SAVAGE DOOM v0.

4
A Savage Worlds fan toolkit
by Okreya
Plot
By the mid 22nd century, the Union Aerospace Corporation developed various research bases on Mars and
its two moons, Phobos and Deimos. While experimenting with teleportation technology, an anomaly occurs and the
bases are quickly overrun by monsters. Most of the personnel were killed or turned into zombies. You play a survivor
of the invasion, either a UAC Marine or another UAC personnel. You must fight a demonic invasion while finding a
way off Mars.

Setting Rules
Savage Doom uses the following Setting Rules: ​ Blood and Guts, Critical Failures, Fanatics, Joker’s Wild​
.
In addition, Players can ignore all non-Legendary Rank qualifications for Edges.

Race
Players are Human personnel on the Mars base and start with one free edge. In addition, players start with a d4 in
four of the following skills: Fighting, Healing, Knowledge (any), Notice, Repair, Shooting, Stealth, Throwing. Players
also receive the Major Hindrance: Vow (Major) to follow the protocols and procedures of the UAC. This does not
count towards the hindrance total.

Skills
As SWD. While skills like Boating and Gambling are unlikely to be used on a Martian Research base, there is no reason
to exclude them from play. Knowledge (Computers) can be used by players who wish to hack into UAC networks or
perform security overrides.

Excluded Edges
All Power Edges, Adept, Champion, Gadgeteer, Holy/Unholy Warrior, Mentalist, Wizard

Modified Edges
Mr Fix It
Requirements:​ Novice, Smarts d10, Repair d8, Knowledge (Engineering) d8
This edge functions identical to the one in SWD.

New Edges
Surgeon
Requirements: ​ Novice, Healer, Healing d8, Knowledge (Medicine) d8
This character ignores wound penalties for the victim when healing someone during the “Golden Hour”

Gear
While currency exists in game, it is largely useless in the face of a demonic invasion. Players are assigned (or have easy
access to) Light Armor, a Pistol (with one extra magazine), a PDA, and a flashlight. All other equipment must be found
on base. Armor scavenged from dead UAC personnel is usually too damaged to be worn. Ammo found in lockers or
crates typically have 1d6 magazines of a specific type. Enemies with weapons typically have an extra magazine.
Armors
Light Armor​ : A combination of lightweight materials form this sealed suit of security armor. Nicknamed “Mall cop”
armor by the UAC Marines due to its heavy use amongst Earth police forces . A radio comes attached to the helmet.
The helmet also has advanced air filtration systems, allowing the user to breathe in dangerous environments.
Medium Armor​ : A moderate improvement on Light Armor, this combat suit is standard of Earth's military forces.
Higher ranked Marines wear this armor, and usually when guarding security checkpoints, as it is seen as excessive by
UAC personnel.
Heavy Armor​ : A major upgrade to Medium Armor, this armor is only worn by UAC special forces. It comes equipped
with Active Night Vision.
Mega Armor​ : The ultimate evolution of mobile infantry armor, Mega Armor is an experimental hard suit designed by
the UAC. Only a few were manufactured for testing. In addition to all the perks of previous armors, the suit is
fireproof. (granting its armor bonus against fire based weapons) The user takes no falling damage and can only be
harmed by Heavy Weapons.

Weapons
Pistol​
: The standard pistol used by the UAC. Semi-automatic with armor piercing rounds.
Shotgun​ : A pump action shotgun favored by UAC Marines for its lightweight design and effective stopping power in
close quarters.
Super Shotgun​ : A powerful double barrel shotgun, this thing can take down elephants.
Assault Rifle​ : Iconic UAC weapon. Reliable, versatile, lightweight, and easy to use.
Chaingun​ : A man portable turret capable of heavy damage. Effective at laying down suppressive fire.
Grenade​ : Anti-personnel fragmentation grenades. Contain markers that UAC helmets detect to prevent friendly fire.
Rocket Launcher​ : Designed for use against vehicles and armored infantry. Carries five rockets, which makes up the
bulk of its weight.
Plasma Gun​ : An experimental rifle that fires balls of blue concentrated plasma at the enemy.
BFG 9000​ : This experimental plasma cannon is perhaps the most dangerous man portable device developed by the
UAC. Anything in the path of the shot takes damage.
Flashlight:​ The near-indestructible flashlight carried by UAC personnel can be used as a baton in a pinch.
Chainsaw​ : Due to a shipping mix up, chainsaws were sent to a planet with no trees. A lightweight design with saw
blades that could cut through metal pipes, a two year continuous use battery, and safety features to protect the user
from self injury.

Environments
UAC research bases on Mars mimic an environment similar to Earth: air, gravity, and temperatures are regulated by
various machines and systems. Each base has at least a Hangar, an Armory, a Med Bay, a Power Station, and a Lab.
Hangar​ : A UAC Hangar also includes refueling stations, workshops, warehouses and non-military quarters.
Players who search Hangars can often find food, ammo and miscellaneous gear. Players can also repair any gear at a
Hangar.
Armory​ : An armory is often the command center for the UAC Marines and also includes sleeping quarters
and a mess hall. Various weapons, armor, and ammo can be found in an Armory, usually in storage. Energy weapons
and advanced tech are usually stored in Labs.
Med Bay​ : UAC Med Bays are stocked with advanced medical equipment and supplies. Players doing Healing
checks in a powered Med Bay are not subject to the Golden Hour rule. Damaged or lost limbs can also be repaired or
replaced in a Med Bay, although the Healing check is done at a -2 and takes four hours.
Power Station​ : UAC Power Stations are integral to the entire base. They function as energy sources and
recycling centers. They are also the most common area to find Nukage. Energy ammo are often produced in Power
Stations and shipped to Labs.
Lab​: A Lab is an umbrella term for any section of the base devoted to research and development of new
technologies. The anomaly that led to the invasion started in a Lab. Labs generally have high security and often
Energy weapons, advanced Armor and gear can be found in lab storage units.
Other Dimension​ : Nicknamed Hell, the home realm of the Demons. This place is the total opposite of Mars,
laden with heat dangers, nukage, and demonic motifs. The landscape seems to have morphic qualities. Personnel
travelling in the Other Dimension do not suffer from Fatigue or Exhaustion from hunger, thirst, or sleep.

Hazards
Despite all safety protocols, Mars can be a dangerous place. Below are some of the common dangers.
Air​: Due to rapid advancements in terraforming technologies, both Mars and its two moons have breathable
air similar to high altitude environments on Earth. Players who find themselves on the surface without a sealed suit of
armor (or some form of breathing apparatus) must make a Vigor check or gain Fatigue. This Fatigue lasts until an hour
after the player finds a source of oxygen or after 2d6 days where the player acclimates to the environment.
Cold​ : Despite having air, the surface of Mars can be a cold place, especially at night. Anyone caught in the
cold makes a Vigor check at -3 (SWD p.87). Players in armor ignore the penalty but must still make Vigor checks.
Nukage​ : The runoff from various machines on base emit Low Radiation when players are in contact or
submerged in it (SWD p.89). Radiation Sickness can be cured with a stimpack and a successful Healing check or at a
medical station on base. Nukage in the Other Dimension is similar to nukage on Mars except players that come in
contact also take 1d10 fire damage every round.
Bestiary
