Types of Humans(races)

In Iron Gridlocke it has been confirmed that there is only one race, the human race. However, there is such thing as sub-types of humans. Each sub-type has a more detailed description complete with history and nearly everything they are capable of, for now, this page is meant to give a brief description of each one.

The sub-types are as follows:


Unaltered

The Unaltered are just ordinary humans with no special abilities.

Unaltered is just another name for the average human but is vastly used by most of the known galaxy due to the existence of different types of humans. While the Unaltered lack physical and mental ability when compared to the others, they make up for it all by being Fast Learners, Natural Athletes, or even Dangerously Charismatic. Unaltered gain +8 to Luck and are capable of picking any trait that is not specific for the other sub-types. They can have 2 bonus traits upon creation instead of 1. Additionally, they can pick up 2 Ace traits upon reaching level 60.

Linkers

A Linker is a human that has undergone minor cybernetic augment surgery to be more mentally attuned, they are capable of thinking 5 times faster than the average human, able to react 2 times as fast, and can even link their subconscious with machines to operate them. Most lack the physical prowess to complete the more manual task if one were to compare them to the others, however, they make up for it with their mental awareness, with some even being able to see two steps into the future.

Linkers will receive +6 to Intelligence and +3 Agility stats, as well as the ability to once every 3 turns spend two actions on dodging an attack that would have been lethal. (They must declare clearly when they are using this by saying so OOC in parentheses next to their action.)

Genetics

Genetics are genetically enhanced human beings, which can have a number of enhanced traits including faster learning, and stronger and faster bodies that are virtually immune to diseases. The standard Genetic focuses primarily on enhancing their physical prowess rather than their mental awareness. As such they will receive +6 to Strength and +3 Agility stats, as well as the ability to once every 3 turns make a frenzied attack for two actions that deals double the normal amount of damage if it hits. (They must declare clearly when they are using this by saying so OOC in parentheses next to their action.)

Ex-Gens

Ex-Gen is a new and highly experimental genetic that is meant to combine the physical aspects of a Genetic with the mental aspects of a Linker. They are not as strong as a Genetic but they are capable of meeting their physical abilities with small drawbacks, the same can be said when comparing their mental capabilities to Linkers. They do seem to have one unforeseen ability to heighten their overall ability for a short time. Because of this, they gain +3 Strength, +3 Intelligence, and +3 Luck stats.

Additionally, once every 4 turns they will have the ability to spend two action points on utilizing their real potential giving them 2x stats for a post.

Androids

Machines that look like man, they are capable of doing everything and more with little to no effort at all. They have one drawback, they lack what makes humans, human. They receive +3 to all stats. They cannot choose any of the human traits and instead have an exclusive list of their own. Additionally, they can supercharge their bodies every 4 turns with an electric current that stuns and damages anyone they touch. (This race will be the hardest one to get so good luck.)
