I know, you’re reading this and thinking “What and the hell has Christopher come up with this time?” Honestly, I don’t know, man. Something happened. Then something else and now I’m here staring at this crazy thing. This bit of gear is the result of a story one of my players (+Travis Ellis) wrote about his […]

So recently someone posted about the “goo guns” from the Incredibles on the forums. Since that is one of my favorite superhero flicks of all time I decided to poke at the idea of building a “goo gun” using metatronic generators. New Binding Modifiers First, some new modifiers for Binding (p. B40): Cosmic, Enhanced Layering: This […]

Basic damage is the amount rolled on the dice for the attack, penetrating damage is the amount after applying Damage Resistance and other protections (e.g., Injury Tolerance), and injury is the total amount of hit points you suffered from that attack.
