COMMON RACES

DWARF

Western Immoren has been the home of both men and dwarves since before written history, when only word of mouth and song recorded their deeds. Dwarves or Rhulic-Folk in their own tongue are short (average around 4 feet tall) but heavy set (average around 150 lbs.) humanoids with males wearing thick beards from a very young age. They settled in the northern mountains and assembled into a single nation long before mankind has risen from barbarity.

ELF, IOSAN

Nearly all of the elves of western Immoren hail from Ios. They are doomed people or so it is believed.

Elves are tall and thin compared to humans, whom find these fey-folk as attractive and alluring.

Starting Languages: one-half Smarts die (one must be Ios/Elf)

ELF, NYSS

The elusive elves called the Nyss are even more mysterious then their distant Iosan kin. Very little is known of the ‘winter elves’ as they kept to their secrets viciously and see non-Nyss as invaders at best and as non-sentient and unworthy of even life at worst.

Small [-1] as Flaw, plus +1 Stealth and -1 Intimidate

Starting Languages: one-half Smarts (one must be Molgur/Gob)

HUMAN

The Iron Kingdoms are the lands of humanity, first and foremost. They are by far the most numerous race in the region, and it is their struggles, wars, and history which have shaped this land. The humans of the Iron Kingdoms are a varied and hardy cross selection of cultures, all arising from ancient tribes of warlike peoples who have lived, loved, fought and died in the region since before recorded history. The bulk of their history is filled with endless strife and battle, and the relative calm of the last few centuries is unusual

Starting Languages: one-half Smarts die (one must be a Native language)

TROLLKIN

Savage trolls once roamed across the forests and plains of Western Immoren, but as time passed they assembled into tribes, which branched into clan families, and soon enough trolls came in a variety of shapes, sizes and eating habits. The latter is perhaps the greatest rationale that sets trollkins apart from other trolls, allowing the other races of Western Immoren to experience their personalities firsthand without fear of becoming their next meal.

Clumsy [-3] Trollkin are not known for their grace and they suffer a -2 to Agility trait checks.

Heritage [2] most Trollkin have Arcane Resistance as a racial trait, but there are a few rare members of the race who start with one Arcane Background (and most are also albinos and are either Fell Callers or Sorcerers). Player’s choice.

SPELL NOTES

*- New Spell. See Magic.

† - This power requires you to pick an Elemental Trapping. See Magic. Or use the trapping listed under that power (like some powers listed under specific arcane backgrounds).

‡ - See Magic for update on this spell as it has changed.

! - For +1 Power Points the caster deals Holy or Daylight effects.

÷ -These powers have the limitation - Aspect automatically.

∞ -These powers have the limitation – Range (Self) automatically.

Familiar [Novice, Arcane Background (Arcane), Spell casting skill must be d10+)]: the character has acquired an animal familiar. The creature gained is a dove, raven, cat, frog, small dog, nonpoisonous snake, etc. The mage and the familiar acquire the Loyal Hindrance with regard to each other. The familiar is not a slave, however, and can refuse to follow orders, especially ones which will cause it harm. Unless ordered otherwise, the familiar follows its natural instincts. For example, a cat familiar may stop to chase a mouse, take a quick nap, or sate its curiosity about a small hole, and it’s likely to hide during combat. The strong bond allows the familiar to resist the effects of beast friend. Both can understand each other’s speech. To others, the familiar is simply making animal noises — the mage speaks his normal language. The familiar is a Wild Card with respect to wounds and the Wild Die, but has no bennies. The mage may spend his for the familiar, however. The first time the mage takes this Edge it gains one of the powers below. Each additional time this Edge is taken, the mage can pick two of the powers below and the familiar gains +1 to its Toughness score. Each power may only be taken once. The mage may take this Edge only once each Rank.

