New Fallout Character Options

Before going into the creatures of Fallout 76, this first section has new character options for players of the Fallout RPG.
Fitting with the bestiary theme, these options include a new player race and new character builds that allow NPC followers.
New Character Race

A new race is offered for player characters: the mister handy robot. Because this robot is a very difficult and
complicated character, make sure to have your GM”s permission before you chose to play as one.
Mister Handy Robot

Characteristic Points: 15
Strength: 3 Perception: 2 Endurance: 2 Charisma: 2
Intelligence: 3 Agility: 3 Luck: 1
Special Ability (Mechanical Nature): Mister Handy robots never gain fatigue, and do not need to eat or drink. They are immune
to radiation of all forms and cannot be affected by poison. They cannot use chems or drugs or be healed via the medicine skill.
Instead, their hit points are restored using repair checks. They do not have healing thresholds and do not recover hit points from
resting.
Special Ability (Thrusters): Mister Handy robots have thrusters beneath their frame, that allows them to hover a few feet above
the ground. While not allowing true flight, the robots do not trigger ground-based traps such as land mines, nor are they penalized
by difficult terrain of any kind.
Special Ability (Three Arms): Mister Handy robots have three grasping arms as part of their body. These arms can be used for
any purpose a normal hand can, including using multiple weapons. However, they can only dual-wield two weapons in a single
action.
Special Ability (Base Equipment): Mister Handy robots can only wear scrapper armor. They can wear three equipment belts
and a backpack, as normal. They have a default natural armor that gives them +7 damage resistance and -2 defense. This natural
armor cannot be removed. In addition, they use the Heavy Unarmed weapon profile for their unarmed attacks instead of the
normal unarmed profile.
Special Ability (No Backgrounds): Mister Handies do not choose a background at character creation. They do still choose a Tag
skill.
Description: Mister Handy robots are some of the most common robots in America. Designed as servants, butlers, messengers,
and more, their multiple armed frames allow them to provide a wide variety of services for their masters. Since the bombs fell,
many Mister Handies continued to fulfill their functions in the post-apocalyptic world. They resorted to their core programming,
never thinking for themselves, and instead provided automated functions as if the world never ended. Others, however, decided to
become their own person and live their own life, unrestricted by programming. These robots chose their own destiny in the
wastes, often gathering with other survivors.

New Perks: Misty Handy Perks

These are a special selection of perks that allow the customization of a Mister Handy robot. It includes common
integrated weapon arms that they can use with great proficiency.
Automated Repair
Requirements: Mister Handy, Intelligence 5, Fortitude 5, Repair 4, Science 4
Benefit: You have upgraded yourself with self-repair protocols. You recover hit points on a rest, just like any other character. In
addition, checks to heal you with a repair kit gain a +10 bonus.
Combat Protocol
Requirements: Mister Handy, Perception 7, Agility 7
Benefit: You have upgraded yourself with the combat protocols common with the Mister Gutsy combat models. You can use
dual-wield actions to use up to three weapons with a single action. In addition, when you are hit with a ranged attack, you can
make an opportunity attack back at that target with any pistol, melee, or integrated weapon you possess.
Integrated Weapons
Requirements: Mister Handy, Repair 4 + other requirements
Benefit: You have created an integrated weapon attachment. This weapon replaces one of your arms. Once you unlock this perk,
you can spend 1 hour in a work bench crafting this arm. After creation, you can spend 1 minute replacing one of your hands with
this weapon. You can spend 1 minute replacing your weapon arm with a hand again, as necessary.
Every time you choose this perk, you choose a weapon you qualify for from the list below. There are four possible
integrated weapons to fit across your three arms. However, the more integrated weapons you have mounted, the fewer free hands
you have available. If you have two integrated weapons, you only have one free hand and can only carry items or perform tasks
that are one-handed. If you have three integrated weapons, you have no hands and cannot carry, use, or move objects. In addition,
when you have no spare hands, you must have someone else help you swap between an integrated weapon and a spare hand.
All the integrated weapons are equivalent to a common weapon, with slight modifications. Not matter how many arms
the equivalent weapon requires, an integrated weapon replaces only a single arm. If you are level 9 or less, your integrated
weapons are tier 1. If you are level 10, your integrated weapons are tier 2. If you are level 20, your integrated weapons are tier 3.
Integrated weapons do not support weapon upgrades.

