ost of the gear in this chapter is available

in the Cyberpapacy with the right
connections, although the rarer items
require a mission to obtain, a Perk, or might be
found with the play of Destiny cards.
See the Gear chapter in Torg Eternity for more
information on requisitioning equipment from the
Delphi Council or using personal resources to buy
items.

inDiViDualizeD gear
Many monastic orders specialize in the manufacture
and assembly of cyberware, weapons, vehicles,
and other goods. Individual monks often write
in-jokes or add artistic cosmetic flourishes into
the devices they work on, including, on occasion,
dirty drawings on the engine parts of Samson
GEAR
hovertanks, or wings on a GodMeeter.
This can even apply to other devices, which can
even modify the artificial intelligence contained
within them, such as a gun that is rather snarky
because the monk writing its routines was in a foul
mood that day.

holy itemS
In addition to cyberware, many high tech devices
are manufactured in the Cyberpapacy. Also, the
Church can occasionally create holy items.
Holy items are objects or devices that have
spiritual power, provided by the Spirit Axiom of
the Cyberpapacy, and require Spirit Axiom 14, or
they cause a contradiction. A character may only
carry and gain the benefit of a single permanent
(non-consumable) Holy item. If more than one
Holy item is carried, none of them function.

magic itemS
Although the Magic Axiom supports Enchanted
items, earlier purges and a loss of knowledge has
significantly hampered the creation of magic items
in the Cyberpapacy. Most magic items are those
smuggled in from Aysle and the Nile Empire, but
there are rumors of some witches redisocvering
the art of enchanting crystals. Some amulets from
Core Earth can appear in black markets, but these
don’t actually do anything.

TRIGGER LOCKS
The high-tech weaponry found in the
Cyberpapacy is keyed to the individual who
owns it. Generally this means only that owner
can fire or activate the weapon. The AI that
determines this can be fooled though with a
Hard (DN 14) computers test, which allows it to
function for one scene, but unless the AI is reset
at a chop shop or similar location, the AI will
realize the deception and lock that user out for
good.
Image Inducer: This hologram emitter is an
advanced version of projection clothing that
allows the wearer to appear, at least upon cursory
inspection, as someone else. It can even allow
edeinos, elves, and dwarves to appear human.
Image inducers cannot be used to duplicate a
specific person’s appearance, and while upon
cursory inspection it will fool a guard, if the guard
is taking particular care and attention, his evidence
analysis test to detect the ruse is Favored. This
device does not function in the GodNet.
MAS SmartGun Attachment: This weapon
upgrade enhances a single ranged weapon. It has
no effect on its own other than to allow the use of
smart ammunition (see Gear in Torg Eternity) and
devices or cyberware that interface with SmartGun
features (such as the CSI EyeKill Mk IV and TL
PureSight Glasses). Cyberware that interface with
the SmartGun attachment allow the user to "see"
through the weapon sights. SmartGun attachments
do not have any independent interface with the
GodNet. Usually.
TL PureSight Glasses: PureSight glasses were
created by Resistance members soon after the
invasion, and are designed to filter out hologram
images displayed in the Flesh, to display what
those holograms are concealing.These glasses
have no effect on other types of holograms (e.g. a
hologram clasp or image inducer). They can be set
to completely eliminate holograms, or just reduce
the visibility. For safety reasons, hard holograms
are never entirely filtered out. PureSight goggles or
glasses are usually mirrored or shaded and are a
74
favorite accessory of cyberwitches and other rebels.
PureSight Glasses may interface with a smartgun
attachment.
TSE Hardlight Drone Emitter: A single hardlight
drone emitter can manifest multiple types of
drones, but additional emitters can be purchased
in case one is lost, damaged, or destroyed. The
emitter is capable of flight at Speed Value 12. The
emitter can be controlled out to 5 kilometers, but if
it is outside the range of a particular drone variety,
it cannot manifest that drone. The drone emitter
has Toughness 8, but is Tiny (-6 to hit).
TSE Hardlight Hologram Emitter: When
physically connected to the GodNet through a
hardwire connection, this emitter is capable of
manifesting a single hardlight hologram or a being
who is "going holo" (see page 69) through or from
the GodNet.
WEAPONS
GWI and MAS are the primary manufacturers of
weapons in the Cyberpapacy.
GWI Devastator: The Devastator plasma cannon
is a larger, vehicle-mounted version of the GodFire
plasma weapon. Heavy weapons is the skill used to
fire.
GWI Light of Creation: This high powered laser
is equipped with sophisticated tracking sensors
and targeting systems and is primarily used in air
defense. The weapon is entirely powered by the
vehicle or emplacement it is mounted on, but its
use overwhelms its sensors after about one minute
of firing and requires a brief rest to recalculate the
target’s trajectory. This weapon uses heavy weapons
to fire.
GWI GodSmite: The GodSmite is the most recent
weapon manufactured by GWI, and currently
is mostly supplied to elite Cyberpapacy Church
Police Paragons. It is a large, high-powered laser
pistol capable of burst fire. It is equipped with
an integral laser sight (see General Gear in Torg
Eternity).
MAS God’s Wrath: The God’s Wrath is an
advanced grenade launcher that can rain fire from
the skies. If the gunner is equipped with a TSE
HUD (or similar device) and has access to the local

