Mi Go by |
Deep in the wastelands of Accursed Atlantis alien powers fight ancient
wars using surgically altered slave soldiers in their sick wars of
attrition and decadence. The ancient Martian warlords and wizards fight a four sized war against the Mi Go
for control of territory and control of valuable resources using slave
stock who live and die at their alien master's hands. Loss of life from
their slaves is tallied and the slave stock continues to flow into the
hardened alien city state fortresses of these uncaring masters of super
science and alien sorcery. The alien mercenaries continue to bring new slaves as the wars continue under the alien uncaring suns.Life and death means little to these creatures whose strange alien chess game has gone on for centuries with new war machines added or some new weapon of war making its way onto the battle fields.
The true masters of the deserts wastes of Accursed Atlantis has been the ancient Martian warlords whose grasp once extended over vast dimensional holdings of a plane spanning empire. Their empire was held in check by their genetically altered creations among their holdings populations such as the unique ecological and religious cycle of the Therns and The First Born on Barsoom. Cycles of history that play out in Accursed Atlantis as well.
The wastelands ring out with the clash of cybernetically and surgically altered slave warriors playing out bloody and dangerous games of blood and dust in the wastelands. The Martians keep a gaining and losing ground against the Mi Go with no clear winner yet. The Martians continue to push with their alien troops and war machines however.
The Martian warlords controlled Earth 7500 BC and their handy work still resonated with the events of their genetically created super soldiers invading Earth in 1998. The wide spread terraforming efforts of the invasion almost succeeded in turning the Earth once again into a playground for these terrible beings. They're efforts throughout the centuries clashed with the alien Mi Go and has been a source of conflict ever since. The conflicts played out in the back wastelands of Accursed Atlantis only heighten the tensions between the two alien powers with neither side gaining or losing much ground. There is speculation that these wars are merely for the alien spectacle and entertainment of their benefactors. The Mi Go are the leaders in sheer super science and cybernetic surgical skill however. The Martians employ alien and demonic surgeons to match the Mi Go. But the stalemate continues. Here then are 1d6 Mi Go random surgical alterations for your old school campaigns should your PC's fall into the claws and nippers of the Mi Go
1d6 Random Mi Go Surgical Alterations Table
- Energy projector hand that does 3d6 points of damage to its target at a range of fifty feet. There will be 1d6 charges at the dawn of each day, the weapon charges with the light of its alien sun. It appears a jeweled ruby hand and continues to function as would a regular hand but its surface crawls with alien energies from time to time.
- The victim's body holds a swarm of alien things that act as a swarm of vermin and will fly to their target biting, scratching, and eating their victim for 1d6+3 points of damage. The owner of these cyber bio things will experience all of the target's senses of violence and violation on a telepathic level and there is a 10% chance of this driving the owner mad. The alteration may be used three times per day. The things are housed in special bio mechanical cells within the owner's body, the things nurture themselves on the blood and body fluids of the owner as well as those of the targets.
- The slave becomes a spotter and their cranium,eyes, and mind are altered with oversized bio cyber eyes with dark vision, ultravision, and telepathic projectors so that the Mi Go can see through the eyes of the slave. All attacks are at a +3 for damage as the bio computers feed the the fool all possible suggested weaknesses of their targets. The slave may be driven mad by the telepathic buzzing and binary alien speech patterns of the aliens in their heads constantly and the alien impulses of the implants in their bodies.
- Existence Skin is implanted on the victim's muscles and flesh is replaced with a bio synthetic living thing. The implant allows the slave to take only half damage from all physical attacks as they are slightly out of phase with the local space time and existing in the astral allowing them to have a half like ghostly existence. They take full damage from certain types of magic spells that effect demons and the like. There is a strange purplish hue to their existence and a 3% chance of a demon or some other astral parasite eating them. They can phase through doors, bars, etc. as a ghost but escape is never an option from their Mi Go masters.
These poor fools can do +3 damage because of molecular disruption to physical targets but they will phase out completely after a successful attack for 1d8 rounds. They're physical existence yanks them back into our universe so escape into the astral completely is impossible because of the Mi Go implant. - The slave is given 1d30 alien mouths over their entire body and these will do +3 damage bonus to anything the slave attacks. They a +3 to hit on all attacks because of the small alien eye things that pass for senses for the mouths. The victim will have chunks of their existence eaten by the implants and the resulting holds in the reality of the victim will leave them open to all types of astral and Outer Darkness horrors that will quickly devour them. The slave is given over the psychic alien thoughts and horrible impulses of these semi living things.
- The slave is given over claws, fangs, and alien sensor spikes as a living weapon of melee and warfare. The slave gains a +2 to all to attacks their bodies drip with weird bio molecular acid. Seven times per day they may spit up to twenty feet with a goo of acid for 2d6 points of damage. The stuff will continue to do 1d4 points per rounds.
Yeah, those are some great suggestions! Lovecraft meets Cronenberg.
