pre-synced with Jeff's tacpad to print any picture he has stored on it while in the Fortress.

Designed for excellent concealmarent and portability, it is quite easy to maintain even by a novice operator.

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

This specific one was fit specifically for Lont during a redesign. On request, Krinza added tightly overlapping tungsten-steel composite leaf scales to provide a good balance of protection with little need to reduce weight. At that time however, he could not improve the suit’s difficult resonance-maintaining capabilities, leaving it in the Heavy classification. On a later request from Lont, Krinza would experimarent with exclusively shaped micro-manabomb charges to produce an effect similar to a unique armor worn by Bellepheron, a renowned Empire singer, crystal-forger, and engineer. Adding three sheets of the fully sealed manabomb material to the stomach, chest, and a half-sheet on each upper arm, it allowed for a surprisingly effective offensive capacity against unwary targets. Much later, Krinza removed the micro-manabomb charges, then replaced the outer composite scales with exacting segmarents, painstakingly cutting replacemarents, one by one, from a Hyfalgyph scale, to match the originals. During the slow process of adapting, translating, redirecting, and stabilizing the Eldritch-Otherworld Hyfalgryph’s still vital essences, Krinza removed most of Spiral’s modifications to better fit Lont. This allows for maximum movement potential and future modifications. Further reinforcing the interior kevlar layers by the additions of numerous thin, inflexible, flexible, interlocking, and overlapping smaller internal plates, the current design matches the original’s Heavy classification with less than 30% the original’s weight. As an aftereffect, it seems to sing in tune whenever Lont performs an action or speaks in a marener that ponies find agreeable. *Enhanced by Princess Cadence with a fragmarent from an original Imperial Shield emblem -Armor Value: provides 4DR to the entire body -Armor Class: Modified Light -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/3 -Mechanical Enhancemarent #1: adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls -Defensive Enchantmarent #1: reduces ALL damage from primarily or purely esoteric Casting, Druidic, Elemarental, Planar, Psionic, Otherworldly, Spectral, and Undead by 1/4, EXCLUDING Eldritch, Mysticism, and Necromancy/Necromarecy -Defensive Enchantmarent #2: grants 2x [1d6+6] Thermal-Integrated Barbute (Armor Traits: Artifact, Custom-Fit, Magitek-Forged, Unique): a closed-face, full head helmet, the original Salade design's interior copied and completely replaced using refined mythril by Krinza. 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 eye opening to protect against debris and shrapnel. -Armor Value: provides 3DR to entire head -Armor Class: Modified-Medium Helmet -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 -Electronic Enhancemarent #1: adds a +3 CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Sharonel's Engraved Mural Greatsword (Weapon Traits: Destroyer-Forged, Two-Handed, Unique Legendary Permarenent Artifact): a mythril and kanpri faced 46" long greatsword, a 14" handle, wrapped in black and white Planar spider silk by Lann, two 10" long guards jutting out and angled 20 degrees downwards from each side, weighing 5 kilograms. The left side is a stark white mythril, from the tip to the base of the handle; the right a mixed purple and black from highly refined kanpri, both faces infused and strengthened with a thin, crystallized diamondine layering. Lengthened by Krinza, a scene of numerous prominent Solar Guardians surrounding General Sharonel the Lancer facing the Solar Tyrant is featured on the mythril facing, the kanpri facing displaying a fully armored Sharonel and Queen Chrysalis with numerous Vanguards behind her, side by side towards the hilt facing an armored Nightmare on the tip, all smiling competitively towards each other. *Grandmaster reforged by Krinza *Touched by the Empress -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed OR Two-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/3 -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+3] RANGED WEAPONRY >Custom Gunblade (Special Weapon Traits: Custom, Magitek-Forged, Personal, Unique): a personalized Smith & Wesson 29 revolver with an improved, balanced 6" long mythril blade protruding from under the barrel. The cylinder was modified to accommodate six power crystals, three of each aligned to Lightning and Void elemarents respectively, as well as replacing the hammer with a moderately dense rubber to prevent any feedback from occurring, also making it impossible to use standard ammunition. -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte & +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: Elemarental, fires either Ferrundus Spiker (Special Weapon Traits: Advanced, Custom, Heavy, Post Orbital Era, Two-Handed, Unique): in appearance a larger, and heavier, version of a highly advanced UTS-15, this 4-gauge Spiker is the mainstay weapon used by basic infantry in most Ferrundii armies with a wide number of production variants, this example being a shorter barreled pump-action/semi-auto hybrid normally in use by Outriders, which, along with their Snarling Lances, gave them a powerful ranged weapon when the arsenals of their warbikes either had no use, or would be ineffective. 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 -Ammunition Type #2: darts & slugs have a maximum optimal range of 150M with a -1 penalty to all Heavy Shotgun rolls per 50M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 250M. *Slugs have Armor Pierce 2, darts have Armor Pierce 4 -Ammunition Type #3: finned darts have a maximum optimal range of 200M with a -1 penalty to all Heavy Shotgun rolls per 50M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 350M *Finned darts have Armor Pierce 5 -Ammunition Type #4: Livermorium slugs & darts have a maximum optimal range of 250M with a -1 penalty to all Heavy Shotgun rolls per 50M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 400M *Livermorium slugs ignore 1/2 DR and cause extensive trauma, darts ignore 10DR >SPAS-12 (Weapon Traits: Personal): a modern improvemarent on previous military type pump-action designs, the SPAS was also developed with a semi-automatic function in mind to allow flexibility in it's usage. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Shotgun rolls -Ammunition Capacity: 6/6 shells, comes with 12x buckshot & 6x slug -Ammunition Type #1: buckshot and flechettes have an optimal range of 50M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 10M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 80M. Comes with 29x Buckshot. Flechettes have Armor Pierce 4 -Ammunition Type #2: darts and slugs have an optimal range of 80M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 20M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 140M. Comes with 32x Slugs. Slugs have Armor Pierce 2, darts have Armor Pierce 4 -Ammunition Type #3: finned darts have an optimal range of 120M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 20M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 160M.

Lont's own personal machine, brought from his world before the momarent of his death. 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.