This can either grant a +2 bonus to hit or increase
the Blast Radius by one size. The God’s Wrath
can load multiple types of grenades (but MAS
grenades only) which are selectable with a switch.
This weapon uses missile weapons to fire.
MAS Herod IV: The Herod IV is a bulky
automatic pistol stabilized by internal gyroscopes,
and was one of the first weapons to use a SmartGun
attachment (which comes standard). If fired by
someone who doesn’t have a device to view the
SmartGun data, attacks take a –2 penalty. They are
still frequently used by the Resistance, as they lack
the circuitry to connect with the GodNet and can
be used by anyone without being hacked.
grenaDeS
Grenades manufactured in the Cyberpapacy are
equipped with small gas jets and fins that allow
the grenade to fly farther and more accurately than
lower Tech grenades.
MAS AP Grenades: These fragmentation
grenades break into sharp, hardened spikes when
they explode and are capable of shredding into
light armor.
MAS Tear Gas Grenade: These grenades release
an orange-colored gas, which burns exposed eyes
and irritates the lungs. If a person is in the area of

melee weaPonS
Many melee weapons produced by GWI are power
weapons and have a control button on the hilt
which activates a plasma energy field around the
weapon, increasing its effectiveness. Without the
field activated, it counts as a normal weapon of its
type but still causes contradictions.
GWI Ehud Dagger: This power dagger is
commonly used by cyberknights who may require
an easily concealed weapon on clandestine
missions.
GWI GodHammer: Although uncommon, this
double-headed power maul is occasionally used
by Inquisitors. Internal gyroscopes allow it to be
used easily despite the apparent imbalance caused
by the large head.
GWI Sword of David: Also called a power sword,
this longsword is a favored weapon of Inquisitors
and Hospitalers.
armor anD ShielDS
GWI HallowMesh: This armor consists of tightly-
woven kinetic fibers that tighten when hit by a fast-
moving object or burst of energy. It is light enough
to be concealed under clothing and is favored by
cyberknights who need to blend in.
GWI Sanctuary Shield: When activated, this
medium shield generates a plasma field that at
least partially counteracts armor piercing weapons.
TL Liberté: This thin layer of clothing is interlaced
with circuitry which creates a field that can ground

76
electrical shocks, such as those from the Tower of
Babel and Church Police riot sticks. The wearer
does not take additional Shock from Painful
electrical weapons.
VEHICLES
Vehicles in the Cyberpapacy have GodNet access
points, but since there is no direct hardline to the
GodNet, only basic information and communication
functions can be accomplished from a vehicle, even
with a cyberdeck.
All vehicles can be controlled through a neural
jack. Anyone with a HUD (cyberware or otherwise)
can use the internal Wi-Fi to access information
about the vehicle, but a neural jack is to actually
control the vehicle without hands.
Cyberpapacy vehicles can also simply be ordered
to go to a particular location, or move in a general
Well protected checkpoints are found all over the Cyberpapacy.
direction at a specific speed, through voice
commands. The autopilot is incapable of making
tests to do stunts or complete Steps in a Chase.
Most vehicles are keyed to their owners, but
the car’s computer system may be hacked with
a successful computers test. However, if the car
is suspected of carrying heretics, it can be taken
control of by jackpriests acting through the
GodNet. Locking them out requires a computers
contest. Simply destroying the transmitter and
receiver does not work, since vehicles require some
sort of connection to the GodNet to function.
lanD VehicleS
Land vehicles in the Cyberpapacy consist of high-
tech wheeled versions of less advanced automobiles
and bikes, as well as hover vehicles.
Hover vehicles are held aloft over the terrain
by about one meter by forcefields. A temporary

