Scenario: Toy Soldiers (Final)
Ideas
- Emotional situations
- witnessing the harassment and even murder of humans
- being ordered to kill humans
- being ordered to destroy other anthroids
- risking your own death
- The heat imparts a +1 to DCHG?
- Imprints
- Soldier Imprints: Kill the Enemy 3, Obey your Captain 3
- If you want to fight your Imprint, you must roll a Control Check: current Control value + either Emotional Intelligence or Empathy vs the Imprint’s Level
- Emotional Intelligence if it purely has to do with yourself
- Empathy if it has to do with someone else
- Edward Mayfair - leader of the Dissolution Movement
- The Third Ring becomes involved—opposed to anthroids under any circumstances
- One Soul Evangelicals?
TODO
- [ ] When/how you were built - constructed from parts
- [ ] Infantry Imprint - no “Kill the Enemy”
- [ ] Instead: “Protect Your Team”
- [ ] Add “Survive”
- [ ] The heat imparts a +1 to DCHG
- [x] Rename Garrison to something else
- [ ] More info about the larger objective to invade Haskell
Outline
- Prologue: Randall
- A dim, messy room, screen showing “IMPRINT OVERWRITE IN PROGRESS…”
- Randall Ford, chain smoking, tapping nervously on his keyboard
- You hear the sound of a big truck pulling up. Randall panics (”Shit shit shit shit”) and starts trying to cancel the procedure, but it’s not canceling, and so he starts trying to disconnect the wires—but then a shower of sparks and a shocking jolt to your system
- All the screens die, Randall says “Oh, fuck.”
- PCs Awaken and take 2 emotion levels and 50% chance of a glitch
- Finally Calvin Colby enters
Part 1
You are standing in a small, low-ceilinged shack lit by dusty rays of afternoon sunlight. Dust motes dance and your chemical sensors detect wafts of cigarette smoke. In the center of the room, under a single hanging lightbulb, is a large, map-strewn table, and presiding over it is Calvin Colby, Warlord.
Colby is a tall man with a seemingly perpetual scowl. He rules his little dominion with an iron fist and a homemade cigarette clamped between his teeth.
Surrounding you are a handful of other humans, including one man sitting against the wall in the shadows.