only usable once per 3 rounds

New Perks: Companion Perks

These new perks for the Fallout roleplaying game allow for your characters to recruit companions to follow them
around. They add to the overall dynamic of a Fallout party by adding NPCs to the party that are controlled by one of the players.
These are not suitable for every campaign and group, and always make sure it is okay with your Game Master before taking one
of these perks.
These perks trees are not mutually exclusive. This means you can have both a follower and a dog companion, for
instance. You cannot pick multiples of either one, however. Thus, you cannot have two followers or two dogs.
New Recruit Perks

The new recruit perk allows you to attract followers that will accompany you on your adventures. This is in addition to
any fellow party members that journey with you. This follower is, in different degrees, controlled by both you and the GM. These
perks allow charisma characters to have a unique contribution to an adventuring party by grooming a follower to fill the missing
roles that the company needs.
New Recruit
Requirements: Human, Charisma 6, Level 5 or Higher
Benefit: You have the ability to recruit a local to join you on your adventures. This local is an inexperienced civilian who is
attracted to your charisma and believes following you will bring them adventure, fortune, and greatness. This civilian has the
basic statistics described below and does not have any other equipment or possessions. However, upon being recruited, the player
chooses a Tag skill for them to possess. They gain all the benefits for the Tag skill.
The follower is statistically designed and maintained by the player who recruits them. The recruiting player also
controls them in combat encounters, where they roll their own initiative. However, the GM roleplays the characters and
determines their personality and backstory. The player does gain some input on the identity of their follower, and gains up to
three vetoes on personality quirks determined by the GM. These vetoes can be on one or more of the following: name, gender,
backstory, motivation, or personality. Once a detail has been vetoed, the GM must think of a new one. If that option becomes
vetoed again, the GM must think of another one until all the vetoes have been used or the player is satisfied with all the recruit
options.
Followers rely heavily on being provided gear by their attached player. Without it, they will quickly die in the wastes.
In addition, after taking this perk, the player qualifies for an array of different perks that will expand their follower’s skill set and
make them more formidable in and out of battle. This customization allows them to be build this secondary character however
they want. Other than these perks, the secondary character does not level up or gain characteristic points. They do count as an
additional character for the purposes of rewarding combat experience, however.
As the recruit progresses with training perks, the player controlling them will need to rework their statistics as normal
for a player character. If the follower is killed or dismissed, the player can spend time in town recruiting a new one. If they
already have a training perks fleshing out a follower, any followers they recruit automatically gain the benefits of the training
perks. Story wise, they are assumed to already have those skills. The player must make all the decisions involved in developing
the new character when they hire them, including picking their starting Tag skill.

outside of encounters. The dog roles its own initiative in combat. As an animal, the dog cannot use any gear, except for scrapper
armor. If the dog dies, you can replace it by spending 2 day cycles recruiting another dog. This dog may be a sibling, mate, or
offspring of your old dog, should you choose.
The dog does not increase in level or gain characteristic points. However, after taking this perk, the player qualifies for
an array of different perks that will expand their canine’s skill set and make them more formidable in and out of battle. Any
replacement dogs’ benefit from all of the characters canine training perks. As the dog progresses with new canine training perks,

Bestiary 76
This section contains a wide variety of new creatures to include in your Fallout RPG campaigns. Most of them are
derived from the Fallout 76 video game.
New Animals and Insects

