ATLANTIS:The Second Age Player’s Companion
How do I use this book?

Hello and welcome to the ATLANTIS: The Second Age Player’s Guide! This book is to help
supplement the character creation process of the ATLANTIS: The Second Age role-playing game.
What makes this book so handy is that it focuses on just one aspect of the game and zeroes in on
the primary aspect of character creation: “What do I want to play?”
What is this book?

This book simplifies character creation and helps players who are overwhelmed with the 200+
character combinations available to them at the start. Some sections from the ATLANTIS: The
Second Age core book are duplicated here for quick reference.
Do you need this book?

No, if you have the ATLANTIS: The Second Age core book you don’t need this book but its
handy when everyone is sitting around the table wanting to look at the racial and professional
options.
Where are the Life paths?

They aren’t presented here because that part of character creation is designed to be done as a
group in the hopes that it will be used to tie the player characters together. Again, this book is just
to help illustrate what races look like in different professions and to streamline that aspect of the
creation process.
Where are the cultural charts?

I thought about throwing those into the book too but decided against it. There are 13 different
racial types, 16 different professions, and 102 cultural variants. For a second I got really ambitious
and started to incorporate the cultural skills and attributes into the text but realized that there
would be over 20,000 variations!!!
Since I suffer from a disease called Lazy, I quickly realized that this was way too much work and
beyond my drive to do. Sorry.
A note on the Hit Point entry

Hit Points are the base Hit Points that the race has and are not modified by the CON attribute
yet. I did this for the simple reason that a player may modify the character’s CON attribute and
didn’t want to muddy the water any. Add the character’s final CON after any modifications to the
Hit Point total.
Create Antediluvian Heroes!

Follow the normal steps for character creation found in the ATLANTIS: The Second Age core
book but augment the information there with the new information found here.

Ahl-At-Rab
(A.K.A. Lizard Men, Snake Men, Saurians)
Ahl-At-Rab (sometimes called “Sand Devils”) are a warlike species of Saurians who populate certain
deserts and barren wastelands. They are a nomadic race and continually move from place to place in
search of food. They are believed to be distantly related to the sea-dwelling Makara and are known
to have been the one-time slaves of the Naga.
Although many see the Ahl- Although they are not builders, the Ahl-At-Rab are fairly skilled at making weapons and crude

are usually not mistreated unless they are believed to be spies.
Though once quite numerous, the Ahl-At-Rab are believed to be a dying race. Few existing tribes
number greater than forty to fifty warriors, plus a like number of females, young, and old ones. On
rare occasions, two or more tribes will join forces and travel en masse, but most of the time the Ahl-
At-Rab tribes are too busy warring against each other to bother with treaty-making.
The Ahl-At-Rab love the beauty and honesty of violence in all its aspects and some even elevate it
to an art form. Some consider the Ahl-At-Rab brutish but they perform very elaborate plays during
ceremonies and religious gatherings. The plays are gut-wrenching tales of tragedy, unrequited love,
and black betrayals. Many great works of the antediluvian world are believed to be taken from these
plays and re-imagined by other races.
Physical Description:
Humanoid in form, Ahl-At-Rab are slow-moving but powerful creatures. They average about
2 meters in height, though 2.25 meter tall males are not uncommon. All have scaly hides, which
range in color from black to green and tan to dark brown. A fin-like crest runs from the center of
the forehead to the base of the neck, and is believed to help maintain body temperature. Females of
the race have a fan of brightly colored feathers starting at their temples and stopping at the back of
their necks. Like all reptiles, Ahl-At-Rab are cold-blooded creatures. Because of their often violent
lifestyle, Ahl-At-Rab generally live about 45 years.
Personality:
The Ahl-At-Rab are a serious and stoic people who assess every living thing as either a threat,
a pack mate, or food. The language of the Ahl-At-Rab has seventeen words for survival but none
for friendship. The Ahl-At-Rab are harsh in their dealings with others, and consider a full belly and
a dead rival a good life, hoping that when they meet their end it will be upon a heap of broken
enemies. The Ahl-At-Rab do not fear death but accept it as the logical conclusion to living; they do
not run from death but advance towards it hissing battle cries in defiance, hoping to drag whatever
opponent they face into the abyss with them.

The Guide of Heroes
Racial Abilities
Cold Blooded
Ahl-At-Rab need very little water to survive and are almost immune to extreme heat. Ahl-At-
Rab characters receive a bonus of triple their CON (minimum of +3) to any CON resistance check
for heat exposure. Versus cold exposure and cold-based attacks, the Ahl-At-Rab suffer a penalty of
-3 to resist and a penalty to their SPD of -3 for 7-CON rounds.
Acute Sense of Smell
Ahl-At-Rab smell by using their forked tongues to collect
airborne particles. When making a
Perception check based on smell, an Ahl-
At-Rab may add triple their PER to the roll
(minimum of +3).
Natural Weapons
Ahl-At-Rab Heroes are born with
fearsome fangs and clawed hands. Bite DR 3,
Claws DR 3 (armor piercing). If it’s the Hero’s
first attack in the round, the Ahl-At-Rab may
use his claws to attack twice without a multiple
action penalty
Poison Spray
Ahl-At-Rab may spit a burning poison at a
foe, blinding them for a number of rounds equal
to the Hero’s CON minus their opponent’s
DEX (minimum of one round). The foe will
suffer a penalty to all actions that require sight
equal to the Ahl-At-Rab’s CON (minimum of
minus one).
The Ahl-At-Rab must make a successful
to-hit roll using the Athletics Skill + CR for
the poison to land, and if the target is wearing
a helmet of some sort, the amount of time the
poison is active is reduced by the PR of the helm.
The range of this attack is equal to the Hero’s STR
in meters.
Example: An Ahl-At-Rab with a CON
+4 spits at a target with a DEX +0. The
venom would normally blind the target for
4 rounds but fortunately for the victim he
has a helmet with a PR 2 protection. The
target would only be blinded for 2 rounds.

