Big Hands (-15 Points)

Big Hands can be a difficult problem. Ultra fine manipulation is extremely difficult and
is equivalent to -4 Manual Dexterity, if it's at all possible. Examples include: buttoning
shirts, zipping zippers, sewing, tying knots, typing, pushing most small machine buttons,
weapon triggers, magazine release buttons, etc. Usually the handicapped person must
use a pencil or some other instrument to activate any push-button not designed with such
peole in mind (most modern equipment is, wherever possible).
Luckily, most equipment can be retro fitted to accommodate large users: weapon trigger
guards can be filed off and triggers elongated, buttons can be made larger by adding
expansion plates, Velcro instead of snaps, etc. This usually costs from 10%-60% the cost
of the item. A full weapon conversion costs +50%.
One advantage however is a single large hand can effectively grasp most items as if by
two human sized hands, at a penalty of -4 (e.g. ST-4). This means a big handed
individual can strangle a man one-handed. Kind of intimidating....
Rules
Characters are built on a base of 150 points, with up to 80 points of disads and 5 quirks.
We're using the rules from the GURPS Basic Set, Compendium I, Magic, Grimoire, and
Cyberpunk, except when they are superseded by these files. In particular, the cyberware
list is replaced by what is attached. Some more 'ware, equipment, and spells will be
released soon. A summary of the base mechanics is available as GURPS Lite from Steve
Jackson Games' web site. Spell lists are available in this directory; I'll try to clean them
up and add effects as soon as possible.
For people who want stuff they've seen in a SR Sourcebook converted to GURPS, let me
know. In general, stuff will convert pretty easily... (L,M,S,D) becomes
(1d6,2d6,3d6,4d6).
Except, of course, that it doesn't. I hate random-damage tables. So what I'd like to use
instead of (hit for Nd6+M) is (M + N*S) where S is one half of the margin of success,
ranging from 0 to 5 (Exact success is 0, success by 10 is a crit). On a critical success, S
is 6, in addition to any other effects. All effects of hit location, such as brain and vitals,
remain. This should speed up the combat system somewhat, by requiring fewer die rolls.
In the case of explosives and the like, the skill roll is vs. Demolitions for the person who
placed the bombs against the target he intended, and random against anybody else
nearby. Some things, like fire, are still random. Eit.
Magic is mechaniced fairly simply; spend the fatigue, make a die roll, and something
happens. In the game universe, it's more complicated. All magicians are at -1 to skill if
the player tries to "just do it". Roleplaying of simple rituals gets the base skill; bonuses
of +1 to +2 may be permitted for more elaborate rituals, particularly use of expended
props and fetishes. For shamans, all of these numbers are doubled. Mages use normal
spells; Shamans use rune-magic, which is way spiffy. A word about shamanism -- all
shamans should take a level or three of Shamanism, some runes, and a Patron
(Extremely Powerful Individual, +15, Has Better Magic +5, Rarely (6 or less) *1/2, for a
total cost of 10), which is their totem.
Other rules changes will appear here in the future.