The post-apocalypse has a wide variety of mutated wildlife. These mutated creatures can come from all manner of
source creatures, both small and large, across all the animal kingdom. This section introduces many new mutants found in rural
West Virginia, featured in the game Fallout 76. Most of these creatures are very generic, however, and can be used in many
different biomes in the post-apocalyptic America.
Critter
Critter is a generic term for any mutated small animal. These animals have been transformed to have strange or
monstrous features, but more or less live like they would back before the bombs. Critters include rabbits, frogs, opossums,
racoons, beavers, and more. Critters are mostly harmless to humans and similar sized beings and are likely to run when
approached. Despite or because of their lack of threat, critters are frequently hunted for food.

effects any further. Mutants are immune to radiation damage, never keep track of gathering radiation, and do not die from
radiation exposure.

Honey Beast and Bee Swarm

Most bees have retained their original size and lifestyle. They form nests around a queen and can form a defensive
swarm when their nest is threatened. Anyone trying to plunder honey from these nests will have to contend with the swarm. In
the meantime, some bees have been dramatically changed, bloating in size, becoming honey beasts.
Honey beasts are massive bees that have an entire hive of ordinary bees growing out of their thorax. When threatened,
the honey beast will deploy a legion of bees to defend itself and thwart attackers. The overgrown hive, mounds of honey, and raw
size of the honey beast prevents them from flying, but they remain terrifying ground-based predators.

instantly gain another bee swarm within their innards that they can release.

dangerous marsh monster, the radtoad is a carnivorous menace that hosts broods of new radtoads. It can use their eggs

Ticks
The common tick is another variety of insect that has grown tremendous with exposure to radiation. No longer sneaky
parasites, these large ticks are aggressive predators that forcibly bite any potential prey to absorb their blood. They gain up
against enemies in small packs that work to pin a target and drain them. Ticks are known disease carriers, that inflict micro
parasites into your body while sucking you dry. If the drain doesn’t kill you, the disease might snure you die.
Wretched ticks are thus known for their ruthless hunting style, moving forward through the bushes and undergrowth
before pouncing on their prey. They are sneaky and cunning insectoid predators, and frequently do not stop biting their prey until
either they are full of blood or are killed.
The vile ticks are especially mutated vermin with added biological traits. They consume a vast amount of blood with
every bite, and their poison is especially virulent, seeming uncurable at times. In addition, they have the aggressive move of
spitting consumed blood back at their victims, used in a last resort to kill attackers or ensure they get a corpse to feats upon.

New Robots
Many robots remain after the fall, surviving in the world and continuing their functions the best they can after the
collapse of social order.
Liberator
Before the bombs fell, as the war waged on, Communist China released swarms of liberator robots on America. These
robots preceded an invasion that never came, with instructions to kill any hostile they saw. They were not especially great
combatants, little threat to a trained soldier, but in packs they ruthless cut down all civilians that came across. In large enough
groups, they could even take down a US soldier in powered armor. Because the bombs fell before the Chinese invasion began,
these liberators never got to work with their allied soldiers. However, they remained many years after the war, remaining a threat
and nuisance to anyone trying to rebuilt their life in a post-apocalyptic society.

Cryptids
Cryptids are mythological creatures that belong to folklore and have not yet been proven to exist. However, these
creatures are real, residing in the depths of the wilds of America. Most of them lack the supernatural nature attributed to them and
are instead the result of mutation and human experimentation. Cryptids tend to be rare and extremely dangerous aberrations.
Grafton Monster
Once a West Virginia myth associated with the town of Grafton, the name of the Grafton Monster became attributed to
a genetically modified creature that escaped containment. These muscular monsters have spread throughout the region,
reproducing in unknown ways, but are both rare and noticeable threats. These oversized brutes have great anger and aggressive
tendencies, and often go on rampages when they come across others. Even if you escape their fists, you must contend with their
glands that can release a concentrated spray of acidic oil.

