ECOLOGY

Loners, and they reproduce by fission (destroys current host) every 3-5 years. Lucky adventurers will encounter a baby one.

They like to take over a body then accomplish some twisted goal, like steal 5,000,000 credits, or kill 7 children,

or release the dam spillway into a town, or pull the giant lever that disconnects a docked cruise liner. Burn down a fuel refinery complex. They then leap out of the body and leave the pathetic victim to take the rap.

They especially like to telepathize into the brains of those who get the death penalty, or that the police kill, as nothing (for them)

beats the joy of feeling someone innocent get the electric chair, or shot, or whatever. From a human point of view they are quite demented.

Heads up! unlike Int.Devs from a TSR game they do not destroy the brain or erase the victim permanently.

TECHNOMANCER ABILITIES

Resolve points 5

Technomancer abilities all “spells” are internal, without devices, like psychic powers.

DR 5/adamantine and magic; Immune sonic, mind-affecting effects;

Resist cold 10, electricity 10, fire 10; SR 23

Weaknesses vulnerability to Zone of Truth (stunned and compelled to flee D4 rounds)

vulnerability to Command, (they will obey for 1D20 rounds)

Blindsight Exotic.

BODY THIEF: It shrinks down to Fine size and crawls into the helpless victim. Victim can also be dead, if less than 4 hours ago. Cannot be undead, draconic, elemental, construct, or plant. Then it taps the spine or nervous system, and starts running the show. It may show up on certain scanners as a parasite or tumor. Most medics will not know what the problem is. It can use languages, skills, memories of the victim at 50% accuracy. IE the victim has Science at +11. The gorger can puppet the victim but the science skill will be at +6. For non skill memories, basically give the gorger 50% chance to get it right, and if fails it can still attempt bluff.

Cure Self 3x day.
