Text of the page (random words):
r benefit or liking which is far more likely to screw something up or crash the game gurps space i will go into more detail in the s³m section but here are the basics this information will also be repeated there for completeness i tend toward what i refer to as semi hard science in my sci fi stuff realistic but not too realistic reference the tv series babylon5 firefly or the new battlestar galactica high tech for all participants in the daniverse is ultimately at its root the result of true magick wod as developed and implemented by the technocracy or related groups and designed to be used by the non enlightened power and gravitic technology in the galaxy revolves around a substance i refer to as elerium 115 one of many names now known as ununpentium which i pulled from the game x com which got it from the accounts of bob lazar s supposed visits to area 51 if you don t know don t bother for power generation it is used in relatively small reactors featuring the mutual annihilation of anti matter also from lazar s story reactionless thrusters exist either as magnetic based drives or force magick wod manipulation and total conversion antimatter rockets are also available in the daniverse ftl is the standard fold space or jump theory and is the ultimate manifestation of correspondence magick wod it is basically instantaneous and has no side effects although its use of correspondence magick can sometimes result in paradox effects natural wormholes exist here and there as points where space is already folded onto itself there is no ftl communication or sensors precursor tech could possibly break any of these rules as the gm sees fit as to alien life forms i tend to dislike the endless menagerie of weirdness approach to alien species but i like having some aliens in the daniverse i have limited non human races to a total of around 20 or so including several which are considered secret and a few that have yet to be defined room to grow my general rule with aliens is that they should be distinctly not human but believable looking i also have tried to shy away from the clichés of modern sci fi like obvious beast men i haven t been entirely successful in either case but it s close enough for now and is always being refined gurps religion the daniverse has in the past featured the judeo christian god as the only real deity however he has not been featured in the foreground of any of my campaigns or adventures with one very old but notable exception old enough it won t appear on this site although he could be said to be a background element as manifested through the gm who generally sees to it that the good guys win he may appear in other cultures by other names other deities or pantheons exist but are generally the result of powerful influential magi wod or similar beings with the addition of the after the end campaign angels and demons have now been officially incorporated though in this case they are more extra dimensional aliens than their usual depiction old world of darkness revised i liked the original world of darkness setting immediately after being introduced to it accidentally in early 1993 even so as usually happens i began to recognize problems with it over time that doesn t mean i like it any less now really but in the daniverse there needed to be some changes this section will present the basic changes and implementation of the series with details to be presented in full in the house rules section white wolf has recently done a reboot of the entire series although i am marginally acquainted with the changes in the new stuff i am not familiar enough to incorporate any of those changes officially into the daniverse as yet since the group i play with doesn t play any white wolf games it is unlikely that i will become familiar with the new material any time soon for good or ill in this section i am assuming that you are at least marginally familiar with the world of darkness setting as to the more recent reboot of the setting i haven t really had any meaningful experience with it so i can neither legitimately comment on it nor incorporate any of it into my material for the full work up see the associated house rules page vampire the masquerade vampires in wod are a lot like angsty mafioso with teeth and super powers in the daniverse they are generally more dead like and less prone to active social lives there are also some movie conventions that were dropped from the wod for reasons i couldn t begin to explain that i have re introduced here a subtle behind the scenes change is that vampirism is a gengineered sentient and malevolent virus created by the changelings see s³m as an experiment to boost humanity s survivability the biggest change i think is the clan structure i have eliminated several clans that didn t make any sense including many of the lesser bloodlines some redundant clans have been mixed together with others the sabbat as a separate entity has been folded into the camarilla and sabbat exclusive clans have become camarilla in the daniverse vampires do not all originate from caine but all clans have their own originator and have differing ages each clan has its own clan specific bans or mystical disadvantages like being repelled by crosses or garlic or whatever some changes for vampires in the the daniverse are more functional for instance all vampires possess all the augmenting disciplines and have fewer clan specific disciplines in the daniverse disciplines are passed through the blood so learning the disciplines of another clan requires drinking the blood of one from that clan all vampires can fly with the flight discipline i never could come up with a spiffy wod name for that one one of those movie conventions that was abandoned for wod in wod vampires looked mostly human but could pass as human by expending blood points in the daniverse they look like animated corpses for the most part unless they spend bp this accounts for the effect in popular cinema where a vampire will adopt a monster face before attacking or whatnot as the vampire would drop his disguise the virus has a mind of its own and takes over the body once it dies but can be fought off allowing the former person s consciousness to remain mostly in control or the former consciousness could be restored by a gypsy curse incorporated daywalkers and blade himself incorporated the half vampire stage of becoming most notably in my recollection from lost boys vampires have individual methods of succumbing to second death also from lost boys werewolf the apocalypse werewolves in wod were one of the biggest disappointments for me as they are one of my favorite monsters but wod turned them into greenpeace wackos not so in the daniverse lycanthropy in the daniverse is also a gengineered virus like vampirism the two were in competition hence the animosity between the two species however since lycanthropes aren t dead the condition is hereditary one is however hard pressed to think of a cinematic representation where lycanthropy is not infectious so i have incorporated that aspect into the daniverse this brings up the born vs made issue in lycan society as for vtm some tribes have been dropped and some changed the black spirals no longer called dancers are not a separate tribe per se but what a lycan becomes or is called when he is cast out of polite lycan society generally for man eating or endangering the secrecy of others but includes those who have been physically altered