Snallygaster
The snallygaster was created by combining many different species in an FEV vat and seeing what came out. The result
was a horror of great ugliness and sadistic temperament. The snallygaster is an ugly, predatory aberration that is often found in
the most irradiated areas and ruined cities. They are usually found individually or in pairs, and even those small organizations can
threaten many survivors.
Because of the wild mutations of the snallygaster, there is known to be variations. The most dangerous is known as the
bloody snallygaster, known for their coloration and their tendency to drain victims of their blood. These deadly variation are
generally only found in the most hostile and radioactive environments, where they battle for survival with other super mutated
creatures, such as deathskull radscorpions, super mutants, and death claws.

Wendigo
Wendigo derived from people that were both mutants and cannibals. Their mutations eventually turned them into lanky,
monstrous humanoids. Wendigos have great speed and agility and tend to terrorize their foes before cornering and consuming
them. They rely greatly on stealth while hunting. Wendigo generally lair in caves, ruins, and trees, hunting for flesh in a radius
from their home. They prefer to wait until night.
Wendigo progenitors are the oldest of their kind, ancient former humans that claim the largest hunting grounds.
Progenitors always have a close connection with feral ghouls, commanding thus creatures and using them as attack dogs. Their
nests are usually filled with ghouls, and they constantly call for more to assist them when in battle. While usually not intelligent,
the ghouls recognize the wendigo as an alpha beast and a provider of food.

Mole Miners
Another form of mutant human, mole miners were once human miners who had mutated and suffered mental
deterioration. Not as mindless as feral ghouls but nowhere near the competence of humans, mole miners live in clusters within
mines and caves, defending their homes from anyone else. Mole miners are hunched, muscular, mutant beings that possess great
resilience and strength. They possess enough intelligence to use weapons and valuable their territories and possessions, as well as
identifying friends versus foes.
Older and stronger mole miners are known as rockbreakers. These are aggressive beings that are on the front lines of
defending their homes. In addition to using shotguns like other mole miners, they utilize specialized spikes gauntlets to aid their
strikes. Even the rockbreakers obey the foremans, however, as the foremans are the leaders of all mole miners. Foremans are
mutants of extreme resilience and strength. They guide other mole miners, while also tending to the mole rats beneath the earth.
Foremans have a close kinship with mole rats, and unleash them in swarms to defend their mountain homes.

Special Ability (Overlord of the Under-Earth): As a minor action, the mole miner foreman can summon 4 mole rats. These
mole rats burrow out of the ground within 6 squares of the mole miner. They act directly after the mole miner. The mole miner
can use this ability any number of times, but they cannot have more than 4 mole rats active at once. Additional mole rats must be
replacing fallen mole rats. If the mole miner has fewer than 180 current hit points, this changes. In this instance, they can up to 8
mole rats at a time. If the mole miner dies, all mole rats instantly burrow away from the battlefield. Do not reward players
experience for these mole rats; they are part of the experience reward of the mole miner.
Special Ability (Tide of Oversized Teeth): When the mole miner foreman takes damage from an attack, all of their active mole
rats can make an instant opportunity attack against an adjacent enemy, with a +4 accuracy bonus. This only occurs once per
round.
Special Ability (Resilience): The mole miner is immune to many adverse conditions, including: Bleed, Blinded, Burning, Slow,
Staggered, Stunned, and Tormented.

