Inspired by Paul Kießhauer‘s challenge, the Villains of Umdaar, I’m present my own submission: the Scorpotaurs!
It was inspired by one of Gennifer Bone’s Monsters of the Week. Support her patreon, you can get access to more images like the one below. https://www.patreon.com/ladyredfingers (Warning: some images NSFW).
THE SCORPOTAURS
Bioform: Bellicose Scorpion Centaurs
Motivation: I’M the strongest
Aspects: Big and Mean; Poor Jumpers; Ranged Weapons are for Weaklings
Approaches:
Forceful: Good +3
Quick: Fair +2
All others: Mediocre +0.
Stress: 2 stress each
Stunts:
Scorpion Legs: Scorpotaurs can climb up vertical surfaces with ease. They also gain +2 Quick when overcoming any climbing rolls.
Weapon: Scorpotaurs are armed with one weapon from the Umdaar weapons chart (reroll any range weapons).
SCORPOTAUR ALPHA
The alpha is the leader of the clan or the hunting party. They are the toughest fighters, but their position in society is fragile; they fact that they already pledge allegiance to an outside Master has made them weak in the eyes of their followers.
Bioform: Bellicose Scorpion Centaur Chieftain
Motivation: I Must Remain in Charge
Aspects: Bigger and Meaner; Poor Jumpers; Ranged Weapons are for Weaklings
Ranged Weapons are for Weaklings
I Serve the Master… For Now
Approaches:
Forceful: Superb +5
Quick: Great +4
Clever: Good +3
All others: Average +1.
Stress: 3 stress, plus one condition (2 stress)
Stunts:
Scorpion Legs: Scorpotaurs can climb up vertical surfaces with ease. They also gain +2 Quick when overcoming any climbing rolls.
Weapon: Scorpotaurs are armed with one weapon from the Umdaar weapons chart (reroll any range weapons).
Venom Tail – The Alpha has the BIG tail. Instead of making a weapon attack, the Alpha may use Quick to make a Tail attack. If the attack is successful, the victim gains the aspect “Poisoned.” While poisoned, the character cannot use the Approach “Quick.” The venom is caustic, and will even affect non-organic bioforms! The aspect can be overcome by a healer (or, for androids, a mechanic), or will drop off at the end of the NEXT scene.
