====== Cyberwarrior (Advanced Class) ====== **Storyteller House Rule** A Cyberwarrior is an integrated killing machine, a combination soldier and weapon of war. Cyberwarriors are designed to be the ultimate warriors, generally as the result of extensive experimentation by a wealthy nation's military. Armed with impressive cybernetic augmentation, Cyberwarriors can be dropped into any conflict with little need for support or supply. Cyberwarriors can specialize to act as commandos, Special Forces strike teams, or even hostage rescue troops, or be general warriors prepared for any circumstance. A Cyberwarrior is set apart from other cyborgs by the invasive and preeminent nature of his implants. They aren't mere tools forhis use, they're a growing and dominant partof his body. To ensure that an enemy who captures a cyberwarrior doesn't take his implants, the implants are imbued with a limited ability to grow and respond to outside stimulus. Though not quite as advanced as nanites,the cybernetic systems can modify, repair, and expand themselves. As a Cyberwarrior grows more experienced, his cybernetic de-vices literally grow with him, eating away at his biological organs and replacing them with more effective cybernetic alternatives. The fastest path into this advanced class is from the Strong hero basic class, though other paths are possible. =====Requirements===== To qualify to become a Cyberwarrior, a character must fulfill the following criteria. **Base Attack Bonus:** +3. **Skills:** [[Knowledge (Military) (Skill)|Knowledge (Military)]] 3 ranks. **Feats:** [[Implant Awareness (Feat)|Implant Awareness]], [[Personal Firearms Proficiency (Feat)|Personal Firearms Proficiency]]. **Implants:** One [[Internal Weapon Mount (Cyberware)|internal]] or [[External Weapon Mount (Cyberware)|external weapon mount]]. =====Class Information===== The following information pertains to the Cyberwarrior advanced class. **Hit Die:** 1d8 **Action Points:** 6 + one-half character level, rounded down, every time the Cyberwarrior attains a new level in this class. =====Class Skills===== The Cyberwarrior’s class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are: [[Climb (Skill)|Climb]] (Str), [[Computer Use (Skill)|Computer Use]] (Int), [[Drive (Skill)|Drive]] (Dex), [[Jump (Skill)|Jump]] (Str), [[Listen (Skill)|Listen]] (Wis), [[Pilot (Skill)|Pilot]] (Dex), [[Spot (Skill)|Spot]] (Wis), [[Survival (Skill)|Survival]] (Wis), [[Swim (Skill)|Swim]] (Str). **Skill Points at Each Level:** 2 + Int modifier ===== CLASS FEATURES ===== The following class features pertain to the Cyberwarrior advanced class. =====Class Features===== The following features pertain to the Cyberwarrior advanced class. ==== Expanded Implants ==== At 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, and 10th level, a Cyberwarrior gains an additional cybernetic implant.