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 >Mechanicus Carapace Plate (Armor Traits: Poor Quality, Cadian Pattern, Unique Era Locked): one of the more well known designs across the Imperium, this set of carapace plate is colored in the traditional rust red of the Mechanicus, featuring the traditional skull and gear symbol across the chest. 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] Mechanicus Combat Shield (Armor Traits: Common Quality, Mars Pattern, Unique Era Locked): one of the least seen pieces of wargear in the AdMech, Mechanicus combat shields are a simple 2' tall, 1.5' wide shield composed of thin, stamped steel sheets. colored in the traditional Mechanicus rust red, reinforced with a seamless bead around the edges, then mounted with a simple steel ring to slot one's arm through and a handle to grip. -Armor Value: provides +1DR when used to Bash or Shield Charge with, or when worn on the back -Armor Class: Light Shield -Defensive Enhancemarent #1: adds +1 to and grants an additional Block roll -Sword and Board: can be used in tandem with Small Arms or other 1-handed weapons, but may not use with 2-Handed weapons ***** ARTIFICER-CLASS LIGHT ARMOR: >Ordo Chronos Flak Helmet (Armor Traits: Artificer, Custom Fit, Sanctioned Artifact, Tallus-made): visually looking like one of the most common pieces of wargear throughout the Imperium, the basic Mars Pattern Flak Helmet.. this is NOT one of those. 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 >Ordo Chronos Flak Bodysuit, Unfinished (Armor Traits: Artificer, Custom Fit, Sanctioned Artifact): created in the same marener as her Flak Helmet, Inquisitor Velasi spent several weeks devising a near-perfectly form fitting armor from a combination of several thousand STC designs. This one in particular blends the best aspects of lightweight, mobile Flak with semirigid, survivability focused Carapace together with the longevity and comfort expected of Tallus materials. 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] CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Omnissian Axe (Weapon Traits: Common Quality, Forge-World Pattern, Unique Era Locked): a 4' in length armaplas alloy haft with an affixed unit consisting of a half-circle armaplas blade bearing the skull and gear symbol of the Mechanicus forwards. A standard set of AdMech tools is mounted rearwards on an extended ceramite bar. 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 ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: >M36 Laspistol (Weapon Traits: Laser, Poor Quality, Standard Pattern, Unique Era Locked): the third most mass produced weapon in the Imperium, the M36 Laspistol design is little more than a plastic pistol frame embedded with an electro-circuit board, a firing trigger, an armaplas barrel, 1 focusing array, 1 power cell, and given a tiny machine spirit. 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 >M36 Lasrifle (Weapon Traits: Laser, Common Quality, Standard Pattern): the second most widely produced weapon in the Imperium after the Mars Pattern Lasrifle, the M36 version has a more robust construction than later variants and is thus easier to maintain. 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, but uses 2 charges per shot -Ammunition Class: Rifle Laser, Semi-Automatic -Magazine Capacity: 60/60 shots, comes with 3x Rifle Power Packs -Optimal Range: 300M, with a -1 penalty to all Light Energy Weapon rolls per 200M beyond this range -Maximum Range: 900M ***** >SUPPLIES: 2x Canteens, 4x Officer's Field Rations ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Blanket, Lasweapon Maintenance Kit, Magnoculars, Mess Kit, Sleeping Bag, Wire Cutters ***** >EXPLOSIVES: 3x Smoke Grenades, 4x Frag Grenades, 2x High Explosive ***** >MEDICAL ITEMS: Box of Bandages ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: >Approved Administratum Mechanicus CQ Dataslate (Unique Era Locked): a 10" tall, 8" wide, 1/2" thick carbon plate installed with a self-recharging power cell, a miniature cogitator, and sseveral data cores. 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. >*Approved Administratum Mechanicus Maintenance Kit (Unique Era Locked): a plastic hardcase containing a handheld techno-mystical code-scanning device. 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 >*Approved Administratum Mechanicus Tool & Fabrication Kit (Unique Era Locked): an armaplas hard case packed with ceramite wrenches, nut drivers, screwdrivers, hex keys, star pin drivers, screwdrivers, and sockets. 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 >Enginseer Combi-tool (Unique Era Locked): perhaps the most bizarre looking implement built by the Mechanicus, a Combi-tool is a simple armaplas casing installed with a small prybar and a sharp ceramite scraper along with multiple adjustable ratcheting wrenches, screwdrivers, hex keys, and star pin drivers of every size. *Adds +1 to all Engineering rolls when used *May not be used with a Tool & Fabrication Kit >Utility Mechaendrite (Implant Traits: Custom-Implant, Common Quality, Standard Pattern, Unique Era Locked): the most wide spread cybernetic implant used by the Cult Mechanicus, this is a basic utility mechadendrite, 6' in length and 3” in circumference. This specific design is intended to aid Enginseers in most of their common duties. 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] 3x Vendor Coupons: a large white coupon with a printed, constantly changing stamp of Discord holding a Discord face mask, which is holding up a sign with Discord.

First is a specially designed, custom hoofmade turtleneck with an elongated triangle cut atop the breasts for excellent exposure quality, a snug but well fitting pair of cargo pants. Completed by a traditional Stalliongrad style light overcoat, well insulated to protect against the Northern New Everfree's notorious cold. -Armor Value: Turtleneck & Fatigues provide 1DR, Overcoat provides an additional 1DR when worn -Armor Class: Unarmored -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 1/2 -Utility Enchantmarent #1: adds +1 to all Charm & non-combat Stealth rolls >Custom Bluesteel Bodysuit (Armor Traits: Artifact, Custom-Fit, Bluesteel-Forged, Magitek-Forged, Unique): created from a damaged, but complete, set of pegasi bluesteel armor taken from Skykeep by Natalia and forged to fit her, though she retired. Choosing to create woven strands of semi-fluidic bluesteel in two layers, Spiral further reinforced the exterior with the addition of smaller, overlapping flexible plates for greater protection. Was acquired by Eric over a year later but never used. The inner layer is provided a measure of shock absorbance via cured and tanned basilisk hide padding melded to the fluidic wire stranded frame, now entirely refit by Krinza for Natilda to wear, allowing full freedom of movemarent without sacrificing much needed protection. -Armor Value: provides 3DR, full body -Armor Class: Light -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 -Defensive Enchantmarent #1: reduces ALL Ice damage caused, whether physical, magical, Elemarental, Mystical, or Planar by 1/2, though may not work against Eldritch ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: ? ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: >M91 Mosin-Nagant (Weapon Traits: Personal): an extremely rugged, nearly ancient patterned bolt-action rifle with a 5-round internal magazine. Once holding the title of the most mass produced firearm in history, of which the AK-47 now holds that prestigious rank, there are approximately 100 standard Mosin-Nagant rifle variants, that number expanding nearly exponentially if one considers how many human worlds there are. 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. Due to its weight, the M91's recoil is noticeably less than carbine variants, and makes an excellent impromptu spear whenever kebabs need removing, allowing it to be used as a melee weapon. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Battle Rifle rolls -Ammunition Class: 7.62x54mmR, Battle Rifle -Armor Pierce: 3 -Magazine Capacity: 5/5 cartridges, comes with 7x 5-round clips -Maximum Optimal Range: 500M with a -1 penalty per 200M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 1,100M -Attachmarent #1: Scope: adds +1 to Battle Rifle rolls & +2 to a SINGLE Perception roll only when in use -Attachmarent #2: Bayonet: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls only when in use >Tokarev TT-33 (Weapon Traits: Personal): a small framed, semi-automatic pistol chambered in 7.62×25mm Tokarev, meant to replace the M1895 Nagant Revolver in most Russian Imperial armies, although both weapons were often used alongside each other. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: 7.62×25M Tokarev, Small Arms -Armor Pierce: 0 -Magazine Capacity: 8/8 cartridges.