The Scorched
The scorched were once the human inhabitants of Appalachia. Rather than dying when the bombs fell, they were
infected by the scorched virus that emanated from the dreaded Scorchbeasts that shared their home. As the disease overtook
them, the residents were transformed into a ghoul-like creature that were linked by a hive mind created by the disease.
The scorched were once people of all walks of life, as their ranks include not only the original inhabitants of the region
but the groups that sprung up after the war and attempted to reclaim the mountains and valleys. Despite the efforts of many
factions to put an end to the scorched plague, all fell before the disease and joined their numbers.
The scorched appear similar to ghouls, with rotting, pink skin, but are noticeably different in that they have green
crystals growing out of their bodies. These crystals are ultracite; a unique compound that forms the foundation of all scorched
lifeforms. In time, all scorched are destined to die as their bodies harden and transforms into a petrified, radioactive curse.
Scorched have some level of old memories, at least in the form that lets them use weapons, tools, and speak. They are
not conversationalists and cannot be reasoned with. They do not engage in real conversation, but instead babble about being part
of the one or one of many.
Scorched
The basic scorched represent civilians or non-combatants who have been turned into a scorched. They have limited
skills and equipment and are not a great threat except in large numbers. They are usually found guarding their old homes from
intruders or roaming the wastes.
Scorched Believers
Scorched believers feel a close connection with the scorchbeasts and tend to follow them wherever they go. They may
travel for weeks without seeing one, but the hive mind helps them track their winged overlords and know what direction to go.
Like other scorched, they are hostile to all other life, and will be especially vigilant in fighting their foes in the presence of a
scorchbeast.
Scorched Champions
Scorched champions are very old scorched who have resisted petrification and become stronger and tougher from the
plague. They are some of the fiercest warriors of the scorched, having survived many years fighting the living and enduring the
plague.
Scorched Conquerors
Scorched conquerors were once heroes and adventurers who opposed the scorched, but eventually fell victim of the
plague. The equipment and latent intelligence of those champions created especially powerful scorched warriors capable of
fighting their former professional rivals.
Scorched Officers
Scorched officers were once military commanders who fell to the virus. Now, they are nodes of leadership for the
scorched armies, able to manipulate and guide other scorched through utilization of the hive mind. Scorched officers are easily
recognized through their military uniforms and equipment.
Scorched Wanderer
Wanderers are common scorched with no connection to a home or place, and simply wander the countryside looking
for victims. They are little more than predatory animals with shotguns, but their willingness to work with other scorched makes
them dangerous.
Scorched Zealot
Zealots are the assault troops of the scorched legions. When the scorchbeasts invade a settlement, they rally their
militant zealots and lead them into battle against the location. Most zealots are pulled from the ranks of soldiers and survivors,
and are cunning warriors. The presence of a scorchbeast makes them even more lethal.

Scorched Special Abilities

If you wish to make encounters with the scorched more memorable, you can give them special abilities to make fights
more dynamic. You can use any of the abilities listed here, all of them, or none of them. You might even give different scorched
types different abilities as needed.
Infectious Touch: As a standard action, the scorched can try and claw an adjacent enemy. They make a melee skill checks versus
the targets defense. If they hit, it deals no damage, but the target must make a DC 10 durability check or contract the scorched
disease.
Radiation Cloud: When the scorched dies, they emit a cloud of radiation. All non-scorched within a burst 1 of the scorched’s
square suffers an attack against them. The attack bonus is ½ the scorched’s level. If it hits, the target suffer 10+ the scorched’s
level radiation damage and must make a DC 10 durability check or contract the scorched disease.
Revive: When the scorched is reduced to 0 hit points, roll a d20. On a 15+, they do not die. They instead fall prone as if they
were dead, but come back to a life with 2x level current hit points.
Power from Death: When a scorched dies, all other scorched within 15 squares gain temporary hit points equal to the level of
the fallen scorched. This does not stack with multiple dead scorched; only the highest temporary hit points is used.
Undead Defiance: When a scorched suffers a crippling wound from an attack, they can make a melee opportunity attack back at
the target if possible.

Scorchbeasts
Scorchbeasts are the greatest threat in the Appalachian region. Like many Aberrations, they were the result of genetic
modification, mutation, and extreme radiation exposure. The target creature was once a form of harmless, pygmy bats. The result
was a race of flying monsters capable of threatening the world.
The Appalachian region is the haunt of the scorchbeasts. They live in a vast network of caves that spans the entire
countryside. Occasionally, a scorchbeast will dig its way out of the caverns, opening a radioactive fissure in their wake. They
then proceed to infect and terrorize all life they come across. The infection is almost the greater threat; the scorchbeast are
carriers of a disease that converts biological matter in a form of ghoul known as a scorched. The scorched possess a sort of hive
mind, linking all scorched together on a communal intelligence. The scorchbeasts are the progenitors and masters of the scorched
plague, controlling their scorched minions like an army to conquer the world.
Even without their diseased followers, scorchbeasts are already some of the most powerful creatures in the wastes.
They possess powerful sonic blasts that can stun and kill prey and possess flight and incredible agility. The only known way to
close a scorchbeast fissure is to blast it with a nuclear warhead.
It is unknown how many scorchbeast there are buried under Appalachia- though there are certainly far too many- but it
is known there is only one queen. This matriarch of their species is the largest and greatest threat known. If there is any hope of
defeating the scorched plague, the queen must be killed.

