No, he is Human with the Mutant sub-type. There are three sub-types presented to player characters: Clone, Copy, and Mutant, all of which are presented in Chapter 10: JENOVA and the Cetra.

Half-Aliens are those born from the Jenova Project. Their dna comprises of human and Jenova cells. The only known examples of these creatures are Sephiroth, Angeal Hewley, and Genesis Rhapsodos.

When it says 'Monster manual II' would that then be the DnD 3.5 monster manual II?

Ongoing project, dear Keita. Marc sometimes puts referrences into things that he hasn't had time to make an independant source on, just how it goes.

I take that as a no... but how does 'Mutant' work then?

@Hemnon: the monster manual the book references is a currently-in-development project, which is titled: Monster Manual - Core Rulebook II. I will upload what i've done with it so far a bit later on today, but a fair warning: its nowhere near finished.

@Trace: I zap you with my lightning rod, dealing 64 points of damage.

Why does it say in 'Fast shooter'; If you successfully hit a target with your unarmed strike, you can immediately follow up with another attack against a different opponent.?

Shouldn't it be saying 'ranged attack' rather than unarmed strike?

So far, a Human Gunslinging Soldier.

Maybe a gun-for-rent or a bad-guy-turned-good that tries to make amends for his past wrongs.

That's cool. Trace's character is something along the lines of a wealthy aristrocrat who's on the run from Shinra after they discover she's a Cetra. Maybe you could be her hired bodyguard or somerhing. Lets see what Trace thinks.

Maybe even the guy send after her to capture her but in the end leaves Shinra to protect the said Cetra

Ooh, how romantic. Depends on whether or not your character is in the mood for a change of heart or not, which would depend on the circumstances of their meeting. I think at least one person is going SOLDIER though, so if you don't want things to overlap, the SOLDIER could be chasing my character and your character could be her hired help. Of course, if there is no SOLDIER character willing (or appropriate) to fill the roll, then feel free to have your character hired by Shinra to chase mine. Hell, maybe you'll manage to capture her but ultimately be struck by her charms as you travel, having a Shrek-like change of heart. Oh, the possibilities. I'll let Marc coordinate though.

I got caught up with something the last few days (besides pokemon) so I didn't finish my character yet, but with university looming, term starting tomorrow, I'll try and squeeze out a completed character sheet tonight to get it off my mind.

Well my character is just a regular Soldier, not SOLDIER 3rd class.

I might be a potental candidate for becomming one though, but let's leave that for later.

Just so everone can have a look at it so far, here is a (nowhere near) finished draft of the Monster Manual - Core Rulebook II.

It contains the following:

New Feats
New Playable Races
Rules on creating monsters (GM use only)
Rules on Chocobo Breeding
SOME monster stats.

Enjoy

Read the section titled "Becoming a Monster" on page 138 of the core rulebook and then refer to page 40 of the Monster Manual for the Mutant details

so basicly i get a d8 HD rather than classbased and i choose a special quality from the list in the monster manual?

along with a +2 monster bonus on all attack rolls and skill checks made with the following skills: Acrobatics, Climb, Initiative, Jump, Perception, Persuasion, Spellcasting, Stealth, and Swim?

Is that pretty close?

is there any other effects from being infused with the mako? or is becomming a mutant the effect and that effect alone?

As a mutant subtype, you also have access to the Demonic limit tree as well

Because you are mutated through a highly concentrated dose of mako, the Demonic limit tree is basically a way of saying you are able to transform into monstrous beings because of said mutation.

oh yes, will most likely go onto that one later :3


so my concept has changed a little.

He'll start out as A human (mutant) Soldier working for Shinra, sent on an assignment to bring back a certain person alive.

They've promised to return him to human if i does so (not that it's possible, but he doesn't know that).

So he's basicly working for Shinra for selfish reasons, but being a labrat of theirs to begin with doesn't really sooth his relation with them