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 ALL damage from primarily or purely esoteric Casting, Druidic, Elemarental, Planar, Psionic, Otherworldly, Spectral, and Undead by 1/4, EXCLUDING Eldritch, Mysticism, and Necromancy/Necromarecy *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] Improved Self-Contained NBCA Committee Helmet (Armor Traits: Advanced Technology, Crystal-Forged, Custom-Fit, Unique Era Locked Advanced Tallus Crystalline Artifact): an externally light black colored, bubble-styled Nuclear-Biological-Chemical-Anomalous resistant helmet. 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 (Raw): 2/2 -Technological Slots Remaining: 1/2 -Black Sapphirine Enhancement: reduces all damage caused by Void Elemarentals 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+4] CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Enchanted Combat Knife -Melee Weapon Class: Light -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls ***** >UNIQUE CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Hermit's Pinksteel Dagger (Weapon Traits: Artifact, Unique): formerly a rough, patchwork Pinksteel biteblade, minorly reinforced and repaired on the spot by Celestia, now an 8" long single bladed dagger with a 6" handle, the edge tapering to a long, curved point. The grip is some form of carved wood, species unknown, while the blade itself is a rushed forge job, but till 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 Guard squad 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: Pinksteel, allows the user to harm incorporeal or non-physical Otherworldly, Planar, Spectral, and Undead beings, also granting a [1d6+4] Mythril Staff (CORRUPTED Living Artifact): a light, 5' tall mythril-infused oak branch, still living somehow, shaped by Spiral into a triangular headed walking staff. Shaped to look like tiny forest dragon heads, the mouths are empty. 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 -Advanced Modifier: adds +4 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls against Spectrals and Undead -Unicorn Adapted: adds +2 to all Casting rolls -Inherent Ability: Deathbane, grants a [1d6+4] Panorama Blade (Weapon Traits: Graven-Carved, Unique-Copied Legendary Permarenent Artifact): a thick, 28" long, slightly curved sword with an 8" handle and oversized guards. 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. Recognized as a Pegasi-Batpony League Era piece, it was originally a poleblade. -Melee Weapon Class: One-Handed OR Two-Handed -Base Modifier: adds +3 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/3 -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+2] Slumbering Wrath (Unknown Legendary Otherworldly Artifact): a 2" in diameter, 3' long shaft of an unknown dim blue wood species, connected to a 6" in diameter spherical mass of shifting bright blue Otherworldly energies. 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] UNIQUE RANGED WEAPONRY: -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. Mostly remarkable for its extended barrel length, the bright red LED counter on the right side sits above a dull 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 though 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 (or a much later analogue), 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, 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 and weapons would be placed, in stasis of course, in the Otherworldly Historical Wing: Human Technologies in its own exhibit. -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Battle Rifle OR Combat Rifle rolls -Ammunition Class: 11x92MM EM Mauser, Specialized Battle Rifle -Armor Pierce: 4 -Magazine Capacity: 20/20, comes with 3x 20 round magazines -Maximum Optimal Range: 600M with a -1 penalty per 200M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 1,200M -Attachment #1: 4x20 D1G-3 Medium Digiscope: adds +1 to all Battle/Combat Rifle rolls & +4 to a SINGLE Perception/Scouting/Wilderness Survival roll, only when in use -Attachment #2: External Suppressor: this weapon is 80% suppressed, requiring a Perception roll of 9 or higher to determine the direction fired from -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. 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 overall comfort. The original front sights were exchanged for a halo ring rear and high visibility electron-magnified front post that improves CQB accuracy substantially, while an off-side mounted holosight is intended 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 an 8+1 capacity, and the standard 4" shell increases recoil by a noticeable amount. One unusual deviation is a somewhat complicated, albeit robust, addition of a 13-shell drum fed magazine and two stage quick-selection 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 20M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 120M -Ammunition Type #2: darts and slugs have an optimal range of 160M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 80M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 320M -Ammunition Type #3: finned darts have an optimal range of 200M with a -1 penalty to all Shotgun rolls per 100M beyond this range, and a maximum range of 500M -Attachment #1: KGE Holosight, adds +1 to all Shotgun rolls when in use *ERA: Late Information Age ***** UNIQUE PLANAR RANGED WEAPON: >Name Unknown (Weapon Traits: Advanced Hybrid Design, Custom, Era Irrelevant, Tallus/Planar-Locked, UNIQUE): an extremely bizarre ‘pistol’, in physical appearance only, made from unknown metallic alloys found within the Storm King’s Room. Features a decently comfortable grip, a thoroughly unpleasant heavy trigger to prevent accidental containment release, and a well shielded trigger guard, The silhouette is highly unique, though cannot accept ammunition of any type. Created early morning Septimber 39th, 29,998 Tallus date, in the Storm King’s Room on the Elemarental Plane of Lightning. An overbuilt, double rectangular body hides a complex series of precision-channeled objects that can only be loosely described as ‘components’. An overbuilt, shielded chamber at the rear is capable of containing a single Graviton in a semi-fluidic state, able to withstand the immense pressures of releasing containment, The central chamber is an electromagnetic directional guide, intended to instruct the Graviton on it’s intended route, and a forward subatomic decompression/recompression chamber that minimizes noise, heat displacement, and recoil. Desiring a solution for dealing with specific targets that standard weapons do not normally contend with, Pareidolia utilized the purpose built conceptual tools and highly logical Planar interfaces to recreate a Graviton Pulse Emitter, resulting in extreme modifications from the original’s specifications, mostly due to lacking technical skills and material knowledge. This weapon’s end results are similar to the original, though heavily modified: containing a willing Graviton in semi-stasis, then releasing it at a single main target to inflict spectacular damage, allowing Pareidolia to direct its travel path by small degrees if possible. *Bypassing most of the normal energy-matter states on Tallus allows this weapon to remain undetected, existing conceptually until being returned to one or both of Pareidolia’s hands. However, his mental insistence and guidance to achieve capability in overpowering Psionicism has thoroughly tainted the weapon’s principles, though not irrevocably. *Advanced Modifier: adds +5 to all Small Arms rolls *Ammunition Class: Contained Graviton *Armor Disruption 9: causes 9 Hostile Gravity damage, DESTROYS 9 Armor in affected area, and PREVENTS Armor from regenerating for 9 turns in that location *Containment: 0/1 Graviton *EFFECTIVE RADIUS: 2 hooves (8” radius/16” circumference) on Tallus, 0.4999M in the Plane of Lightning, and precisely 1M in the Plane of Gravity -Maximum Optimal Range: 100M with a -1 penalty to all Small Arms rolls per 2,000M of travel -Maximum Effective Range: speculated to be 10,000M on Tallus, unknown otherwise *When dealing with physical targets, Pareidolia must roll a [1d6+9] RANGED WEAPONRY: >FN F2000 Tactical (Weapon Traits: Personal): a lightweight, modular bullpup combat rifle designed to utilize a short covered bolt, improving functionality in adverse environments, although the range suffers considerably from a short overall barrel.

