Special Abilities
- Bizarre Physiology: Those unfamiliar with Cactus Person biology suffer a −4 penalty to Healing and cybernetics checks. Juicer and Crazy augmentations don’t work for them. Compatible medical supplies/services and cybernetics cost quadruple the listed price.
- Cannot Speak: Have no vocal cords and communicate entirely through a weaker form of mind link (which they activate with no roll or ISP cost as a free action, Range of Spirit × 4).
- Doesn't Breathe: Do not breathe, instead drawing necessary gases from their foods—they aren't affected by inhaled toxins, can't drown, and don't suffocate in a vacuum.
- Disease and Poison Resistant: Rarely affected by common earthly poison and disease, and gain a +4 bonus to resist when they are susceptible.
- D-Bee (Major): Initial Reactions start at Unfriendly, or Hostile for human supremacists. Those with an Unfriendly or lower Reaction will refuse to sell wares or provide services such as healing, repairs, etc. Failed social checks with Hostile parties often result in violence.
- Hunted (Minor): Evil bandits, slavers, and sorcerers harvest their blood for alchemical concoctions -and because it just plain tastes good. Tribal Simvan enjoy harassing them.
- Low Light Vision: Cactus People can see into the ultraviolet range—ignore penalties for Dim and Dark Illumination.
- Natural Psionics: Cactus People begin with the Arcane Background (Psionics) Edge, a d6 Psionics skill, and the following three powers: detect/conceal arcana, empathy, and mind link. If a Clszymllxbrrxxyfwrr chooses an Iconic Framework providing Arcane Background (Psionics), he follows all the normal rules for the Framework except three of his starting powers are the ones listed above (even if not normally allowed to that Framework). The Clszymllxbrrxxyfwrr gains two additional powers to his starting total (e.g., a Cactus Person Burster starts with five powers).
- Regeneration: Cactus People may make a natural healing roll daily to recover Wounds, or Injuries once all Wounds have been healed.
- Sunlight Dependency: Cactus People need an hour of sunlight each day. If they don’t absorb enough ultraviolet rays they become Fatigued each day until Incapacitated. A day after that, they perish. Each hour spent sunning themselves restores a level of Fatigue. Fully covering clothing and armor blocks their ability to absorb sunlight.
- Restricted Paths: Cactus People have no capacity for speech and cannot take Arcane Background (Magic) or (Miracles), nor any Iconic Framework that includes them.