Azi Dahaka, or ‘Night Killer’, is the derogatory name for an Ahl-At-Rab assassin. Because of
their sinewy physique the Ahl-At-Rab are trained to attack at odd angles using their chosen natural
or melee weapons. An Azi Dahaka is a trained weapon master and thief hired to kill quietly. Azi

Serpent Feint
The Hero maneuvers in such a way that he draws his opponents into a compromising and less
defensible position.
Benefit: The Hero makes a rolling with his CR+weapon Skill verses a DoD equal to his opponent’s
PER+Evade or Parry (whichever is being used at the time) Skill. If successful he reduces the
opponent’s total Skill Rating by half for a single attack. The attack may be used immediately or
saved for a future attack during the same combat.
Example: A Hero with a melee Skill of +7 and a CR +5 (total Skill Rating of +12) is
fighting an opponent with a PER +1, Evade +8, and DEX +4. The he makes a Serpent Feint
roll versus his opponent’s PER+Evade Skill, total DoD -9. He gets a success and can reduce his
opponent’s Evade Skill Rating from a -12 to a -6.

Andamen
(A.K.A. Beast-men, Werebeasts, Chimeras)
The Andamen are a race of humanoids created long ago by the Atlantean sorcerers of the First
Age to fight the Beast Wars against the Naga and their Ophidian Empire. Once said to be quite
numerous, the so-called “Beast-men” are now considered a dwindling race. Each race was formed
for a certain task and used as slaves and soldiers for their eldritch masters. When the Atlanteans saw
no need for the Beast-men, they were abandoned and left to fend for themselves. Some embraced
their bestial nature while others formed societies and civilizations of their own.
There are several distinct sub-species of Andamen, each created through numerous attempts at
cross-breeding and magical experimentation. They include the lion-men (Nemeans), jackal-men
(Anubim), wolf-men (Asena), jaguar-men (Balam), owl-men (Uluka), gill-men (Tritons), and bull-
men (Taurans or Minotaurs). Regardless of type, all Andamen are physically altered to suit the
needs of their Atlantean creators and are physically distinct from their baseline human source.

are now a thing of the past, surely
the secrets of such feats must rest
in some laboratory or alchemical Blood of the Andaman
study somewhere in the world. The blood of an Andaman is potent with the magics that first lifted them from all fours to walk
Aeschylus, Atlantean War Magus like men. When the blood is mixed in sufficient quantities with milk and fed to animals, it gives the
Andaman a bond with the beast. This makes the animal loyal to the Andaman and pliable to taming
and training. The blood will only work to make the beast loyal to the giver of the blood, and only
beasts that are of the same ilk as the Andaman may be enthralled so. An Owl-man could never tame
a lion and a wolf could never be tamed by a Triton.
Enough blood must be administered (5 hp a day) for a week to tame the beast (giving a bonus
of +10 to Animal Handling rolls). Once the animal is tamed the beast will consider the Andaman
its friend.
Silver Allergy
Because of their alchemical nature all Andamen suffer from an allergy to silver. Handling silver
items will cause irritation and discomfort resulting in a -5 penalty to all actions while in prolonged
contact (more than 2 rounds). Silver weapons cause double damage and leave blistering injuries that
take twice as long to heal.

Animal Magnetism
You have a natural way with animals.
Benefit: The Hero adds triple his CHA (minimum of +3) to rolls pertaining to Animal Handling
and Ride Skills. If you encounter an animal and are not actively in combat, you may attempt to
soothe the creature by making a successful CHA check. On a partial success, the animal will simply
retreat by the quickest means possible. A full success means the animal in question considers you to
be friendly and may aid you in some manner.
Anubim (the Jackal-Men)

Used as guards and enforcers for the Atlantean generals during the Beast Wars, the Anubim
were loyal and quick to action. Standing over 1.5 meters tall with a wiry, lean build and the heads of
jackals, Anubim are covered in short, fine fur ranging in color from jet black to a dusky gold. Most
Anubim adorn themselves in gold and lapis jewelry that contrasts their fur.
Personality:
Anubim are serious and even-tempered individuals who do what they say and always keep
their word. Anubim are loyal to those they call friends and would lay
down their life for a loved one without hesitation. If an Anubim
considers you a brother you know that he will follow you to
the ends of the world and expect the same from you.
Anubim are also the most clever and wise of the Beast-men
and were used as assistants to the Atlantean magi they served.
In that time, they quietly learned the ways of magic in secret,
hiding this from their masters.
Racial Abilities
Natural Weapons
Anubim are born with fearsome fangs. Bite DR 4.
Beast Language
Anubim have the ability to communicate with jackals, dogs,
wolves, and similar creatures to a limited degree. This gives
them a bonus equal to their CHA +3 (minimum of +3) to
Animal Handling Skill rolls involving wolves and dogs.

Anubim have an enhanced sense of smell. When making a
Perception check or Tracking roll based on smell, the Hero may

Of all the Andamen, the Anubim are the most closely
allied with humans. When acting in a coordinated effort, the
human (non-humans gain only half the bonus round up) and
the Anubim both gain a bonus equal to triple the Hero’s PER
(minimum +3). The bonus only applies to the first dice action
in a given round for everyone involved (maximum number of
participants equal to twice the Hero’s INT, minimum of 2). The
coordination lasts only a number of rounds equal to the Hero’s
PER +5 (minimum of 5 rounds) and may be used only once per
day.

Balam (Jaguar-Men)
Large and powerfully built, the spotted bodies of the warrior Balam stand over 1.8 meters tall,
weighing 80 to 90 kilograms. Most males wear necklaces made from the teeth or bones of dead
ancestors. In some families, prized or great ancestors’ bodies are stripped at death for the sacred
bones.
Personality:
Balam are crafty and clever people, constantly on the lookout for ways to better their situation.
Incurably selfish, the Balam focus almost entirely on their needs and well-being. Quick to anger,
they solve most of their problems with physical force; fools and the weak are never suffered.
Racial Abilities

damage.

ambient light, allowing him to see well
in conditions of darkness. Normal penalties
for darkness are halved and the Hero receives a

blind as anyone else.