While the caliber is significantly smaller than 9x19MM, it boasts greater velocity than the same, has slightly better armor penetration than the 7.65x21MM cartridge, and features greatly reduced recoil.

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 pseudo-physicality, when Crin translate from the Vortex Plane onto Tallus, all share 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 >Crystal Empire Exploration Consortium Variant-5CTA Field Detection System: an 8" tall, 10" wide, 2" thick, 5 pound marvel of Crystal Engineering. Derived from the Spire Crystalworks Technologies 5BTA created in the 28,900's, this upgraded, late 29,980's model was well received and lauded by Explorer teams. 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 5BTA due to having greater storage capacity, a sturdier display, and better functionality. 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. Considerably more refined than even the best PDA’s and similar devices, the cost of a basic unit like this one, even without an InterPony or additional features, is considered to be ruinous to those that aren’t directly affiliated with the Crystal Empire’s various Consortiums. *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 features a Magnetic Vapor Crystallo-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 Mapping up to 100 kilometers (feeds cumulative data from Local Geography use) -Height Distance of targets (estimated) -Depth Distance of targets (estimated) -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 (minimum to maximum, once set the unit will remain at this strength; currently at Detection Strength 8) -Objective Storage: contains data on all previously scanned targets, or perform indepth analysis including image recordings *Language Selection options are: Crystal Kingdom, Crystal Empire, Common Equestrian, Batpony, Common Pegasi, Earth Pony, Unicorn, Saddle Arabian, Minotaur, and Gryphon >Dragon-Scale Sphere: a 4" in diameter, mostly Neighsian dragon with some Otherworld influences, the longer claws and prominent teeth being noteworthy. 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] Experimental Holo-Laptop: a battered, partially functional octagonal gray digital laptop with a cracked red lens for an "On" button in the center, a holographic keyboard, and a 120-degree panoramic 'screen'. 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] Flawless Moon Orb: a flawless sphere cut from the Hall of Tartarus, one of the enormous sub-structures within Luna's Citadel on the Moon, once typically given to Lunar Guardians, now necessary for all Lunar Guard officers, Starborn, and other Lunar Elites. These are a requiremarent for all Starborn to carry as a means to contact and directly speak with the Nightmare or any other Lunars during missions. -Currently owned by him. >Ghost-Speak Ring: a dented steel ring inscribed with Necromarentic sigils and runes on a rusted iron chain. Allows the wearer to speak to, and understand, Spectral or otherwise dead beings, regardless of species or language. *Does nothing to prevent Spectrals from becoming hostile, however. >Lacsidrae: penned in relatively recent years, this is an unassuming, thin white tome slightly larger than the average notebook. 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. *Dancing Eyes did make a notation, with quite a bit of humor, that she thinks the tome is still 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, or Late. I mean the Dynasty descendants. You.. ..do know some still exist, yes? ...how DO you not know of them Amerose?" -Shade Skipper) -ONE bound 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. *Master Armor Shred+6, ignores DR, deals double damage to Fragile & Armored targets *Master Central Fracture+6, ignores DR, deals double damage to Ethereal and Fragile targets *Master Glacial Wave+6, knocks or pushes targets 20M away from epicenter, deals double damage to Fire Elementals *Master Ice Storm+6, ignores DR, inflicts Frozen on a max critical, deals double damage to Fragile targets *Master Plasma Haze+6, inflicts Blind on a max critical and deals double damage to Spectral and Undead targets *Master Spectral Stormsurge+6, ignores DR, deals double damage to Spectral targets *Master Sun's Wrath, inflicts Scorched on a max critical, deals double damage to Fragile targets *Master Voidrend+6, ignores DR, deals double damage to Planar and Undead targets >Mist-Foam Circlet: a softly glowing white and green-blue tinged band, 8" in diameter, 1/2" tall, 1/4" wide, weighing less than 1 ounce. Can comfortably fit atop the heads of most sentients, primarily ponies and humans. Mist-foam is a tightly controlled material issued to relicted (a common phrase that means: 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. *LEGALLY OWNED by Pareidolia >Moon Shard: grants a [1d6+2] Prototype Project NOAH Unit: a small scale data processing library interface, one of several stolen early generation Project N.O.A.H. unit, much to Pareidolia's chagrin (and potential approval). Unlike Anon's previous technology swaps, the unit is also capable of accepting thermal, infrared, nightvision, starlight, and other perceptive technologies based on current Crystal Hololith designs. 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] Psychokinesis Pendant: a blank brass pendant designed before the Lunar-Solar War, allowing non-Psions the ability to use a stable form of psychokinesis with several limitations. *Grants a [1d6+6] Rainbow Dispersion Crystal: *Adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls when infused to a weapon *THREE times per Operation the user may call upon a Rime Lattice Crystal (Crystal-Forged, Contained, Passive, Stable): a 2" in diameter coldstone-like derivative, dark blue in color, that weighs approximately 8 ounces. 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. Since extracting traces of Rime from oneself is difficult without the proper tools, she was ble to produce this one in a little over a month. Upon attempting to deliver it to the Marquis, Naliyna was 3 to 4 days too late as he had already left. *Contains enough Rime 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, and the presence/effects of Anti in a 5M radius *If thrown at a target, [1d6+4] Untouched Lamb: an exquisite, iridescent white opal figurine of a Neighsian sheep.

Produced by one of the foremost crystalline technology Consortiums in the Empire, and the second most expensive. Powered by an older, well established power crystal from the Halberd & Shield Works Consortium. Requiring 20 years to produce each one, the Type 4-B was made in limited numbers until the mid-28,400's before being discontinued and replaced in the 29,300's with the much simpler, quick to shape Type 4-C. -Grants a [1d6+6] roll when in use FEATURES: *Variable focal lens down to 400x magnification, the technique a closely guarded Empire secret *Autocrystalline clarity adjustmarent, also a closely guarded Empire secret *Resonating sample distribution, CANNOT be used by non-Crystal ponies *Resonating sample destruction, CANNOT be used by non-Crystal ponies *Multiple adjustmarents for inspecting resonances and light wavelengths based on the same technologies used in Hololiths, CANNOT be used by non-Crystal ponies >4x Vendor Coupons: a large white coupon with a printed, constantly changing stamp of Discord holding a Discord face mask, which is holding up a sign with Discord.