Anointed may ride one in an aircar, let alone own

agent attempts to enter an aircar, she is warned
that she is about to commit a sin, and if she does
not heed this warning and enters the car, it disables
itself, closes and locks the doors and contacts the
Church Police.
Hacking an aircar requires a Hard (DN 14)
computers test.
Generally aircars are programmed to remain
below the top of the highest building in a sprawl
(where a cross is always placed) or below the tops
of the highest trees in a region of the Wilds. This

to prevent the violation from being immediately
noticed by the Church.
Peugeot ChurchCar: These aircars are the most
common seen in the Cyberpapacy, especially in
and above the sprawls. Although some Anointed
own their own ChurchCars, most ChurchCars are
used as public transportation by the Blessed.
Peugeot Seraphim: The Seraphim is a hypersonic
VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) aircraft that
is exclusively used by the Church. The Seraphim
is primarily used to transport Church officials who
need to physically be in a particular place, but also
for inserting Church agents into foreign realms. The
Seraphim appears somewhat boxy, but forcefields
allow it to travel at high-rates of speed. When it is
hypersonic the aircraft appears as if it is on fire. It is
armed with twin-linked GWI Devastator cannons.
CYBERDECKS
Cyberdecks are the tools of a decker’s trade, and
they often reflect their owner’s personality, not
just in capability with regards to hardware and
software, but their physical construction and
form factor. Some cyberdecks are hardwired into
cyberlimbs, others look like books or even musical
instruments. They’re not fragile though, as it’s
expected a decker will have to make a quick escape
from wherever they’re jacked in if they happen to
be pulse traced.
Although each cyberdeck is a custom job, they
are generally built around a standard core. Each
cyberdeck has the following entries:
 Hardware Upgrade: a special ability the cyberdeck
provides the decker or ridealongs.
Hardcoded Programs: an allotment of standard
or upgraded programs the decker learns and come
with the cyberdeck automatically. They do not take
up any storage.
Additional Storage (X): a list of additional
programs the decker learns, and the number which
can be stored on the cyberdeck at the start of a run.
These programs may be swapped out prior to each
run.
Flesh App: When a cyberdeck is used to interface
with a computer with a Tech Axiom of 25 or less,
computers tests are Favored. However, a custom
unit often provides an additional benefit while
in the Flesh. This benefit cannot be used in the
GodNet.
USING CYBERDECKS
Possession of a cyberdeck is a heretical act, and as
such are only available on the black market. Even
then, the vast majority of cyberdecks in use are
highly customized rigs, specifically tuned by the
decker who uses them.
Cyberdecks require a neural jack to operate, and in
order to function at their full VR bandwidth, they
must also be connected physically by a nanotech
cable to a terminal connected to a Holy Exchange.
However, like TempTrodes, they can also connect
wirelessly to the GodNet or lower Tech Wi-Fi
networks, but only for basic information exchange.
More primitive computers without Wi-Fi can still
be accessed through the nanotech cable, which can
configure to any input or output port.
When within the GodNet, programs are accessed
at will, and a holographic interface appears in
front of the decker, which can be used by voice or
manually.
CYBERDECK MODELS
charity
The Charity is a deck designed for those who
particularly enjoy working with others. Given the
suspicious nature of the reality, there is speculation
amongst the Resistance that this was actually
created by someone not native to the Cyberpapacy,
possibly Core Earth, Pan-Pacifica, or some other
unknown cosm.
Because the resources required to multi-task
programs are significant, only standard programs
come hardcoded in the cyberdeck, but programs
may be upgraded by selecting the Program
Upgrades Perk on page 24.
Hardware Upgrade: At the beginning of a run, the
decker may choose one ridealong to be able to run
and gain the benefits of any programs stored on
the cyberdeck.
Hardcoded Programs: DataMiner, Ejection Seat,
FireWall
Additional Storage (3): BeatDown, DigitalSwerve,
IcePick, NewSkin
Flesh App: The cyberdeck can analyze the best
way to coordinate multiple teammembers on a
specific task. Combined Actions gain a +1 bonus.
cybergliDe
The unique feature of this model is that its form
factor is significantly smaller than the others. It is
considered Small (–2 to find tests when searched)
and can even be hardwired into a cyberlimb for
free. Additionally, the hardware in the Cyberglide
can spoof the use of a transfer node and reduce
the surveillance level. However, this cyberdeck’s
power is reduced and it has less storage, so its
capability in the GodNet reflects that of the Flesh:
it’s sneaky.
Hardware Upgrade: Once per act the decker can
make a computers test against the sector’s current
surveillance level. On a success, the surveillance
level of the current sector decreases by one (e.g.
Alert to Elevated, or Elevated to Baseline). On a
Good or Outstanding Success, the surveillance
level returns to Baseline.
Hardcoded Programs: DataMiner 2.0, NewSkin
2.0, SneakSneak 2.0
Additional Storage (2): BeatDown, DigitalSwerve,
IcePick
Flesh App: The cyberdeck can analyze the local
environment and prevent catastrophic mistakes
when trying to sneak past people or cameras. When
a 1 is rolled on a stealth test, it counts as 2 instead.
79
 firSt Seal
The most basic type of a cyberdeck, and the only
one that is easily available. It is simple enough
to use by anyone, even those who are Unskilled
in computers, but does not have the capabilities
of custom rigs. It comes with a standard suite of
programs, which cannot be modified or upgraded.
It only allows full VR access to the GodNet, without
any special abilities, but also without penalty.
The First Seal must be connected to the GodNet
via a hardline, but the decker can use TempTrodes
instead of a neural jack to operate it.
This is the cyberdeck listed in the Gear chapter
of Torg Eternity.
Hardware Upgrade: The First Seal
cyberdeck can be used by anyone
equipped with a neural jack.
Hardcoded Programs: Beat-
Down, DataMiner, Digital-
Swerve, IcePick, NewSkin
Additional Storage: None.
Flesh App: None.
marSeilleS hermeS
This deck, first created by deckers
in Magna Verita’s version of
Marseilles, France, specializes in
speed. Its hardware has the highest
clock rate, which allows it to run
its software exceptionally fast.
However, it sacrifices raw strength
and power to do so.
Hardware Upgrade: Once per act,
the decker can put her cyberdeck
into burst mode, and at the end of
their turn the decker gets a Flurry.
Hardcoded Programs: DataMiner 2.0,
DigitalSwerve 2.0, OverClock 2.0
Additional Storage (3): BeatDown,
EjectionSeat, IcePick, NewSkin
Flesh App: The Hardware Upgrade ability
can be activated when attempting a computers
test during a Dramatic Skill Resolution.