Nemeans (Lion-Men, Kings of Beasts, Feral Lords)
The generals of the Beast-men armies during the war with the Naga, the Nemeans are almost
always gold in color but occasionally a rare instance of a black-furred Nemean is seen. Both males
and females are fierce warriors of this species and all are known for their commanding roar and
how the other Beast-men defer to them (perhaps something imbued in them by the Atlantean
masters). Nemeans are known for their arrogance and demand that they be considered first in
status. Nemeans stand 1.75 to 2.25 meters tall and weigh 95 to 130 kilograms.
Personality:
The Nemeans are born with an innate sense of entitlement and assume that other Andamen will
defer to their regal nature. Haughty and full of themselves, the Lion-men are quick to anger when
they are crossed but are patient enough to wait for the right moment to exact their revenge. Their
regal and conceited nature is repellent to most but Lion-men see this as jealousy at their inborn
greatness. To a friend the Nemeans are loyal and will do everything, including sacrificing their
lives, to help.
Racial Abilities
Natural Weapons
Nemeans are born with fearsome fangs and claws. Bite DR
4, Claws DR 3 (armor piercing). (If it’s the Hero’s first attack
in the round, the Andaman may use his claws to attack twice
without a multiple action penalty)
Lord of the Beast-men

Among the Andamen the Nemeans are kings. All social
interactions with other Beast-men have a bonus of triple
the Hero’s CHA (minimum of +3).
Beast Language
Nemeans have the ability to communicate with any
canine, feline, aquatic, or avian life to a limited degree. This
gives them a bonus equal to the CHA (minimum of +1) to
Animal Handling Skill rolls involving many creatures.
Lion’s Roar
The roar of a Nemean is used both to inspire allies and strike
fear into enemies. When used to inspire the roar gives the Hero’s
allies a bonus to one dice roll (designated by the Hero) equal to
twice his CHA (minimum of +2).
When used to instill fear, those opposed to the Hero must
make a WIL roll with a DoD equal to triple the Hero’s CHA
(minimum of +3). If they fail, they suffer a penalty equal to
the Hero’s CHA for a number of rounds equal to the Hero’s
CON+1 (minimum of one round).
The Lion’s Roar is taxing and may only be used (in
either capacity) a number of times per day equal to his
CON (minimum of once a day).

Owl-men (Birdmen, Flyers, Uluka)
Used as aerial forces, the Owl-men closely resembled normal Atlanteans in the beginning, with
dark skin and large powerful wings on their backs. Soon, the magics that created them took hold
tightly and formed them closer to the beasts they were bred with. Now Uluka are covered in a
light coat of feathers ranging in color from black to brownish red. The Owl-men are lithe and wiry
standing 1.5 to 1.75 meters tall, typically weighing 45 to 50 kilograms.
The Uluka took the last of the Atlantean’s sky fortresses as their home and built and expanded

to the ground. Currently the Uluka are looking for a place to settle their city high in the mountains.

Personality:
Du’st, Netherman Thug
The Uluka are a quiet and introspective people who are honest and plain-spoken. They are
always clear in how they feel and straightforward in how they express it. Other races find this
troubling or off-putting since the ugly truth is sometimes hard to stomach.
The Owl-men are a peaceful people, but this does not mean they are pacifists. They will pursue
every avenue to a non-violent solution, but when all corridors to peace are blocked they will fight
with a furor and savagery that would make a Nethermen ashen with fright.
Racial Abilities
Lords of the Sky
The Uluka are winged creatures who are at home in the sky. When flying Uluka move at
triple their SPD (minimum of +6).
Silent Flight
When in flight an Uluka is very silent and may add triple her DEX
(minimum of +3) to any stealth roll.
Beast Language
Uluka have the ability to communicate with birds to a limited degree.
This gives them a bonus equal to their CHA +3 (minimum of +3) to
Animal Handling Skill rolls involving avian life.
Owl Perception
The Hero has incredible perception and may hear
and see at greater than normal distances with amazing
clarity. The Hero receives a bonus to sight- and sound-
based Perception checks equal to triple their PER
(minimum of +3). All sight-based range penalties are
reduced by one range step when targeting with a ranged
weapon.
Rarified Air
The Owl-men are used to operating in very thin air and do not suffer
as badly as others in such environments. In thin atmospheres the Owl-man
may operate normally and when holding his breath may do so for twice as
long as a normal person.

Taurans (Minotaurs)
The large bull-men are feared for their great strength and infinite rage. Standing 2.25–2.5
meters tall and weighing 136–181 kilograms the Taurans are the largest of the Beast-men and are
known as bullies and blowhards. All Taurans have horns and the larger the horns the more prestige
they enjoy in their society. Tauran horns are adorned with many rings (the more the better), and
they wear gold horn-rings, ear-rings, nose-rings, and torcs as a sign of status. The saying, “Neck as
strong as a bull” comes from the fact that Taurans wear so much gold that a normal neck would

Racial Abilities
Natural Weapons
Taurans are born with prodigious Horns.
Horns DR 5.
Bull Charge
Taurans may attack an enemy by charging
at him with his horns. The attack suffers a
-5 penalty above what is needed to hit
but if successful he hits his opponent
for 15 + STR Hit Points of damage
and knocks his opponent off his
feet. The target must spend an
action to regain his footing.
If the Tauran fails in the
attack he loses an action next
round and on a Critical Failure
he hits something hard with
his head and must make a
CON roll with a DoD-10. If
he fails he suffers a -2 penalty
for 6-CON rounds (minimum
of one round).
Strong as a Bull
Tauran strength and
stamina is legendary. The Hero
may take damage that would
kill another being (zero Hit
Points) and continue to stay
on his hooves and be active
for a number of rounds equal
to twice his CON (minimum
of 2 rounds).

