The Regulator

Story Coming Soon.. When a player does something of worth and will thus be recorded here.


The Regulators are a secondary class that broke off from the Gunslingers once The Order dissolved. They adopted the name of the rifle that was used by the Gunslingers 'Regulator'. The main attribute of every Regulator is a companion of sorts. Seeing as they are no longer part of the great community of Gunslingers, they each rely on a companion to aid them in their struggles. This companion is as varied as the Regulator themselves and often reflects their character. From a stoic dog to a wild beast that has been tamed to obey the commands of its owner and even some strange mystical creature. Other than being skilled with a rifle, the Regulator's saving grace are their collection of random abilities. From being trained in all things combat to relying heavily on non-combat skills such as their intelligence or trade skills. Each individual Regulator is a new Class in and of itself when you compare them to any other Regulator. In the end the only person they trust to get a job done are themselves.. and their trusty companion of course. Whom they'd sacrifice any member of a party to save.

Starting Point

The Starting Point, also known as The Level 1 Skill. Pick a path that best suits you. This does not affect what other skills you may choose down the road.

Level One Skills

Every Regulator gets a companion. But some rely more heavily on the companion and the skills they'll bring to every adventure. So much so, that if the choice comes down to saving the life of a fellow party member or their pet, the Regulator will normally choose their pet. By choosing this starting point, The Companion becomes just that, it isn't a pet or a tool like other Regulator's may treat theirs, but the companion becomes an extension of your character - more than a weapon or a piece of armor.  

_//Companion:Faithful - The Regulator's Companion gets a bonus Owner's Levelx20 HP added to their total HP. 
As compared to the normal Level x 10 = HP for any other Companion.


Since they left the Order of Gunslingers, the Regulator is on a constant search of knowledge. It is believed that they were once trying to start their own Order, but long since abandoned any structured society. Now the Regulator searches to learn more simply for their own desires. They are able to learn from mistakes and correct them within seconds. They have also gained the ability to adapt to any new situation rather quickly.

_//Knowledge: Extra Credit - The Regulator will be able to change one of their Knowhow Pools to another field before quest begins. And a +1 their temporarily abandoned Knowhow Pool.

For Example: The Regulator has a +3 to Politician Rolls. But they don't think they'll need them for this Quest. So they wish to change that to +3 to Wired Rolls.  They'll still have a +1 in Politician. 

While to many the Regulator may look like they put their talents with a firearm in the backseat when compared to their ability with their pets or knowledge. There are others who choose neither of those two and rely heavily on their skills with firearms. Mainly - The Rifle. Instead of honing skills in other departments, this Regulator chose to focus on nothing but that which would keep them alive the most. Their ability to shoot people.

_//Regulate: This Is My Rifle - The Regulator will receive no Short Range Penalty (Effects Duels). When a fight is about to begin. The Regulator will distance themselves from the main combat area. Meaning they will be void from the first round of enemy attacks if they are melee attacks. Ranged Weapons can still hit.

Level Four Skills

Once you've reached Level 4, you can choose another skill.

_//Companion::Good Boy - The Regulator has spent more time with their pet than any other living being and thus are able to understand one another and communicate better than most people would be able to by speaking. Because of this, the ability to train their companion has great increased. Allowing the Regulator to now teach their companion a new trick every level from this point on. As well as 2 for the previous 2 levels missed. So at level 4, they should have 4 skills.




_//Regulate: Covering Fire - The Regulator is able to fire not at any enemy, but around all enemies to make them all think they are about to get hit. So when the entire party is done attacking. The Regulator who had waited until the end to fire goes. And when he fires the enemies are either forced to take cover or chose to defend themselves from the barrage of bullets. Thus allowing the player's party to have gotten ready to attack again. Thus halting an enemy's attack. You can only use this once in every battle. But Twice Per Quest. This doesn't need to be rolled for to work. But should be anyway for the BONUSES!. If the player rolls two Natural 20's when using this skill. The Enemies are forced to take two rounds to recover before they attack. And if all three rolls are Natural 20's. Then the enemies will either run away or give up. At GM's Discretion.

Level Eight Skills

Once you've reached Level 8, you can choose another skill.







_//Knowledge: Combat Evolved - If a Regulator knows that he isn't going to need any of his Knowledge in the coming Quest. He is able to wipe his mind clear of all things but the combat ahead. He is able to adopt the powers of the Gunslinger that has rested within them for many years and it all comes flooding out. A Regulator must have 20 Knowhow regardless. So if they only have 20 to 30 Knowhow - the Regulator will receive a +10 Control Bonus for the remainder the Quest at hand and acquire the Roll Bonuses and DMG Bonuses from having that Control. If the Regulator has 31 Knowhow or above - they will receive a +20 Control Bonus for the Quest at hand and acquire the Roll Bonuses and DMG Bonuses from having that control.


_//Regulate: This Is My Gun - Attempt to win a battle.. before it even begins. The first roll is to find a weakpoint on your enemy. The second roll is to not be detected. And the third roll is the shot itself. This must be done with your strongest rifle. This attack mortally wounds the enemy. Meaning, the enemy won't be able to fight back. 
Must be used at GM's discretion however. 


So simply, 


Step 1: Roll a Control/Knowhow/Fate/Lvl roll to find the enemy's weakpoint. 
Step 2: Roll an attack to expose the weak spot.
Step 3: Roll the final blow attack.  

If all three are successful, then either death or a massive amount of damage is done to an enemy. GM Discretion.
