Personal Details
"After enmeshing oneself so deeply with a thing, it is difficult to fully pull away. Even if the thing itself is painful or distasteful."
Liu Lin's Theme
Before Second Impact, Liu Lin was a young but brilliant colonel in the People's Liberation Army, assigned to the Jinan military district. Her employment into the army was unusual, as typically women were not permitted to serve in anything but a support capacity- her presence was due to secret sponsorship from a high ranking general. Lin took great pains to hide her gender, nevertheless.
When Second Impact hit, China came to the brink of collapse due to heavy floods and other natural disasters that saw hundreds of millions die. The central government broke down- in many places, especially southern and western China, warlords- using bandits, conscripted soldiers or even salvaged army units- became commonplace.
Through luck or something else, Liu Lin found herself in the enviable position of having most of her superiors dead or incapacitated whilst her assigned units were almost completely unharmed. With this in mind, Liu Lin used those troops to enforce her own will onto the Jinan military district, absorbing other military units into her growing army and establishing a power base by sheltering and providing a rough but effective law to those within her domain. Her numbers quickly swelled, and within a few months, Liu Lin controlled the largest military in the country.
This was bad news for her fellow warlords. Colonel Liu was a military mastermind of unique talent, and she had little intent to spare those who challenged her. She would offer enemy warlords only one chance to surrender. If they accepted, they were forced into retirement; if they refused, they were eventually killed. With her relatively well-equipped and well led armies, Liu Lin would defeat foe after foe to go on to reunify a ravaged China in little over a year and a half.
Now in yet another enviable position- the supreme leader of China's forces and unchallenged by any, Liu Lin could have turned the country into her own personal domain. However, this was not her original goal, and it wasn't a goal she intended to pursue. The 'Tiger of Jinan', as she was known, instead pursued an aggressive rebuilding policy, employing tens of thousands of men and women of talent to revitalize the cities and fields, and setting up education centres to teach them the required talents. At the same time, she set about reconstructing the Chinese government into its current form- that of the Chinese Federation. Once her tasks were complete, she relinquished military control to the President and resumed her original posting as Colonel.
Naturally, this was not meant to be. She quickly found herself being dragged up from the top. She was immediately promoted to General and tasked with the Southeast Asia Campaign- which she conducted skilfully, if somewhat reluctantly. After that, she lobbied the government to turn its forces over to the UN as part of the Valentine's Day Treaty. The government dare not refuse.
The next 8 years saw Liu Lin slowly become more and more ingrained into the political climate of China, even if she neither intended or wanted it. Eventually she found herself unable to act without her actions influencing the government- something she had tried to avoid. It was due to this that she resigned completely from her position, instead undertaking trips around the world, seeing sights and establishing a university in western China. This was how Lin lived until the Ramliel attack. Shortly after its devastation, NERV approached her, offering her the position of OD of NERV China. She accepted.

Skill Name | Acrobatics |
---|---|
Characteristic | Agility |
Action | Full Action unless otherwise noted |
Description | |
Acrobatics is the skill of moving with agility, grace and balance. Balancing on a tight rope, understanding the best stance for a jump, or somersaulting away from an enemy- all of these are uses of Acrobatics. Use of Acrobatics include keeping your balance in unstable or uneven ground, jumping from a height and landing without harming yourself, or moving around enemies without slowing down. | |
Special Uses | |
Maneuvering | You may make a Disengage action (normally a Full Action) as a Half Action, so long as you pass an Acrobatics +0 test first. |
Contortionist | As a Full Action, you may test Acrobatics to free yourself from bonds or restraints. This may only be tested once to escape restraints; if you fail the first time, then you are simply too tightly bound to wriggle free. This test may be modified depending on the quality of the bonds. You may also use Acrobatics to escape from a grapple in place of testing Strength or Agility. |
Jumping | When jumping or leaping, you may test Acrobatics in place of Agility and Strength tests. |

Specialist Skill Reference Cards
Skill Name | Linguist |
---|---|
Characteristic | Intelligence |
Action | Free Action |
Specialist Examples | English, French, Japanese, Russian |
Description | |
Linguist represents the ability to speak and understand a language. Most of the time, there is no need to test Linguist in regular conversation. Tests may be needed for particularly difficult tasks, such as understanding an extremely thick accent or understanding a garbled radio message. However, this skill may also be tested when trying to decipher or understand a language you are not familiar with. Generally, even the most basic of sentences from another language requires a Linguist test to understand, with bonuses or penalties being applied depending on how close the language is to one of your own: for example, it is much easier for someone who speaks Spanish to understand Portuguese than it is for them to understand Chinese. Sometimes the necessary context is simply missing, and Linguist tests are impossible. |

Interpersonal Talents
Talent Name | Talent Sub-Title | Effect |
---|---|---|
Basic Talents | ||
Air of Authority | - | When using the Command action, you may issue commands to a number of people equal to 1,000 times your Fellowship Bonus. Only NPCs are affected, and any NPCs not under your command will only obey the order if you achieve more degrees of success than their WPB. Your Followers also have +10 Loyalty when in your presence, and your subordinates may reroll any attached Hordes may reroll failed Break, Fear, and Pinning tests and take the preferred result, so long as you are within visual or audial contact with them. |
Beyond Reproach | - | When interacting with others, you may spend a Fate Point. Any negative modifiers to their disposition towards you due to your reputation, second-hand knowledge or the like is ignored for the rest of the encounter. |
Cold Hearted | - | Any use of the Charm skill against you gives you a +20 to the Opposed Test to resist the skill in addition to other modifiers. |

