CLASSES OF TECHA

Natives of Techa often seek adventure out within the walls or without. However, the simple middle
class workers fall under the radar in the grand scope of the new Earth. The only classes listed are those
aspiring for greatness, exhibiting greatness, or has greatness thrust upon them. NOTE: These classes are
modified variations from D20 Modern, combining the basic and advanced classes in order to make them
competitive to the magically imbued opponents and allies of Echa. The Player Characters choosing a
path of non-magic must have access to technology on a regular basis. Without upgrading their
technology, Echan characters won’t fair much better than low-level D&D characters.
As stated above, until a human is infused with magic, either by embracing it as a wizard or
sorcerer, or wearing it as armor, or slaying with it using a sword, a human has a choice whether or not to let
the enchanted into his spirit. If he does that, he looses a portion of his own sprit, in favor of this infusion.
To offset the major hit bonuses of high-level characters, PCs are given a defense bonus dependant
on their level that is stacked onto existing bonuses. This is a bonus to AC that is not offered in D&D. These
bonuses remain as long as the PC does not multi-class in magic, hold magic, use magic, wield magic, or
protect himself with magic. If this happens, the PC will loose this bonus forever (unless the GM is feeling
generous). If the PC is forced magic on his person or if the GM wants to be kind, the PC can try to avoid
magic at all costs and gain 1 point of his original Class bonus every day until filled again.
Special Note: Magical Healing and Resurrections fall under the GM’s final decision. Making
magical heaving unavailable to Techan characters reduces their survivability. If the group is entirely
Techan, they should be nearby Bastions, allowing them to purchase Healing syringes. However, if the
group is a mix, the GM may allow Techan characters to keep their inherent defense bonus if a healing spell
is cast on them. It could be explained that the magic restores cells and doesn’t stay with the character as
possessing magic does. Anything that IMPROVES a Character can be defined as an INFUSION and not
magic that RESTORES. Descriptions that follow are short as many Bastions have different definitions to their
classes.
TECH POINTS (TP) -- GaPs & WePs
Gadget Points and Weapons Points are credits Techa characters gain resembling influence and
favors in their Bastion of origin allowing them to possess and acquire technology as their characters begin
and grow through life. Gadget Points pay for items that can assist a PC in unique tasks (like heat sensing
goggles and a portable shelter). Weapons points pay for all forms of devices that cause and protect from
damage. Every level, the character receives 1d4 + 3 + Reputation Bonus more points she can then
allocate to either GaPs or WePs. Once placed in their spot, they can never be shifted or traded. These
numbers are fixed. The GM may elect to award a point as a reward where money would not be
appropriate (the PC befriends an engineer who offers the Character 6 Gadget points as a thank you. He
can’t give money but that’s a mighty nice favor to add). GaPs and WePs not spent during leveling or
character generation compound so they can be saved for later. Tech points earned later may be spent at
any Bastion the PC encounters but starting characters can only spend their initial points at their city of
origin.
BASTIONS AND TECH LEVELS
Techan natives all originate from Bastions. However, no two cities are alike and bear so little from
each other that determining this origin is vital. A Player must indicate which Bastion the character is from.
Each Bastion carries a unique idea along, reflecting in their technology and attitudes. Technology
translates into Tech Levels. The higher the level, the more advanced the technology.
However, before the PC dives into Porto to snag some pulse rifles and ant-grav packs, it time to
point that the higher the TL, the higher the cost and Tech Points (TP) required to possess it. This difficulty
reflects in the cost of the item; it is not necessary to add a multiplier for High tech items. However, some
items are more rare than others, no matter where they originate are. This is explained with the items and
weapons later.

 ARMOR
Body armor comes in a variety of shapes
and sizes, providing varying degrees of coverage
and varying heaviness of materials.
Three feats cover proficiency in the use
of armor: Armor Proficiency (light), Armor
Proficiency (medium), and Armor Proficiency
(heavy).
Armor Table: Armor is described by a
number of statistics, as shown on the table
below.
Type: Armor comes in four types:
impromptu, concealable, tactical, and
advanced.
Impromptu armor includes items that
provide protection even though they weren’t
designed for that purpose, such as leather biker’s
jackets and football pads.
Concealable armor is modern body
armor designed to fit underneath regular
clothing. It can be worn for extended periods of
time without fatiguing the wearer.
Tactical armor is modern body armor
that fits over clothing and can’t be easily
concealed. Its weight and bulk make it
impractical to wear all the time, and it is
generally only donned when a specific
dangerous confrontation is likely. Because it is
worn over clothing in tactical situations, tactical
armor often has pockets, clips, and velcro
attachment points for carrying weapons,
grenades, ammunition, flashlights, first aid kits,
and other items.
Advanced armor progresses past the
previous three types with additional features,
some obvious, some beyond the realm of
imagination.
AC Bonus: The protective value of the
armor. This bonus adds to the wearer’s Defense.
Nonproficient Bonus: The maximum
amount of the armor’s equipment bonus that
can be applied to the wearer’s Defense if the
wearer is using armor with which he or she isn’t
proficient (doesn’t have the appropriate feat).
Maximum Dex Bonus: This number is the
maximum Dexterity bonus to Defense that this
type of armor allows. Heavier armor limits
mobility, reducing a character’s ability to avoid
attacks.
Even if a character’s Dexterity bonus
drops to +0 because of armor, the character are
not considered to have lost his or her Dexterity Move Silently, and Tumble.

CIVILIAN AIRCRAFT
All aircraft, from one-seaters to

into the Balloons themselves. If its power
goes out, it can luckily drift smoothly to the
ground.
Beluga Carrier: One of only two
Porto craft which venture far from their
homelands, the Belugas travel usually to their
distant allies in York and Angel, transporting
supplies and personnel. Intentionally
detuned, the craft acts as a TL2 craft when in
the open. It is crewed only by Porto staff and
carries no armaments.
Sunlab: A quiet craft with no
weapons, the Sunlabs, invented in Selkirk,
utilize magnetic to hover quietly above the
ground. Slow but not cumbersome, the
vessel can rise to miles above the ground if

CIVILIAN TRUCKS
Trucks include pickups, sport

generally have the same features as
civilian cars.
Like cars, trucks generally
provide three-quarters cover to their

truck, however, provides only one-half

how many of these Porto operates but the guess
stands at less than eight. The craft utilize
antigravity propulsion powered from Solar cells.
This prevents the craft from needing to carry
large power cells with it. Even still, Galleons seem
to be immune to all EDF thrown at it (Acting as a
