DOT raiders

Settlements of people who live in the DOT. They raid the surface for food and supplies. Many also free modern day slaves and carry out prison breaks.

Many DOT raiders mark themselves with crack shaped tattoos on their foreheads. These are made with Iron oxide inks.

TARTARUS RAIDER

3 HP | 2D6 appear | 1 ARMOR | TAC:-1 | FRC:+1 | RFX:+1 | CRE:0

  • M1911 pistol (1D6 DAMAGE)
  • Obsidian blade (1D6 DAMAGE)
  • Thunderstick, explosive throwing spear (1D6 + 2 DAMAGE, ANTI-MATERIAL, 1 use)
  • Scrap armor (1 ARMOR)
  • Scrap armored school bus (12 HP, 2 ARMOR)

HIT-AND-RUN: Raider war cries act as a harbinger of destruction. After a rapid pillage they scarper off leaving any wounded behind. They never abduct living things. The literal definition of scrappy, they like to bicker between themselves over loot. TARTARUS RAIDERS are good drivers and only use their thundersticks on pursuing vehicles, not wanting to destroy any possible loot.

ANTI-MATERIAL weapon tag: Deals double DAMAGE to vehicles and structures; cumbersome to carry around. (F:UE)

TARTARUS MUTANT

5 HP | TAC:-1 | FRC:+1 | RFX:+1 | CRE:+1

  • MAS-36 bolt-action rifle (1D6+1 DAMAGE)
  • Tattered clothing barely covering their portfolio of scars
  • Faint blue/green glow from their veins
  • No two mutants are the same, the below mutations are left vague for the referee’s and/or players’ imagination to fill

ADAPTED: These were once normal humans who lived in the settlements of the DOT. They have survived longer than most and so have been mutated from the pervasive chemicals and radiation. When one appears, roll 2D6 to determine which of the two following mutations they have (reroll duplicates).

  1. Exoskeleton (2 ARMOR)
  2. Lethal arms (1D6 + 1 DAMAGE)
  3. Powerful strides and jumps
  4. Enhanced sense
  5. Extra appendage
  6. TARTARUS MUTANT gets a total of 3 of the other options

MELTDOWN (BOSS MOVE): As a last resort and with a well choreographed lead up the TARTARUS MUTANT can cause itself to explode. It dies whilst dealing 2D6 DAMAGE to everything within 20 feet.

TARTARUS FIRE WARRIOR

6 HP | 1 ARMOR | TAC:+1 | FRC:+1 | RFX:0 | CRE:0

  • Flame thrower (1D6 + 1 DAMAGE, INCENDIARY)
  • Napalm grenade (1D6 + 2 DAMAGE, 1 use)
  • Pyrogen fire suppression grenade. Can douse fire in a medium enclosed area such as a skip or caravan (1 use)
  • Reinforced silver fire suit (1 ARMOR)
  • Bottled fire spirit, 1 DAMAGE to user, heals target +1D6 HP (1 use)
  • Inhibited movement and vision

BURNT: These warriors have been wronged and fight for justice. They have little self preservation thinking their suits will prevent any dangerous burns. They are fiercely defensive of their allies and will attract aggro. Whilst a TARTARUS FIRE WARRIOR is alive and in combat, attacks to non TARTARUS FIRE WARRIORS have -1 DAMAGE.

INCENDIARY weapon tag: When damage is dealt, this weapon also deals 2 DAMAGE to anything within firespreading range. Deals double DAMAGE to plants.(F:UE)

TARTARUS MAGNETIC SLINGER

4 HP | TAC:+2 | FRC:0 | RFX:0 | CRE:0

  • Long range gauss rifle, requires a bright and loud charge up time (1D6+2 DAMAGE, ARMOR PIERCING)
  • Tripwire grenade (1D6 + 1 DAMAGE, 1 use)
  • Smoke grenade (1 use)
  • Flare gun (3 uses)
  • Ghillie suit
  • Sluggish and cramped legs

VOLCANIC: Like a volcano this slinger is patient and difficult to detect whilst dormant. However their weapon provides an obvious signal to their target a few seconds before they can fire. Will use their flare gun to call for backup or attract prey.

ARMOR-PIERCING weapon tag: Attacks with this weapon ignore ARMOR bonuses granted by physical means. (F:UE)

SCRAPPER

3 HP | 1 ARMOR | TAC:+2 | FRC:+1 | RFX:-1 | CRE:+1

  • Oversized wrench (1D6 DAMAGE, PERCUSSIVE-MAINTENANCE)
  • Scrap cannon (1D6 DAMAGE)
  • Pipe bomb (1D6+2 DAMAGE, one use)
  • Scrap armor (1 ARMOR)
  • Rusted toolbox full of immaculately tended tools

HANDY: One’s trash is another’s treasure. The SCRAPPER scraps, builds, and maintains the devices used by the DOT raiders. To become a SCRAPPER one must replace their own arm with their own custom bionic arm. When one appears, roll 2D6 to determine which of the two following bionic arm features they have (reroll duplicates).

  1. Grapple hand
  2. Med injector (+1D6 HP, one use)
  3. Buckler (1 ARMOR against melee attacks)
  4. Stone containing an aspect of Tartarus able to guide them to treasure
  5. Rocket fist (1D6+2 DAMAGE, arm is unusable till replacement hand attached)
  6. SCRAPPER gets a total of 3 of the other options

PERCUSSIVE-MAINTENANCE weapon tag: Once per mission this weapon can be used to fix a malfunctioning device. This includes, but is not limited to, jammed or overheated weapons, stuck elevators, stalled vehicles, and a fuzzy television.