Tritons (Gill-men, Mermen)
Used in the Beast Wars to fight against the Naga leviathans and Makara forces, in the beginning
the Tritons resembled closely the normal humans from which they were birthed, but the alchemical
magics soon twisted them into the form they hold today. Now unsuited for the surface world,
Tritons must wear special apparatus at their necks to breathe out of water.
Tritons stand 1.5–1.8 meters tall and weigh 68–90 kilograms. Their skin ranges in color from
green to blue, with accents of reds and gold on scales that shimmer with a metallic sheen. Their
large, black eyes are well-suited to the aquatic depths they reside in.
Personality:
The Tritons are clear and even-tempered thinkers that act in the best interest of their society. Don’t believe everything
They are never eager for violence but act with efficiency when presented with hostility. Triton you hear about Tritons, I know
diplomats and tacticians are sought after all over the world. more than one with a wicked
temper and bloodthirsty nature.
Granted, those who spend long
periods on land tend to be more
Racial Abilities tolerant.
Aquatic Thalmia, Triton Sorceress.
The Tritons are born of the water and are at home in the crushing and cold depths of the sea. In
water, the Triton may move at triple his SPD (minimum of +3) and may breathe freely. When on
dry land, the Triton is awkward and unaccustomed to land movement, acting as if his SPD is
-1 (only for distance moved and not Initiative).
Tritons may only survive outside of water for CON + 1 hours
(minimum of 1 hour) before suffocating. To counter this, all Tritons
are given a small water bladder apparatus that fits to their neck.
The device must be refilled every 4 hours to work properly and
with it a Triton may stay out of water indefinitely.
Beast Language
Tritons have the ability to communicate
with aquatic life to a limited degree. This
gives them a bonus equal to their CHA + 3
(minimum of +3) to Animal Handling Skill
rolls involving sea life.
Night Vision
The Hero has the ability to amplify
existing ambient light allowing him to see.
Normal penalties for darkness are halved and
the Hero receives a bonus to Perception rolls
equal to triple his PER (minimum of +3). In
pitch darkness the Hero is as blind as anyone
else.

Atlanteans
(Little Gods, God-Kings, Noble Creators, Lords of the Earth, Man Shapers)
Though they are but the fourth root race of seven, to hear the Atlanteans speak it is as if they
are greater than all the others before them. They were not a construct of any of their predecessors,
instead seeming to come into existence on their own (an oft-spoken and oft-denied rumor is that
they came from some other world or dimension, escaping some great cataclysm or other). They did
not experience an early period of growth or evolution — physical, mental, or social — but instead
always were exactly what they are: a confident, arrogant race that presumes themselves superior to
all others, and has generally had the talent and strength to back up such claims.
The Atlanteans are known for many things, all of them done seemingly without any sense of
humility, shame, or fear of failure. And when seeming defeat has come their way, the Atlanteans
have always been quick to argue it was all part of the plan. When they chose to create an empire,
it spanned the world and rivaled all others before or since, and when that empire was gradually
pushed back, it was done with a sense that such a tactical retreat was in the Atlantean interest.
Although they no longer hold the position of superiority they once did — that mantle belongs
now to humans — the Atlanteans still argue that the future is theirs to grasp. Some claim that they
are already constructing yet a new slave race to help them recapture what was once theirs; others
say that humans are in fact that race, secretly being manipulated from behind the scenes by these
cunning taskmasters. Whether or not this is the case, and whether or not the Atlanteans truly
believe any of it — or are merely pretending — is unknown; just how they like it.
With skin the color of polished mahogany or deep bronze, the statuesque Atlanteans stand
above all other men on earth. They wear their kinky hair in long wavy locks, oiled with exotic
fragrances and sprinkled in gold and silver flakes. Their eyes are the color of gold or emeralds
(sometimes a mixture of both) and their inviting lips the color of pitch. The Atlanteans are all
beautiful and gracefully built: the idea of perfection in a primitive world. All Atlanteans stand at
least 1.8 meters tall, weighing around 68 to 90 kilograms.
Whenever possible, Atlanteans wear fine clothing made from exotic fabrics from far-off lands,
arms, hands, legs, and feet adorned with precious metals and gems.
Personality:
Most other cultures think the Atlanteans arrogant, cold, and condescending, always looking
down their noses at the other races as if they are beneath them. The Atlanteans would say this is
true and that most other races are like children to them, lost in the world and likely to remain so
without their seneschals to look after them.
The Atlanteans believe it is their destiny to rule, a right given them by their god. What some see
as cruelty, they see as compassion and a steady hand.
Most of the races see them as depraved and hedonistic but the Atlanteans see the world as
something to be explored and brought low before its rightful masters. Sex is casual and meant to
be explored, drugs expand the mind and enlighten the soul, and food and wine is to be consumed.
The world is their paradise.
Racial Abilities
Aura of the Gods
Atlanteans get bonuses in social situations because the world has been conditioned to deal with
them. They receive a bonus equal to double their CHA (minimum +2) to Leadership rolls.
Unearthly Beauty
They can never be mistaken for anything but an Atlantean. They are always in some way
beautiful. The Hero adds double his CHA (minimum +2) to any social situation where physical
beauty may be an advantage.
50
The Guide of Heroes
Vril Masters
They alone can control Vril to its maximum effects. Vril items add the Hero’s MR rating
(minimum of +2) to the Vril item’s effective rating. The Hero chooses one Attribute and may
augment it in some way.
Example: A weapon may increase the DR, reduce the STR needed, or increase the accuracy.
A vehicle could be made to move faster by increasing the SPD, a suit of armor may have its PR
increased, etc. The GM and player should decide how the item’s enhanced.
When drawing power from a Vril-enriched area the Atlantean Hero may double his MR for the
sake of the amount of Hero Points drawn.
Beast Lore
Because they were the original seneschals of the Earth, they know the names of
every beast that crawls, swims, or flies (INT roll with a DoD determined by
the GM). This also gives them some slight authority over the Beast-
men they created. When encountering an Andaman they will
be the last to ever be attacked and in social situations
they gain a bonus of 2 + CHA (minimum of 2, does not
stack with the Aura of the Gods ability).
Vice
All Atlanteans have some sort of vice that holds
them in its thrall. Vice is a practice or a behavior or
habit generally considered immoral, depraved, or
degrading in the associated society. Some indulge in
drinking or another intoxicant, while others embrace
the pleasures of the flesh. The Hero must indulge
in his vice once per day to keep his soul sated. If
he cannot, his mind becomes addled and his
disposition becomes foul. The Hero’s INT, WIL,
MR, and CHA are penalized by -1 per day
that the Hero must go without. Once he has
quenched his “thirst,” his Attributes revert to
normal.

