Do you want an npc that lives in your body? Probably not Anyways: caligaes.itch.io/bocasentupiel #ttrpg
In My Skin?

Due to a strange illness, a witch's curse, or the wound left by a beast; a mouth with its own personality, fears, and desires has appeared on your skin. And it just won't leave.

Is there a cure?

1.-No.
2.-Have you tried to rip it apart?
3.-Maybe, but the ritual requires the flesh of a great beast.
4.-Maybe, but you'll never forget the pain.
5.-Yes, find the root of it and destroy it.
6.-Yes, drown it.

The Mouth is a non player character that lives inside the skin of your characters, and, as such, it has its own tastes, fears, goals and desires.
As crazy as they may seem.

KNIFE. LETAL. STEALTH. You can become KNIFE at caligaes.itch.io/xenoinvasion #ttrpg
Meet KnifeKNIFE

Apex predators on their home planets. They use organic projectiles that they can generate and launch at high speeds to take down their prey.

MOTHER has modified these creatures to grant them the ability to shape light, making their bodies, their victims, or their hunting grounds transparent.
KNIVES that manage to mutate develop even greater hunting abilities. They tear their victims apart with showers of spines, move across the battlefield in the blink of an eye to disembowel the most vulnerable, or evolve their transparency into perfect invisibility.KNIVES are ideal for players who want to move quickly across the battlefield, ambush their victims from impossible angles with impressive stealth, and tear humanity apart from any distance.

#lodelrol Encarna a HUESO en caligaes.itch.io/xenoinvasion
Conoce a HUESO alienígenas necroparasíticos de pequeño tamaño, altamente inteligentes y ágiles.

Madre ha modificado a estas criaturas para otorgarles un control macabro sobre cadáveres orgánicos, utilizando sus afiladas colas como conductos nerviosos que les permiten manipular estos cascarones de carne.
Las mutaciones de los hueso les permiten convertirse en maestros del control de la información, robando secretos de los cerebros inertes de sus víctimas, o en manipuladores de cuerpos que llevan cada músculo y cada articulación del cadáver a su máximo potencial.Los xenos del tipo hueso son ideales para jugadores que deseen jugar con la mente de sus víctimas, resolver los misterios de los experimentos que ocurren en Tierra y utilizar habilidades y tecnología robadas para despedazar a cada pobre víctima que se cruce en su camino.

Your XENO's are Evolving.
BONE

A:1 M:0 P:1 B:2 SP:3

CHARACTERISTICS:
Your size is small.
You have a tail as sharp as a dagger.
You can speak, read, and write all languages.

X ABILITY: AFTER-LIFE CONTROL

You can control small, medium, or large corpses by replacing their tongue with your own body. Your control is flawless, perfectly mimicking life itself. However, you do not gain access to the corpse’s memories, not even its name.

Macabre Puppet:
You can take advantage of the physical attributes, skills, and technology the corpse had in life, as long as it makes narrative sense. While controlling a corpse, you can use BRAIN for MUSCLE or AGILITY TESTS, as long as the body allows it.

Your Macabre Puppet is destroyed if it fails a DEFENSE TEST, regardless of whether you lose SURVIVAL POINTS or not.

A: 1 M: 0 P: 1 C: 2
PS: 3

CARACTERÍSTICAS:

Tu tamaño es pequeño.
Tienes una cola tan filosa como una daga.
Puedes hablar, leer y escribir todos los idiomas.

HABILIDAD X:

Control Post-Vida

Controla cadáveres pequeños, medianos o grandes reemplazando su lengua con tu cuerpo. Tu control es perfecto, imitando la vida misma, aunque no cuentas con acceso a los recuerdos del cadáver, ni siquiera a su nombre.

Marioneta Macabra: Puedes aprovechar los atributos físicos, las habilidades y tecnología que el cadáver tenía en vida, siempre que tenga sentido narrativo: Al controlar un cadáver puedes utilizar CEREBRO para PRUEBAS de MÚSCULO o AGILIDAD, siempre que el cuerpo lo permita.

Tu Marioneta Macabra es destruida al fallar una prueba de DEFENSA, independientemente de si pierdes PUNTOS DE SUPERVIVENCIA o no.

I'll be translating my aliens from XENO to the Mothership system! This is the first entry: BONE, the corpse-snatching alien. On the blog, you can also find a situation built using TOMBS. www.axostories.com/blogs/game-c... Hope you like it! #TTRPG
BONE: The Corpse-Snatching Alien (for Mothership TTRPG)

BONE [C:60 KNIFE TAIL 3d10 DMG I:65 INTELLECT: 80 AP:25 W3(35)]

BONE is a cat-sized, biologically engineered alien with the appearance of an arthropod. Highly intelligent, capable of understanding any language, whether biological or artificial. Six pairs of scythe-shaped legs extend along their thorax and abdomen. Their skull is elongated upward and backward, devoid of any fleshy tissue. The openings that resemble their eyes and mouth are covered by a dark, segmented membrane, and their tail is composed of thousands of filaments that, when joined together, form a devastatingly sharp edge.

Masters of espionage and manipulation, having the ability to control corpses and perfectly mimic the voice and mannerism that the host had in life. They use their expertise and body-snatching abilities to spread terror and confusion among their victims.BONE: Horrors and skills

Macabre Puppet: BONE can control corpses by replacing its tongue with their own body. Their control is perfect, mimicking life itself, but they only know basic things about their host such as their name, age, and immediate family.

Osseous Explosion. Makes a Macabre Puppet explode. Anyone Adjacent: Body Save or 4d10 DMG

Peaceful Death: When possible, BONE will kill their victim without leaving any marks on the body.

Ghoul: When BONE voluntarily leaves a Macabre Puppet, the remains become a walking corpse. BONE can command these ghouls, but they can only follow basic commands.

BONES serve as the information-gathering and covert intervention specialists in MOTHER’s army. Left unchecked, a single BONE can lead to the collapse of an entire nation. 

They usually work alone or in small groups, fewer of them makes it easier to take control of an unsuspecting settlement or ship.
