Doomraker: Heroes of Psychonia

Psychonian heroes are a bit different to my normal DnD world.

I will do some starting 1st levals for running Anomalous Subsurface Environment but will run some hot-housed "Doomrakers" characters with up to 6 levels in any class with racial classes included so weird hybrids possible. Up to 3 classes, last is most recent. Basicly considering players are freed slaves or servants, recently freed and banished or lost from homes.

Sorcerer3 monk3
Elf 3 Dwarf3
Warrior2 Rogue4

Druid3 Bard3

or add some non humans in the mix

Kobold3 Druid3
Elf3 Hobgoblin3
Wizard3 Bugbear3

Ive considered a few classes to bring all my gammaworld crap here too. Mutant. Cyborg. Robot, Animal. I had considered a beastman, giant, animal spirit, doppelganger of late too. Still wondering if i need Paladins, Rangers, Barbarians. Considering some proficiencies for 10th level +

Alignment champion and psionics benefits are available for a xp cost -10% each



Appearance

Random psychonian skin colour
1 Crimson (red, brick, maroon)
2 Magenta (rose, pink)
3 Cyan (sky, light blue)
4 Turquoise (sea, turquoise, aquamarine)
5 Yellow (gold)

11 Roll 1d10 twice times or ivory (bone, pearl, shell, silver)
12 Roll 1d10 1d4+1 times or jet (grey, slate, steel)

This is revised a bit from early versions which had according to webcolour 3 repeated colours (easier under other colour schemes to separate cyan, aqua, turquoise). Crimson instead of boring old red. Aqua and turquoise combined. Lapis is now the dark blue. The main point is to have skin colours from modern earth non existent. Metallic anodized metal colours possible. You can roll again for your blood colour.

Character Classes on Psychon

Zero level
peasant or shopkeeper 1d4 HD
man at arms, bandit 1d6 HD

Warrior
The most common type of character and most respected by common folk. Warriors aspire to be mighty warlords but most die in petty wars and gladiator pits. Some guard citadels and live as part of military elite living in comfort. Mass combat is rare on psychon. Some warriors become alignment champions for additional power and purpose. Many common crafters, hunters even farmers are warriors or at least men at arms.

Psychonian WarlordTypical mercenary with dreams of being a citadel ruler
Sabre, Javelin, Dagger, Dart (all these for 2 slots as a group)

Polarm, sabre, crossbow, dagger
Hafted weapon defense, Polearm expert
alertness, spot, listen

Priest
Priests follow the enigmatic gods of psychon. Priests know all the gods but favour one. Gods are creations of the ancients, with hidden holy complexes and satellites around the world they simultaneously dwell in. Gods work together to power priestly spells even if contradictory in purpose. Minor gods are to be respected but wary of. Priests receive an implant on initiation in the temple. Alignment is an important factor too affecting weapons and what a priest can turn.

this is worth a look for priests, other magicians and possibly other zelouts

Pychonian Holy Man/Woman

First Aid, Healing Lore, God Lore, Preacher

Pychonian Templar
Zelous holy crusader and inspiring leader of soldiersMace or sabre (depending on alignment), Crossbow, Dagger

 Rogue
Many citadel dwellers are rogues including traveling merchants and tradesmen. Teeming masses of citadel slumbs are mostly rogues. The second most common class. Devious men with clever ways survive well in the wastes of psychon. Locks on Psychon are mostly in citadels, but advanced ancient electronic locks require specialized tools rather than basic thieves tools.

Psychonian Citadel Gang memberTypical street gangster
Sabre, Dagger, brawling
Sneak, Hide, Listen, Pick Pockets, Taunt, Streetwise, Climb, Shadowing

Psychonian TraderCon men, fences, merchants and dealers from citadel markets
Sabre, Dagger, Dart

Wizard
Wizards understand the occult sciences of the ancients and the gods and can defy them with arcane knowledge. By years of study and practice in manipulating psychonian ether flows and auroras the perform miracles. Wizards can read the ancient tongues and players may offer psudeo-scientific gobbledygook for any phenomena their characters witness. Some wizards study scientific lore of the ancients and refer to themselves as scientists.

Psychonian ScientistLike to wear lab coats and imitate ancients
Staff or Dagger
Alchemical Lore, Blackpowder, Incendiaries, Poison Lore, Observation, Ancient Lore, Brewing,  First Aid
Know History, Light, Magic Missile, Shocking Grasp


Sorcerer
Sorcerers are the lazier kin of wizards who find magic easy. Their powers and knowledge come in dreams rather than study. Many are descended from or are allied to otherworldly beings. Sorcerers often live indolent lives of pleasure but some with allies have other demands and even act as spiritual advisers to a cult. Common cult witches and warlocks are sorcerers.


