Editor's Note
UNDEAD SLAYERTest Build
Undead Slayers are an elite force of True Atlanteans warriors focused on fighting supernatural evil. Like wandering samurai, they move from place to place in order to protect the innocent, free victims of slavery, and destroy evil. While they abhor all evil, their true nemsis are vampires, vampire intelligences and the minions of Splugorth. To accomplish this profound mission, Undead Slayers, are gifted with powerful magic tattoos that grant amazing powers and abilities.
HERO’S JOURNEY (FOUR ROLLS)

INKED UP
As a canvas of mystical tattoos, Undead Slayers have Arcane Background (Magic) with the Tattoo Magic Edge and access to the following powers: armor, banish, beast friend, blind, bolt, boost/lower Trait, damage field, darkvision, deflection, detect arcana, environmental protection, farsight, fly, greater healing, light, shape change, smite, speak language, speed, and zombie.
UNDEAD SLAYER ABILITIES AND BONUSES
Tattooed Crusaders: As living weapons against supernatural evil Undead Slayers begin with Arcane Background (Magic), the Tattoo Magic Edge, a d6 in Tattoo Magic, 20 PPE, and five tattoos (powers and/or abilities).
Undead Slayers are also eligible for the Adept, Champion, and Holy Warrior edges, using their Arcane Background and Tattoo Magic skill in place of Miracles and Faith.
Inherently Magical: With mystical energy from tattoos coursing through their veins Undead Slayers are powerful magical beings in their own right. They gain an additional 10 PPE (included above) and gain 10 PPE instead of 5 when taking the Power Points edge.
Fearless Fighters: Trained for generations to fight the evils of the Megaverse, nothing can extinguish a Undead Slayer’s resolve. They start with two combat edges of choice, ignoring rank requirements, and begin with d8 Fighting.
Tattoo Resilience: Due to their large number of Magic Tattoos Undead Slayers gain extraordinary endurance and resistance to damage granting them +2 Toughness.
UNDEAD SLAYER COMPLICATIONS
Touchy Feely: Activating tattoos requires touching them. Clothes, armor, restraints, and other impediments to touching tattoos makes them impossible to activate.
Bestowed Abilities: While using tattoos is a skill, their power is given from another not inherently learned. As a result Undead Slayers cannot draw PPE from ley lines and their tattoos gain no additional benefits from ley lines or nexus points.
Price of Power: Acquiring magic tattoos takes its toll on the soul. Excruciating pain, fatigue, and long recoveries have a cumulative effect - not to mention constant exposure to the worst the Megaverse has to offer. Undead Slayers must roll on the Psyche Degradation Table for each rank after Novice.
Scary Focused: Undead Slayers only exist to destroy the supernatural. Their single minded determination and focus can be unnerving to even the most loyal allies. They suffer -2 Charisma in most social situations due to their burning intensity.
The Feeling is Mutual: Vampires, demons, the Federation of Magic, the Coalition, you name an evil faction and you can bet they despise Undead Slayers. Any evil beings treat Undead Slayers with a “kill on sight” attitude.
