	<strong>Honour</strong>: Show benevolence to the weak and the worthy. Repay others with how they have treated you. Keep all oaths and promises.</li>
	<li>
	<strong>Self-control</strong>: Show prudence in all things. Do not let blood lust blind you. Fight only when it is right to fight.</li>
</ul>
<hr>
<h1>Your Starting Weapons</h1>
<h2>Wicked Weapon</h2>
<p class="redactor_box">
	This is a hand weapon, never a gun. It is usually crude and vicious, and was made by one of&nbsp;your people.
</p>
<ul>
	<li>
	<strong>Fang Knife</strong> (+hand): A blade fashioned from a massive fang or claw of a vanquished&nbsp;enemy. Its handle is a thick thigh bone wrapped in stained, darkened leather straps.</li>
	<li>
	<strong>Glass Ripper</strong> (+hand +AP): A short, jagged blade made of flint or obsidian, or another&nbsp;naturally jagged material. It is wickedly hooked, with serrations and a triangular profile.</li>
	<li>
	<strong>Katar </strong>(+hand +valuable): A broad leaf-shaped blade with a horizontal grip instead of&nbsp;a handle, used with a punching motion. It is made of beautifully carved and polished&nbsp;brass, which makes it valuable. An antiquities dealer or an anthropologist will find it very&nbsp;valuable indeed.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Elegant Weapon</h2>
<p class="redactor_box">
	In your travels with the Doctor, you have acquired, bartered, and bought quite a few weapons&nbsp;beyond the ken of your people.
</p>
<ul style="">
	<li>
	<b style="font-weight: bold; background-color: initial;">Force Sword</b><span style="font-weight: 400; background-color: initial;"> (+AP +hi-tech +near): When deactivated, it resembles a balanced haft of&nbsp;a sword, made of a lightweight metal alloy or crystal. When activated, a glowing blade of energy capable of cutting through the densest materials rips out of the top,</span>
	</li>
	<li>
	<b style="background-color: initial;">Baroque Laser Rifle</b> (+hi-tech +refill +valuable): A polished brass and chrome rifle,&nbsp;with a long, fluted barrel and a shoulder stock that curves into the receiver. Bright metal cooling lines branch out of the main reaction chamber, which is comprised of crystal that glows green when fired. It fires a hellishly bright green bolt of energy that sizzles as it slices through the air.&nbsp;</li>
	<li>
	<b style="background-color: initial;">Sonic Gauntlet</b> (+stun +area +hi-tech +loud +implanted): An array of fine silver metal&nbsp;filaments worked in a lacy network into the flesh of your arm. A round metal emitter is set into your palm. You simply point it at your enemy and will it to fire, and a cone of sonic compression barks out, causing tissue damage and ruptured blood vessels.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Nightmare Weapon</h2>
<p class="redactor_box">
	The Doctor probably wouldn’t have approved of the use of these weapons under any&nbsp;circumstances.
</p>
<p>
	<b style="background-color: initial;">
	</b>
</p>
<ul>
	<li>
	<b style="font-weight: bold; background-color: initial;">Hellbore </b>(+area +refill +hi-tech +far): This monstrosity resembles a shoulder mounted&nbsp;missile. It fires a massive bolt of energy, which erupts into an expanding sphere of&nbsp;superheated death on impact. Once fired, it takes about 30 seconds for the reaction&nbsp;chamber to refill. It makes a distinctive whine during refilling and firing.</li>
	<li>
	<b style="background-color: initial;">
	<b style="background-color: initial;">Swarm Projector</b> </b>(+AP +loud +area +far): A two-meter-long metal tube wrapped in thick&nbsp;black straps of unidentifiable material. There are no visible mechanisms integrated into itat all. When fired, a cloud of black mite-like particles rushes out of the end, enveloping the&nbsp;target(s). The mites chew away everything inside the cloud, leaving only bloody scraps.&nbsp;The mites are indiscriminate; if you get caught in the cloud, they will eat you too.</li>
	<li>
	<b style="font-weight: bold; background-color: initial;">Psychic Drill</b><span style="background-color: initial;"> (+stun +loud): A glassy sphere about the size of a large marble with a long,&nbsp;curved metal spike growing out of the side. When pointed at a sentient being, a lance of&nbsp;psychic energy bores into the victim’s brain, destroying tissue and portions of the mind&nbsp;alike. Whole sections of the victim’s memories and personality are removed. In NPCs, this&nbsp;effect is permanent; in PCs, it slowly returns after the damage is healed. Even though this&nbsp;weapon is +stun, it is still deadly; your opponent <u><em>Tempts Fate</em></u>.</span>
	</li>
</ul>
<p class="redactor_box">
	<strong>Spend 1-Fate every time you use a nightmare weapon.</strong>
