hey everyone...
Me and a friend are sitting around its 4 in the morning and we thought up
an Archetype...
It's the Bad Influence.
Not sure if this treads on anything else..it is 4 so sorry if it does.
The Bad Influence
Through out life we are costantly hearing of people hwo have negativly
influenced people in any degree, wether it was Marilyn Manson or Eminem.
These "Bad Influences" channeled power from some past Influence, Possibly
the one people remember as Satan, seeing as there IS no God or Satan.
Taboo: The Bad influence must never o anything to contradict hi nature.
with out good reason... Eminem would have broken taboo, but after hugging
Elton John, he turned and Flipped off the audience, with who knows how many
children watching. this Saved him from breaking Taboo, because he Was still
being a bad influence by leading the people on then flipping them
off...which was the crucial part.
Signs: Gothic Make-up, BIG ASS HATS(in some cases), Or anything that
personifies the Bad Influences genre. (Eminem has the typical Rapper Motif,
5 feet of boxer shorts, and pants at his ankles. And Marilyn Manson with
his wacked out Gothic, Bondage stuff.) You get the idea.
Channels: 1-50%
The Bad Influence can add a +10% shift to any skill as long as the current
roll is below his Bad Influence skill and could be considered part of the
BI character.
(Ex: Driving Recklessly, Fighting, Shooting guns(At people),Charming
someone for less then noble purposes.)
51-70%- The BI is now a Local MEnace and everyone in his vicinity(City or
Town) Knowns about him for some reason or another, none of them good. But!
Any attempt at Non-Physical Harm thtat could be done to the BI
automatically take a -20% shift to any skills tat would do so.. So anyone
trying to Smear Eminem takes a -20% shift to that roll, which is probably
why he gets off on all thsoes charges so much. This could also work on
anyone trying to Find that person and MEAN him harm. But that is up to the
GM.
71-90%- Everyone you meet instinctivly knows your a Bad Influence on
people. And knows that for some reason. Although. The BI is allways
succesfull at whatever he tries,(Within reason, No Owning the World) IF
there is even a slim chance that he could attain that goal he will
ventually do it. (GM's decision) That's gotta be how MArilyn Manson got so
popular, Cause personally can't see any other way.
91+% The BI Now attracts Loyal Followers, that will eventually find their
way to him, either the screaming fan of Eminem or the burnt out junkie of
Manson's, It is all up to the BI to take them under his wing and ask
whatever of them, And The faithfull Follower will do just that to the best
of their abilities, Unless it is something againts the Archetype, so Go
help that lady across the street wouldn't work, they would just look at
you. But Go steal that old bag's Walker, and kick her into on coming
traffic would in an Instant, If this goes against the Followers Self, thn
they make the roll, if they fail they don;t do it, if they pass they can do
it.
God Walker Ability 99%- We;ve decided that the Most memorable Godwalker and
98%er that is Fictional anyway would have o be Darth Vader(98%) and The
Emperor(99%)
The Godwalker's Ability allows them to make a HOR(House of
Renunciation)Change to the person, but that will only change them to A
"Bad" way of living.
Obviously theere is a Soul ceck required if they fail. They switch, if they
pass...well they pass. GM can assign any Mod's.(It's now 4 30 so any HOR
rules I JUST DON"T HAVE THEM!)
Vader obviously tried this channel on Luke(Join the Darkside) but it didn't
removed the Godwalker, but He did a noble act because the Emperor was going
to kill his son...So he brok Taboo..So no God walker status...hehehe...
WEll thats all i have to say for now....I'm gonna finish this pop, then
grab another...then maybe some donuts and coffee...Well everyoen Enjoy and
Critize your fingers out.. but i feel good about this one..I reallly do!