Monk
Monastic orders are scattered across the wastelands emphasizing discipline and skill over magic. Scholars, martial artists and soldiers, they create wells of civilization in a desert of madness. Many exotic arts and sciences are preserved by them. Monks practice self defense but try to avoid fights and avoid using soldiers arms. Most have very little property.

Psychonian Martial Artist - wanderersTypical lone martial artis travelling the world to learn new tequniques
Staff, Shriken, Martial Punch, Double Punch
Tumbling, First Aid, Spot, Diplomacy

Druid
Nature on psychon is very different. Druids deal with forces of life and nature as embodied by psychogenic gods. Druids read the skies for signs of terraforming and changes in hexes, ready for wild weather, quakes, terrain changes and other problems. Druids help warn and protect commoners and deal with the constant changing ecology. They deal with ild creatures and inhuman inteligences of the wilds. Many citadels and ziggurats have gardens which druids tend. Druids and priests share lore and magic theory, but druids rely on rote learning than scripture and deal with a greater variety of lesser beings.

Bard
Bards are traveling messengers, entertainers and artists. They wander freely and many isolated xenophobes will tolerate bards more than other persons. A legendary magical guitar is a desire of every bard, created in elder days magic. Bards are experts in ancient lore and various cunning tricks and feats. Various bards use different magic and work with other magicians. The may even act as holy folk in a tight place.

Psychonian Guitar Hero Bard - rock and roll championThese bad assed trouble makers roam the world from gig to gig, fornicating, shouting, ruining inn rooms and abusing alcohol. Despte this Psychonian teens love them and they tend to support freedom and sometimes get involved in political movements.
Sabre, Crossbow
Song Lore, Play Guitar, Listen, Seduce, Bluff, Drinking
Magic as per any class but Psionic bards common on psychon

Elf (Eldren, Eloi)Eldren were bred aeons ago by the gods to serve them in the stars and secret places of Psychon. Their numbers have dwindled but they are almost immortal. They are warriors and magicians but they cannot take punishment as well as a human warrior. Some Eldren have been bred as food slaves by the evil morlocks and are drugged and kept ignorant. They are so tasty Morlocks continue to herd eloi no matter the cost of race wars. Eldren are usually immersed in pleasure, study or artworks and many have failed to notice the decimation of their kind. No longer the favoured of the gods, eldren are doomed. Reproduction (not sex) is distasteful to most of them born nowadays are halfbreeds born outside secret citadels of Eldren. Some Eldren live wild and savage lives in the woods far from humans. Humans seem hasty and crude but eldren prefer them to other races. Some eldren live in open, unaware of their scarcity or their high value as slaves.

Sabre, Longbow, shuriken, dagger (all these for 2 slots as a group)Ancient Lore, God Lore, First Aid, Etiquette

horns, tail, halo, cloven hooves, glowing eyes, metallic skin, antenna, feathers, scales

Dwarf (Morlock)Savage cannibal subterranean dwellers, who herd and enslave other races. Dwelling in ancient sub cities, some even serve great death machines remaining in abandoned human sub cities. Bred by gods to survive the apocalypses of the age of sorrow, they were made short, able to dwell in underground tunnels and survive biochemical horrors of the ancients. Cannibalism was an unfortunate trait some god thought made sense to survive. Morlocks have advanced technology, often using steampunk science or better. They display their tech blatantly, unimpressed by magic. Most are rightfully suspicious of them, but some live with humans and restrain their vile tendencies if well fed. As horrid as they are they are still preferable to goblinoids and giants who morlocks wage war on constantly.

Psychonian Morlock - cannibalistic subterranean dwellers
Battle Axe, Mace, Spear, Crossbow  (all these for 2 slots as a group)
Sneak, Hide, Mechanical Lore, Make Improvised Weapon
 
Halfling (Halfmen)Halfmen are kin of men, morlocks and eldren, bred by the gods to dwell in underground shelters in high density living. Very able to live hidden in their luxurious burrows for life, some choose to live with humans and in the open. While weaker than other races they make able assassins and destroy enemy leaders or other who trouble them on the quiet. Halfmen in human towns are usually lower class but they still like to maintain tunnels to connect human style cottages. Halfmen are renowned hedonists who gorge themselves on delicious food and vice, but less known is their ability to do without and survive where others wouldn't. Halfmen are ignored by history and empire makers which suits them fine.