While most of it's design copies the older SVT-40 and the SKS designs, the FAL has seen long lasting service by most countries across thousands of human worlds due to it's rugged components, heavy barrel, and tendency to fire even the shoddiest ammunition run through it with ease.

The outer shell has been tightly woven and sealed using a hard, yet flexible organic resin to prevent from being snagged on everything, from rolling around on twigs, up to diving into a briar patch. A full length neck sleeve and removable face hood with ear flaps keep Sunny warm, while a steel dock ring was added to keep her tail out of the way during missions, and has been painted with light gray, dark gray, and off white banding for additional camouflage qualities, retaining comfortable warmth even down to -20 degrees. >Estrus Flask, The: Sunny's first grand success in the field of Alchemy, this is a brightly glowing, thick gold solution that constantly produces orange, red, yellow, and white shafts of light, barely contained inside a unique, highly reflective bottle that she found... somewhere.

After enhancing both a Restoration Draft and a Healing Draught into permarenency, Sunny's impulsive (and correctly dosed) additions of numerous expensive reagents include: One of her feathers, one drop of her own blood, one of her own tears, an unknown amount of.. 'mare fluids' from Dancing Eyes, a carefully ground down heatstone ring from the same, and lastly a single petal from the flower of a strange, Druid predator-elk/equine like creature made of living vines were added. As a result of the unusual ingredients, this Warmth Flask carries a number of unusually beneficial capacities. *Sunny must add +2 to all Alchemy rolls when dosing or treating an unconscious ally or those otherwise incapable of drinking on their own. *When dosed, this elixir functions as a Restoration potion but provides total Alchemy result +1/2 more HP restored *The consumer or treated ally will regenerate +8HP/turn for the next 4 turns, also stopping Bleeding & Severe Bleeding upon consumption or contact *Has a maximum of 4 charges per day/night cycle, which automatically refill at Dusk *When consumed by a filly of age or mare that is not injured, the Aestus Flask will AUTOMAGICALLY induce Full Estrus >Small Saddlepack: a nondescript, average looking pair of comfortable, woven cotton satchels, the left containing 1x Canteen, 2x Small Heatstones, Journal, 2x Lantern Gems, and 2x Rolls of Rope ***** >HERD ITEMS: 1x Small Rainbow Heart *************************************************************************************************************************************** Zhun: ***** >PERSONAL ARMOR: -Heavy Riot Plate, unenchanted -Armor Value: provides 2DR -Armor Class: Heavy, suffers a -1 penalty to all Block/Evasion/Reaction Speed/Sprint rolls.

The cylinder was modified to utilize six Elemarentally-imbued, cylindrical power crystals in place of traditional ammunition, the rest of the weapon strengthened and imbued with numerous warding properties to prevent physical degradation under constant use. Much later after its creation, Kraut created a 6" titanium-steel alloy blade, serrating the edges and adding diamond shaped icicle lattices on each, then melded it under the barrel after adding enough weight to the grip to balance it as a usable close combat weapon. After adding the blade, Aiutante was requested to enchant it with a Glitter Fang. -Melee Weapon Class: Light -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte and +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: Elemarental; fires either an SUPPLIES: none ***** >COMMON ITEMS: none ***** >EXPLOSIVES: none ***** >MEDICAL ITEMS: none ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: -ADVANCED Tool Box: grants an extra roll to and adds +3 to all Engineering rolls at Untrained, +5 at Basic, +8 at Expert, and +10 at Master, but cannot be used for Blacksmithing. *The Advanced Tool Box can be used two turns in a row, but the Operator MUST skip their 3rd turn after use *Currently in the Clinic *SEVERELY DAMAGED -Corsair's Pendant: a small ruby circle engraved with a number of sharply curved wingblade designs, created by unicorn allies of the Lishanki clan to aid in their lightning fast raids, recovered from the Solar Armory in Canterlot. -Adds +1 to all Assault & Evasion rolls, but suffers a -3 penalty to all rolls when in combat with non-physical beings, specifically Spectral beings and Mind's Eyes among others *Permarenently enchanted to him -Lucky's Calling Coin: a small redsteel coin etched a single L in gold, cursive pegasi text across both sides.

Virtually unknown to modern times, the Selio shrub was once imported from the Vortex Plane, although they had great difficulty growing on Tallus. Now extinct in nearly all regions, but was greatly prized by unicorns for aiding their abilities in Casting. When consumed or infused to a unicorn or other caster, the traces of Otherworldly essence shroud the affected being from Tallus' more hostile entropic effects, allowing them to safely draw upon slightly more energies without suffering additional harm for doing so. Recovered from the Solar Armory in Canterlot. *Adds +1 to all Casting rolls, limited to unicorns or other natural casters *Permarenently enchanted to him -Perfected Diamond Annulgram: a 1" long, 1/2" wide, 1/4" thick, tiny diamond plate inscribed with miniature Old Germareeigh runes, also seems to be invisible when not being looked at directly.

When carried by, infused to, or physically inserted within a being capable of Casting, the Annulgram blunts and absorbs some of the residually harmful or degenerative arcane, Eldritch, and Otherworldly energies suffusing Tallus, at the cost of their ability to focus.

Cold hammering the remainder of Roust's shed armor into triangular, rectangular, and oval plates, copying the natural armor patterns of Changelings as a base to work from for both maximum movement potential and protection, he completely replicated Hollow's original bodysuit and heavy armor using the design. Afterwards, Lann integrated an immarensely tough, black and green dyed Otherworldly silk for the outer shell, giving it a hard, formidable appearance, and a softer, shock absorbent Moors spider silk for the inner, making it much more comfortable and breathable for long term extended wear. Afterwards, Lann fit Hollow with a pair of custom combat boots (the idea of which was quite amusing to her), the soles replaced with a spongy rubberized ones for extra sneakiness. *Can be easily modified for added use of, or protection from, psionic capabilities. *Touched by the Empress -Armor Value: provides 4DR. -Armor Class: Full Body Light -Mechanical Enhancemaret #1: adds +1 to all non-combat Stealth rolls -Vanguard's Helm: under construction by Krinza, once he figures out what size Hollow's head is. ***** >MELEE WEAPONRY: >Gravedigger's Shovel (Weapon Traits: 2/3 Enchantmaret Slots remaining, Magitek-Forged, Unique): a steel alloy copy of the traditional human styled entrenching tool, the edges melded with iron.

