GLOG: MOTHERSHIP INSPIRED CLASSES (PART I)

THE DOORKICKER AND THE TEAMSTER: (IF I CAN CONVERT GLOG TO MOTHERSHIP I CAN CONVERT MOTHERSHIP TO GLOG)

That's right. You heard me.  Add a 4-template overlay to Mothership's excellent mechanical tools and panic system and make character advancement super weird.  It's your life.  But right now, these are GLOG classes for GLOG.  There are some minor tweaks you'd need to make to import them (different stats etc.).

TEAMSTER

Tradie’s tools (one set of your choice), sturdy workwear, a very large caffeinated beverage, multitool

+1 Save at A & C, + 1 HP at B &D

A: The Yoonyuhn, I Get Knocked Down . . .  

B: Lucky, Rush Job

C: Improvised Equipment

D: Working-Class Hero, Seniority

The Yoounyuhn: It doesn’t matter where you go (or whether you’re in an actual union) – you’ll find some amount of blue collar solidarity even when you don’t share a common language or culture.  At the very least, other blue collar workers will hear you out before picking a fight. Where appropriate, add +2 to reaction rolls.  You can usually figure out who you need to bribe, impress, or bully to get what you need (either within your social strata or related to your work).

I Get Knocked Down . . . : A number of times per day equal to your charisma bonus, you can halve all incoming damage.   

Lucky: You may reroll one d20 per day.

Rush Job: You can jury rig a fix to a problem that would take most people hours in minutes given a full set of tools and somebody to pass you a wrench and hold the flashlight.  There’s a 1-in-6 chance this fix will make things worse in a few hours or days.  It’ll hold for now though. 

Improvised Equipment: You can use most tools as reasonably effective weapons (GM discretion but usually at least an improvement of one dice type) and can treat a small toolbox and a roll of duct tape as a specialist’s toolkit.

Working Class Hero: You’ve done something notable enough that your peers have heard of you; led a strike, outrun a famous pirate in a beat-up chemfuel skiff, got really, really drunk and became a legend among a feared organized crime group known only as “The Machine.”  Roll on the Zouave tall tale table of your choice but explain why you got the perk you got yourself. 

Seniority: You have an apprentice (a 1-HD teamster; enthusiastic, not usually willing to do anything really dangerous); an influential role in an organized labor group (you know a lot of people and can get in touch with Management if needed); or a supervisory role (you draw a good paycheck and can retire comfortably from the adventuring life as a building inspector, consultant, or some other fairly respectable job that doesn’t involve backbreaking manual labor and serious danger.

DOORKICKER:

A: Dynamic Entry, CQC

B: Check Your Corners

C: Bum Rush

D: Young Man Do You Have a Girlfriend?

 

Dynamic Entry: Your attacks against inanimate objects always deal maximum damage and you may immediately move or make an attack when you kick in a door, blow through a wall, or drop through the ceiling.

CQC: You don’t suffer any penalties from using firearms against adjacent targets and firearm attacks from adjacent targets are made disadvantage (or a -4 penalty as appropriate).   

Check Your Corners: You cannot be surprised or caught unaware in any dense, complicated environment (forests, spacecraft, caves, buildings, etc.). One other player or NPC you designate as your buddy gets the benefit of this ability too.  Designating a buddy takes a few minutes of strategizing and a good pep talk.

Bum Rush: Charging down a corridor at people who are shooting at you is something you do with alarming regularity. You’re pretty good at it.  While charging, you gain +2 AC against anybody you are moving roughly towards.  You’re a lot faster than people expect.

Young Man Do You Have a Girlfriend?: Once per day when you make a dynamic entry you may force all enemies to immediately make a Morale roll.  A number of times per day equal to the absolute value of your CHA bonus (minimum 1) you may force a single enemy to reroll their morale check. So long as you are armed, people will take your threats very seriously.