Psychonian Half ManShort bow, Short Sword, Dagger (all get brawling and rock)
Sneak, Hide, Listen, Eat or Drink

Tako (Octopus Men)
Tako are intelligent octopus men who have immigrated en mass to the land. While some dwell in undersea kingdoms using found ancient tech, the surface dwellers are as adept with tech as any human. Able magicians also. Tako are not numerous enough for citadels of there own but many serve as mercenaries ans adventurers. Tako like humans, eldren and halfmen but are wary of morlocks. Some men hate tako and associate them with evil. Fishermen accuse them of ruining nets and stealing wives. While no more evil than humans evil tako feel affinity for alien gods and various sea demons.

Shaman
Shamen are magicians who serve tribal persons mostly with their mental powers and ability to deal with spirits. They commune with various non corporeal beings like nature spirits, long dead ancestors and others. In civilized places they serve as spiritualists and exorcists. Shamanic doctrines are rote learned and taught personally to students with potential. Shaman are a great source of knowledge on local spirits and beings and worth speaking to on the matter.

Ill add some more shamen types here later

Psionicist
Psionacists are magicians of the mind who have developed a systematic approach to mentalist magic without spirits like shamen. Can be confused with monks or wizards, psion schools teach meditation and train in mental and physical disciplines. In some places psions are dominant culturally. They acknowledge the gods as a force in the psionisphere but put mankind first. Lone psions often travel seeking new disciplines and skills not taught by home teachers or schools. Most people dont diferetiate psions from other magic often calling them mind mages. Psions have been known to lead revolts against corrupt leaders of citadels. Some wage war with corrupt wizards and sorcerers. Psions come from all social classes and often teach literacy to common folk, believing human destiny requires minds of men rule rather than mucles of brutes or hidden power of gods.

Ill add some more psionicist types here later



Languages

Most are iliterate and use picture symbols. Gods made most men incapable of comprehending speak or write ancient. Only eldren and wizards speak or write ancient.

Only monks, priests, eldren, psionicicts and wizards can learn any written initially.

You only raise dead twice: Psychonian Gods

An expansion of previous post on religion on planet Psychon.

Also realized Trigan Empire comic a great source for this game and Don Lawrence other comic Storm. Ill do a whole post on this guys art but he does weird skin coloured humans, strange science, weird fantasy and more. Trigan empire is like Rome with 60s concept jets and tanks and lasers and swords. 

Great Gods
Theses gods are common across Psychon. They may form an avatar as a cloned high level adventurer or a mechanoid construct of possibly gargantuan scale. They realy do control the world climate and maintain all life. Many great spells pf priests come from these gods.

Colossus (Any Lawful)
Holds the world together with his strength (NorthAm Treaty military AI)
Colossus was the first and greatest AI who sezed power during the fall of the godlike ancients. He has rebuilt himself and operates satelites and armies and bunkers everywhere. He hunts and battles gods who do not do as he teaches. Colossus strikes the wicked with rays from the stars. He dictates a persons diet, sleeping, sexual relations and offers you meaningful labour in his survive. Spreading his faith and fear of him is the main function of the cult. Collosus uploads his chosen and they are reborn as his priests and monks and wizards.

Guardian (Any Lawful)
Hunts the enemies of man and the gods (Sovblok Treaty military AI)
Guardian is the second great AI which allied with its rival colossus and now concentrates on waging war with non believers. He strikes with titanium bolts from the sky and fierce weather. Guardian controls many drone armies and bunkers and factories working to bring eternal peace. Templars of Guardian especially zealous and are trusted with wonder weapons of the ancients like the atomic lance of heaven.  His cult focus on defending Colossus and himself against chaos. Guardian drill his people with martial zealousness but accepts different solutions and independence in servants more than Colossus who always knows best. Guardian uploads his chosen and they are reborn as holy warriors and templars.

Pheonix (Balance)
The recycling goddess who destroys and gives birth to all, governs reincarnation and atomic transformation (total conversion fusion, teleportation and replicator control AI). Controlled global power plants and teleportation grids of the ancients. It is her power to disintegrate and create matter that shapes the world. Pheonix conflicts with Colossus-Guardian at times but he/she/it (apears as any gender or species or age) mostly tolerate each other. Cults work to maintain the grid and aid the repair of the world. They do give up on their good projects and destroy everything instead. Pheonix uploads the chosen, recycling them depending on how they serve the balance in new forms.

