Super Bowl Sunday game time

The session this Sunday may start a little late on account of the American holy day known as the Super Bowl.
I will be watching the game over there already, so we should be able to start right at the end of the game.

The Super Bowl kicks off at 3:30 so it should end sometime around 7.

And we will have a new player, Josh, in attendance - read his kick-ass introductory post below this one to get a feel for his new Android Bard!

Instead of getting mutations, he is going to be trying an experimental magic system we hashed out over an internet chat session last night; basically, he will attempt to alter the fabric of reality by perfectly timed utterances in the 5-7-5 syllable Haiku format.  If successful, these Haiku will function as spells of a sort that have effects related to their content.  We envisioned these spells to be either supportive in function, exhorting his comrades on to greater performance in battle or negative in function, weakening and demoralizing opponents.

I am really looking forward to hearing the Mutant Future Haiku ring out from the mouth of the android known as IG-88!

The Portal Opens, new allies await?

A rift in time, or what you perceive as time (mechanical laughter), has allowed a forbearance to information of future friendships and trials. Is there one with portal abilities in your midst? I can see no other explanation. But I diverge from the true topic at hand, friends.
Those of my Corporation, what you would call family, friends? These fellows of the realm you have rifted so audaciously, my home, do call me by a name. If I were to attempt to transcribe it I dare say you would not understand. However you can call me IG-88 for our time together. However impolite and with out warning your transgression into our existence, our reality, I do sense one thing that pervades any amount of snobbish resentment, most of my Corporation may feel. I sense a need, of those who seek truth and justice in their endeavors against evil. And what is there to be said that, such concepts as good and evil transcend from one universe to the next? Nothing that cannot be explained with our future/past time together, beyond, that I am at your service.

Now you must make haste, in a sense. While time is in stasis in your realm while you venture in mine, Time does not halt for anyone in where one does perceive. And you Perceive it here, and thus it flows here, along with a tumultuous flow of evil that would squash you for no other reason than you represent your own willingness to die for a friends freedom. A list of my abilities, is, in order! You must prepare to use what you can from a low level being such as myself in anyway you can see fit.

I am, of a mechanical race. I am what you may call ANDROID.
I do not employ the great powers of biology, or the wonders of mutations, I employ little in fact. I offer a symmetrical mind of mathematical prowess and the ability to foresee with a relationship to numbers, that bears on an ambiguous prescience the emotional needs of my allies.
In my world I am what you would call a poet, artist, shaman, or even witch-doctor, of mechanical evolution. And with my calculations perhaps I can mathematically say the right words at the right time to inspire my comrades in arms to defeat the foes we both know to be ours: The generalities of evil in whatever form may come our way.
Alas, Till Sunday.

Who opened this portal?? IS THIS NARNIA??


Hello, Im here to ponder what course of action we are possibly going to take for next weeks sesh. I've already heard of possibly robbing these guys blind already. I was more or less wanting to see if they have material that may not exist in our realm, so in hopes to build my armor/mech suit. Im hoping that there is some good stuff, at the very least maybe slay some mo fo dragons and what not and hang out with "elves" that have voices of gold. I mean elves are cool right?

Beware of the Blobfish


Apparently I have to make a new post for a mutant because I can't upload a pic to a comment.

Mutant creature: Giant Blobfish
HP range: 100-150
Armor class: 4
Attacks:
The giant Blobfish can only physically attack something with its mouth by biting, but its real means of killing something is first getting the creature to attack it and while its paralzyed the giant Blobfish eats the creature.
Mutations:
Physical
Dermal poison slime- Covered in a thick gooey slime that is poisonous to those who touch it. (Paralysis for 1d6 rounds)
Toxic weapon- (Bite) the bite from this mutant creature is poisonous.(3d6 poison damage)
Night vision- Can see in darkness to a range of 60 feet.
Slow Mutant- The mutant is much slower in all respects. Movement speed is halved, mental tasks take twice as long and it may only attack once every other round.
mental
Empathy-The mutant can attune himself to the emotions of other beings and can instill emotions into creatures that are successfully attacked. Range of 90 feet.
Flight,Psionic
-The creature may fly through the air with movement of WILx10.
Dual cerebellum(Defective)-The creature has an extra brain that is defective and has 1d4 mental mutations of its own(half being negative).
Dual cerebellum(defective) mutantions
Negative empathy
- anyone with less than 17 INT within 90' has a 15% chance of attacking the mutant.
Increased Willpower- The mutant gains 4 extra WIL and a 10% bonus to tech rolls.
Mental barrier- Any mental attacks against this Mutant receives -4 penalty to their attack roll, the Mutant can also sense other creatures that have mental mutations at a range of 90 feet.
Phobia- This mutant is afraid of his own reflection.

Ecology: The giant Blobfish prefers to stay in areas that are loosely populated in order to not attract too many creatures and spell its own doom. It will eat just about anything(plant or animal).

Size:
The giant Blobfish can grow to be about 4 feet wide and 3 feet tall.

Double mutations

Question for Carl-

On Sunday you mentioned that you could have 2 quickness mutations, and after you left I went through the list of mutations and discussed other possible mutations with Danny that could possibly work to have two or more of them. Now the number of mutations we found was extremely small and I was wondering if Double of a mutation works for all parts of the mutation, such as you said for quickness you could run at 4x speed and not 2x, do you get 2 extra attack rounds or just 1?

Also, quick mind has 1/3 required learning speed and 30% tech bonus, if it was allowed for it to be doubled it could be pretty insane which is why I'm asking this question in the first place. Well and I want to make a monster with a double mutation.
