World backgroundThrough the eyes of the sun tiger by Minister Kamlith About 200 years ago a world war ended in wide spread destruction across this world. Known as the Petimite or Old war , it was said to have been started by an argument between the nations of Petime and Numinia on whos side stood the Abiatic republic . It is said that the world at the time was too advanced to fight a war as we know them now , so instead sabotage , espionage , sanctions and other forms of diplomatic pressure were used until the world of Torn was a ripe powder keg waiting to explode. Unable to stand anymore, the people began to rise up and take power , this was when the war truly began . The government of Petime was overthrown the radicals and military actions were started against neighbouring Numinia and the republic. For nearly 8 years war raged and the other peace loving so called humane nations did nothing but stand back and watch as our world was destroyed by war. The end of the old war came with the arrival of our saviour in 2121BD (Before the disaster ) , his name was Heamlor Kelip and he bought with him the great sun tiger burned the sky and turned our enemies armies into the ash and dusts of the great deserts . Long may we remember, and burn the enemies of the tiger!

Armour rolls and Damage Armour rolls are made on a D8 and you must roll equal to or under your total armour . If successful you negate the attacks damage entirely ( If you fail you take -1 health) . Before you roll check if the attack had an AP value , if so reduce your armour value by this much. If this takes your armour value to zero you get no save, if it takes it to a negative number then add this number to the health damage you suffer.

Advanced Gear in the world of Torn

Suan Divine Blade of Ja de Back story (22AD) The divine blade was created of a mixture of ancient technique and even more ancient technologies by Jutan Shu , and Gunter Heimlich . It was created as a gift for the Shu-Suan Emperor , however it never made it to the imperial capital as the convoy it travelled on was attacked by what the only survivor insisted were zombies . The survivor was imprisoned for his insanity as he was obviously lying. The current whereabouts of the blade is unknown. AP-2 (4 if used in two hands) Specials*Cutting edge Enemy Armour if any, is decreased by one additional point after applying AP , this does not add damage however. *Made by the master- Counts as a Katana. *Gods Skill- 1/day add +2 Melee weapon skill for 1 round. *Hibernia-Gatea The weapon has a powerful secret , it has an onboard AI within its infinitely complex circuits , it carries the ancient knowledge of one of the Aesir sent to close this planet off from Aasgard many centuries ago before the disaster or the war. Game mechanically it helps the Hero concentrate on tasks of the mind, when close at hand, granting a +1 to the Learn stat of the hero who owns the weapon.

Rapid-fi re Daemons Karlias and Ebaden . Back story (98BD) an old man sat alone in a shed with his sidearms on the table in front of him, a decision to be made, a fate to determine. His family protected an ancient secret of biblical proportions. He stepped out of the shed and down the alley to the main street. On the other side of town he saw them, Angry Jed, Billy Murphane, and Cockney Williams. I call you out Jed. And as the leader of your gang id settle this towns dispute with you man to man. If I drop you then your men leave and they dont come back. Deal Sheriff.Said Jed. The old man smiled, he was old but he was good. And a good man needed nether God nor the Devil to kill this braggart bastard. Jed drew first, but the old man drew faster. Bang, bang! Jed dropped to the ground missing his left eye, half his skull, and most of his brains. Not that he had any brains anyway, that was always Billys department. Bang! The old man looked surprised. Holding his hand to his chest it quickly went crimson, he looked up at Billys smoking gun and then to his daughter and only child saying No .....Dont.... before falling dead. Tears in her eyes the young girl (Jessica) ran to her father, she was only ten but in this part of the world you learnt about death young and fast. Billy- Well look at that Williams, looks like I just got me a promotion, now I think this town owes us some free whisky . Jessica Whispering under her breath as she grabbed her fathers guns. Dont go pa dont go. But he was gone already. Her eyes welled up even more. He had taught her a family saying as soon as she could talk and always used to say it, it just seemed appropriate now. She stood up and turned to see the two men laughing and walking towards the saloon. I call thee Karlias, and Ebaden to take the souls off these two honourless men, and to do with them my most unholy vengeance, that I may feel no terror or fear with the slaying off them or their kind. Jed As he turns and smiles- Stupid girl, put down the sixs.

13 | P a g e

Jessica- May I unleash an evil upon this world to destroy all evil, I pledge my soul to thee Karlias, Ebaden, I drag thee from Hell ............ I SUMMON THEE WITH VENGENCE. As she screamed the last part it was as though Jed felt something wasnt right all of a sudden. Reaching for his guns, he didnt just feel it , he knew it. It was as though she slowed time, her arms moved so fast to his eyes that they were as a blur. Bang bang! His guns were blown from his hands. Bang bang! Williams took a round threw each eye. Jed- As Jessica walked up and stood above his now cowering form P-p-p-please girl d-dontt kill me, Ill leave, I promise. It was a deep, male voice that came back at him, much to his surprise. I didnt disarm you to hear you beg, all we want is your undivided fear. Followed by demonic laughter playing threw his head. Jed stared wide eyed up above the girl in abject terror now as he could clearly see the two demonic figures looming above her. BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!!

There are two guns in the set and both are required otherwise they count as a Handgun .5 with only 6 ammo ( six shooter). AP-6 Range-30 Ammo- Unique ammo of cold iron is provided by the demons via their contract with you threw hell. Enemys no bigger than a tank sized vehicle always pass armour saves on no better than a 6 or less. Specials*The deal of the century- This is quite literal . You must say the words while killing a person or people of the most terrible nature , and holding both guns . This grants you use of the weapons and increases your natural lifespan by 666 years . * Karlias , and Ebaden , the dead eyed bastards of hell- The demons themselves within these guns make your aim true or truer . They grant you a guns skill with these weapons of +4 , if you already have +4 or better they instead increase your skill by 1 point.

Aesir Thunder Shields These belts have been found in many excavations and at least five are known to be in the hands of the Axium government . They look like and generally function as a simple if highly valuable and ornate looking belt buckle . If you can however manage to power them they form a solid shell of crackling thunder and lightning that absorbs the kinetic energy of incoming objects and numbs the hands of your foes. Specials*Call the thunder The Axium power pack used on the only functional known models provides enough power to make the shield function for a limited time only ( 1 combat/day ) and must be recharged after use ( It seems to do this by its self ) .It costs 1 action point to activate the shield . *Odins Protection- The shield once active reduces the AP of all physical attacks against you by 3.
