Hubris DCC- Declassifying Races… Oh I Made a Pun.

One criticism I always see lobbied against Dungeon Crawl Classics is the use of Race as Class.  To be honest it is not something I am overly fond of either, however I accept the use of it in DCC as it really is a fun and amazing game, and not that big of a deal.

However with writing Hubris and the goal of publishing the damned thing (eventually) I wanted to create an option to allow any race to be any class.  Obviously this would be optional and the GM can rule that the DCC rule of race as class stands.

I tried to do was keep the essence of the races I’ve created for Hubris (here is my other Hubris Setting info) as well as the normal DCC races with this optional rule.

Feel free to give feedback.

Hubris Races

 

*= Created by me to add balance in conjunction with other races.

 

Human– Humans tend to be multifaceted and have a drive to succeed.  A human starts with two occupations and adds +2 to an attribute of their choosing (however no attribute can go above 18). *

Lucky as a Human– A human character can burn a point of luck to reroll a failed roll (be it skill, attack, or save).  This works in addition to any class uses of luck.*

___________________________________________________________

Ekrask

Infravision: An Ekrask can see in the dark up to 60’.

Natural Weapons: An Ekrask has a nasty bite attack that deals 1d4 damage, and razor sharp claws that deal 1d6 damage.  An Ekrask is never considered unarmed.

Blood Spout: Once per day an Ekrask can shoot blood out of its eyes.  The Ekrask must make a ranged attack against target; if hit the target must make a Fort save (DC 12) or be stunned for 1d3 rounds.  The smell of the blood makes target easier to track by scent (granting a +2 bonus to skill check rolls).

Tracker: All Ekrask are natural trackers and it as a trained skill, rolling a d20 instead of a d10.

Rage: An Ekrask is a savage fighter that is able to tap into their ferocious nature and attack with reckless abandon.  When raging an Ekrask ups their damage die one level, receives +2 to saving throws against mind altering affects and fear, and ignores 2 points of physical damage.  They also incur -2 to AC and -2 to Intelligence checks.  The rage lasts a number of rounds equal to one half level rounded down +1 (minimum of 2 rounds at level 1). The Ekrask can rage a number of times per day equal to their Stamina bonus (minimum of 1).  They cannot use any abilities that require concentration.  If all enemies are felled before the duration of Rage runs out the Ekrask will attack friends.  A successful Will check (DC 15) each round for the duration allows the Ekrask to resist the bloodlust and avoid attacking a friend.

Half Demon

Infernal Resistance: +2 to saves against one of the following types of damage, whether magical or natural: Roll 1d3- 1) Fire; 2) Cold; 3) Electric.

Demonic Vulnerabilities: You can be turned by a cleric that has demons and devils listed as unholy creatures, although you get +2 to your save.  You take 1d4 additional damage from Cold Iron weapons and holy water.

Demonic Powers: 

Increased Speed– Increase speed by 20’

Increased Armor– Increase armor class by +4

Claws– Grow claws that do 1d6 damage.

Immunity– Become immune to damage based on resistance you rolled.

Regeneration– Regain 2 HP a round.

Resistance- Choose another form of damage in Infernal Resistance and gain +2 to saves.

To utilize a demonic power the half demon must make a successful Will save (DC 15).  If successful the player choose the ability they want to use and this effect starts at the beginning of the next round and lasts a number of rounds equal to the half demon’s level +1.  Failure means that the half demon cannot use any further Demonic Powers the day.  Rolling of a 1 represents a loss of humanity.  Roll on one time for each column on the Demonic Corruption Table.  When a half demon has suffered demonic corruption five times, they must make a Will save (DC 15 with a negative 5 modifier to the roll) to retain their sense of self.  Failure means that the half demon’s humanity has been consumed and the full cruelty and terror of their demonic side has taken over.  The character becomes a villain NPC and the player must make a new character.

If the player succeeds on the Will roll successfully win the fight for their soul for the moment.  Each time they lose further humanity the half demon must make the Will save, again at DC 15 but now with additional negative modifiers equal to attempts (IE- A Half-Demon that has had an additional loss of humanity must make the Will save with a -6 to their roll.

A character does not gain any further corruptions after 5, but must still make the rolls to save their soul.