Aliens
Aliens have had an impact on the planet for centuries before the bombs fell. They have watched and observed from
their spaceships, occasionally abducting individuals from their homes and experimenting on them aboard their ships. In recent
years, their spaceships have crashed in the wastes, allowing these alien ‘zetans’ to come into contact with the denizens of Earth.
Aliens are incredibly intelligent and have vastly superior technology. However, they have weak bodies and are few in
number. Most often, an alien is encountered when their ship crashes or they are abducting Earthlings.
Aliens follow many of their own rules and have their own creature type. They also have a selection of their own
equipment.
Alien Creature Type

Aliens use this creature type instead of others, such as mutant, aberration, or animal. This represents that they are very
unique, beings that don’t fall under any other category.
Alien
Special Ability (Alien Intellect): Aliens are far beyond humans in societal advancement and use their intellect for all tasks. Their
maximum intelligence is 2 higher than their level would normally allow. In addition, they add ½ their intelligence to all skill
checks and all attack rolls. However, aliens also have -1 strength and endurance maximums based on size.
Special Ability (Alien Gear): Alien armor cannot be used by characters of any other race. Alien blasters, however, can be used
by other races.
Descriptions: Aliens, also known as zetans, are a race of extraterrestrials that have observed humanity for generations from their
motherships in Earth’s orbits. Occasionally, one of their expedition craft will crash on Earth, stranding an alien on the surface.
Other times, individuals will come to Earth to capture specimens or take samples.
Alien Equipment
While alien armor is unique to that race’s physiology, their weapons are usable by others and are highly coveted.

Description: The alien blaster was constructed by extra-terrestrials using technology beyond human understanding. They are
occasionally found once their scouting vessels crash on the earth’s surface. Alien blasters are unimaginably powerful, essentially
hand-held disintegration beams. They are also incredibly rare, and cannot be purchased or crafted, and are rarely found. Alien
Blasters do not have multiple equipment tiers.

Alien Pilot
Alien pilots are the most encountered variant of Zetan. They control the scout ships that explore the skies and space,

Flatwoods Monster
The flatwoods monster is a mythical creature spotted near the town of Flatwoods. It is believed to be a mythical
creature with great power that steals victims. In reality, the flatwoods monster is a small alien in an advanced armor suit that has
impressive capabilities. These aliens are deployed in secret as expeditionary forces to explore Earth, capture specimens, and
recover samples. They are not intended to engage with enemies, and usually teleport aware once the purple glow of their suit is
detected by others. However, they will fight when trying to capture a victim.

and medium range. This is a +14 attack against the target’s resolve. If they succeed, the target is controlled by the flatwoods
monster and their turn is controlled by the monster. They usually use their controlled minions to attack or subdue their allies. The
control lasts until the alien is killed or the target succeeds a DC 22 intelligence check at the end of their turn. The flatwood
monster can only control one character at a time.
Special Ability (Expeditionary Combat Suit): The flatwoods monster is actually a tiny alien implanted within an advanced
alien expeditionary combat suit. This combat suit gives the alien a number of powerful abilities based on traits included in the
armor.
-Flight: The flatwoods monsters can use the suit to fly at a speed of 6 squares per round. It always flies instead of
walking.
-Teleportation: Once per 5 rounds, the flatwoods monster can use the suit to teleport up to 100 squares. They must
know of the location they are teleporting to.
-Laser Blasters: Each arm of the flatwoods monster is a concentrated beam weapon. These weapons are identical to a
Tier 3 Laser Rifle weapon. They have two of these weapons and can dual-wield them without penalty. Alternatively, they can use
them in concert to make a single powerful beam. As a full-round action, they make 1 attack that gains +20 penetration.
-Smashing Arms: The suit gives the flatwood monster the Tier 3 Bash natural weapon.
-Automated Repair: The suit automatically fixes itself. The flatwoods monster recovers 10 hit points and recovers
from 1 crippling wound at the start of each turn.