The Guide of Heroes
Humans
(Men, the Earth Children, Children of Edom)
Humans work the land in every nation, comprising the majority of the world’s population.
They are slaves and serfs, beggars and bandits. They are alchemists and scholars, nobles and kings.
Many Humans harbor hatred or mistrust for the “lesser” races and monsters. In some nations,
this attitude is more pronounced than in others, just as such a demeanor often depends on a
person’s education, religious beliefs, or social rank. In all things, Humans are a race most affected
by the events around them. Just as the highest king or queen deals in war and the intricacies of
the courts, so does the lowest peasant listen for news of a coming battle or seek signs to indicate
the quality of a harvest. Humans are unique among the races, for they are not shut away from the
world — they are the world. Kingdoms rise and Empires fall by the actions of all men and women.
Human adults generally range between 1.5–1.8m in height, weighing between 56–60kg,
although there are many larger and smaller, lighter and heavier Humans. Those who live without
the need for toil or effort are often prone to corpulence and fatness, while a peasant who works
hard and a soldier that practices with the blade will be able to keep themselves reasonably healthy
for their whole lives, short of suffering injury or illness.
Personality:
The diversity among humanity varies among the nations of the Second Age. The
Humans such as those of Atlantis, Khemit, Minoa, or Khitai live fairly safe lives.
They want for little, save ever-increasing wealth and power. Others, not fortunate
enough to be born in such civilized places, must struggle simply to survive; they
are one drought or monster raid away from starvation and death. The nations of
men and women battle each other just as often as they stand united.
Racial Abilities
Zeal
All Humans are born with a fire in their belly and a drive to succeed where
others would fail. The Hero may add double his WIL (minimum of +2) to a number
or rolls per adventure equal to his CON (minimum of once).
Tyche
Being the favored of the gods (at least at present), Humans are allowed in a small
way to enforce their personal will upon the universe. They can force a re-roll of any dice
action that affects them directly, a number of times per game session equal to their WIL
(minimum once per game). The roll need not be made by the Hero and may affect rolls
made by the GM or other players when it pertains to the character. The re-roll must affect
the Hero and may not manipulate fate for the benefit of others.
Note: The ability to affect rolls only applies to the Hero and never the group when a
situation occurs that could affect more than one person.
Example: The Hero may affect the throwing roll of a fireball when an adversary
makes an attack, but all others must use the original roll and gain no benefit from the
Hero’s Tyche ability.
Attribute allocation
Inheritors of the Earth
Some say that the Humans will eventually inherit the Earth. To represent this, Human Heroes
may allot their 5 points in Attributes anywhere they see fit. They may also reduce an Attribute by
negative numbers (up to a maximum of -2) and add the points to another Attribute as a positive
number. Once this is done the Human receives an additional +2 to add to any Attribute as a gift
from the gods. This gives Humans a total of +7 to add to Attributes or a +9 if negative Attributes
are taken.

Jinn
(The Elders, the Children of Fire, Chaos Folk, the Others, Moon Children, People Under
the Mound)
To try and define what the Jinn are is to try and define creation itself, for the Jinn are, quite
literally, the stuff from which the world was shaped by the Elder Gods; the first root race. To them
the world is full of nothing but possibility, just as they are. In some ways, it is easier to define what
they are by defining what they are not. No eat Jinn. Du’st eat Jinn
The Jinn never ruled over the Earth like many of the other races, nor did they ever seek to do once. Du’st turn into cow for
so. How can one rule over something that one is a part of? And to what purpose? The machinations days. Du’st nearly eaten by wife.
of the Atlanteans in particular were both amusing and confusing to the Jinn. What would you do No eat.
with the world once you had it in your grasp? Du’st, Netherman Thug
The Jinn have also not engaged in mass warfare like many of the other races. This is
not to say that they are incapable of violence, but rather that they have little inclination
to try to take from others by force. If there are desirable things, there are much better
ways of grasping those things; warfare is easy in the short term, but pointless in the
long, and the Jinn are in no hurry.
The Jinn are a disappearing race. In the Golden Age, a Jinn was a common
sight, but now fewer and fewer Jinn are seen in the world. Some say that they
are all going back to the safety of their jars, while others say that the race is
slowly vanishing and being forgotten like the wild dreams they are. Now, Jinn
are a sight seen perhaps once in a lifetime for most and a large group of 20
or so is very rare indeed. On the continent of Atlantis, scholars estimate
the population at a little over a 1,000 and the global population at one
million.
Jinn have skin the color of old parchment or
coal, and hair of any and all colors imaginable;
sometimes all at once, and usually worn long
and braided, bound with hoops and pins. Their
skins appear to be covered in tattoos. They
are, in actuality, eldritch writings recording
the mad murmurs of the elder gods given
a physical pallet. These writings tell the
history of the pre-world before the gods
fell into slumber, and if all the writings
could be collected and codified, would tell
the world’s story from creation to today.
When a Jinn dies, his words vanish, lost
until another Jinn is born. Some say a
Jinn’s beauty or ugliness stems from
what is written upon his skin. Some of
the things scribed across their bodies are
the terrible imaginings of cosmic entities,
gibbered and chattered during the prehistory
of the universe.
All Jinn are born with a single horn growing
from a random location on their head. No Jinn will
ever have the same type of horn on the same location.
While two Jinn may have a horn jutting from the
center of their forehead, one might resemble the
thick horn of a rhinoceros and the other, the sharp,
curling horn of an ibex. Twins share the same horn
and must be broken apart at birth; the Jinn with
more horn is honored and considered the elder child.
Jinn are said to grow from their horns, and many take great care in
ornamenting them with rings, jewel inlays, piercings, or gold caps. Wisps