• The mage can transfer wounds and Fatigue levels to or from his familiar as a free action.
• The mage may increase one attribute of his choice by one die, to a maximum of d12.
• The mage can use the familiar’s senses as if they were his own. This requires concentration. The maximum range for this ability is the mage’s Smarts x 100 yards.
• The familiar can use the mage’s Combat Edges as its own.
• Any spells the mage casts on himself also affect the familiar. If he casts protetion with a raise, both he and his familiar gain +4 Armor for the duration, for example.
• The familiar has 10 Power Points, which the mage may use as if they were his own. They recharge at the same rate as the mage’s (usually 5 per hour with rest).
• The mage can cast any spell through the familiar, using it as the starting point of the effect (thus extending range, etc.)
• The familiar acts as an arcane focus and grants the cast a +1 to her casting kill if within 10” (20yards).

Steamjack [Novice, Bodger or Arcane Background (Mechanika), Spirits d8+]: the character begins play with a light or medium non-combat codex Steamjack. This jack is loyal to her alone.

You may not move more than your Pace (cannot Run as part of this maneuver) in this round. You also cannot ignore First Strike or someone on ‘Hold’.

Trencher [Seasoned, Agility d6+, Shooting d8+]: Trenchers are specially trained to move under fire. You impose an additional -2 to any Cover modifier you have against enemy ranged attacks against you (you must have at least light cover to gain bonus).

NEW LEADERSHIP EDGES

Born Leader [Veteran, Command]: If you spend a Full Round Action, one ally within your presence area is granted a free and immediate attack of their choice against an enemy of your choosing.

NEW PROFESSIONAL EDGES

Alchemy [Novice, Smarts d6+, Science d4+]: You have learned the Science of Alchemy and create potions, balms, etc. (see Gear).

Archer [Seasoned, Agility d6+, Shooting d8+, Marksman; Bows only]: Archers are among the most prized soldiers in any military. Those who train in advanced techniques learn how to master the bow in all conditions, and they can compensate for any difficulties. Archers reduce all Called Shot, Range, and Cover penalties by 2 total (any combination, but a max penalty eliminated is 2).

Combat Archer [Veteran, Archer, Agility d8+, Fighting d8+, Shooting d10+, Trademark Weapon (bow)]: You train with heavy-duty reinforced bows. They can also use their bows in hand-to-hand combat very effectively. Combat Archers may fire their bows in Close Combat, but target can choice to parry or evade. Or they can strike a target in melee with their stout bows (base STR+d6 damage). Their bows are hardy enough that they are also considered “armed” and don’t suffer a penalty to their Parry scores.

Veteran Archer [Veteran, Agility d6+, Shooting d10+]: Veteran Archers are true masters of the bow. Reduce penalties by another 2 (stacks with Archer) and adds +2 damage with bows.

Armored Caster [Novice, Strength d6+, Mechanika, Sorcery or Spellcasting d8+]: Arcane Mechaniks, Wizards and Sorcerers don’t normally wear much if any armor as it tends to interfere with their spellcasting abilities. These casters have learn to wear up to moderate armor (AP+2) at no penalty to their spellcasting skill. Note that heavier armor still has a full penalty to use.

Armor Master [Novice, Strength d6+, Fighting d6+]: Warriors often learned how to best wear heavy armor effectively. Count the weight of any armor that he is wearing as one-half for Encumbrance. The character ignores the skill penalty to Athletics and only suffers one-half (round down) to Stealth while wearing armor.

Blackclad [Seasoned, Spirits d8+, Arcane Background: Druid, Humans only]: Blackclads are members of the Circle of Orboros and whom follow the primal forces of nature. They tend to dislike civilization but they are not zealots, they simply reject morality as a moral construct that runs counter to the glorious chaos that is nature. These druids gains either a common Argus wolf, a Dusk Wolf, a Gorax, or a Troll Whelp animal companion. The beast is incredibly loyal to you and smarter than a typical member of the species. You also gain +1 with Intimidation and Survival but suffer a -2 to your Persuasion to non-followers of your order.

Calloused Hands [Novice, Vigor d8+, Mechanik d8+ or Repair d8+]: A good steamo does not need a wrench or tool to make basic repairs to a piece of equipment. Instead the character can use her bare hands if she has too. The character can use his bare hands as improvised tools instead of a tool set when making a repair check. This does cause a level of Fatigue at the end of the repairs.

