He doesn't remember.  Though he does get this feeling of hatred and betrayal when he thinks far enough back.  Not sure where that comes from, but whatever.  He just knows he killed people.Which is cool, because he didn't really like people to begin with.  Humans and elves were too ugly, Orks were too tall, and Trolls...well, they're alright.  At least they can drink.  Always fun killing them, though.  Point is, Diggs always liked machines more than people.  They were loyal.  Like having a pet that was smart enough to have a conversation. It was about 12 years ago...or it could have been last week, his memory isn't all that great...sometime in the recent past, Diggs was working for his boss, whoever that was, killing someone who needed killing, whoever that was.  Somehow, probably because of an ugly elf, he got himself blown halfway to hell.  Since he'd been one of those "get caught and we'll forget about you" folks, Diggs wasn't able to get prosthetics to fix his legs, right arm and right eye.  So he did what any self respecting Drone Master would do.  He hacked a drone belonging to his old boss and had it steal a good bit of cybernetic tech.  Then he spent a good amount of time (so he guesses it couldn't have been a week ago, then) fixing himself, using the drones as extra hands.  Took forever.  The drone he hacked didn't have any hands.  Stupid companies.  When he was done, he was almost a drone himself.  Fully cybernetic arm, legs and eye, and he even put mounts for future drones on his hand and eye socket.  Just in case.  Well, he's decided he's not done.  He's got this other eye, see, that doesn't do anything special, it just sits there and sees things.  And these ears that are so inefficient.  His skeleton everywhere but his cybernetic parts breaks just too damn easily, and while he's got this cool implant in his head that lets him control machines with his mind, there's just so much more he could be doing.  The only thing he needs is money.  Screw being alive.  Diggs wants to be a machine. Just like Fluffy.  Oh, and he also has plans to make Fluffy look like an actual Doberman.  He thinks that'd be really cool, to have a robot dog following him around.  He'd make him bark and sit and attack people's jugulars.  Heh heh.  It'll be glorious.So here is Diggs, followed by Fluffy.  Let me know what you think, and what I did wrong.Name: DiggsRace: DwarfBackground: MilitaryClass: Tech (Drone Master)HP: 47 (32 +15 from Cybernetics)AC: 12Str:  13Dex:  10Con:  12 (+2 = 14)Int:  14Wis:  11 (+2 = 13)Cha:  15 (-1 = 14)DWARF SPECIAL TRAITSAbility Score Modifier: Constitution +2, Wisdom +2, Charisma -1Medium Sized and Speed: base 20 feet a round.

Drone Rigger (Core Ability): You are a specialized drone rigger. Any drones that you control with either AR or with full emersion, perform their actions on your initiative and you add your proficiency bonus to all controlled drones’ Armor Class, attack bonus to hit and any damage rolls as well as well as to its saving throws, ability and skill checks. You can order them move as a no action on your part. As a bonus action you can order one drone to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge or Help action. As an action you can direct all of the drones to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge or Help action. As an action you can order one drone to take all of its actions. These actions are distracting though and you are at Disadvantage for all of your personal attacks and checks (not saving throws). If you use the full emersion ability with your VRC to control one drone you gain a +2 insight bonus to your attack bonus as well as the saving throws and ability checks with the drone. At 11th level if you have multi-attacks in a round (via Double or Triple Attack feats) all drones under your control can also make multiple attacks. If you are incapacitated or reduced to 0 hit points or if a drone is outside its communications range its action must be on ‘autopilot’ or it does not act at all. If this class is chosen at character creation, the Drone Rigger gains either a Combat, Recon or Stealth Drone for free. The Combat Drone can have two light firearms or one medium installed while the Recon and Stealth have one light firearm installed for free (after character creation must purchase drones and weapons separately).Drone Hacking: Through you VRC you may attempt to hack an enemy drone or syder system. As an action make an Intelligence (Computer Use) skill vs. the drones Firewall. If you succeed you impose the charmed condition onto an autopilot systems. However if another operator is controlling the drone (or you have Best Friends talent) it gains an Intelligence save DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier. If the drone fails you knock the operator out of the system (see Dumpshock, if it is under direct control) and the drone gains the charmed condition. You can order this drone or system as if you owned it but you must maintain concentration each round with at least a bonus action. Any round you stop concentrating on the drone it loses the charmed conditions with you. Cybernetics: With it you gain up to 6 Stain points of Cyberware.

A complex neural pathway implant that allows the subject to control vehicles, drones and internal systems with its mental commands. This is done via a comlink and either AR interaction or with a datajack and comlink with a wireless interface modifier. The vehicle or system must have a Rigger upgrade (all drones automatically include this). The ‘rigger’ can control up to its Intelligence modifier in systems at a time and gains an additional action on each of its turns. This action can only be used with a system under its control and it must be used only to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Hide, Recover from Reeling or Use an Object action.

This Cost 600¥ each but only 1 Strain total, but can hold up to 3 Strain worth of cybernetic-visual enhancements without costing the subject any additional Strain. Modifiers over 3 Strain count towards the subject’s total Strain. Note that all of the following enhancers can be added to any subject without cybernetic ears (as simple cybernetic upgrades) but the subject counts all Strain in full. All metahumans who have cybernetic eye replacements lose any natural Low-Light or Darkvision, unless they take the cybernetic version.* Ocular Drone Mount (level 1): this eye mount requires that the subject have at least one cybernetic eye replacements. It allows the subject to store an ocular drone within the eye socket. Others have disadvantage at detecting the drone when mounted, but the subject is blind in one eye when the drone is in use (Disadvantage on ranged attack rolls and perception checks past 10ft).

Cybernetic Legs: Grants +10 to max healthCyber-Leg Enhancements (7 levels): these implants require both legs are cybernetic replacements.