63
of black smoke issue from their mouths when they speak; above their head burns a small, perpetual
flame which gives off no heat, but changes colors, as do their eyes, depending on their mood
(blue for extreme elation, black for hate, red for rage, and green for all other emotions). Jinn vary
in height, from 1.25–2.13 meters, and weigh anywhere between 35–90 kilograms. One notable
oddity of the Jinn is that their shadow is only cast in moonlight and seems to move independently.
Personality:
The Jinn live and speak as if in a lucid dream. When expressing themselves, they will sometimes
trail off a sentence into a smile and a hand flourish assuming the other knows what they mean, or
begin a conversation with the end of a thought as if they have already spoken the beginning. To
the outside world, they may seem mad, as they mumble, giggle, whimper, cry, or dance without
provocation; but to a Jinn, the world is an ever-shifting realm of colorful smoke and disjointed
harmonies. Most Jinn try to accommodate the younger races and speak in a coherent but often
cryptic manner, but some simply don’t bother to fit in.
The Jinn enjoy dancing, singing, and any form of creation that requires an expression of the
soul. Even bad performances are something appreciated by the Jinn who find valid enjoyment in
a perfectly executed dance or the wailing of a newborn child. The Jinn will watch with the same
fascination the slow torture and execution of a thief or the lovemaking of a couple in a spring rain.
Racial Abilities
Child of Fire and Ash
The Jinn are ever-changing creatures of fire, smoke, and possibility. The Hero builds a large fire
and lays in it telling the story of the new person that she will become. The fire will not burn her, and
as she dozes off to sleep, she slowly changes into the person she dreams of. The metamorphosis takes
a month. During that time, the Hero may rearrange her Attribute points into a new configuration.
At the end of the month, the fire will die down; from the ashes, the new Hero will emerge. The
Hero still looks the same, physically, but her Attributes will change and, sometimes, her personality.
The Hero may do this three times during her lifetime. After the third change her Attributes
are set forever. When changing Attributes, the Hero simply switches the numbers between the
Attributes. The numbers may only be moved or switched, but the total may never change.
Example: A Hero lays down in a lonely desert cave and sleeps.
+2 +1 +3 +0 -1 +0 +0 +0 +0 +4
During his slumber, his body and soul shift and morph to better suit the Hero’s ideas and
dreams.
When the Hero awakens, he is a new person; changed physically and mentally. His new
configuration looks like:
+0 +0 +0 -1 +3 +2 +1 +0 +4 +0
The compassionate magic-user has changed into a bloodthirsty warrior.
Metal Allergy
Because of their mercurial nature, the Jinn’s body is disrupted by orichalcum and iron metals.
The touch of these metals will stop Jinn from changing shape or revert them back if they are
already in another form, and weapons made of the substance will do additional damage as if it was
a Strength 5 poison.
Soul Names
As the eldest of races, the Jinn were given secret names at the world’s beginning. These names
hold power over their personal reality. Because of this, the Jinn hide their true names and take
personal monikers or epithets that describe them but give away nothing.
A person who knows the personal name of a Jinn can manipulate them in ways that no other
being can. The speaker of the name can lower one Attribute by 5 points for a number of rounds
equal to their WIL (minimum of one round). The Jinn must hear his name being said and, once he
64
The Guide of Heroes
does, he is vulnerable. This may be done once a week.
Because the name is tied to the magic of the world the Jinn may use it to alter reality in his favor.
Once per week, the Jinn may call his name and do the impossible. When this is done the Jinn adds
2D20 + WIL to any one roll or to a damage rating (DR). This is very taxing and once done the Jinn
must rest for 7 days – CON (minimum of one day).If the Hero resists the slumber he takes a -2
penalty to all actions for each day he has not rested.
Example: A Hero who would sleep for 5 days decides that it is more important to keep going
and complete the task at hand. He would suffer a -10 penalty. If he rested for one day he would
have a -8 penalty.
Once his name is invoked, the world around the Jinn becomes overly saturated with colors,
making the mundane more vivid and sounds exceptionally clear and precise, allowing everyone to
see the world the way the Jinn do. During his time of rest, the Jinn will become cold and lifeless,
his skin becoming the color of gray ash.
Chaos Speech
The Jinn speak with other Jinn in a “speech” that is incomprehensible to others. The Jinn
can communicate complex ideas and have whole conversations that seem chaotic and nonsensical.
By using a combination of words, the colors of the environment around them, smells wafting
through the air, and the sounds in the background, a Jinn can illustrate and convey ideas. No other
race can understand the language unless they are suffering from dementia, inebriated, or at the
climax of ecstasy. The speech takes as long as normal conversation to convey an idea but cannot be
understood and sounds like gibberish accompanied with senseless movements.
Mercurial Nature
The Jinn, Children of Chaos, are in a constant state of flux. They may shape-change once per
day into any living creature as small as a mouse up to their normal size. They may keep the form
until the rising or setting of the sun (This is not a set 12-hour period, but a literal setting or rising
of the sun. If a Jinn takes a new shape an hour before dawn he may hold that shape for an hour,
conversely if he waits an hour and takes a new shape after the sunrise he may hold that shape until
the sun sets.) The Jinn may shift back to his natural state at will. The only tell that the new shape
will have is that its eyes will always be green. The Jinn will have only the most basic natural abilities
of the animal and all are subject to the GM’s approval.
As a drawback of their mercurial natures, the Jinn are susceptible to strong magics and magical
fields. Magic directed at the Jinn, such as an attack with a total effect of 13 (the DoD of the spell
being cast) or greater, may activate the effect.
Example: A caster holding the Jinn in place using a spell that has a total level of 15 would
activate the mercurial nature while a spell level of 8 would not.
When strong magics act upon the Hero, they must make a WIL roll with a DoD equal to the
amount over 13.
Example: A Hero is struck by a mage’s level15 bolt of lightning. After the Hero takes the
damage he must then make a WIL roll with a DoD-2.
Magic fields such as Stone Circles and Vril lines will also have the same effect if their level is 3
levels above the Jinn’s CON attribute. Again the Hero must make a WIL roll with the DoD being
the difference between his CON and the magic field’s level.
A Jinn with a CON of +0 could stand in a Stone Circle of level 1–2 without effect but if
the Circle is level 3 or greater he would be affected and have to make a WIL roll with a DoD-0.
If the Stone Circle was level 5 then the roll would have a DoD-2.
The Jinn’s body suffers instability and alters randomly.

Benefit: The Hero may ask the universe, the trees, the river, a stone statue, etc. (i.e., the GM) a

a number of minutes (for a simple unobtrusive question) up to a few days (for an Earth-shattering
inquiry). The answer must be truthful but may be shrouded in allegories. The Hero may do this a
number of times per game equal to his CHA (minimum of once).

