yamamura Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 A player wants a cybernetic enhancements that allows him to put off sleep. I was thinking there was a HERO books somewhere that had something like it but I don't seem to be able to find it. This is for my campaign in 2110. I unfortunately don't know enough about anti-sleep drugs so I need some one to either point me where to find it in HERO or a write up. Thanks.

Escafarc Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Re: How to build Anti-Sleep Stims with side effects I think it might be in Alien Wars or Terrian Empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maccabe Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Re: How to build Anti-Sleep Stims with side effects Seems like Life Support, reduced sleep or does not need to sleep with the limitation Side Effect and limited uses that take longer to recover then just one day.

Alien Wars is dead on. Thanks Escafarc. I can't rep you yet (must spread around yadda yadda), so take a cookie out of petty cash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casualplayer Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Re: How to build Anti-Sleep Stims with side effects What's the Side Effect? I would have it be a gradual cumulative Transform to someone with a Psych Comp: Irritable eventually becoming a full Enraged or Berserk.

prestidigitator Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Re: How to build Anti-Sleep Stims with side effects The Time Limit Advantage (actually Limitation in this case) at the 6 hours (-1/2) or 1 day+ (-1/4) level might work well here, too. Or Continuing Charges, though those will be -0 for a Persistant power like Life Support unless the GM lends a helping hand. Other appropriate side effects might be penalties to Int and Ego rolls (or Drains of those Characteristics) due to lack of focus and shortened attention. The latter could even result in one's Psychological Limitations becoming more difficult to overcome, which would be an interesting kind of amplification effect (and maybe even feedback if one of the Psychological Complications is addiction to the drugs...).