Removing the steel layering entirely and copying the weapon's features with a mythril cast, Krinza strengthened and infused the blade with diamondine, both to strengthen and enhance the weapon's capabilities. Was later inscribed with the entire history of the Hive, front and back, in flowing Changeling text. Queen Chrysalis arrived during Hearth's Warming Eve to present an extremely precious item, a Changeling Jewel, to enhance the weapon to it's absolute maximum for potential improvemarents. *Grandmaster reforged by Krinza *Touched by the Empress. -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls. -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/3 -Offensive Enchantmaret: grants a [1d6+4] RANGED WEAPONRY: -PP 19 Bizon (Weapon Traits: Personal): a late model folding stock submachine pistol, built off the AK-74 series of combat rifles by implemareting the same stamped sheet metal & riveting techniques, using the ubiquitous 9x19MM Parabellum round.

The AK-47 is a second generation combat rifle, the design partially based off the German Sturmgewehr 44 though featuring several advancements that would see it last well over 60 years beyond it's original production. Boasting a cheap, highly robust sheet metal stamped receiver, open cycling bolt, loose component tolerances for use in extreme desert and winter biomes, the exceptionally simple workings and standard, nearly impossible to jam sheet metal magazine ensured that even the most novice of soldiers could become proficient in it's use and maintenance rather easily. Though the AK-47 was ahead of its time, it suffered from two failings: somewhat poor accuracy at ranges above 600M due to it's engineered loose action, and the cheap, easily knocked out of alignment iron sights, it retains a solid place in most histories as the most mass produced firearm. -Base Modifier: +2 to all Combat Rifle rolls -Ammunition Class: Combat Rifle, 7.62x39MM -Magazine Capacity: 30/30 cartridges & comes with 2x magazines -Maximum Optimal Range: 400M with a -1 penalty per 200M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 1,000M -Attachmaret #1: Laser Sight: adds +1 to all Combat Rifle rolls only when in use & has a maximum effective range of 200M -Attachmaret #2: foregrip: adds +1 to all Combat Rifle rolls only when in use -Modification #1: External Suppressor: this weapon is 60% Suppressed, requiring a Perception roll of 7 or higher in order to identify the direction fired from -Model 29 Colt Python (Weapon Traits: Personal): an older, but still highly capable, 6-cartridge cylinder revolver in .357 Magnum, one of the first production line swinging cylinder models, adding to a reputation that would last well over 50 years. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: Magnum Small Arms, .357 Magnum -Cylinder Capacity: 6/6 cartridges & comes with 3x speed loaders -Maximum Optimal Range: 100M with a -1 penalty per 50M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 200M -Taser: (Weapon Traits: Personal) a third generation, less-than-lethal pistol shaped device that deploys a pair of electrified, pronged wires from a front-mounted cartridge, solely meant to incapacitate living targets at close range. In service with many police forces across thousands of worlds, this particular form of taser is usually sold only to law enforcement agencies, while the standard handheld taser is meant for civil use only. The cartridge itself contains an expensive, high voltage but low amperage battery, while the pronged barbs deliver from the front-mounted cartridge are little more than a pair of steel electrodes, mostly ensuring that the use of this less-than-lethal device is meant to disable rather than kill hostile targets. Although most departments and agencies deny such, when tasers such as these are used in an 'incorrect' fashion, they can be as lethal as a .357 Magnum in skilled hands. *Comes with 3 cartridges ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Binoculars, Compass, 4x Duct Tape, 4x Gas Mask Filters, Monocular NVG, Multitool, Playing Cards, Radio, Shovel ***** >SUPPLIES: 1x Dried Fruit, 2x Jerky, 4x MRE, 3x Water Bottle, 1x Whiskey, 1x Vodka ***** >MEDICAL ITEMS: 1x EMS Bag, 2x Morphine Syrettes *************************************************************************************************************************************** Pikeman (DECEASED): -Doughboy Helmet: provides 1DR to the head ***** >MELEE WEAPONRY: -Enchanted Combat Knife: adds +1 to all Melee rolls ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: none because he's fucking DEAD. ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Binoculars, Canteen, Cleaning Kit, Compass, Gas Mask, Glasses, Map, Mess Kit, 1x Pack of Cigarettes, 1x Rope, Roughsack, Shovel, L-Flashlight, Wrist Watch, Zippo Lighter. ***** >EXPLOSIVES: none ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: -Young Kraken (Eldritch): an incredibly young, and tasty, delicacy famed far and wide across the whole of Tallus, only to pegasi however.

