Restricted Paths: A Grackle Tooth has no capacity for magic or psionics. They cannot take any Arcane Background using PPE or ISP, nor any Iconic Framework that includes it.
“Stuff Ain’t Built for Me”: A Grackle Tooth’s unique physiology and proportions make it difficult for him to find armor he can use.

He also suffers a −2 to any checks made to operate a vehicle or its weapons not refitted for his race. Any gear gained from an Iconic Framework is assumed to be custom-built for the character.

Background

Konrad was born and raised in Tolkeen, a city of magic. A voracious reader from a young age, he was always taking in any talks that Erin Tarn held and learning as much as possible about a wide variety of topics, but demonstrated a keen ability for mechanical items. If he could have learned magic, he would have become a techno wizard, but instead he apprenticed as an operator.

In the years before the war, he opened up an operator shop in the North of the city, helping to maintain the non-magical portions of the city’s infrastructure.

When the time came, he enlisted in the Tolkeen military, ready to serve the city that he loved. However, he was disappointed in Lazlo and the other nation states that refused to side with Tolkeen. He couldn’t understand why they wouldn’t help and somewhat oblivious to the change in attitudes of the Tolkeen elite.

He spent a lot of the war in the repair workshops, fixing the non-magical equipment being used mostly by the mercenaries and assorted groups that had sided with Tolkeen. He held the rank of sergeant, though it mostly did not matter.

During the initial exchanges, he went out to one of battlegrounds to provide emergency repairs, when the defensive position he was at was attacked by Coalition forces mostly to prevent them from interfering with a convoy. The commander of the Platoon attacking was Lieutenant Gonzalez and things got tense as the fighting ended up in close quarters combat. Konrad discovered he had a bit of a flair for violence.

When the Coalition forces were beaten back, he had impressed Lieutenant Gonzalez as they had to negotiate a ceasefire as most of the Tolkeen officers had been injured and somehow he was the ranking person still standing. So weakened were both groups and because it was night, they were beset by a band of vampires, which did manage to take a few people on both sides, but by combining their efforts, they were able to survive the night. The Coalition forces withdrew, their mission complete and Lieutenant Gonzalez saluted them before leaving.

For everything he had done, the Tolkeen survivors gave him the equipment that had belonged to their dead mechanic. He spent a lot of his spare time refitting the Triax armour to fit him, even allowing for his tail to operate normally, whilst also trying to learn more about vampires.

Then came the Sorcerer’s Revenge, a sudden blitzkrieg designed to break the Coalition forces.
Konrad barely survived the Blitzkreig, mostly due to the bloodthirsty behaviour of some of his side. He now understood why Lazlo and the others had not joined with Tolkeen, especially having seen the Daemonix in action.

In the chaos that followed, he was assigned to a strike team to provide technical support against one of General Drogue’s camps. Most of the team was captured by now promoted Captain Gonzalez who was based at the camp. He was able to convince the Captain that was going on at the camp was wrong and he assisted in enabling the escape of most of the camp inhabitants, whilst Captain Gonzalez disappeared into the wilderness.

When he returned to Tolkeen, he insisted that his family flee and head somewhere safe. With Free Quebec no longer fighting the Coalition, he knew that Tolkeen would be hard hit, but he resolved to help protect the people of Tolkeen as best he could.

When the hammer came down on Tolkeen and the Coalition attacked from the North, his command structure disintegrated and chaos reigned in the streets, especially when the Dragons fled. Gathering up panicking civilians, he was trying to get people to safety when a rift gathered up and deposited them on the edge of Tolkeen territory and two days in the future. Konrad had the only vehicle and very few of the 50 or so people with him were combat capable. They would not be able to return to Tolkeen for help, so they set out away from the fighting hoping to find some help.

By luck and happenstance, a few days later and running low on food and water, they would encounter the first scouts from Castle Refuge and be escorted to safety.

T4-2044 Flexible Armored Suit (Patron Item)
Image
Created by Claude Pedrovski AKA The Fabricator himself, this suit of light armor was built to assist the Fabricators Inc. Elimination Teams in their wetwork. One non-powered operative on the team wore the armor and with the razor deployed, blocked any transmissions from leaving the site. With no way to call for back up, their targets were easily captured, or worse.
  • • +3 Armor and +2 Toughness
    • Gain an additional +4 to resist electricity, radiation, and ion attacks. Alternately, the wearer gains +4 armor versus these effects.
    • No Environmental Protection
    • No Strength Minimum. (8 lb)
    Features:
    • Built-in mini-computers for basic functions
    • Communications system with a 10 mile range; 20 mile range with Razor deployed.
    • Public-address loudspeakers
    • Thermal vision mode for vision
    • Integrated frequency absorption razor
    • • Razor is collapsible, so this light suit may be used as any normal light suit, which is to say it can be worn under clothes or even in power armor, though it does not stack with the power armor's toughness or armor. Razor must be deployed to be used. Cannot deploy if in a confined space like a PA suit or under cramped conditions.
    • • Create radio interference at will; this imposes a -4 to any check to communicate with radios. Communication done without a check automatically fails.
    • • Dampen electrical energy, causing attacks of that type to do only half damage within the area.
    • • • Both effects occur within a Medium Burst Template.
    • • You gain +2 to Notice and Survival checks to navigate.
    • • You also gain +2 to Notice and Knowledge (Electronics) checks to locate the source of signals.
