Default Re: ORICHALCUM UNIVERSE SIDEBAR: The CONSUMIDORO...

The CONSUMIDORO continued...

It is difficult to describe in detail the various abilities and weaknesses of specific consumidoro, because each one is a unique combination determined by the native traits of the initial subject, the needs and intentions of the Malignium, and surrounding circumstances. Instead, it is simpler to make a list of the potential traits that a given consumidoro might display, in various combinations and degrees.

Any given consumidoro might display, without any visible physical somatic mutation, any of the following (modified GURPS 3e):

DX +1
ST +2
HT +2
IQ +1d6 (primarily 'subversives')

With somatic mutation, the changes may reach as high as:

DX +4
ST +10
HT +10

Any combination of the following Advantages might be displayed by a predatory consumidoro:

Absolute Direction
Acute Hearing (+3 or more)
Acute Vision (+3 or more)
Acute Sense of Smell (+2 or more)
Acute Sense of Touch (+1 or +2)
Alertness (+3 or more)
Disease Resistant
Extra Fatigue (4 levels absent somatic mutation, 4-10 with somatic mutation)
Extra Hit Points (4 levels absent somatic mutation, 4-15 with somatic mutation)
Hard To Kill (4 levels)
High Pain Threshold
Increased Speed (2 levels absent somatics, up to 5 with somatics)
Less Sleep (3-6 levels)
Night Vision
Peripheral Vision
Temperature Tolerance (3 levels without somatics, 4 or (rarely) 5 with somatics)
Toughness (2 levels absent somatic mutation, more with somatic mutation)
Very Fit
Very Rapid Healing

To be continued…
