Universal Monsters: Frankenstein/Flesh Golem for Cepheus Quantum & Cepheus Sorcery

 Sorry for disappearing but work has been C-R-A-Z-Y!

Flesh Golem for Cepheus Quantum

"A flesh golem is a ghoulish collection of stolen humanoid body parts, stitched together into a single composite form often involving necromancy as much as black science. Typically, it looms above the living and its innards stuffed full of talismans, galvanics, & profane scripts in the language of the Dead. 

A flesh golem cannot speak, although it can emit a hoarse roar of sorts. It walks and moves with a stiff-jointed gait, as if not in complete control of its body."

20/30, Move 5m/round, Armor 4, Fist (melee 3D, crushing). 

Combat-2, Physical-4. A flesh golem takes double damage from fire and it has Disadvantage on Physical throws to evade an attack.

Known Space: Kzin for Cepheus Quantum

 

Kzin for Cepheus Quantum 
Kzinti were bipedal digitigrade felines with orange fur, yellow eyes, pronounced fangs, ears resembling bat wings, four-fingered hands, and long tails. Males stood over two meters tall, with broad hunching shoulders and comparatively slender waists and limbs. Their internal anatomy included ribs with vertical bracing and multiple hearts. They breathed atmosphere similar to that of Humans. As carnivores, they were acutely averse to the consumption of plants. Their physical attributes made them powerful combatants.

They gain an unarmed damage of 2D and +1D Endurance.

Note: Per the Known Space stories most female Kzin were bred for childbearing and a low intelligence. I'm ignoring that for the purposes of simply enjoying the game.

Foelio for Cepheus Quantum, Cepheus Sorcery, & Barbaric! Now Available

Work has been crazy in a good way (I purchased a sweet Amazing Spider-Man collection last week starting at #1) which means that this adaptation for Foelio actually came out on 4/25 but I'm just bringing it up now on the blog.

I really dig the system that Stellagrama and it's crew have created using the Traveller/Cepheus System and am using it to run a game online.

The Foelio adapts 27 creatures to use as antagonists against your players and is on sale now.

PS - If anyone out there wants to do a review I'll gladly provide a PDF for free :)

Monstrous Monday: Kauldron Hatemonger for Cepheus Sorcery & Barbaric!

The Kauldron is a secret society that operates within the Colony of Avignon in the Summerlands whose members claims they are changelings, elves that have replaced human children, while still infants. The group was founded 35 years ago by Milhaus Qent the heir to the Qent lumber company whose parents died while he was only seven. Milhaus believed that his true parents were Fienna Willobend and Virgyl Shattermoon and he claimed they visited him in his dreams. He claims that they guided him in forming the first Kauldron cell in Decatur and taught him sorcery. Three years ago a special task force created by Comptor Antoin Montain raided Qent's compound near Davreau and claims to have killed him and the leaders of the movement, however, Kauldron moots can still be found throughout the Colony.