Eloquent | - | You may reroll Charm, Inquiry and Deceive tests and take the preferred result. |
Mimic | '- | Given about an hour of study, you may mimic the voice of another. It takes a -10 Scrutiny test to figure out it's a faked voice (or +0 if you weren't able to converse with the person face-to-face). Of course, if the listener knows the appearance of the mimicked voice's owner, and it's clear to them that the user doesn't look like them, then the deception fails. In Social Conflicts, if you use this talent to mimic, mock and disparage the opponent, then the opponent loses 1d10 Willpower on a loss, not 1d5. |
Unremarkable | - | You're easily forgettable, and blend into a crowd easily. Attempts to recall your face or spot you in a crowd take a -20 penalty, and you take a +20 bonus to Deceive tests to persuade someone that they've never seen you before. This talent doesn't work if you're particularly distinctive in relation to the crowd or are wearing unique or flashy items- an unremarkable Iron Guard might be able to lose themselves in a crowd of other Guard, but they always stand out in a crowd of biotypicals. |
Veiled Threats | - | You use Fellowship in place of Strength for the purposes of Intimidate tests. |

Furthermore, the Character counts as having Fear (2) for the purposes of all Terrify tests. Finally, any allies within range of you suffering from Mental effects already (Break, Fear, Pinning, Frenzy and others) may make an immediate free WP test to shake off the effects, with a +5 bonus per DoS on your Terrify test. |
Inspirational | - | All allies within 2km of you take a +10 to tests to resist Break, Fear, Pinning or Intimidation. Furthermore, when using the 'Inspire' use of the Command Skill, you may increase the bonus by +5 per 3 degrees of success. |
Inspire Emotion | - | On purchasing this talent you gain access to the below effects. |
- | Courage | Your rhetoric grants you a +20 to Interaction Tests when inspiring bravery in the face of fear- which grants them a +10 bonus against fear or distress effects.

This Talent can be combined with Air of Authority and Master Orator to further increase the number of listeners affected. |
- | Fear | Your rhetoric grants you a +20 to Interaction Tests when whipping up a person- or persons'- fears, granting them a -10 penalty versus fear or distress effects. This Talent doubles the upper limit of the number of individuals affected when doing so. This Talent can be combined with Air of Authority and Master Orator to further increase the number of listeners affected. Furthermore, it allows the Intimidation skill to, should your degrees of success exceed that of your target's Willpower Bonus, force them to take a fear test immediately. |
- | Friendship | Your rhetoric grants you a +20 to Interaction Tests when inspiring cooperation or promoting mediation. This Talent doubles the upper limit of the number of individuals affected when doing so. This Talent can be combined with Air of Authority and Master Orator to further increase the number of listeners affected. |
- | Wrath | Your rhetoric grants you +20 to Interaction Tests when inspiring hatred or anger. This Talent doubles the upper limit of the number of individuals affected when doing so.

Master Orator | - | You gain a +10 bonus to Fellowship and Fellowship skill tests against crowds; when using the Charm or Intimidate action, you may affect a number of people equal to 1,000 times your Fellowship Bonus. Such is your charisma that all Followers gain a permanent +10 to Loyalty. |
Networking | - | At the start of each Campaign Turn, you may, for the duration of that turn, gain FB/2 ranks in the Peer trait, distributed as you like. |
Polyglot | - | You may treat the Speak Language skill as a Basic Skill, meaning you can make untrained skill tests in it. This gives you simple understanding of most languages, but you have to pass a Speak Language skill test to achieve more than just the most basic exchange of information or ideas. |
Elite Talents | ||
Charm Offensive | - | Select a number between 1 and your Fellowship Bonus. For a number of minutes equal to ten times your FB, you are treated as having Unnatural Fellowship (X), where X is the number you chose. At the end of the allotted time period, however, you take levels of fatigue equal to X. |
Double Agent | - | With the GM's permission, once per Campaign Turn, you may, as a Free Action spend Fate when dealing with an NPC. That NPC is revealed to have been your ally; you instantly gain +30 to all Interaction tests with them, and if this NPC is part of a group, you gain a +10 to all social and investigative tests associated with that group until the end of the Turn. Note that it is unlikely that this Talent will be permitted against NPCs with 2 or more Fates, or NPCs with the Soul-Bound trait. |
Into the Jaws of Hell | - | Your Followers, subordinates and any attached Hordes take a +20 to their Break, Fear, and Pinning tests, so long as you are within visual or audial contact with them. |

- | Defense Team | So long as a Beneficiary is adjacent to another Beneficiary, they gain +2 AP. Once per turn, so long as they're adjacent to another Beneficiary, one of the Beneficiaries may spend a Fate Point to generate a single Reaction that any Beneficiary can use. |

Talent Name | Talent Sub-Title | Effect |
---|---|---|
Basic Talents | ||
Able Assistant | - | Whenever you use the 'Assist' action on another character making a skill test, they gain a +10 bonus to their attempt. This does not stack with itself (ie. If assisted by two people with Able Assistant, the total is +30, not +40). |

Advanced Talents | ||
Lend a Hand | - | This character may spend a Full Action to grant an adjacent character a +10 to any actions that character takes until the start of the assisting character's next turn. This includes Reactions. |
