Alternate Manimal Sub-Types


A Mutant's Best Friend


On this month's episode of Glowburn, I came up with an alternate Manimal Sub-Types in case judges and players want to embrace their inner canine. While we posted these in the show notes, I wanted to feature the list right here on my blog as well...

... what? You didn't listen to Glowburn this month yet!?! 

Let's fix that... just follow this irradiated link.  

Okay, on to the list:

Canine Manimals


  • Mechanics:  Canine Manimals have a terrific sense of smell that effectively allows them to “see” using their nose.  This means that they are never blinded unless both their nose and eyes are impaired.  But given the sensitivity of their noses, they are especially susceptible to any artifacts or other kinds of powers that can be breathed in.  Canine Manimals suffer a -1d on their Fortitude Saves vs. these kinds of attacks.

    • 28 - 30: Mutt!  Roll twice and combine the table. This result can be achieved more than once, and the PC keeps gaining additional breeds.  
    • Hyper Mutts!  
      • Mutts are created with a roll of a 28-30, with an additional breed tossed in randomly for each point of luck (or negative luck) modifier.
      • So having a Luck Modifier guarantees a Mutt, and rolling Mutt! just means more Mutt