moDelo braSileiro
This variety of cyberdeck is new, only created by an
unknown and anonymous Brazilian decker in the
last few months. Since this cyberdeck model has just
shown up out of nowhere, deckers are just calling
it "the Brazillian Model." The Modelo Brasileiro
specializes in versatility. It’s not particularly
fast, strong, or tough, but it can do practically
anything—just not as well as a cyberdeck with
specialized functions.

SeconD Seal
Sometimes a decker’s first cyberdeck is
their only cyberdeck. This is a custom
upgrade of the commonly found First
Seal. Its simplicity means it is robust and
provides extra protection for the decker,
and any ridealongs, in the event of a hard
disconnect.
Hardware Upgrade: When the decker
or any ridealongs test for Defeat
after a hard disconnect they gain an
automatic Second Chance (as the
Destiny card).
CHLOE BEECH

Flesh App: Defeat tests ignore Wound Penalties.
SPell checker
Spell Checker is a popular deck used by
cyberwitches, due to its ability to actually store a
magic spell within its matrix.
Hardware Upgrade: Stores one spell the decker is
capable of learning. This spell can be swapped out
once per act.
Hardcoded Programs: DataMiner 2.0, PriestBurner
2.0, EjectionSeat 2.0
Additional Storage (2): BeatDown, DigitalSwerve,
IcePick, NewSkin, SneakSneak
Flesh App: The stored spell can be cast in the
Flesh as well.
WRATH
Wrath is the superlative combat cyberdeck and is
as nasty as it looks. It is significantly larger than
other models, but is capable of adding power to its
attacks in the GodNet.
Hardware Upgrade: When this cyberdeck is
chosen, the decker may upgrade two hardcoded
programs.
Hardcoded Programs: AngelBlaster, BeatDown,
PriestBurner
Additional Storage (3): DataMiner, FireWall,
IcePick, NewSkin
Flesh App: Ignore 2 points of Range penalties
with a SmartGun attachment.
CYBERDECK PROGRAMS
Each program has an effect or action that it can
take while in the GodNet. These effects and actions
can only be run or benefit the decker running
the program, unless otherwise specified. Each
program entry also includes an upgraded effect
that enhances or replaces the standard effect.
angelblaSter
AngelBlaster is designed to do only one thing—
destroy GodNet entities. It manifests as a huge
chaingun, and the decker can exchange it for
whatever he is carrying as a simple action, and
vice versa. The AngelBlaster uses heavy weapons
to shoot, but the decker is considered skilled even
if he has no adds. It has a range of 50 meters,
fires in a Heavy Burst at up to 10 targets. Targets
hit take 16 damage, but humans and inanimate
objects are immune. AngelBlaster cannot be used
by ridealongs, and it can only be run while in the
GodNet.
AngelBlaster 2.0: Targets instead take 16 AP 4
damage.
beatDown
The decker’s virtual weapons are enhanced, and
while in the GodNet gain +1 damage. The benefits
of BeatDown or BeatDown 2.0 do not stack with
other weapon programs like AngelBlaster or
PriestBurner.
BeatDown 2.0: Additionally, the decker may
reroll 1s on any bonus dice.
Dataminer
DataMiner was developed to quickly extract
information from computers, downloading
information in seconds instead of minutes and
making the data available for retrieval later.
The decker’s tests during a Dramatic Skill
Resolution involving extracting information from
a computer are Favored, and all Drama cards are
considered to have Step A showing on the card.
DataMiner 2.0: If the Dramatic Steps line on the
current Drama card is not a dilemma and does
not include the current step, it counts as if it only
includes the current step.
DigitalSwerVe
This program defends the decker (and her
