Mindcrime

This is a test game about catching criminals who committed crimes. Except every human in the world is psychic.

The Classes:

Obsessive - You have OCD. This isn't all bad for you though. Your unconventional thought patterns have made your mind hard to read or mess with. You take a penalty to reading other people's minds, though, as without extra training it's harder. The stronger the obsessive thought patterns, the more resistant you are. I'll give you between a 1-2 bonus to resist, the +2 being for things related to your ritual. I expect you to roleplay this to some extent.

Implanter: You plant persistent thoughts in other's heads that can take a varying amount of time to come to fruition, if not resisted. More training increases strength of compulsion and shortens time to effect.

Reader: You focus on scanning thoughts. You're very versatile and if in the combat variant, can even read opponent's actions in advance. Pick general, long-range, or combat focus. Long range has less precision, but greater pickup and general identification.

Destroyer: You drown out opponent's thoughts in a wave of mental noise and 'loud' thoughts. Can also help teammates focus by "muting" distracting thoughts. (+1 to stat of choice)

Rolls are standard d6

Sheet: +1 per three points in a stat. Start with 12 points.

Name:
Class and Focus:
Strength: melee
Dexterity: aim, initiative
Speed: dodging
Mind: power of mental attacks
Will: mental defense
Focus: finesse of mental attack

Everyone gets standard police gear. Think US police.

Let me know if you guys have questions.

Can you kill enemies simply using mind attacks?

Can you kill enemies simply using mind attacks?

Not by messing with nervous system stuff, but you can totally do things that result in death. As a destroyer, you can "mute" their perception of senses for example, or fill their head with thoughts of panic and fear. An implanter can implant thoughts that result more directly in death, but this is more explicitly considered murderous.

Can you attemp to "mute" every thought at the same time?

Can you attemp to "mute" every thought at the same time?

Yes, very hard though.

Last one: How many hostiles could a destroyer affect at the same time with their powers?

You would take a penalty based on how many targets (probably -2 per), but this would go down with levels in focus.

No relation, unfortunately. I don't listen to them much of all.

I would like one more player, otherwise will start this weekend probably.

I am the ultimate stalker. Unreadable, undetectable, and potentially as persistent as a bloodhound.

I think you have too many points. Or both me and DoombladeShadowclaw did our sheets wrong.

[Dustan Hache]

Says 12 points to be allocated with +1 to rolls per 3 in stat used. I count 12 points. I dunno bout you, but I think the highest your roll bonuses should be is +4 max...
