OK, First post here (although I've been browsing for a while)
We are starting a new game via skype to bring the old group together. With the new book out, a boatload of possibilities have opened up!
I've been creating a character with the latent dracomorphosis quality (hoping to be able to actually keep it a surprise for the other players due to not meeting in person) but have a few questions:
Old rules: drakes can only take delta-grade.
New rules state: "Drakes can accept any augmentation, but only in their human form. These implants do not carry over to their dracoform, but aren’t expelled by the body—they simply disappear and their bonuses are not available while the character is in dracoform. There is no known augmentation currently available for dracoforms."
Am I reading this right? Drakes can have basic cyber/bio/gene etc?
The cost for drake/latent drake is a racial cost, not a positive quality? (and therefore does not apply to the 35BP max) The book only specifically states "The Drake quality does not count against a character’s limit of 35 BP worth of Positive qualities at character generation." (note this specifically rules out latent drake by my rules-lawyer-ish reading)
All drakes breathe fire (elemental attack) and to change this to something different you have to pay 15 karma. No BP cost means you can't start with anything else (unless you use the alternate karma creation system)
There's more, but I have to head to work...