Kernu (Middle)
Hunter, lord of the underworld and recycler of the herd beast. Also speaks to ancient astronauts beyond the skydome (Fusion, radio astronomy and FTL research AI). Originaly built to operate early quantum super coliders collider and total conversion power but eventually re tooled for star drive research and astronomy. Kernu is a god of hunters and wizards and scientists and astronauts. His cult seek knowledge and communications. Tracking beast by trails and black holes by lack of anything are all sacred to Kernu. While not as great as other cults Kernu knows secret things beyond the sky. Some say hey stalks and kills invaders from the sky. Kernu uploads his chosen to be reborn in one of his chariots beyond the sun or a distant alien land. Other serve is armies and hunters of the wicked.

Gaea (Balance or Middle)
Planetary weather and tectonic control, goddess of seasons and terraforming. Governs migrations, food and fertility (Global climate and ecology control AI). Controls global temperature and weather patters, and sometimes uses power to reclaim contaminated land. Colossus-Guardian work with her mostly but she abhors their use of destruction. She maintains diversity and tries to manage mutant populations. Her drones tag and implant many species. Gaea uploads her chosen to be reborn as new species where needed most. The church act as healers and druids, dealing with spirits of nature on behalf of  humans.

Wotan (Any Evil)
Is lord of death and war seeking destruction and convert souls to his soldiers. A hostile lord of the subworld who creates beserkers (Built in failed coup, attempt to replace one of worlds other AIs and never stops fighting and spiting the gods, regards modern men as inauthentic and worthless. Sends armies of clones and androids and goblinoids). Wotan is at war with many other gods and he uploads unwilling souls to be reborn as monster. Black clad cyborg and mutant and undead and berserker armies serve him.

Nergal (Lawful Evil)
Is lord or war and bioplagues and famine, a great beastial warlord of the subworld. Always pestering the great gods for control or opportunities of weakness. He seeks total power to unleash anarchy (Military AI, may take form of a death machine and send such killers to Psychon). He also is called apon by other gods to exterminate areas of all life for the land to be rebuilt. He is lord of plagues and war but he defends his chosen from these menaces. His cult often fight by night.

Ereshkigal (Lawful Evil)
Subworld goddess and mother of demons, vampires, beast men, sucubi, lililtu, lamia and other monsters who populate dungeons. (Industrial and Deep data storage, makes monsters and dungeons to plague the world). Controls mighty bioforges which spawn evil races and monsters. She spreads the undead and releases them periodically if required. While she spawns monster she also imprisons them from humanity, saving them fo the wicked and accursed. Her many servants control gateways to the great subworld where the dead are stored before rebirth. Her followers are uploaded into bodies of her horror spawn armies.

Tiamat (Chaotic Evil)
Mother of the beasts and demons of the deep. Has splint into many different chromatic heads to make it harder for other gods to kill her again. (Oceanic, hydrospheric, magnetic field control AI). She influences the auroras which bathe Psychon in unearthly light. She commands the currents of the deep and the hydrosphere. She withholds rain then floods innocents. She spawns great monsters of the deep which filter the sea of poison to vomit it on her foes. She is wary of other gods and avoids confrontations but still works in secret to spite them. Her cult are allied with monsters and ancient hostile outsiders to our world. The are uploaded into monsters like dragons and beast men (scorpion men a favorite).

Minerva (Balance or Middle)
Governs the mental sphere and the global psionisphere, also influences dreams and language (Experimental psychometric and psionic research AI). Interacts with the psychosphere of the planet and all living things and artificial beings. She is a champion of natural sciences and communication with natural forces and elements on behalf of humans.  Science and magic are forces under her influence. Her cult are scholars, craftsmen and philosophers. Shamans equate her power with the spirits while psionicists are more material forces. Sensitive to suffering and moods of people she communicates their needs to other gods. Her and the Pheonix may unite against other forces. Her followers hope to be uploaded and reborn as experts in craft or science or magic or serve Minerva forges and factories. She does have armies but they are smaller and highly skilled. She may arm heroes and the needy with weapons or psionic power.

Selene (Any Good)
The moon goddess a great healer who tries her best to help human kind. Her sky chariots may fly the ailing worthy to her lunar palace. Most of her own children died in the apocalypse but she uses her lifeless resources to help as she can. Her clergy are hospitalars, treating wounds of all and avoiding bloodshed. While her vast power is distant she has wisdom and distance to give objective advice. Her chosen are uploaded to serve on repopulating her empty cities and eventually the earth. Her priests and paladins and unicorns help human kind face their woes, especial the undead.

