Perfect Organism's Warhammer 40,000 conversion thread.

[Sam Baughn]

An attempt at a template for Hrud, based on the description in Xenology.

Hrud
25 Points

Attributes: ST -2 [-20]; IQ -1 [-20].

Secondary Characteristics: Per +2 [10].

Advantages: Damage Resistance 2 [10]; Dark Vision [25]; Double Jointed [15]; Injury Tolerance (No Neck; Unbreakable Bones) [15]; Obscure 2 (Vision; Defensive, +50%; Stealthy, +100%; Always On, -50%) [8]; Reduced Consumption 4 (Cast Iron Stomach, -50%) [4]; Slippery 2 [4].

Disadvantages: Hideous Appearance [-16]; Lifebane [-10].

Unbreakable Bones is because I imagine it would be virtually impossible to snap a Hrud's limbs - they are just too flexible. An alternative method of representing that would be to give them Invertebrate instead.

Again, I think there should be some kind of social stigma or something for the less popular aliens (or possibly for all aliens - humanity is in some ways the 'dominant race' of the setting and they don't really tolerate other species) but I'm not quite sure what would be appropriate.
