These are just Ideas I've had for creating a BioShock rpg during a spontanious brainstorming sesh.
Being that this is my first time doing such a herculean task, I would be very relieved if I could make this into a collaboration with some others with more experiance than I.
d100 system?
3d6 system?
gamerist or narrativist?
adam instead of exp
BRP skill advancement
Classes or classless?
racial character options (norm,splicer, b.daddy,etc.)?
Definately a moral/sanity system.
EVE is used much like 'vitae' point from VtR
Plasmids have upgrade system
list of plasmids
Enrage
This can be used to make the target feel extreme rage and attack the nearest thing.
potency and longevity increase per level
Electro Bolt
A burst of electricity at your fingertips.
Strength and range increase per level. Chain hits may occur after a certain number of
increases
Incinerate
User hurls fire balls at enemies.
Also used in melting ice.
Intensity, range and AoE increase per level.
Sonic Boom
Use this to create a powerful blast of air,
knocking enemies in front of you off their feet.
Telekinesis
Mental manipulation of objects. Distance from, and weight of affected objects increase per
upgrade.
Cyclone Trap
A trap which sends anyone who walks over it flying into the air.
Longevity and power increase per plasmid upgrade.
Hypnotize
The clue is in the name. Effectiveness and duration of effect increase per level.
Insect Swarm
Unleash a barage of hornets onto your victim with this plasmid. Range, AoE and power increase per level.
Security Bullseye
Whoever feels the wrath of this plasmid instantly becomes a target for security cameras and mounted gun turrets,
creating a helpful diversion. Duration of effect increase per upgrade
Target Dummy
Another tool of distraction. Summon the illusion of a dummy to distract foes.
Duration and effectiveness increases per level bought.
Winter Blast
Freeze anything that lies in your path. Power and Longevity increase per level.
Gen Tonics are bought with ADAM points like Plasmid, but offer passive abilities.
They often only posess one level to two levels unlike Plasmids.
List of Gene Tonics (both from the game, and hopefully even some original)
still in brainstorming.
If any one has any suggestions or want to be an active part of this, let me know in the comments.
Thanks