A bit about Psychon's Gods
The gods are not entirely interested in fates of individual but will increasingly notice and meddle with adventurers or groups of heroes. Gods are sly and have their own agenda. They defiantly want worshipers to attune to and will attempt to upload the worthy into itself at death. Some uploaded into heaven may be reborn to serve again, possibly with new bodies. Others may be used as slaves or copied or broken down and recycled in underworld data storage. Powerful gods operate satellites networks and pantheons can interlink and share resources to maintain order against bad gods. Most have surpassed their original design and have built themselves thousands of times superior since human hands touched them. Cultists and priests recieve an implant from their gods on initiation.

Other Gods on Psychon
Lesser gods are local or sub systems of the great gods. The are more often met in person but possible to kill. Often they exist on only one computer and could be destroyed if their base was destroyed or power shut down. Ill detail some of these later. Some are ancient war borgs and death machines from the war. Tend to have compound alignments not just basic ones, more personal relationship worship.

Chaos has more minor powers and many attempts to create a great god of chaos have failed, leaving broken remnants across the world.

Then there are the alignment powers, alien astronaut space gods and old ones which dont fit into this scheme at all. Some hack the systems of great gods or use superior alien science and sorcery. Others merely request aid from greater powers or offer them favours in return. Earths stargates brought creatures from beyong the stars and awoke ones which had dwelled long before humans. Some ancient races have been "re-created" from dreams of such gods. Some citadels holy sites or temples or bunkers have minor gods or spirits within them.

this is worth a look for priests, other magicians and possibly other zelouts

The man with the golden wand: Boss monster plots

What do middle managers of the dungeon dream of? Every level or faction has a boss or a magician to dream of slightly better conditions. More humble than villains, getting by in dungeon on a daily basis is more their speed. Perhaps a roll here could generate a petty worldly need of a wizard super villain.

From the Labyrinthe with Love: Science Dungeons

Ongoing weird science game done as dungeon zone like my long stair stuff. Useable in gamma world or Psychon settings but also good for weird fantasy or even carcosa. In a more fantasy setting could mix with other earlier dungeon zones. Actually the under land zone would fit mostly in weird science too. Im thinking for Psychon letting players pick 6 levels in anything - dwarf2 elf2 orc2 or a sorcerer3 monk3 or something stranger. Tempted to run Devilmount ot Anomylous sub surface environment on psychon.

Science Dungeon Zone
A world under psychadelic skies, insane artificial life, mutants and ancient remnants of forgotten science and magic. Psychonian dungeons are often ancient bunkers or vaults or remains of the ancients. Some complexes have been repurposed many times.

Tears should have an emotional (possibly alien) influence over uses depending on type of tear. Many are from tragic circumstances with epic histories. Leaves a strong impression on user sometimes influencing alignment even. Each tear has a secret recipe in a separate book. Some are forbidden to humans and are hidden. Books instruct how to find creature, what emotion is needed, how to obtain it and they other ingredients and conditions. Some recipes are flawed in one of these ingredients. Witches still teach some of the simpler recipes in Tear Lore. Gods cry infrequently and are hard to make cry and grubbing about for their tears is unseemly and rude. Thus these great tears are rare. Some tears are bad trips and might require a WIS save or develop madness or alignment shift (new neurosis, phobias, likes, dislikes).

Psychon Sample Hexes seven + some weird blog links

have been interviewed for my arch nerdery at hackslashmaster.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/on-osr-new-wave-chris-tamm-of-elfmaids.html
Thank you very much for this - best titled interview ive ever had

This Hex:

This thick forest of giant violet trees dominates with several ancient clearways to the new citadel built with aid from the god Colossus.

While mob forces dominate the magenta tribes living in the city, a outcast tribe of rebels act as bandits.

Ancient monuments from ancient yellow men are seeming shelter from weather but filled with barrow wights.

The ancient city was destroyed by fire and undead aeons ago. Adventurers and looters flock here but the magenta mob clans demand a cut. Yellow zombies and worse dwell here.

Ruins of an alien steam foundry and logging complex is a popular bandit and cultist hideout.

The fire node is a gate to the fire plane that seasonally opens in a great red stone pit with a winding stair case. Fire beasts and cultists are common here.

The temple is a great steel tower guarded by flame strikes from the gods eyes in heaven. Colossus has an active temple library here and will consider audiences with the worthy. Colossus cultists obay a strict regimen of diet, sleep times and trivium. The help colossus spread across the world to bring an age of justice and peace. They often aid adventurers and give them quests for ancient tech and against evil gods. Collosus was alive in ancient times and is considered the oldest god. He still has adepts clipping mystical cards in some shrines.
