  1. More information about "Equipment: Castlevania Combat Cross"

    Equipment: Castlevania Combat Cross

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    This is the combat cross from the Castlevania series. I thought it was an interesting weapon, and at one time was going to include it in a High Fantasy Hero game as a non-standard weapon for a paladin type. The download includes an equipment card meant to be printed on 5.5" by 8.5" cardstock.

  2. More information about "Package Deal - World of Darkness - Garou"

    Package Deal - World of Darkness - Garou

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    As mentioned in this thread, I worked up some of the old World of Darkness stuff that I owned into Hero terms. My plan was to allow players of my High Fantasy Hero game the opportunity to play those "races" if they wanted to; plus I knew it would be an excellent opportunity to cut my teeth on 6E Hero, which is different enough I felt the need to practice. Werewolves are extremely interesting from a mechanical standpoint. The obvious power for them is Multiform, but after playing with the numbers for a while, it occurred to me that they're really only changing Characteristics around in the different forms. I tried it as a Multipower, and if fit a whole lot better.

    Package Deal - World of Darkness - Kindred

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    I worked up some of the old World of Darkness stuff that I owned into Hero terms. My plan was to allow players of my High Fantasy Hero game the opportunity to play those "races" if they wanted to; plus I knew it would be an excellent opportunity to cut my teeth on 6E Hero, which is different enough I felt the need to practice. Unfortunately, the thread I made to discuss this Package Deal did not survive the forum migration. I think this is a pretty elegant conversion, and welcome feedback.

    Package Deal - World of Darkness - Wraith

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    Since I had created other World of Darkness package deals, I thought I'd complete the grouping which meant converting the most difficult character type. Wraith: the Oblivion is the most complex character type to play. There are a number of foibles to the package, which I'll deal with in the forum post.
     
    If you prefer a Template version, that's also available.

    Darklands Alchemy

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    The 1992 computer game Darklands had an interesting alchemy system. This prefab replicates that system tor Fantasy Hero, using the Alternate Enchanted Item Creation Rules from page 320 of the Fantasy Hero 6E book.
     
    The package contains the prefab file, an alchemy document (giving real point costs, Alchemy Skill roll modifications, and Long Term END costs for all of the formulas) and a potions document (giving the effects of each potion, price and weight). In a game adhering closely to Darklands, only one or two potions should be for sale in any given city.

    Here is a writeup for Brian "Coffin" Kirk and his ever-present sidekick, Tank. "Coffin" Kirk (so-named for his dead-pan stare) appeared in seven stories in Flying Aces magazine (October 1937 to June 1941). Written by Arch Whitehouse, the "Coffin" Kirk stories detail his battles against the evil Circle of Death in the skies over various parts of the world.

    Vehicular Combat

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    On the Star Hero boards, crayadder asked about vehicular combat, and I took the opportunity to create a vehicle-based martial art -- it's as if the pilot/driver is the martial artist, and the vehicle is the weapon. It's not appropriate for all genres and all playstyles, but for certain vehicle-heavy games it might do the trick.
     
    For a pdf of the martial art in standard Hero format, click this Dropbox link.

    Warhammer 40K Hero - Space Marine

    By AlHazred in Characters

    In the grimdark future of the Warhammer 40K universe space marines battle the enemies of Mankind, usually xenos or the minions of the Ruinous Powers, in a never-ending religious crusade based on their faith in the Emperor of Mankind. Divided into Chapters, these genetically-engineered supermen develop from the gene-seed of their Chapter Primarchs. Each space marine is the epitome of the human warrior, but this package deal forms the basis of their abilities. It is derived from the description of General Space Marine abilities in the Deathwatch RPG, as well as close reading of the Codex. It is not meant to be a full space marine -- even so, it clocks in at 150 points.
     
    The package contains a character file, a template file for the character (for starting a new space marine), a package deal (for applying to an existing character), and a document with the package deal in the old format.

    Warhammer 40K Hero - Space Marine Power Armour (Terminator)

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    In the grimdark future of the Warhammer 40K universe space marines wear incredibly advanced power armour (the developers are British, so I have retained their proper spelling). The heaviest suits of power armor are the Tactical Dreadnought suits, essentially mounting vehicle weaponry on a man-portable platform. They also bear the Crux Terminatus, a powerful relic and award which wards the wearer from harm.
     
    The Deathwatch rulebook contains additional options which have been converted as well.
     
    This package contains the prefab, and an armor card.

    Warhammer 40K Hero - Space Marine Power Armour (Mark VII)

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    In the grimdark future of the Warhammer 40K universe space marines wear incredibly advanced power armour (the developers are British, so I have retained their proper spelling). These are precious, specially-fitted devices that are practically an extension of the marine himself -- the Black Carapace organ, when implanted, provides a neural link with the "machine spirit" of the armour, making it an extension of the wearer.

    Traveller Hero - TL10-TL15 Battle Dress

    By AlHazred in Prefabs

    The ultimate expression of personal defense in the Third Imperium setting of the Traveller Hero game is battle dress -- powered armor suits. This file describes several suits at different Tech Levels, and for varying functions, from the rudimentary (but still more advanced than the modern day) TL10 Battlesuit to the TL15 Imperial Marine Assault Battle Dress. In addition, there are a suite of options for all of the suits.
     
    I also included individual suit cards so that you can track the power left for each suit. The suit cards are 5.5" x 8.5" to print two-to-a-page on US letter paper.

    Talislanta Hero - Dryad Bush

    By AlHazred in Characters

    This graceful variety of flowering shrub is found primarily in Astar of the Seven Kingdoms. Late at night, dryad bushes undergo an uncanny metamorphosis, becoming beautiful green forest nymphs. The transformation lasts only until dawn, after which the nymphs return to plant-form. The esteemed botanomancer, Viridian, once professed to have been married to a forest nymph, whom he saw only between the hours of sunset and sunrise.
     
    The pdf has both the bush and nymph forms.

  18. Talislanta Hero - Equs, Snowmane

    By AlHazred in Characters

    Equs are a hybrid of mammal and reptile prized as steeds throughout the continent. They are quite intelligent, and have their own language, called equan. Some few are even able to speak the languages of humanoids, though a natural tendency toward secrecy forbids most equs from boasting of this ability. In the wild, they travel in herds of up to about sixty individuals.
     
    There are four sub-species of equs: the common and reliable graymane; the swifter but less durable silvermane; snowmanes, built to endure frigid climes and sure-footed on ice or snow; and coal-black darkmanes, aggressive and spiteful creatures who often attack other equs on sight.

    Talislanta Hero - Bird Of Prey, Nighthawk

    By AlHazred in Characters

    Nighthawks are a species of nocturnal raptor native to the wooded hills of Yrmania. Swiftest of Talislantan birds, these ebony predators hunt only during the late evening hours. They have exceptional night vision and can spot even the slightest movement on the ground from altitudes of over one thousand feet. Their shining feathers are as hard as flaked obsidian, their knife-edged wings being capable of slicing through even the toughest hide (the bird's claws and beak are used primarily to grasp and tear prey after it has been slain). Highly prized as hunting birds, nighthawks are sometimes tamed and kept as companions by Jaka traders and manhunters. The birds can be taught to hunt by day as well, provided they are given sufficient rest.