71
Lemurians
(Ape-men, the Tree Folk, The Lawgiver’s Children, Lemures)
The Lemurians are far older than the Atlanteans, a fellow root race, but born an epoch before,
and they have essentially ruled the world in their own time. Although this era is long past them, the
Lemurians have never looked back, nor bemoaned their fate. They instead choose to look inward
and onward, shaping their own individual destinies. In this way, they are perhaps most akin to the
Humans, and enjoy their company more than that of any race outside of their own.
The Lemurians are noted for being rather reserved emotionally and even peaceful, but they
have engaged in, and sometimes still do engage in, actions that others might deem unseemly. For
example, Lemurians are known for riding rhinoceroses into battle, but have not done much to
ensure the safety of the species, even as their numbers dwindled, turning instead to technological
means to reanimate or replace their steeds. Lemurians are also known for keeping Nethermen as
slaves, and while many would see the Nethermen as perhaps most deserving of this fate, there are
some who oppose slavery in all forms. The Lemurians care not for what others think.
This seemingly unconcerned selfishness somewhat explains the fact that most currently seclude
themselves in the large tree-cities in the mountains of Lemuria to study and philosophize. Knowing
it to be one of the most secure locations in the world, various other races have, at times, sought
refuge there and been coldly refused, no matter how urgent the plea. Scholars, Heroes, and those
who are of use or interest to the Lemurians might enter, but simple need is no concern of theirs. It
was others that ruined the world, and those others can deal with it.
The great Ape-men stand over 1.8 meters tall and weigh between 90–136 kilograms. Most have
dark brown or black fur with some being born with gold or white fur. Most common eye colors are
black or brown, but hazel and blue are not uncommon.
Personality:
The Lemurians are very stoic and reserved when dealing with others not of their race. Most
blame the Atlanteans and their foes, the Anunnaki, for the problems that the world faces. Though
peaceful by nature, the Lemurians know the ways of war and have spent much time in recent years
creating weapons that keep their home island and colonies safe. Because their technology is so
sought after, the Lemurians are very guarded about with whom they share their secrets.
Racial Abilities
Primordial Might
The Hero can perform great feats of strength. This allows the Hero to make a roll involving
Strength with a bonus equal to five times their WIL (minimum of +5). The Hero may perform a
number of such feats per game session equal to his CON (minimum of once).
Masters of the Natural World

The Lemurians are in complete balance with the natural world. They do not have a supernatural
advantage, but an exact understanding of how the natural world works and the harmony between
earth, air, fire, and water. To this end, when in a natural setting, Lemurians have an advantage
and excel at their chosen vocation. At character creation, Lemurians choose an Attribute (CR and
MR included) that is attuned to the world. When in a natural environment of his choosing, the
Attribute may be doubled. This can only be used once a day and requires the Hero to focus and
concentrate for one round. Once the Lemurian has centered himself, the Attribute is doubled for
the entire scene. The environment is chosen at character creation and is usually the area or locale
the Lemurian was raised in. Desert, ocean, forest, savannah, or tundra are all acceptable locations.
As an added bonus, the Hero understands how plants grow and may grow them twice as fast
and four times as large (or small). The Hero may add double his INT (minimum of +2) to any Lore
(Agriculture) roll.
When crafting or working with wood, the Hero may add double his INT (minimum of +2).
When climbing, jumping, running, or evading in the Lemurian’s chosen environment , the
72
The Guide of Heroes
Hero gains a bonus equal to his INT (minimum of +2).
The Flow of Heavenly Water

Lemurians may redirect or change the flow of Vril energy along what they call “Heavenly
Water.” They may redirect a ley line by a number of meters equal to 100x their INT. It takes 5
hours per 100 meters moved and requires nothing more than the movement of rocks, pruning of
trees, and damming or releasing the flow of springs and rivers. Once done the ley line will be moved
where the Hero sees fit.
Logic of the Lawgiver

Precepts handed down from the Lawgiver are ingrained into the thinking of every Lemurian. The
laws of science and the natural world allow the Lemurian to use his prodigious intellect to overcome
any type of problem. The Hero may add double his INT to a number of rolls per adventure equal
to his WIL (minimum of once per game).

The Guide of Heroes
Nethermen
(Brutes, Throwback , the Misshapen)
Nethermen are not a true race of beings, but the sad product of the Atlanteans’ first try at creating
a nation of slaves and soldiers for their conquest and wars. The Atlanteans intended to create a strong,
hardy warrior that could be easily manipulated, but what they got was a bloodthirsty brute that was
immune to most of their magics. Frightened by the monstrosities they created, all were rounded up and
marched onto a great barge, hopefully to be lost at sea.
Nethermen have a fairly short lifespan. As they are not a true species, over half of both the males
and females are sterile, unable to reproduce. For this reason the Nethermen, like the Andamen, seem
slowly headed toward extinction. Despite this, a number of nomadic clans still exist in various regions
throughout the known world. All are war-like in nature, though not all are hostile to Humans. For this
reason, Nethermen are tolerated in many areas of Human civilization.
Though most Nethermen clans are nomadic by nature, some few build permanent villages and
settlements in certain wilderness areas. Such villages tend to be small and crudely built, often having
stockade or earthen walls surrounding them. Those Nethermen who choose to live amongst Humans are
most often employed as mercenary soldiers, caravan guards, or general “muscle.”
Nethermen basically resemble humans in stature, but have a tendency to be more muscular and less
agile than their human cousins. They stand taller than men and have heavily scarred and mottled brown
skin. The deep-set eyes are startling to look upon and have “reverse” eye coloration (black with white
pupils).
Personality:
In a word, Nethermen are psychopaths. They are incapable of feeling emotions such as fear or
love, although they are experts at feigning both to get their ways, and with a short lifespan — both
individually and as a race — they are prone to fulfilling their own needs and desires with little concern
for what others might want or need. Their ruthless nature makes them excellent at many tasks, and many
could easily be great generals or leaders if they so choose; however, the fact that they care for themselves
above all else could easily mean that they would march their army into the sea if it suited their whims.
Racial Abilities
Magic Immunity
Because of the alchemical process used to make the Nethermen, they have a slight immunity to magic
effects. A Netherman may add double his CON (minimum of +2) to any resistance roll pertaining to
magical effects, and damage done by magic (and magic weapons) is reduced by twice the CON of the
Netherman Hero (only the magical enhancement of the weapon and not the base DR of the weapon).
Eaters of the Dead

