Mutant Murderhobos - Mutant Future Hack

Please note, obviously this is a house rules document!  If you plan to do anything with this other than use it at your table, you must follow all OGL guidelines.  And I'm officially trademarking MUTANT MURDERHOBOs, well as much as one can trademark something on the internet.  I like the ring of it.  So if you want to use this half cocked idea for something go right ahead, give credit where credit is due, etc.  And use something else for the title if at all possible :P


So here's what I got so far, I'm trying to make this mildly friendly for my players.  There are used to basicfantasy with a few extra bits from 5e thrown in for good measure.  Just creating this to level 10 only.

Classes:  Just 4, 
PURE HUMAN

ANDROID

MUTATED PLANT

MUTATED HUMANOID

Background: 5e Outlander table

Regular 6 ability scores, with -3 to +3 table.

Mutations: the ones from mutant future and Dyson's blog Mutant Omega

Alignment: 3

GOOD, CHAOTIC, NEUTRAL

IF A PLAYER ACTS AGAINST THEIR ALIGNMENT THEY MAY SUFFER A TEMPORARY DEDUCTION TO THEIR CHARISMA SCORE.  

Saving throw: Just one, its easier for my brain.

LEVEL	SAVING THROW
1	17
2	16
3	15
4	14
5	13
6	12
7	11
8	10
9	9
10	8

ABILITY CHECKS

Ability checks are based on target numbers, that become increasingly easier as you get more experienced. In some case you may have advantage or disadvantage on the roll.  Roll over number to succeed.  Add appropriate modifier to roll.

*NOTE When attempting to figure out technology add intelligence modifier

LEVEL	ABILITY CHECK DIFFICULTY
1	17
2	16
3	15
4	14
5	13
6	12
7	11
8	10
9	9
10	8

ATTACK BONUS

When attacking combine the following ATTACK BONUS + STR/DEX MODIFIER

When dealing damage add your ATTACK BONUS + DAMAGE ROLL

*note this is borrowed from basicfantasy fighter table.

LEVEL	ATTACK BONUS
1	+1
2	+2
3	+2
4	+3
5	+4
6	+4
7	+5
8	+6
9	+6
10	+7

ATTACKING

If the party is outnumbered all attack rolls are at disadvantage, if the party out numbers the monsters the party rolls at advantage.

*note:  cuz its going to be hillarious when they get surrounded by mutant flies. 

MIND ATTACK

*note: rather than using the mind attack table in mf, I decided to go with this genius idea of +Norbert G. Matausch 

To use a mind attack ability (any mutation that uses your mind), the following is the process.  Compare your willpower score to the monsters.  If the monsters is higher, you need to roll at disadvantage, if your willpower is higher you roll at advantage.  On 2d20s you need to roll higher than the monsters.  Add WILLPOWER MODIFIER TO ATTACK ROLL.  

EQUIPMENT

ARMOUR CLASS - UNARMOURED IS 10.   Create basic table (borrow from kotb)

all values in "caps" or some other odd thing... maybe loonies

LEVELING UP

USE 5E TABLE - AND MF CHART

*note I may either use the MF level chart XP values, or Basicfantasy fighter, or I may use the 5e table, while I dislike the fact that you can level up quickly in 5e, I'm considering using it for this because It will move along a bit quicker.

DEATH & DYING:  When a player’s hitpoints become negative their constitution score they are dying.  The player must roll d20 saving throws, 1 success counts as 2.  3 failures you die.  If they succeed they are stable at 1 hit point.

Success: _ _ _

Failures: _ _ _

RESTING

Upon a short or long rest and player receives 1d6 hit points + their CON modifier.

Inspiration - you get it for roleplaying your character well.  You can use it to re-roll any dice once.

Monsters and ish - so all the monsters will have ascending ac whole thing starts at 10, so if there's a negative number in the book I'll just add that to 20. ie some green slimey dude with crazy mutant powers who has a AC of -3 becomes 23. Monsters get attack bonues as per level of HD. a 4 HD monster attacks with a +4 to hit and damage.