Cavalryman [Seasoned, Riding d8+, Fighting d8+, Mount must be trained for combat]: This hero knows how to make the most of mounted combat. When performing a Mounted Charge, the Cavalryman gets a +2 on his Fighting roll as long as he moves at least 6" in a straight line before attacking. This is in addition to the +4 Damage. This Mounted Charge can be done at the end of a mount’s Run movement with no Multiple Action Penalties.

Mage Hunter [Seasoned, Ioas Elf only, Occultism d6+, Stealth d6+]: Many Ioas Elves believe that it is human magic & mechanik technology is slowly draining the life of the remaining Iosan goddess. Members of the Retribution of Scyrah are dedicated to hunting down and killing wizards and sorcerers. The mage hunters gains +2 Stealth and deal an additional +2 damage against anyone with the Arcane Background – Arcane type. They also gains +2 to his or her Toughness score vs. arcane damage and/or +2 to any Resistance rolls verse arcane spells.

Monster Slayer [Novice, Smarts d6+, Occultism d6+, Notice d6+, Survival d6+]: Many monster hunters have dedicated themselves to protecting the civilized lands from the monsters from the wastes. When confronted by a monstrous or supernatural foe the hero may make an Occultism action check to identify a foe, its characteristics, and common tactics. The GM may impose penalties for uncommon or unique beings. With a success the Monster Slayer knows any weakness the creature might have and gains a +1 to all Trait rolls and damage totals against it until the end of the encounter. On a raise she gains all the creature’s special abilities and the Trait and damage bonus increase to +2.

Oversized Weapon Master [Seasoned, Fighting d8+]: The character may use two-handed melee weapons with one hand. The minimum Strength for using the weapon still applies as normal.

Trailblazer [Novice, Survival d6+]: You have learned to watch the signs and trust your instincts when it comes to navigating the vast wilderness. Anything the GM draws a face card while traveling (indicating a random encounter) the trailblazer can make a Notice -2 check. If successful the trailblazer detects the hazard, creature or situation at the earliest opportunity, giving the party time to likely avoid it or at least attack it on their own terms. The trailblazer also gains +2 to Notice rolls to avoid being surprised.

Warcaster, Journeyman [Seasoned, Arcane Background: Arcane Mechanik or Wizard, Armored Caster, Smarts d8+, Strength d6+, Arcane skill d8+, Battle d8+]: A Warcaster is a specialized casters whom can wear heavier armor and control the mighty ‘jacks with simply mental commands. First the Warcaster can wear any armor without suffering any spell casting penalties. Second they can use a version of Mind Link with any Steamjack under their command within 10” even if they do not have that power. This cost the normal Power Points and Duration. Any Steamjack that the warcaster is Mind Linked with them can share any Touch power with even if they are not within Touch range so long as they are within 10”.

Warcaster, Magistrate [Heroic, Arcane Background: Arcane Mechanik or Wizard, Armored Caster, Smarts d10+, Strength d6+, Arcane skill d10+, Battle d8+]: the Magistrate caster is a true master of the battle field. The range that they can telepathically communicate and grant powers to with a bound ‘jack is now 20”. They also learn how to power arcane batteries more effectively. It now costa them 1 less Power Point to activate any Rune-Plating ability (minimum 1) with an arcane battery (not when using their own Power Points to power a Rune-Plate).

MAGIC

Magic is common within the Iron Kingdoms often mixing with the steam technology of the day. Spells often have common names (or Trappings) in Iron Kingdom. See individual Power Lists for common names.

NOTE that for any Arcane Background: Divine any POWER with a Range listed as Smarts uses Spirits instead.

TRAPPINGS

Many Powers listed under each caster type included notes on Elemental Trapping. These are required to take for these Powers and each has a different game effect when the Power is used.

