[D20 Future/Apocalypse]Conversion of the Engel RPG

[A2Z]

With D20 Apocalypse almost here. Or already here, I started thinking about the Engel RPG again. I'm seriously thinking of running a game with D20 Modern set in the Engel world. Instead of having the characters as the Engel though I want to set them in the Junklords domains. This would give them access to more modern technology and sensabilities. It would also set the Engel as antagonists however. So with that, here's my write ups of the 5 Engels orders as D20 Modern adversaries.

Let me know what you think. I'm open to different interpretations.