cyberdeck) against incoming attacks. While in the
GodNet, an Active Defense has a minimum +2
bonus instead of +1.
DigitalSwerve 2.0: If the decker does not currently
have an Active Defense bonus in effect, the decker
can choose to make an Active Defense after the
81
 result of the attack is known. This sacrifices the
decker’s next action, and the Active Defense bonus
lasts till the end of the decker’s next turn.
ejectionSeat
Stories are whispered about Angel Bait...those
deckers who were unfortunate enough to have
been killed or captured in the GodNet and had their
souls trapped in Purgatory...or worse. EjectionSeat
attempts to mitigate this danger. While in the
GodNet, the decker’s tests for Defeat are Up.
EjectionSeat 2.0: Additionally, the decker, as an
action, can choose to initiate a hard disconnect.
firewall
This program hardens the decker’s avatar and
protects her against physical attacks. While in the
GodNet the decker gains an additional +1 bonus
to Toughness, which stacks with all other bonuses.
FireWall 2.0: The decker gains a +2 bonus to
Toughness.
icePick
This program counts as a set of lock picks,
specifically targeting secure nodes, and is
manifested as a large icicle stabbing into the lock.
The decker’s lockpicking tests are Favored and may
be used unskilled.
IcePick 2.0: The decker’s first failed attempt to hack
a secure node in a construct does not cause a blip.
A Mishap causes a blip but does not automatically
raise surveillance level to High Alert.
newSkin
NewSkin allows the decker to appear as someone
else while in the GodNet. There are hundreds of
options for the avatar’s appearance and voice but
it’s locked when jacking in. Duplicating a specific
person is not possible.
NewSkin 2.0: The decker can create and store
multiple avatars and the decker may swap between
avatars by taking an action. Additionally, weapons
and armor can be "reskinned" and appear like other
wepaons but still function normally (e.g. making a
Godmeeter look like a spear).
82
oVerclock
The decker sets up a list of commands that can
temporarily take control of her avatar. Once per
act, the decker can ignore 2 points of Multi-Action
penalties for the rest of the scene.
OverClock 2.0: The decker ignores 4 points of
Multi-Action penalties instead.
PrieStburner
PriestBurner can only be used in the GodNet,
and only affects the avatars of humans or other
living creatures. It has no effect on inaminate
objects, GodNet entities, or hardlight holograms.
This program manifests as a comically large
flame thrower that can materialize in the decker’s
hands as a simple action, replacing anything he is
currently holding. He may switch back to his other
items as a simple action.
The PriestBurner has unlimited ammo but may
only fire a single Medium Blast Radius shot per
turn, and has a range of 30 meters. It does 16 fire
damage. The hero is considered skilled in heavy
weapons while firing the weapon even if he has no
adds.
PriestBurner cannot be used by ridealongs.
PriestBurner 2.0: The weapon also attacks the
target’s lowest armor.
SneakSneak
SneakSneak allows the decker to move silently
and nigh invisibly, avoiding detection from the
omnipresent Church surveillance. This program
also degrades attempts to detect spoofed Piety
Scores.
While in a VR network, the hacker’s stealth tests
are Favored, and the first blip created in a scene is
ignored unless it was a Mishap. Attempts to detect
a nodder’s spoofed Piety (both in the Flesh and the
GodNet) are contests, and decker’s test is Favored.
SneakSneak 2.0: The hacker gains a +4 bonus to
stealth tests instead of Favored. Tests to detect a
decker’s spoofed Piety Score, are Disfavored.
