TRI-STAT TRANSHUMAN SPACE

by Anthony Jackson

BASICS

Point Level

The recommended point level for TriStat Transhuman is 30-50 points, of which no more than 20 may be spent on stats (if desired, additional stat points may be taken at double cost). This restriction may be relaxed for a particularly high powered game, but characters in Transhuman Space are supposed to be distinguished by their Transhumanity, not by simple high attributes.

Character Types

Human: Human characters are treated as human in almost all societies, though they may have minor genetic alterations and may have minor biomods and nanomods. In general, special attributes costing more than 1 point are not appropriate to human characters.
Parahuman and Bioroid: Parahuman characters are significantly less human; in many societies they should take levels of Owned, and/or the defect Limited Rights.
Ghost and SAI: Ghosts and SAIs are much more complicated, because one can rationally separate 'mind' and 'body', and more than one body may be possessed; electronic intelligences usable as PCs should have some sort of socially acceptable body.

Normal Attributes

As Transhuman Space isn't a particularly cinematic setting, there are a few normal attributes that are inappropriate, as they represent abilities that, while appropriate in many anime games, are beyond human limits. These include:

Extra Attacks: Available as a Biopower, but not available otherwise.
Focused/Massive Damage: Super martial arts and killing tanks with pistols are not a part of the setting. The combined effect of these two attributes should be limited to +5 damage ranged, +10 damage melee.
Gun Bunny/Kensai: Certain abilities may be considered silly or inappropriate, such as portable armory and katanaspace.
Personal Gear: As a rule of thumb, an item costing more than $10,000 or with a legality class below 3 is a major item; an item costing more than $2,000 or with a legality class below 5 is a minor item. This may vary based on campaign location.
Unique Attribute: Wealth: The wealth attribute in the main BESM book is acceptable. Characters in fifth wave nations effectively have wealth level 1, but the vast majority of it will be tied up in things that are not relevant to adventuring.

Special Attributes

In general, any special attribute that you can come up with a plausible explanation for is acceptable. The templates should give ideas for what is appropriate.

Features

To simplify templates, I'm following the SAS rule of 2 features per level, rather than a varying number of features based on the actual level. If desired, most templates have the features split out; you can compute the real number of features and then determine the level required if you prefer. In general, a feature is a half-point ability, corresponding to a limited version of a standard ability, or some other minor effect. Some examples:

Alcohol Tolerance: as Special Defense(Alcohol)-1.
Ambidextrous: Both arms are equal. Free with extra arms.
Bump of Direction: You do not easily get lost, giving a -4 bonus to any Mind rolls to avoid getting lost. Even without any information, you can usually make a Mind roll to figure out something about your location, though depending on the nature of your talent this could be blocked.
Comms: You have one or more types of communicator, from the following types: radio, IR, laser, ultrasound.
Detect: You can detect unusual effects. Unlike Sensors, this is normally not usable for targeting, nor is it capable of analysis.
Flesh Pockets: You can store small objects inside of you.
Fur: Counts as 1 point of armor; also gives a -1 bonus to Body tests vs cold, a +1 penalty to Body tests vs heat.
Microgravity Biochemistry: Your body doesn't break down due to extended exposure to zero G.
Night Vision: You have a limited form of enhanced vision, granting a -4 bonus to vision, only usable to negate penalties for darkness.
Prehensile Toes: You can grip with your toes. This is not as useful as extra limbs, since you cannot generally walk while doing this, and legs are not good manipulators even with grippers at the end of them.
Reduced Sleep: You don't need as much sleep as most people, and sleep easily.
Sanitized Metabolism: You have a very clean metabolism. Gives a -1 bonus to social rolls where being clean would be particularly useful, and a +2 penalty to attempts to track you by smell.
Sharp Teeth: You have natural weapons and can bite for +2 damage, but unlike the Bite natural weapon, you cannot latch on to the target and keep biting.

New Unique Attributes

Armor Variable: Shorthand for whatever combination of Light and Heavy armor gives the desired armor level.
Biopower 1/level: Gives 2.5 points (round down) in attributes, not including any other ability that gives points in attributes, per level. Activating biopower attributes costs 4 energy times the point cost of the attribute, and lasts for one minute. Biopower is mechanically equivalent to spending 1-6 points on magic/psionics, and buying all magical abilities with still and silent; this notation is primarily a shorthand.
Computer 1/level: Allows a person or device to do a variety of normal computational tasks. Gives +2 per level on Mind rolls for tasks where a computer would help, such as number-crunching and data lookup. For TS purposes, assume this corresponds to a complexity of (Computer level)+4. Does not allow a vehicle to drive itself; buy AI instead or as well. Does not include skill enhancement software, but a computer bought as equipment may take Highly Skilled and have skills.
Cybershell 4/level: Not technically a new attribute, this is just Own a Big Mecha renamed. Cybershells generally have Reduced Capacity (-2) and AI level 3 or higher. The GM should not allow socially acceptable cybershells (such as bioshells or cyberdolls) to be bought with this advantage, as players may then be tempted to send out their incredibly powerful cyborgs out to do their work instead of risking themselves. If the concept calls for remote control, either use lesser shells (Buzzbots and Volksrobots won't be treated like humans, but they won't make people call out the SWAT team either) or take the Remote Control attribute.
Enhanced Time Sense 2: Grants a +4 bonus to sense rolls related to spotting short-duration events, and allows perceiving events too fast for a normal person to see at all. Also grants +1 defensive combat value.
Micromanipulators 1/level: Allows both sensing and working with very small objects; each level reduces the smallest size object that can be examined or manipulated by a factor of 10. Has no effect on distance perception. Without this advantage, 100mm objects may be manipulated without any roll, 10mm objects with a Body check, 1mm with a Body check with a +4 penalty; objects of 1/100 that size may be seen.
Remote Control 1/2: Your normal body for civilian life is in fact a socially acceptable remote controlled cybershell; your real body is stored somewhere safe, or you may be a disembodied mind. Physical attributes and defects are assumed to apply to your remote-controlled body, not your natural body. At level 1, communications jamming results in your body shutting down; at level 2, your body is assumed to be running a level 4 AI which takes over in the event of jamming. Destruction of the remote control body is annoying (and expensive) but causes no actual harm.
Special Movement: Zero-G 1: You are not normally penalized in zero G; if a roll is required, make the roll at a -4 bonus.
Weapon Ability: Radiation +x: Produces huge levels of radiation. Does the base weapon damage immediately, ignoring armor, and again every day for 2d days. Special defense (radiation) divides this by 5. Against electronic devices, does instant but not continuing damage. Against other inanimate objects, does no damage. Counts as 4 abilities, or may do 1/5 damage as only 2 abilities. 1 point of damage is about a hundred rads.

Equipment

Unless noted, all items are merely details; their presence or absence is background detail, and should be specified in a way fitting the character's wealth.

Computers

Any complexity 5 or less computer or program, unless illegal or an AI, is a standard item. Any complexity 6 computer or program, unless illegal or an AI, is a minor item. Any complexity 7 computer or program is is a major item. This doesn't apply to computers built into cybershells or vehicles.

Spacecraft

There's a lot of information about spacecraft design in appendix A. For the most part, it isn't useful. In practice, I don't recommend trying to use spacecraft as anything other than plot devices. The recommended design method is taking one of the sample vehicles below and adjusting slightly. Most normally have a level 5 AI for +10 points or level 6 for +12 points.