Each strip of metal has been inscribed with a rune of stealth by the Master Forger, while Fuigah, the Shadow Wing Seamstress, secreted Phantom Rags between the cloth, leather, and metal layers to boost the stealth qualities, also improving freedom of movement greatly. -Armor Value: provides 3DR, full body -Armor Class: Light -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/3 -Utility Enchantmarent #1: adds +2 to all Block/Evasion/Reaction Speed/Sprint rolls -Utility Enchantmarent #2: adds +3 to all non-combat Stealth rolls ***** >MELEE WEAPONRY: >Twin Infested Runic Void-Fang Sai (Weapon Traits: Dual Weapon, Rune-Forged, Void Infested, Unique Legendary Permanent Artifact): a pair of long sai embedded and imbued with a peculiar infestation from the Void by the master smiths of the Vale. While visiting, Princess Luna was able to complete these weapons with the addition of a third offensive enchantmarent, making it one of a few rare weapons capable of accommodating such. -Base Modifier: adds +3 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 0/3 -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+1] RANGED WEAPONRY: -Sig Sauer P229 (Weapon Traits: Personal): a compact derivative of the P226, the double-action P229 makes use of a milled steel slide in place of cast in order to use the more powerful .357 Sig cartridge, longer lasting main springs, and double stacked magazines to reduce the number of combat reloads. Considerably more comfortable and easier to conceal than it's predecessors, the P229 sees a great amount of service in the hands of police, detectives, SO, SF, Coast Guard, and other specialized personnel. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: Magnum Small Arm, .357 SIG -Magazine Capacity: 12/12 cartridges & comes with 3x magazines -Maximum Optimal Range: 100M with a -1 penalty per 50M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 200M -Attachmarent #1: Laser Sight: adds +1 to all Small Arms rolls only when in use & has a maximum effective range of 200M -Modification #1: External Suppressor: this weapon is 60% Suppressed requiring a roll of 7 or higher on Perception to determine the direction fired from ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Binoculars, Compass, Grappling Hook & Rope, Night Vision Goggles, Remote Detonator, 1x Rope, Snake Cam, Swiss Army Knife, Sunglasses, Timer ***** >EXPLOSIVES: 1x Smoke, 2x Flashbangs, 3x M67 Frag, 5x C4 Bricks ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: -Advanced Combi-Goggles (Night Vision + Thermal): adds a +3 PERSONAL ARMOR: >Crystalline M.S.F. Shield (Armor Traits: Artifact, Custom, Crystal-Forged, Unique): a medium sized shield comprised from multiple thin sheets of layered titanium and diamond, by Krinza, further inscribed with Crystal runes of protection by Naliyna, then molecularly joined by both. -Armor Value: provides +2DR when worn on the back or when used to Bash or Shield Charge with -Armor Class: Light Shield -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/2 -Defensive Enchantmarent #1: grants an additional Block roll & adds +2 to all Block rolls -Sword and Board: can be used in tandem with Small Arms or other 1-handed weapons, but may not use with 2-Handed weapons >Spectre-Silk Bodysuit (Armor Traits: Artifact, Custom-Fit, Legendary, Lin-Woven... WHA-, Unique): a nearly weightless skinsuit designed for only Thrill to wear, masterfully woven together by Lin from a Planar spider's silk collected in the Moors by Thrill and Naliyna. It was reinforced and partially rewoven by Silver, much to Lin's surprise. Outfitted with numerous internal and external pockets & pouches, this bodysuit blends into nearly any environmarent with ease using the same organic color-dispersion mechanism used to mask the spider's entrance. *Touched by the Empress -Armor Value: provides 3DR to the entire body -Armor Class: Unarmored Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/3 -Defensive Enhancemarent #1: adds +2 to all in-combat Stealth rolls ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Enchanted Combat Knife -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Offensive Enchantmaremt: grants [1d6] M.S.F. Lightning Blade (Weapon Traits: Magitek-Forged, Unique): a 12" long, single bladed combat knife with a highly comfortable 6" silk-wrapped handle, and two sloping guards made from diamondine for additional protection. This custom fit blade was forged from purified kanpri with a charged, solid-state black platinum-crystalline core, etchings of the gryphon and unicorn runes for lightning present across several notches on the rear of the blade. Three Spirals and Krinza created this weapon to emit a powerful electric shock, as well as to be used as a knife, of course. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls -Enchantmarent Slots Remaining: 2/3 -Offensive Enchantmarent #1: grants a [1d6+2] RANGED WEAPONRY: -MG3 (Weapon Traits: Personal): a post-WW2 heavy machine gun designed to both replace the MG42 and introduce standardized ammunition in the form of the 7.62x51MM NATO cartridge, although most all MG3 variants share an 80% parts interchangeability with the M42. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Heavy Weapon rolls -Ammunition Class: HMG, 7.62x51MM NATO -Ammunition Belt Capacity: 100/100 cartridges & comes with 1x belt -Maximum Optimal Range: 500M with a -1 penalty to all Heavy Weapon rolls per 300M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 1,400M -Attachment #1: Bipod: adds +1 to Heavy Weapon rolls only when in use -Attachment #2: Flashlight: adds +1 to a SINGLE Perception rolls only when in use -M.S.F. Custom Browning Hi-Power (Weapon Traits: Personal): a single-action variant of the Colt 1911, originally designed in France in 1935. This particular Hi-Power was professionally manufactured by M.S.F.'s industrial team to utilize the much larger .45ACP cartridge rather than 7.65x21MM or 9x39MM. Enlarging the frame to accommodate a slightly bigger magazine, and making judicious use of steel alloys to keep its weight down to a nominal level, it can be considered more reliable than the original. -Base Modifier: adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls -Ammunition Class: Magnum Small Arms, .45 ACP -Magazine Capacity: 8/8 cartridges & comes with 3x magazines -Maximum Optimal Range: 50M with a -1 penalty to all Small Arms rolls per 50M beyond this range -Maximum Effective Range: 150M -M.S.F. Custom Railgun (Special Weapon Traits: Advanced 1970's Technology, Composite, Personal, Unique): a highly advanced, for the 1970's at least, one-man portable anti-tank weapon capable of delivering a precision engineered finned tungsten dart via an electromagnetic propulsion system. This weapon can be used five times before the internal power cell is expended, despite the internal magazine holding six darts, and requires several hours of recharging from a socket, though it is capable of being restored to its full potential. Has an integrated 4x10 semi-digital sight for accuracy at longer ranges. Not EXACTLY the same as the original. -Base Modifier: adds +4 to all Heavy Weapon rolls -Ammunition Class: Unique, Stabilized Finned Tungsten Darts -Ammunition Capacity: 5/6, comes with 12x darts -Maximum Effective Range: 2,000M -Attachment #1: Scope: adds +1 to Heavy Weapon rolls & the EXPLOSIVES: 2x Smoke ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Binoculars, Canteen, Compass, Headset, Gas Mask, Map, Multi-Tool ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: -Banded Swamp-Skitter Teeth: a collection of short, recurved gray teeth from a predatory fish native to the Moors, well known for its paralytic capabilities, both difficult to catch and hard to find. Contained in a thick, woven cotton pouch to protect from unwanted contact. *When infused to a weapon, allows a [1d3] PERSONAL ARMOR: >Katarn-class Commando Armor (Armor Traits: Advanced, Custom-Fit): a damaged, battered full body plated armor composed of duraplast, an advanced, complex, durable, and most importantly expensive space age alloy. A considerable upgrade from standard clone trooper armor, Commando armor was developed in response to the increasing threats from the Trade Federation. Each section of armor is custom fit for maximum freedom of movement, although the unarmored regions are only protected by a thermally balanced zero-gravity vacuum suit, offering little protection against most weaponry. Featuring a specialized backpack for rapid deployment of detonation packs, ammunition, and grenades, the entire armor is also capable of withstanding most acids, particularly the combat boots. Due to damage caused