OVA demostration & questions

[DarthFox]

Hi everybody!

I will run an OVA demo during this weekend at a local event here in Italy.
The adventure is inspired on "Silent Mobius", a cyberpunk/paranormal mang/anime by Kia Asamiya.

I already prepared the characters and the first draft of the adventure is almost finished... hope the players will enjoy it.

I just have a question, hope you guys can help me: how do you "build" a self-destruction attack? i need it because one of the characters (a combat droid) should have this "ability" (triggered by a particular circumstance).

thanks,

Do you want the attack to kill him when it is used?

[DarthFox]

Well... yes!
The idea is that the droid can be used as a "bomb" by the end of the demo: as a last solution if the other members of the group are KO or the threat is too strong to be beaten.

[Blobathehutt]

okay I will try my hand at making the attack for also you could just have it be a story thing if you want instead of a attack but I will make up a attack either way

[Blobathehutt]

self-destruction attack
base DX 3
Perks/flaws
backlashx4 -20 (You die!),AoE +10, Effectivex2 +10

Also for more damage you could do this
backlashx4 -20 (You die!), Buildup -5 ,AoE +10, Effectivex3 +15

You can throw the "requirement" flaw in there somewhere to fit your needs and make the DX even higher. This may not be 100% by the book I'm still kinda new but I hope this helped

[DarthFox]

Thanks for the example!

[Blobathehutt]

Make sure to let me know how the game goes!

Probably a little late to comment, but you may also want to consider the Break Flaw. This will ensure that the character can only use the Attack when Health/Endurance is low enough to finish the character off.