Creature Templates
Templates are modifications that can be applied to creatures to change them. Templates generally have a theme as to
how they change the creature, representing a mutation or other factor that makes them different than others of their kind.
To apply a template to a creature, simply chose a template and follow the instructions and restrictions to remodel the
creature. Templates do not cost characteristic points. Most templates are restricted to certain creature types. Templates may
increase or decrease a creature’s threat level. Once all the changes have been applied, recalculate their statistics based on any
changes to ability scores, skills, size, etc.
Diseased Creature Template

A diseased creature is a carrier for a sickness or disease. While radiation allows it to suffer minimal effects from the
illness, it is a carrier for the disease and can spread it to other creatures.
Any creature except those of the robot type can gain the ‘Diseased Creature’ template.
-Every diseased creature is the carrier of a disease. Refer to the following chart to see the list of diseases. Included with
each disease is the effects if the disease is contracted, the durability DC to resist being affected with the disease, and the most
common creatures to inflict that disease. Refer to the disease sidebar for how diseases work.
-If a diseased creature deals damage with a melee attack, the target must make a durability check against the DC of the
creature’s disease. If they fail the check, they are afflicted with the disease. See the disease sidebar below for how diseases work.
-Diseased creatures are the same threat level as normal.

Diseases
When you are inflicted with a disease, it does not manifest immediately. Instead, it activates a day cycle (4 hours), after
you were inflicted the disease. At that point you suffer all penalties from the disease. Once a disease manifests, getting it to go away
is difficult.
When you take a long rest for at least 2 day cycles, you can remake your durability check to try and shake the disease.
You suffer a -4 penalty to this check. If you succeed, the disease is broken once your rest is finished. If you fail, you are still
affected by the disease. However, the next long rest you take you gain a +1 bonus to your durability check (normally bringing the
durability check to -3). Every time you fail your durability check on a long rest you gain a +1 bonus to your next durability check to
shake the disease, stacking. Thus, it is difficult to break a disease when you first succumb to it, but it gets easier over a long period
of time.
If you wish to break the disease more quickly, you can use a Disease Cure drug on the sick patient. This allows you to
make a medicine check against the DC of the disease. If you succeed, then the disease is automatically broken after your next long
rest.
Disease Cure
Base Cost: 300 caps
Benefit: The character can make a medicine check against the DC of all diseases you are currently suffering from. The check
succeeds, the disease(s) are broken on your next long rest.
Drawback: The drug has some narcotic traits, giving you 5 wear fatigue every time it is taken, as well as using up 1 healing
threshold.
Addiction: None
Description: This powerful narcotic purges your system of all ailments and illnesses if applied properly. It is quite rare, made of
different blends of natural compounds that purifies your body of disease. They are foul tasting, rare, and hard to make, but the
results cannot be argued with.
Natural Diseases
As you may have noticed on the disease table, not all diseases come from plagued monsters. Some diseases come
naturally, by exposure to different environmental concerns. This includes:
Bone Worms: Bone worms can be contracted by cutting or exposing a wound to a dirty device. This includes using an infected
stimpack, cutting yourself on a rusty piece of metal, or stepping on a nail.
Dysentery: This is usually gained when you eat rotten vegetables or eat meat that has not been cooked. The threat of dysentery
makes adventurers prepare their food more extensively.
Parasites: Unclean water is usually filled with parasites of all sources. If you drink water without boiling it, roll a d20. On a 16+,
you must make a check against parasites. In certain environments, such as swamps and bogs, it may even be more likely. Parasites
also come from consuming expired drinks.
Sludge Lung: Prolonged exposure to toxic air can give you sludge lung. This includes some swamp gasses as well as unsafe
industrial plants.
Swamp Itch: Swamp itch is gained from sleeping on open ground in an area that has a large quantity of insects, leeches, or similar
disease carrying micro biological pests. If you use a sleeping bag, you are less likely to get the itch, but not immune.

