Muv Luv Alternative: Desparation

D
DamascusActual

Immerse yourself in mankind's struggle against the BETA, piloting large mechs to even the odds.


Author's Note: This is meant to be (hopefully) an entry point to the Muv Luv franchise. Experience an alternate timeline of Earth, where the Cold War never ended and an overwhelming extraterrestrial threat has Humanity on it's back foot. Less than 3 billion souls remain to hold the desparate resistance. Can you make a difference? 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: - World overlay map and reorientation of areas/POIs NEEDS: Timeline and plot lore (pending F&F lore tool update)

Description

The Warrior-Class BETA is the second smallest strain of BETA. Standing 2 meters tall with a single large trunk-like arm that can deliver devastating blows and rip the head off a human body, the Warrior is strictly an anti-infantry type BETA. Though not particularly durable, it compensates with remarkable agility, utilizing its speed to close the distance in combat. - Evasion: If the Warrior Class BETA is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, it instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if it fails.

Actions

Head Rip

The Warrior-Class BETA can attempt to rip off the head of a grappled creature. This is a two-turn action. - First Turn: The Warrior makes a Trunk Slam attack. If the attack hits, the target is grappled (escape DC 15). The target must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw at the start of its next turn or remain grappled. - Second Turn: If the target is still grappled at the start of the Warrior-Class BETA’s next turn, the Warrior can use its action to attempt to rip off the target’s head. The target must succeed on a DC 18 Strength saving throw or be decapitated, resulting in instant death. Additionally, the Warrior Class BETA can perform a coup de grâce on any prone creature of small or tiny size, regardless of the creature’s remaining hit points. The prone creature must succeed on a DC 18 Strength saving throw or be decapitated, resulting in instant death.

Stinger Jab

The Warrior-Class BETA makes a quick stab with its stinger, dealing 1d6 piercing damage on a hit and poisoning the target.

Trunk Slam

The Warrior-Class BETA swings its large arm to strike a target within reach. On a hit, the target takes 1d10 + 2 bludgeoning damage and must succeed on a DC 12 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