• Acid – a raise on the spell casting check damages the target’s armor worn, reducing it by one Armor Point in the location where the spell struck (torso by default). If any of the damage dice Ace the target will suffer 1d4 acid damage per Ace on the following round. If used on a Barrier or such (Wall of Acid, etc.) it deals 2d6 damaged to any melee attacker against the wall.
• Cold – a raise on the spell casting check causes the target to treat all movement as Difficult (2” per 1” moved) for one round per raise. If any of the damage dice Ace the target requires a Vigor check (-1 per extra damage die that Aced) or suffer a level of Fatigue. This recovers after one hour of rest. If used on a Barrier (such as Wall of Ice) add +1 to the hardness and targets that make melee attacks against it require a Vigor check or suffer a level of Fatigue (this fatigue recovers with 5 minutes of rest).
• Electrical/Lightning – metal armor counts as two Armor Point less verse electrical damage. With a raise on the spell casting check the target is Distracted and Vulnerable until the end of its next turn. If used as a Barrier (such as Wall of Lighting) cause 2d6 damage to any melee attack against it with the metal armor restriction to this damage.
• Fire – a raise on the spell casting check catches the target on fire. A target on fire is Distracted and takes 2d6 fire damage each round at the beginning of its turn. To put itself out requires a Agility roll (-2 due to the Distracting effect of being one fire) and an Action. Rolling on the ground adds +2 to this check and immersion in water automatically extinguishes the fire. If used as a Barrier (Wall of Fire) it deals 2d6 damage to any melee attacker against it.
• Light/Sunlight – a raise on the spell casting check cause a dazzle affect in the target whom suffers a -2 to all checks that require sight until the end of its next turn. If any of the damage dice also Aced the target requires a Vigor check (-1 per extra dice that Aces) or be Blind (-4 to all visual based checks and Vulnerable) until the end of its next turn. Certain creatures are extra vulnerable to light powers.
• Sonic/Sound – a raise on the spell casting check causes the target to be deafened (can’t hear) which makes the target Distracted and Vulnerable until the end of its next turn. If used as a Barrier (as Wall of Sound) any melee attack must make a Vigor check or be Distracted and Vulnerable until the end of its next round.
• Necrotic/Death - a raise
• Stone/Earth – a raise on the spell casting check knocks the target prone. Targets require an Agility or Strength check (-1 per Ace on any damage dice) or drop any held objects in the hands that require an Action to pick back up. If used on a Barrier (Wall of Stone, etc.) it adds +3 to the barriers rating automatically.
• Water – a raise on the spell casting check knocks the target prone. Targets require an Agility or Strength check (-1 per Ace on any damage dice) or drop any held objects in the hands that require an Action to pick back up. If used on a Barrier (as Wall of Water) will automatically extinguish any fire or neutralize any acid it touches and within 1” of its effects.
• Wind – a raise on the spell casting check knocks the target prone. Targets require an Agility or Strength check (-1 per Ace on any damage dice) or drop any held objects in the hands that require an Action to pick back up. If used on a Barrier (as Wall of Wind) will automatically dispense any air born toxins or smokes within ½ the casters Smarts die in game” from the barrier. Targets making melee attacks the wall must also make a Agility or Strength check or be knocked prone.

MODIFIED SPELLS In the Iron Kingdoms Summon Ally works slightly differently. While whatever you summon has the stats of the Attendant, Bodyguard or Sentinel, certain other abilities are dependent on what is being summon. Also there is no mirror image so instead these are renamed Hunters and have the following base stats.

Attributes: Agility d6, Smarts d6, Spirits d6 Strength d10, Vigor d8

Pace 6, Parry 6, Toughness 9 (3)

Skills: Athletics d8, Fighting d8, Intimidate d8, Notice d4, Shooting d6, Stealth d6

Edges: First Strike

Gear: Melee attack (Str+d6).

Special Abilities...

