Those gifted with fertile genitalia bred with other foul, unlikely scientific mistakes and oddities to form a new line of independently minded creatures. The name ‘abomination’ seemed to stick, however, instead of their product ID, and in time, even their creators called them by the name they are now known by. Civilians, politicians and activists had less flattering names for these life forms, especially once these fleshy brutes began to see deployment against enemy troops, street mobs, rioters, mutants and other entities. Present day scribes and researchers have uncovered only a few pre-collapse names for these ghastly miscreations, such as blobs, rubber devils, fleshies, globulurs, gobbies, dough monsters, and flesh puddings. [ATTACH=full]407956[/ATTACH] Abomination 2 Hand drawn ink art from page 26 of The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules book The DNA of an abomination is a blend of custom manipulation, happy accidents, and that of animals and humans, the results often pitiful, and always sickening to behold. They have been described as bags of flesh and organs, dotted with orifices and appendages, sensory parts, heads, limbs, and discolored patches of hair, scale, or horn, the whole mess further dotted with open sores that are barely distinguishable from nostrils, mouths or mating orifices. While hideous, hated and typically shunned, some exhibit traits which make them indispensable members of raiding parties, ship’s crews, merc squads and ruin exploration teams. Bristling with often gruesome yet deadly appendages, armored plating, and a blend of offensive and defensive mutations, they can be fearsome and valued comrades. Of course, stemming from blended DNA and often growing up as ill treated filth, they tend to have bizarre personalities, odd illnesses and one or more flaws. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/0994923791" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/dp/0994923791</a> or <a href="https://www.outlandarts.com/expansionrules.htm" target="_blank">The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules</a> [ATTACH=full]407959[/ATTACH]Abomination 3Ink art from page 28 of The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules bookEach Abomination will have 1d2 flaw mutations, 1d3 minor mutations, and 1d4+2 prime mutations from the mutation determination lists starting on page 228, which includes mutations from this book and the hub rules.

Like living humans, however, they are very mortal. Typically, when their head is destroyed, they are erased and lost forever. Also like humans, who their creators wished to emulate as much as possible, unique androids can learn as they endure the ordeals of the twisted new world, improving their skills, enhancing their mechanical body, and advancing as other intelligent beings do.

Androids, like cyborgs and robots, are however highly vulnerable to electromagnetic pulse attacks or EMP, some electricity shooting mutations and relics, as well as being hacked and taken over by hostile artificial intelligences and digital beings. Often, a digital being is housed in the body of an android, and both the digital being and an android body must be rolled using two separate character sheets to construct one character. Android characters do not feel pain, are immune to mental attacks that afflict a living brain, and if decapitated, and utterly lose their body, they are still considered alive and their head can be collected and either carried about like a talkative computer and pet, or eventually put onto the body of a different android or robot — although this is a tricky procedure handled best by very talented NPC robotics technicians. When reduced below zero endurance, or its willpower or intelligence trait are drained below zero, the android becomes dormant until repaired — or self-healed in some cases — and can survive in low battery mode for 1d100+6 years before its CPU suffers some irreversible corruption and is deleted. If the head of an android is incinerated, crushed, or shot apart, then it is dead.

These humanoid robots usually had plastic bones — although many featured fully biodegradable sheathing, bones and parts which have long since decayed into dust.     This unique android, however, is built different from other models. It is either a customized variant, from a limited edition, or a prototype of some rare, purpose-built and perhaps one of a kind design. Roll on the following table to determine what its original intended job was, with each model gaining trait bonuses or penalties. See the description text to follow for each unit’s intended, pre-play ‘job’ for potential starting skills and other features.
