SHADOWRUN 5E CONTACT CHARACTER SHEET PORTABLE

You can use this spell on hostages to sequester them out of harm's way and on teammates you are smuggling through security. Once in goo form, a character is actually pretty hard to hurt and doesn't need to breathe. First, it can be used as a simple Save-or-Die to drop an enemy right out of the fight, but secondly it can also be used to store characters in relative safety. Almost anyone can hold out against torture if they think they are going to die anyway. Mind Probe - It's actually really hard to interogate people.

It's like having a portable door that also doubles as virtually unbreakable restraints.ĩ. That means that you can use it to open things and close them again.

Control Thoughts - The long term effects of this are pretty small, as it takes anyone just a few combat rounds to shake it off. Drain is intense, but seriously - holy crap.ħ. Trid Phantasm - Information is power, and Trid Phantasm allows you to create any information you want. It's hard for you to do anything while you're doing it, but who cares?Ħ. It's a one-stop nut-punch to essentially any magical threat. Mana Static - The answer to spirits and enemy magicians. The point is that you shouldn't leave the house without this spell.ĥ. Game mechanically it is used before getting to normal repairs while the Heal spell is used after First Aid - but whatever. Fix - cumulative and separate from technical repairs. Physical Mask - also doubles as an attack spell since you can mask yourself as someone who doesn't have a light machine gun.Ĥ. As per the example in the basic book it is capable of telling you not only where creatures are, but what they are and even what they are doing. Detect Life - bypasses all senses and goes straight for the Star Trek Tricorder bullshit. Heal - it operates separately and cumulatively with First Aid and is therefore not replaceable by anything. I guess that's it for my questions at the moment.įrankTrollman wrote:Someone asked me for a top ten list once:ġ. Now, assuming that this is a good approach to learning which sections of the game need to be learned first:Īre the default characters any good?

I'm thinking about a mage, the 3e guy is thinking about a troll 'tank guy', and the third guy wants to do something like the covert ops example (stealth, guns, etc).Īny other things that new people to the game should be aware of? I've noticed the Matrix replacement rules, but that's it. So we're all kinda looking at character creation as a way to become familiar with the rules. There's some other guys (including a potential alternate GM), but they're not around at the moment. One guy has played a lot of 3e shadowrun, and two of us haven't played shadowrun at all before. New to shadowrun, my friends and I are making some characters for the '4E 20th anniversary' edition.