by gazing into the abyss the evil dimension although lycans in wod suffer from rage issues i have taken that a step further and incorporated a bloodlust which peaks every month so a werewolf must shed innocent blood to satisfy it taken from the elder scrolls game series and some mythological references lycans have a mystical mark that is only visible in moonlight among werewolves this mark can easily be mistaken for a pentagram born lycans have an extended lifespan though they are not immortal society is less ecoterrorist and more survivalist living not unlike the fremen of dune but in the forests of earth though they still interact with and can travel through the spirit world it is less central to lycan society mage the ascension mta has changed the least when incorporated into the daniverse and is very prevalent throughout it in some form or another the biggest change is that spheres no longer stop at level 5 but they roll over continuously to a higher scale of effect for instance a magus with the matter sphere at level 6 could alter matter as normal for level 5 but could sense matter on a continental scale that same magus at level 10 could alter matter as for level 5 but on a continental scale these higher levels would be prohibitively expensive for beginning characters and probably would only be seen in the most powerful npcs of course those possessing those higher levels would be seen as gods by the unawakened a number of the traditions have been altered slightly but mostly in a cosmetic sense i think the technocracy in itself has not changed much except that i have eliminated the conventions altogether at the higher levels specifically with the symposium the technocracy is run by a society of changelings very similar to the mibs from dark city a great many of my campaigns have featured the technocracy as either a background or direct antagonist to some degree wraith the oblivion i have had the least contact with this book in the wod series and as such have not really incorporated it into the daniverse however there is a hard to find sourcebook for wto called the risen which deals with situations like the crow which has been incorporated into the daniverse changeling the dreaming as for wto i really haven t incorporated a lot of this one i have slightly modernized the feel of it though giving it more of a labyrinth flavor while incorporating elements from gurps celtic myth to make the fée more historical all in all i would say ctd has had more of an effect on other elements of the daniverse specifically the fantasy stuff than the daniverse has had on it others as the other lesser books are part of the world of darkness they are a part of the daniverse as well to whatever extent they have cropped up in the course of things the unofficial highlander the gathering has had the most effect simply by incorporating the movie series into the wod and a rather good job of it i must say wod sorceror is indirectly evident in most of the contemporary magic situations although i have had little contact with it hunter the reckoning is subtlely present through the use of gurps supers and best represents situations like the buffy the vampire slayer series sources and analogues influences inspirations and outright plagiarisms that make up the whole the following are some random examples and do not represent the totality of what has been incorporated into the daniverse movies aliens predator avp series the look and feel of the movies figures heavily into the s³m setting and the stories happened as depicted with a few minor adjustments primarily places and nations involved although it had some problems i didn t hate the 3rd movie in the series as did most people i know however the 4th movie absolutely did not happen and should be ignored and if you haven t seen it don t think of the 3rd as the last movie in the series predator and predator2 happened as depicted although i suspect the situation in la of 1997 as depicted was considerably less chaotic aliens versus predator the movie was really bad and as such did not happen but something like that may have the avp games story wise also did not happen but could have i suppose since i am mostly unfamiliar with the comic book series or any other literary representation of the franchise they have not been included in the daniverse event horizon not the best movie ever but it yielded good inspirational results for me as a story it probably did happen although i haven t included the incident in the timeline what is prevalent in the daniverse however is the concept of the evil dimension around which the depicted incident revolved in the daniverse it is a realm within the deep umbra wod which has an adverse effect on those who encounter it and is home to many things man was not meant to know in the daniverse swiss artist h r giger looked into that dimension briefly from which he drew the inspiration for many of his paintings animals introduced to that dimension are generally mutated into evil giger esque creatures the concept of the evil dimension hereafter referred to as the abyss also meshes well with the buffy the vampire slayer angel alternate dimension elements highlander the first movie highlander is the only one that happened in the daniverse as it is the only one that is any good ignore the rest including the tv series rules are as per the unofficial wod source highlander the gathering with a few exceptions no female immortals as implied by the first movie one immortal per region e g only one highlander as implied by first movie the gathering occurs during the wod ascension apocalypse reckoning etc the watchers organization from the series is combined with the watchers from buffy the vampire slayer into a single organization the matrix the first movie was solidly entertaining but i pretty much breeze over most of the details of the second and third movies in any case it needs some modification to work properly in the daniverse some examples the matrix the consensus wod the fabric of reality as enforced by the technocracy tradition magi have recently taken to calling it the matrix zion the traditions wod secret chantry new horizon location known only to cell leaders matrix s reality wod traditions chantries and realms like the matrix it is dangerous for magi to leave the chantry since the technocracy has eyes everywhere and they must use time wisely when they go in agents powerful paradox wod spirits created summoned by the technocracy specifically to hunt down deviants magi phone lines are a common focus used to teleport correspondence sop for magi is to teleport to a secluded spot near their destination rather than travel there physically stargate the movie stargate happened in the daniverse pretty much unchanged except that ra was a changeling see s³m races and the planet they went to was situated within the milky way galaxy although i wasn t generally disgusted by the stargate sg 1 tv series and spinoffs it just doesn t fit in the daniverse so ignore it the stargate itself is precursor tech referred to in the series as the ancients and is not reproducible by any of the civilizations that currently exist in the galaxy unbreakable happened as depicted in the daniverse prime timeline happened as depicted but a bit earlier in the twigen superhero alternate timeline and is one of the first modern superhero appearances underworld and related series the first underworld movie could have happened with little to no tinkering as it was obviously ...
