Chrysalis

Concept

You are the pinnacle of human technological development. Superior soldiers, your bodies enhanced by nectar infusions, who have gained the ability to pilot mankind's ultimate combat machines - the Jaegers, or, as some took to calling them, the Papillons, semi-organic, living combat units created to combat the most dangerous threat that mankind has faced so far - the Leviathan.

The Leviathan have been attacking mankind seemingly without provocation for the last three decades, and the onslaught of the bizarre, inorganic living space organisms seems to be only growing stronger as time goes on. Conventional units of the Earth Sphere Defence Force are utterly outmatched - you and other soldiers like you are mankind's last hope.

You have been deployed to a frontier world which came under attack by the Leviathan. There are thirty million civilians alive within the system.

Try to keep it that way.

Character Creation

There are 4 stats

• Physical
• Mental
• Social/Command
• Integrity

You have 20 dice to assign to them. Social/Command also determines how effective the conventional forces under your command will be in actual battle, while Physical and Mental determine your Papillion's and personal combat prowess. Integrity determines your own psychological stability and your innate resistance to nectar's less-than-welcome side-effects.
