Uses

Some devices have a finite amount of uses per encounter, and will indicate a number. Some Stunts will indicate that more or fewer uses are consumed and under what circumstances, but by default each time a Stunt is played, a use is consumed.

Weapons usually refer to this concept as ammunition. Each bullet, grenade, arrow, or shot equals on use. Weapons that allow attacks on multiple targets consume a shot of ammunition for each target.

Characters can refill their allotment of uses for their devices in Story Mode or between Acts if given the opportunity, and at the GM's discretion.

Devices

See the Device Justification for details.

Edit

Armor

Armor is worn on the body, and cannot be disarmed. Armor devices are usually, but not always, more durable than most devices due to their typically rugged nature. Armor is considered to be Integrated Devices.

Armor Stunts can be worn individually, and they can also be combined with other Gear Stunts to assemble a suit of "power armor" For instance, the Powered Assist Stunt plus Armored Costume Stunt, Enviro Suit Stunt, HUD Stunt, and Raygun Stunt could collectively be treated as a suit of "power armor". Mixing and matching different Gear Stunts to modularly "assemble" a "power armor" suit allows for a large array of variations.

Edit

Armored Costume

Open, Gear, Passive, Device

Prereq: Strength 3+

This card is always considered to be in play.

You wear an armored outfit that protects you from harm.

The Armored Costume is a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage, but it benefits from it's own durability and has (12 + SR) Soak vs. attacks that target it directly. An Armored Costume cannot be disarmed if you are wearing it.

You have +1 Soak.

Gear: You have + SR Soak. I.e. if you have SR 3, you have +3 Soak.

Edit

Force Field Generator

Gear, Passive, Device

None

Prereq: Technology trained

This card is always considered to be in play unless deliberately left off.

You have a device that generates some kind of protective non-matter based field that helps shield you from harm. The protective field is visible.

The Force Field Generator is a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage, but it benefits from it's own protection; it has 2 DEF and (9 + SR) Soak vs attacks that target it directly .

SR1: You have +1 DEF.

SR2: You have +2 DEF

SR3: You have +2 DEF, +1 Soak, +1 Psyche

SR4: You have +2 DEF, +2 Soak, +2 Psyche

SR5: You have +2 DEF, +2 Soak, +2 Psyche, and you may add

to any check made to avoid a malign condition.

Edit

Powered Assist

Gear, Passive, Device

Prereq: Technology trained

This card is always considered to be in play unless deliberately taken off out of Combat mode.

You have an mechanized exo-skeleton, a suit of "power armor", a robotic carapace, or some other technological device that grants you enhanced physical capabilities.

The Powered Assist is a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage, but it is particularly sturdy and has (10 + SR) Soak and (SR x 2) Wounds vs attacks that target it directly.

You may allocate SR number of +1 bonuses to Strength, Agility, or Soak which raises both rating and maxima while you wear the Powered Assist and it is in working order. You must permanently allocate each bonus when you raise the Stunt Rating of this Stunt, and they cannot be changed thereafter. I.e. if you have SR 3 you could have +1 Strength, +1 Agility, +1 Soak, or +2 Agility +1 Strength, or +3 Agility, or any other combination of 3 +1 bonuses split in any way between Strength, Agility, or Soak.

Edit

Enviro Suit

Open, Gear, Passive, Device

Prereq: Strength 3+

This card is always considered to be in play.

You have a suit or force field that protects you from environmental harm. It might be incorporated into an armored costume or worn on its own.

An Enviro Suit is a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage, but it benefits from some added durability and has (9 + SR) Soak.

While the suit is intact you gain the following benefits. You are resistant to the effects of exposure to heat, cold, and radiation. You are immune to poison, disease, and impure air. You remove SR # of tokens from the Ignited, Slowed, and Sickened conditions if they are applied to you.

Gear: Your Enviro Suit has +SR # of Wounds vs attacks that target it directly.

Edit

Pressurized Suit

Open, Gear, Passive, Device

Prereq: Strength 3+, Enviro Suit Stunt

This card is always considered to be in play.

You have a suit or force field that protects you from environmental harm, including vacuum exposure and the depths of the ocean. It might be incorporated into an armored costume or worn on its own.

A Pressurized Suit is an upgraded Enviro Suit. The rating of Pressurized Suit cannot exceed the rating of Enviro Suit.

While the suit is intact you gain the normal benefits of an Enviro Suit, plus you are protected from vacuum exposure and from the pressures of deep ocean, and have a supply of breathable air and astronaut food sufficient to allow you to survive for (SR) days.

Gear: Your Pressurized Suit has +SR # of Wounds vs attacks that target it directly.

Edit

Gadgets

Edit

Toolkit

Gear, Passive, Device

None

Prereq: Repair trained

You have various tools, perhaps even built in ones, that make it easier to work on and repair things.

Toolkits are a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage.

You gain SR # of

to all Repair checks. Furthermore, repair tasks take less time to complete. Though circumstances in play and the needs of the plot may dictate otherwise, determining the normal amount of time necessary to conduct a repair then dividing that amount by SR is a good rule of thumb. Thus a repair that should take 9 minutes would take someone with Toolkit (3) about 3 minutes.

If you have Technology trained, you gain

on checks related to repairing technology.

If you have Engineering trained, you gain

on checks related to building new things.

Edit

Lockpicks

Open, Gear, Passive

None

Prereq: Skulduggery trained

You have various lockpicks and specialized equipment that makes it easier to open locks.

Lockpicks are a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage.

You gain SR # of

to all Skulduggery checks related to locks. Furthermore, lockpicking tasks take less time to complete. Though circumstances in play and the needs of the plot may dictate otherwise, determining the normal amount of time necessary to pick a lock and then dividing that amount by SR is a good rule of thumb. Thus a lock that should take 1 minute to pick would take someone with Lockpicks (3) about 20 seconds.

Gear: Your Skulduggery dice pool gains

when you are able to use your Lockpicks to pick locks.

Edit

Interfacer

Gear, Passive, Device

Prereq: Technology trained

This card is always considered to be in play.

You have one or more devices or perhaps even a built in gizmo that makes it easier to interface with computers and similar technology.

Interfacers are a device and thus can be targeted directly and broken via damage.

You gain SR # of

to all checks made to interface with or use computerized devices, and the time frame for doing so is reduced significantly. Though circumstances in play and the needs of the plot may dictate otherwise, determining the normal amount of time necessary to do a computerized task and then dividing that amount by (SR+1) is a good rule of thumb. Thus a task that should take 4 minutes would take someone with Interfacer (3) about 1 minute.

Gear, Device

Technology trained

Technology (Int) vs Observation (Int)

If an opponent is within Medium range you may play this card. If you are engaged with an opponent add .

1: You successfully plant a listening bug without it or you being noticed. You may later listen in on and record conversations held around the bug until it is discovered, destroyed, or it runs out of power. The range at which you can receive the bug's transmissions are based on Stunt Rating. You can have a number of bugs active at once equal to the number of times you have trained the Technology skill. The listening bug and the receiver itself are devices and can be broken.
