Author's Note: This is meant to be (hopefully) an entry point to the Muv Luv franchise, though with a few homebrew touches and additions from semi-relevant media. There is a template character for you to build your own, for the sake of story and consistency, you must assign a start location for this template to any starting "Base". Update: - Completed Character sheets for established characters NEEDS: - Timeline and plot lore (pending F&F lore tool update) *CONFIRMED COMING SOON

Description

The Soldier Class is the smallest strain of known BETA that sits at just over 2 meters tall. Possessing a partial human genome, it exhibits startlingly human features. Despite its fragile frame, this creature possesses an incredible grip strength with its long arms and can bite through super carbon using its formidable hinged jaw. It has the highest detection capabilities of all the BETA, furthering its role as an anti-infantry unit. The Soldier-Class BETA moves with a near-silent grace that makes it a deadly predator, rare being detected unless approaching from the front. - Silent Approach: The Soldier Class can move stealthily, gaining advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks and allowing it to surprise its foes. - Fragile: The Soldier Class BETA has disadvantage on saving throws against spells and effects that deal fire, piercing, slashing, or bludgeoning damage. - Skull Crushing Bite: The Soldier Class BETA’s bite attack deals an additional 2d6 damage to creatures with a head.

Actions

Grapple and Devour

This is a two-turn ability that involves grappling and then delivering a devastating bite. Turn 1: Grapple Grapple: Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target of equal or smaller size. Hit: The target is grappled (escape DC 14). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, and the Soldier Class BETA cannot use its arm attacks on another target. Turn 2: Devour Devour: The Soldier Class BETA uses its powerful bite to attempt a coup de grâce on the grappled target. The target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or take 4d8 + 4 piercing damage. If this damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, the target is decapitated.

Summon Reinforcements (Recharge 6)

The Soldier Class draws in more BETA after detecting targets, summoning 1d4 additional Soldier Class to its location. The summoned BETA appear within 30 feet of the original and act on their own initiative count. They disappear after 1 hour or when reduced to 0 hit points.
