Grenadoes

Red Iron Grenado

Rank 8 Alchemy
This grenado contains an alchemical incendiary device. It is usually thrown at a hex within range (15 hexes). The hex has no Defence, but the thrower's SC is reduced by 3 per hex beyond the first. Any Strike Check greater than 70 + MD means that the thrower dropped the grenado at their feet, or, if the roll is 99 or 100, has gone off prematurely.
If the Strike Check result is high enough to indicate a miss but not high enough for a catastrophe, then a scatter D10 is rolled.
On a 1, it was thrown 1D10 feet beyond the target hex.
On a 2, it was hrown 1D10 feet beyond and to the right of the target hex.
On a 3, it was thrown 1D10 feet to the right of the target hex.
On a 4, it was thrown 1D10 feet short and to the right of the target hex.
On a 5, it was thrown 1D10 feet short of the target hex.
On a 6, it was thrown 1D10 feet short and to the left of the target hex.
On a 7, it was thrown 1D10 feet to the left of the target hex.
On an 8, it was thrown 1D10 feet beyond and to the left of the target hex.
On a 9, it was thown 2D10 feet beyond the the target hex.
On a 0, it was thrown 1D10 <bold>hexes</bold> short of the target hex.
On detonation, the grenado inflicts 3 Specific Grievous Injuries on anyone up to 3 hexes away. Targets who are between 4 and 6 hexes away suffer 2 Specific Grievous Injuries, while those between 7 and 9 only suffer one. The grenado inflicts A, B or C Class injuries, so all results are applied.
Targets are allowed to Break 100 + 2 x AG + Rank in Sense Danger to avoid each wound.

If a grenado impacts the ground, then it will convert it to a boggy swamp with a diameter of 10 hexes. Movement across the swampy area is by turns slippery (requiring a 2 x AG check for each hex passed through) or fall prone and grasping (requiring a PS check to escape if prone).

Ring of Green Silences

This bare jade ring must be worn on the ring finger of the left hand, and encumbers as if it weighed 2 oz.
The ring allows the bearer to gradually match the colours of their surroundings. This will allow them to:

  • use their Ranger Stealth in places other than a natural environment
  • increase the Bonus from the Adventuring Skill: Stealth from 5 per Rank to 7 per Rank
  • allow them to make an attempt to use Stealth in plain sight:
The bearer halves their Stealth Base Chance and informs the DM who subtracts the highest PC of any observer and then rolls percentiles. If the number is less than or equal to the modified Stealth Chance, the bearer has managed to sneak past without being seen or heard. Witchsight, Wizardsight or Enhanced Vision will not reveal the bearer's presence, either. However, any attempt to deliver an attack, cast a spell, dance naked on a table in front of them or move faster than half (rounding down) the bearer's TMR will break Stealth. Once revealed, another attempt to use Stealth in plain sight is not possible unless the bearer has broken line of sight for long enough to perform a Pass Action.

Bonuses from Spy, Thief or Assassin do not apply.

Once this is done, they may advance their Rank in the Military Scientist Skill by 1 to a maximum of 15. This will take a number of weeks equal to the Rank they are going to, however, they only need expend 90% of the Experience required.

Abilities

Shape of the Hellborn Unicorn

Aryan may assume this form, which appears as a unicorn the colour of coal dust. It is a representative form of black, diabolical rage. The surface of the mind is a violent cataract of hatred and fury. Any attempt to read its mind or emotional state (Telepathy, Mind Speech, Empathy, ESP or similar effects) will invoke a Break 100 + 2 x WP Check (+ Rank in Mind Shield, Mind Cloak or similar) or be driven into a berserk fury and attack the nearest entity for D10 Pulses or until Rallied.

Movement Rates
Running: 800
PS: 60 MD: 20 AG: 19 MA: Aryan's EN: 30 FT: Aryan's
WP: Aryan's PC: Aryan's PB: Aryan's TMR: 16 NA: Hide absorbs 5 DP
Weapons
Hellborn Unicorns may either gore with their horn, bite or kick into their rear hex. Unicorns will willingly enter Close Combat and Trample.
Horn: BC 60%, [1 rollup D + 7], Melee, Rank 0, max Rank 10 (as Rapier, but treat as Lance when Charging).
Bite: BC 50%, [D + 2], Melee & Close, Rank 0, max Rank 6 (as Unarmed Combat).
Kick: BC 45%, [D + 7], Melee Rear, Rank 0, max Rank 8 (as Unarmed Combat).
Trample: BC 45%, [D + 8], Close, Rank 0.

Any blow directly to EN is automatically infected, and, in any case, may not be Healed except by the arts of a Healer who can Cure EN or better. The attacks must be Ranked as separate Weapon Skills, although Unarmed Combat as a unicorn can be applied to both Bite and Kick. Rank is achieved mystically, involving meditation and reflection, and does not require a trainer or transformation. Time, co-training constraints and Experience cost remain the same, however.
The form can enter a Berserk state for 1 minute at will, which will increase its PS to 160. Base damage from the Horn when charging in this state is increased (to 3 rollup D10 + 21). In addition, a field of blackest Ire surrounds the beast and absorbs the first 12 points of incoming Damage per Pulse, resetting at the beginning of the next Pulse.
Transforming into the Black Unicorn costs 1 WP and a Pass Action. Going Berserk requires 3 WP and a Free Act. Delivering a Charge Attack while Berserk costs 5 WP and at least 5 hexes of movement. If Aryan's WP is reduced to 0 or less, he returns to human form in a coma, and cannot be Roused until his WP becomes positive.
Lost WP may be recovered at a rate of 2 every 3 days of rest. Once a day, Hypnotism may cure (D-5) (+ 1 / 3 or fraction Ranks) lost WP.
Itemry worn by Aryan does not carry across to the unicorn form. Similarly, Aryan does not normally benefit from itemry on the unicorn if it is caparisoned. It is considered a heavy warhorse in combat but travels as if it were a light courser.

Word of Binding

Aryan has taken a Word of Binding to support House Tintagel in a time of trouble, which he has executed.

If he keeps his Word until Winter 816, then a lock of his hair above his right ear will turn blue. His aura will change to reflect this change, and a DA question about the nature of the lock will reveal that he is an Oathkeeper. In addition, his FT will increase by 1 and he gains 1500 Experience (unmodified by race). If he breaks a Word of Binding, then his forehead will be marked with a F which is not removable. A DA question about the nature of the mark will reveal he is an Oathbreaker. He will also lose the blue lock of hair and the extra FT. He gets to keep the extra Experience, however.