Scorched Creature Template

A scorched creature is a creature that has been exposed to the plague of the scorchbeasts. They have become withered,
distorted creatures that live as part of the scorched hive mind and help protect their bat-like overlords.
Any creature except those of the robot type can gain the ‘Scorched Creature’ template.
-The scorched creature gains +1 strength and endurance, even if this would take them over their normal ability score
maximums based on level. They also suffer -1 to their perception and charisma scores, to a minimum of 1. If they had a luck
score, they lose it.
-Scorched creatures are immune to any form of influence or animal handling. They are hostile to all other life forms
and will attacked non-scorched on sight. They cannot be flat-footed if they are adjacent to another creature with the scorched
template, a scorched humanoid, or a scorchbeast. They also gain +4 to their accuracy when flanking instead of +2 if they are
flanking with another scorched family member.
-Scorched creatures are the same threat level as the base creature.
~Scorched-infected creatures are noticeable for their hairless bodies, pink and pale complexion, and rotting skin
Scorched Plague
The scorched plague is a disease dealt by scorchbeasts. Once a character fails their durability check against the DC,
they will gradually transform into a scorched. Every 2 day cycles, they will lose 1 point of endurance, intelligence, and
charisma. Once their intelligence or charisma is reduced to 0, they go into a coma. Once their endurance is reduced to 0, they
effectively ‘die’ and will be reborn as a scorched after another day cycle.
Once a human is converted into a scorched by the virus, maintain all their original statistics, before the draining effect
began, but give them a -3 penalty to intelligence and charisma (minimum of 1). They lose any luck score they had. They also
gain +1 strength and endurance and the Scorched Hive Mind trait. They retain all their equipment. Unfortunately, they become
hostile to all non-scorched.
There is no cure for the scorched plague. However, there is an inoculation. The inoculation is a process that several
factions in Appalachia has been working on to protect themselves from the plague. Becoming inoculated is an important part to
surviving in the region and is likely the reward of a great quest. When you are inoculated, you cannot suffer the scorched plague.
It does not, however, remove the plague from you, only prevents you from gaining it.

Scorched Anglers
A large amount of scorchbeast territory is toxic, parasite filled bogs that are natural homes to anglers and other aquatic
monsters. Many anglers get infected with the plague, and become roaming predators securing the swamps for the scorched
hierarchy.

or special conditions to enter the cloaking state. Anyone using a detector action must make a DC 21 detection test (DC 15 +
angler’s sneak score) to reveal the angler. Even detected anglers are automatically sneaking again at the start of their next turn if
they remain motionless and underwater. Additionally, a character can make a DC 25 survival test as a standard action to reveal
any hidden anglers within 6 squares, by spotting which lures are real plants and which belong to an angler.
Special Ability (Aquatic): The angler is an amphibious creature and survive both underwater or on land. In addition, it can swim
at its normal movement speed without it being considered limited movement. It does not need to make athletics tests to swim.

hostile to all other life forms and will attacked non-scorched on sight. They cannot be flat-footed if they are adjacent to another
creature with the scorched template, a scorched humanoid, or a scorchbeast. They also gain +4 to their accuracy when flanking
instead of +2 if they are flanking with another scorched family member.

Scorched Mega Sloth

The gigantic mega sloths share a lot of home ground with scorchbeasts and can even challenge them in close combat.
