Ravager

Character Paths

Under a hail of arrows and spears, the muscle-bound freak charges with surprising grace. Each step, leap-like, crushes cobblestone with alarming ease. One cannot ignore his presence. Barely dodging a blow to the flank, he greets the new threat with a glance and a snarl. “You should stay put”, he commands, a monstrous growl in his voice. With a pained grunt, he grips the haft of his axe, his arms now grotesque and hulking. He smiles and readies his first strike. Rarely did he need a second one

PASSIVE

- Before rolling to attack, you can decide to use the lower roll for the Attack Total, and the higher one for the degree of Success (damage).
- Increase your starting Health by 4 for Torso and Limbs.
Ravagers make the most out of their aberrant physiology. When exerting strength, their muscle mass expands uncontrollably, precluding the use of armors, shields and all but the loosest of clothes. As a result, the first trick they learn is to alter their skin into monstrous, thick hides, as horrible to look at as they are hard to pierce.

Ravagers are known to subconsciously suppress their full might, under pain of self-destruction. Constantly teetering on the edge, they learn to briefly tap into unsustainable levels of strength to deliver a single, devastating blow.