before his arrival, Thunder's munitions pack is incapable of storing it's full loadout, and requires a great deal of restoration to be brought back to full service. -Armor Value: provides 2DR -Armor Class: Medium -Mechanical Modification #1: reduces 1/2 of all damage from Acid >Katarn-class Commando Helmet (Armor Traits: Advanced, Custom-Fit): a damaged, battered full head covering helmet composed of duraplast, an advanced, complex, durable, and most importantly expensive post-galactic space age alloy. A uniquely shaped, though slightly heavy, helmet containing numerous dependable highly features, including an oxygen filtration system, a long range communications array, and a tactical Heads Up Display, also referred to as a HUD, that displays a small holographic representation of Thunder, his teammates, and their relative health within a 100M radius. Unfortunately due to its damaged state, the helmet's integrated night vision, optical sensor targeting & analysis array, and electrobinocular functions are unavailable, but are capable of being restored nonetheless. -Armor Value: provides 1DR to the entire head -Armor Class: Light Helmet -Mechanical Modification #1: reduces 1/2 of all damage from Acid ***** >CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY: >Katarn Armor Gauntlet Vibroblades: two 4" long blades with a triangular tip, capable of being ejected or retracted from a Clone Commaredo's gauntlets, powered by an internal sonic emitter that causes additional damage to organic or unarmored targets. A semi-complex sonic enhanced weapon, typically used as a cheap alternative to other, more traditional melee weapons of the time such as lightsabers, this vibroblade's small size and inclusion into Katarn-class armor allows it to be quite discreet, and is highly effective against most targets, excepting those with thick armor or hardened internal/external defenses. The damage caused has reduced its effectiveness by a large margin. -Base Modifier: adds +1 to all Assault/Parry/Riposte rolls ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: -DC-15s Side Arm Blaster Pistol: developed by BlasTech Industries for the Grand Army of the Republic, the DC-15s was a backup plasma pistol side arm for Clone troopers. Not as powerful as the standard DC-15 blaster, DC-15s utilized a unique self-regenerating power cell capable of storing enough energy for eight shots, recharging enough for one shot every second, though the user was forced to wait as it did so. As technology during the Clone Wars era wasn't as refined as it could be, nearly all energy weaponry had several flaws, the most notable being optimal and maximum ranges, and due to damage caused before his arrival, Thunder's personal DC-15s is no exception -Base Modifier: when firing at a target at a distance of 30M or less, adds +1 to all Energy Weapon rolls and ignores 1DR, but when firing at a target from a distance of 31-120M does not gain a bonus -Ammunition Class: Rechargeable Energy Cell -Maximum Effective Range: 120M -DC-17m Interchangeable Weapon System: developed by BlasTech Industries, the DC-17m was a lighter and more versatile version of the standard DC-15 blaster rifle, mareufactured to much higher tolerances in order to withstand nearly all weather conditions, although it does require periodic calibration for maximum efficiency. Unlike most blasters, this one was capable of being configured to use several attachments using a modular system, including a long range sniper rifle, an anti-armor grenade launcher, a non-lethal Pulsed Energy Projectile to stun or incapacitate organics, and a breaching grenade, though presumably the other attachments were destroyed before Thunder's arrival. -Base Modifier: when firing at a target at a distance of 45M or less, adds +1 to all Energy Weapon rolls and ignores 1DR, but when firing at a target from a distance of 46-450M does not gain a bonus -Ammunition Class: Energy Cell, comes with 12x Large Power Paks -Firing Rate: 12 shots per Large Power Pak -Maximum Effective Range: 450M ***** >COMMON ITEMS: GPS Unit, Multitool, 1x Recharging Cable, 12x Republic Power Paks, 1x Roll of Rope, Wireless Electronic Detonator ***** >EXPLOSIVES: 3x EMP Grenades, 4x Breaching Charges, 8x Detonation Packs ***** >UNIQUE ITEMS: -Galactic Republic Maintenance System: one of a vast number of dedicated weapon and armor maintenance kits issued by the Republic Army to their best on-ground or in-space engineering personnel.. or to the extremely tiny number of Clone Commandos that specialized in such an otherwise 'unworthy' occupation. This advanced engineering set, comprised solely of Mandalorian-based, pre-Empire tools (if they can even be called that), are designed to function on the most inhospitable planets, in the vacuum of space, or with a bit of fine tuning and some protective sealing, underwater. The contents take up half of the space in the Commando's rear-mounted armored pack unit, which also dispenses a Commando's relevant munitions, grenades, spare power paks or cells, magazines, clips, or whatever he would need at the time. Contents include: a single large holographic projection datapad with technical specifications on most all modern weaponry, armor, and electronics systems, including basic slicing programs to override and bypass the same; five vibroblades ranging from small enough to cut wires to large enough to stick something in the ribs for any number of delicate (or not so delicate) tasks; An oversized handheld soldering & welding torch/gun combination, with an internal power cell that uses insertable cartridges, or the raw or refined materials themselves, to make critical repairs and patches to armor, and even seal doors in a pinch; a hydrospanner, which is a powerful adjustable wrench, screwdriver, or nut driver all in one, that can even punch said screws, nuts, rods, or other small components through solid high grade steels via a small, integrated fusioncutter for dealing with complex adhesives or difficult to penetrate materials. Lastly, two rolls of duraplast embedded space tape; two tubes of duraplast glue for critical sealing operations; and a good ol' pre-modern dura-hammer. *Adds +1 to and grants an additional Engineering roll -Kaminoan Armorsmith Material Fabricator & Assembler: a Kaminoan fabrication machine designed to produce the specialized Mandalorian-styled Clone Trooper, Commando, and ARC armors, along with a host of other equipment including devices, weaponry, and even explosives. Employed specifically by the Armorsmiths in their trade, the Fabricator & Assembler relies on an indepth sensor matrix composed of numerous material scanners that grant the user the ability to magnetically scan cross-sections of the item or armor in production, bolstered by a series of external sensor rods that allow for precise electromagnetic particulate dispersal for layering materials at the atomic level. 12 robotic arms equipped with a variety of clamps, claws, and other tools are controlled by the main computer core, assisting in far less sophisticated, simple machining and milling tasks such as fabricating or restoring weaponry using any number of Republic, Kaminoan, Mandalorian, or user created schematics. A secondary set of 16 folding clamp arms contained within the fabricator's struts are used solely to hold a single suit of armor for reconstruction after severe battle damage, though it's unknown as to whether or not someone being IN the armor while reconstruction takes place is a good idea. Despite the loss of two sensor rods, one of the milling arms being jammed, and several damaged displays, it is still functional, though contains no blueprints or schematics as its computer core seems to have been wiped at some point, while the material racks are also empty, either from sabotage or use. *Currently occupies a space in the workshop on the central southern wall, and is limited to Thunder's use ONLY *Grants 4x [1d6+15] PERSONAL ARMOR: -Kevlar Vest: provides 1DR to the chest. ***** >MELEE WEAPONRY: ***** >RANGED WEAPONRY: -Paired Colt M1911's (Magnum Small Arm Weapon Traits: Personal): a modern upgrade of the venerable 1911 .45ACP, with tighter tolerances, slightly better handling, range, and ergonomics. Adds +2 to all Small Arms rolls, has an optimal range of 50M with a -1 penalty per 25M beyond this range, and a 150M maximum range. ***** >COMMON ITEMS: Batteries, Canteen, Cleaning Kit, Duct Tape, Fuel Canister, Gas Mask, L-Flashlight, Multi-tool, 2x Pack of Cigarettes, Pack of Menthols, Zippo Lighter ***************************************************************************************************************************************
