Hey guys, new to this whole mailing list thing...
GURPS Bioshock. A quick Google search leaves me no actual results. I was
quite surprised thinking that GURPS would already has converted said thing but
it has not. I am running an infinite worlds campaign at the moment and just to
take a break for high powered characters, so PCs are playing as what appears to
be a completely separate campaign (When it actually isn't *evil grin*) as
investigators to find the missing little girls. A trail of clues lead to
well...u'know... Rapture. Most of the players have played the game. So I had
it take place after Bioshock 1. (Havent played 2 but I'm fine with spoilers).
These 100 point characters basically see what Jack sees in Bioshock 1's start.
(Youtube video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J47ENHSomc8) However the
twist is in the video is at the end of the Andrew Ryan speech the Pod suddenly
wildly goes off course.
I was curious what the GURPS community thinks bout this. Bioshock is
excellent conversation. Plasmids sound pretty easy to convert but I just need
help with them and splicers. The way I see it is splicer templates would
probaly have slightly lower IQ, but high perception. Because you gotta be able
to be good at spotting to survive but don't have to be the brightest.Dex. I'm
unsure about the number on this. HT unsure too. Strength I assume you gotta be
slightly strong to survive such a city. Pretty sure they would have the skill
Splicing, Urban Surival. They would also have disadvantage probaly something
along the lines of paranoia and addiction to ADAM. 50 points sound about right
for a base template?
Next Plasmids. Most would be easy. Its just figuring out the right numbers.
Plasmids such as Incarcerate! would be easy. Slight area effect with some after
burn? I would think budget would be to keep it to 25-50 points because PCs
will get their hands on it.I would like to stat out sonic boom, enrage, ice,
electrobolt. These ones seem to be a bit more trickier. Sonic Boom could be
done by say making cone and no wounding. Its just getting the numbers right
which is why I need help.
Hoping for some help. Thanks guys. Also its late at night for me so forgive and
grammar mistakes I make.