• Armor +3: Hardened skin.
• Construct: See Attendant.
• Fearless: Immune to fear and Intimidation

Additional Powers based on the type summoned

• Animal – add one of the following – Pace +50%, Aquatic (Swim normal Pace) or Winged (Size -1 but Fly Pace of double base Pace). No gear but automatically have Bite/Claws for Str+d6 at no additional cost. Add the Survival skill (d4 Attendant, d6 Bodyguard, d8 Hunter, d10 Sentinel) along with Alertness.
• Angel/Devil – automatically gain +4 Toughness and to Resistance rolls against their opposing type (Holy vs. Unholy) damage and affects. Automatically carry a weapon of some type (Attendant Str+d6, Bodyguard Str+d8, Hunter Str+d10, Sentinel Str+d12)
• Elemental – Air (Immunity to non-Magical attacks, Fly Pace 12), Earth (increase Strength by +1 step and Size by +1 step, increase Armor +2, immune to earth/stone based attacks), Fire (Fly Pace 6, Damage Field 2d6 fire, immune to fire based attacks), Water (Aquatic, immune to water/cold based attacks, Water Spout Cone Template 2d6 damage with Water Trappings).

NEW POWERS

Analyze Foe

• Rank: Novice
• Power Points: 1 – 2
• Range: Smarts x 2
• Duration: 5 rounds
• Trappings: Mystical sense, spiritual advice, gestalt knowledge.

Analyze Foe grants insight into your foe. Knowledge is power. Being able to judge the strength of a foe before engaging him in combat can be highly advantageous. The character makes an arcane skill roll opposed by the target’s Spirit. On a success, he gains a +1 bonus to Trait rolls to directly affect the target, and the target suffers a –1 penalty to Trait rolls to directly affect the caster. With a raise, the effect is increased to +2 and –2 for both. In addition, for 2 Power Points, a success allows the caster to learn of a single Immunity, Invulnerability, or Weakness of the target (if one exists), and a raise allows the knowledge of two.

Legerdemain

• Rank: Novice
• Power Points: 1
• Range: Smarts
• Duration: Instant
• Trappings: Mimicking action, briefly summoned spirit, astral bi-location.

Legerdemain allows the character to perform a single action at range he would normally be capable of doing in person. If the action would require a Trait roll, then the caster rolls the lower of that Trait or his arcane skill to both activate the power and determine the results of the action. If the action does not require a Trait roll, then his arcane skill is used normally. Casting legerdemain is a normal action, but the action performed through the use of it is considered a free action (existing free actions like speaking are unchanged). However the caster is still limited to not duplicating the same action in a round, so it is impossible to cast another spell via legerdemain. The power does not create or duplicate the effects of any gear or magical effects upon the caster, but in all other ways, the action is treated exactly as if the caster were performing the action himself at the location. i.e. a Fighting attack does his normal unarmed Strength damage, even if the caster is holding a dagger with smite on it.

Remote Viewing

• Rank: Veteran
• Power Points: 2
• Range: Special
• Duration: 5 rounds
• Trappings: Astral projection, clairvoyance, clairaudience, crystal ball.

The power allows the user to able to gather sensory information they would not normally have access to. Typically this includes sight and sound, but may incorporate any two senses depending on the power's trappings. The hero need only make a Spellcasting check to gather data from any point within one mile as though he were standing at that point. Once an observation point is chosen, the character can concentrate to maintain and move it on their turn, imposing a multi-action penalty.

Additional Effects: for each additional +1 power point, the power triple the range of the power (3 miles, 9 miles, 27 miles, etc.)

Suggestion

• Rank: Novice
• Power Points: 2
• Range: Smarts
• Duration: Instant
• Trappings: Mind Trick, Foolishness

Suggestion allows you to make unbelievable suggestions that do not threaten the target. Make an opposed Power skill use vs. Spirits roll, on success the target believes your lie or follows your suggestion like it was his idea. You can also make a small illusion that distracts your target. Make a Power skill test, on success your target is distracted for one round and you may attempt a Stealth roll even if he was watching you before or you can attempt to get ‘The Drop’ on him. Target gets a Notice (-2 if you scored a raise) to avoid surprised.