Nethermen may eat the heart of the dead and gain an aspect or ability possessed by them. The being
must have been dead for no longer than a few hours, but once the heart is eaten, the Netherman may
gain one of their innate abilities at a level equal to their CON. It usually takes 5 minutes per point of
Con of the victim to eat completely.
The Hero may use the ability a number of times equal to his CON (minimum of 1) before it is
expended from his system. Any vice, physical malady, or physical/mental disadvantage that the dead
may have had is also transferred.
Example: A Netherman (CON +2) eats the heart of a dead Atlantean and gains the ability of
Vril Master at +2 but since the Atlantean was a drunk the Netherman gains that vice as well. On
another occasion, he eats a Triton’s heart and gains the ability to breathe underwater but on land
he suffocates without the special apparatus. In both cases the Hero would have access to the ability
for 2 uses.
Too Dumb to Die

The brutish Nethermen blaze with life when their ire is up, fighting beyond the point of death if
need be. A Hero may automatically succeed at all Death Saves and ignore critical hit penalties for a
number of rounds equal to three times his CON (minimum of 3). The Hero must still make the initial
rolls but may ignore the results for the allotted amount of time. The Hero may use this ability once per
adventure for every -1 he has in INT (minimum of once per adventure).

New Talent!
Rage
The ability to channel one’s anger in combat.
Benefit: The Hero may choose to take a penalty on her attack roll to increase the damage dealt.
For each -1 penalty taken to the attack roll, +1 DR is dealt on a successful hit (up to a maximum
of twice his CON). The player must state his intention to use this talent before the roll to attack.
84
The Guide of Heroes

85
New Talents
The following new talents can be purchased by other races or professions as if they are out of
profession skills costing 10 points at character creation or as an improvement with Renown. When
purchased with Renown the Hero may only do so once he has 100 Renown.
Animal Magnetism
Andamen
You have a natural way with animals.
Benefit: The Hero adds triple his CHA (minimum of +3) to rolls pertaining to Animal Handling
and Ride Skills. If you encounter an animal and are not actively in combat, you may attempt to
soothe the creature by making a successful CHA check. On a partial success, the animal will simply
retreat by the quickest means possible. A full success means the animal in question considers you to
be friendly and may aid you in some manner.
Adrenaline Rush
Human
You are able to summon an inner strength and energy when the going gets tough.
Benefit: Once per day the Hero may add triple his CON (minimum of +3) to his STR or SPD
(chosen at character creation), suffering a -2 penalty to DEX. The effects of Adrenaline Rush last
for a number of minutes equal to his CON (minimum of 1 minute).
Natural Remedy
Lemurian
The knowledge of various folk remedies and charms were passed down to you by your elders.
Benefit: By spending 10-INT hours gathering common ingredients and carefully preparing them,
the Hero may make a potion, tincture, or salve that will cure a specific disease, cure a specific
poison, or make a medicine to heal Hit Point damage. When used to cure diseases and poison,
the remedy will add double the Hero’s INT (minimum of +2) to the patient’s CON for resistance
purposes. When used to make a healing salve/potion the Hero can make one dose in the allotted
time that heals a number of Hit Points equal to double the Hero’s INT (minimum of +2).
Serpent Feint
Ahl-At-Rab
The Hero maneuvers in such a way that he draws his opponents into a compromising and less
defensible position.
Benefit: The Hero makes a rolling with his CR+weapon Skill verses a DoD equal to his opponent’s
PER+Evade or Parry (whichever is being used at the time) Skill. If successful he reduces the
opponent’s total Skill Rating by half for a single attack. The attack may be used immediately or
saved for a future attack during the same combat.
Example: A Hero with a melee Skill of +7 and a CR +5 (total Skill Rating of +12) is
fighting an opponent with a PER +1, Evade +8, and DEX +4. The he makes a Serpent Feint
roll versus his opponent’s PER+Evade Skill, total DoD -9. He gets a success and can reduce his
opponent’s Evade Skill Rating from a -12 to a -6.
Signs and Portents

Jinn
The hero has access to a tradition beyond his starting philosophies
Benefit: The Hero may ask the universe, the trees, the river, a stone statue, etc. (i.e., the GM) a
question that the GM must answer honestly. To get the answer the Hero must pray or meditate for
a number of minutes (for a simple unobtrusive question) up to a few days (for an Earth-shattering
inquiry). The answer must be truthful but may be shrouded in allegories. The Hero may do this a
number of times per game equal to his CHA (minimum of once).
86
The Guide of Heroes
Rage
Nethermen
The ability to channel one’s anger in combat.
Benefit: The Hero may choose to take a penalty on her attack roll to increase the damage dealt.
For each -1 penalty taken to the attack roll, +1 DR is dealt on a successful hit (up to a maximum
of twice his CON). The player must state his intention to use this talent before the roll to attack.
Tactician
Atlantean
You have studied the tactics and strategies of the battlefield.
Benefit: The Hero receives his PER (minimum of +1) to augment his side’s Initiative rolls. If the
Hero spends an action for the round he may also coordinate attacks against a foe and all under
his command (using the Influence-Command Skill with a DoD equal to the target’s Evade Skill
Rating) receive a +2 to all attack or defense rolls (chosen when the talent is used and may be
changed from round to round). All under his command must go on his Initiative or after in order
to gain this bonus.

Cultural Packages
Not all individuals in a race are the same. They come from many different cultures and creeds
throughout the world. The Cultural Package determines what skills your Hero knows, depending
on the land he comes from. All the skills listed with the package are common to Heroes from that
particular land.

dot the swamps and lowlands.
Europa
A vast but thinly populated land, Europa comprises a variety of
terrains and climates. The center of the continent is dominated by a
powerful magician known as the Erlking and many of its coasts have
long histories influenced by Atlantean rule. As a result, most of the
Europan civilizations are war-like, hardened by histories of battle.
Gondwana
Though the center of Gondwana is still a land of fierce jungles
and impassable mountains, the lush coasts and plains of this land
are the birthplaces of civilizations and empires. Much of the world’s
population, culture, and history touch Gondwana. All the races are
represented amongst its nations and tribes, and its major cities are
home to many wise and powerful individuals.
Jambu
Largely considered unexplored by modern scholars, great empires
and civilizations remain in the lands of Jambu. The Annunaki once
held sway over much of this land and are still revered in some
nations. The great mountains of central Jambu divide the continent
into separate regions and inhibit travel amongst its people, but many
great sailors ply its coastal waters and the ruins of the past watch its
haunted shores.
