High Tech Mysticism & High Caliber Adventure Part 7 - The Warborgs For Carcosa



Alignment : Chaotic/Lawful 'Programming  dependent'
# Appearing 1-3 
AC: 7
HD:6
% In Lair : 29% 
Treasure : Nil/B (see below) 

Russian invented cyborgs made of slain soldiers, cybernetics, mutagenic flesh, and micro-robotic laced body cells designed to combat post-nuclear fallout effects during the Cold War of prior U.S.S.R. Operated as enforcers to select areas. Dominant combat weapons against SHIELD and Wisdom lead X-Force.


The Warborgs are a specialized weapons enclave created by Russian scientist Dr. Constantin Rancal, a genetecist and roboticist to the prior Soviet Union and a stalwart Russian nationalist. The Warborgs are oftenly regarded as Rawborgs in variant forms of close combat or espionage related assassination. Composed from micro-robotic cell forms derrived from devices taken by the defective U.S. spy cell CUCKOO and its director Dr. Niles Roman, the Soviets first attempted to weaponize the machine-flesh discovery with Meatspore Stormtroopers which proved to be a failure for lack of enabled control over the bio-weapon that had been later destroyed after its release from a Russian Science City by the Pete Wisdom lead X-Force.
Powers : 
Each Warborg has Hill Giant Strength 
All Energy Weapons do Half Damage Due To photo voltic bio coatings 
All Warborgs have an energy cannon that does 1d8 points of damage & has a 40" range. It may be fired 6 times each day 
Each warborg also has spines & anyone hit by them must make a save vs poison or submit to a very painful neotoxin poison that coats them. This must be done whenever some one enters melee with the borg. 
 The warborgs also have a limited form of mechanical telepathy that works within 10 miles of one another even if over 80 % of the monster is destroyed. 
A variation of the borg exists called a rawborg that may appear to be a normal human being until a mugentic change is activated then the creature will shred its human seaming. These borgs remain undetectable 80% of the time unless a detect science is cast 

Warborgs On Carcosa 

There are some 80 or so borgs on Carcosa & else where within the oververse due to cold war Soviet experiments in both teleportation & dimensional travel. These monsters have been seen in the employ of any number of wizards & mad psychopathic madmen. The borgs seem to have their own weird agenda & act as mercenaries for a number of weird horrific forces.  They may be encountered anywhere in the universe.
 The data gathering units of the rawborgs are quite valuable to a robomancer who are willing to pay quite a bit for them. Some of the materials of the borgs can be used in the manufacture of other robotic life forms .