Demonic Corruption
Roll	Effect 1	Roll	Effect 2
1	Feet become cloven hooves- +5 pace	1	Holy water does 1d8 damage.
2	Have claws constantly (1d6 damage).  Use of Demonic Power raises damage to d8.	2	Visage becomes more demonic; -2 to Charisma.
3	Eyes become red and bloody.  Gain Infravision 30’ radius.  Lose lowlight vision.	3	A burnt, sulfuric smell hangs around you.
4	Demonic Health- Increase your HD to d8; also roll right now for some additional HP.	4	Your touch burns and irritates others.  They must make a Fort save or take 1 point of damage per round.
5	Wings sprout out of your back.  Fly at a pace of 30’.	5	Daylight bothers you.  All your physical stats are rolled with a d16 while in the sunlight.
6	You grow a barbed tail that can attack at 1d16 and does 1d4 damage.	6	Lose your +2 saves against turn checks, instead suffer -2.
7	You grow horns that do 1d4 damage.	7	Lay on hands now harms you.
8	Fiendish Resistance- Increase your resistance to damage type by +2.	8	Cold Iron now does 1d8 damage to you.
9	Gain ability to cast Darkness as an arcane spell*.	9	If you look in a mirror you must make Will save or become terrified at what you become and unable to act until successful save.
10	Fiendish Strength- Increase Strength +2 (max of 18).	10	You have an unsettling aura about you.  Normal people shy away from you, while the religious will attack you outright.

* As per cleric spell of same name. Because the wizard version of the spell is a different spell level, the wizard receives a -2 penalty to spell checks when casting it. For example, binding is a level 2 cleric spell but a level 3 wizard spell; therefore, when rolling on the spell table, the wizard applies a -2 penalty to spell checks. On a result of natural 1, the wizard suffers a 50% chance of major corruption or misfire, rolling on the generic tables as appropriate (Taken from DCC, pg 127).

Luck: A Half Demon gets their luck modifier on their Will Save for Demonic Powers.

Kenku 

Luck: Kenku are able to use their luck in ways normal mortals cannot.  They are able to use Luck in the following ways:

• A kenku can burn their luck as per normal and gain a modifier on their rolls equal to the amount burned.
• A kenku can also burn a point of luck to make another target unlucky.  The target gets a Will save (DC 12), if successful the target cannot be affected by this again for 24 hours.  If the Will check fails the target has been jinxed and must roll their next attack, save, skill check twice and take the lower of the two.

A kenku recovers luck quicker than the other races.  With a full night of rest a kenku recovers 1d3 Luck Points back.  They cannot go above their maximum score.

Low-Light Vision: A kenku can in near dark conditions normally up to 30’.

Transformation: Once a day a kenku us able to transform themselves into a human form (this human form shows all scars, corruption, and deformities that the kenku has gotten through their rough and tumble journey).  This transformation is truly horrible to witness as bones jut out and pus and strange clear liquids and blood spew forth from the body.  Any target that witnesses this transformation must make a Fort save DC 12 or become nauseated, suffering -2 to all rolls for 1d6 rounds.  The transformation lasts as long as the kenku desires, and takes 1 turn to transform or revert back to normal.

Murder Machine

Construct: As a bizarre living construct a murder machine does not require sleep, food, or air.  They are also immune to diseases and poisons.  Due to being a construct normal magical means of healing are not as effective on you, only giving you half the amount (minimum of 1HP back).

Natural Armor: The body of a murder machine is made of tough metal and wood and gives natural armor protection.  Treat the armor class of a Murder Machine as being equipped with scale mail (+4).  Due to this natural construction a murder machine suffers no check penalties skill checks.

Punch Them in the Face: A murder machine’s fist is hard metal and wood and does 1d4 damage.

Swiss-Army Hand– A murder machine is built to kill, and as such is outfitted with a hand that can rotate and become one of three weapons.  At evel one a player chooses three weapons from the following list: hand crossbow*, dagger, flail, hand axe, mace, short sword, wheellock pistol*†

* Weapon must be reloaded per standard DCC rules.

† Weapon is from the Hubris setting.

• Thick Plating– The natural armor of the murder machine is increased by +2, as though they are wearing banded mail.
• Shoulder Cannon– Small cannon that sits atop your shoulder.  Loud explosions and lots of painful damage.  Roll 2d12 and take the higher of the two.  The attack roll is made at one step lower on the die ladder.  The shoulder cannon takes 3 rounds to reload.
• Shrapnel Explosion– You were designed to do as much damage as possible should you be deactivated.  When you fall unconscious bits of metal and pellet burst from you in a 10ft radius.  All in that zone take 2d8 damage (Ref Save DC 12 for half damage).

Outsider:  People tend to be uncomfortable in your presence.  Any personality check you make is reduced one step on the die ladder.

10	Bad Aura Sense– You suffer -2 to your Intelligence check when attempting to use Blood Hound.  If you roll this again lower die roll to a d16 when using Blood Hound.
11	Transference- Any creature you attack with your natural attacks (bite, claws, etc) has a chance of corrupting another creature.  They must succeed a Fort Save (DC 15) to resist.  Failure means the creature will transform in 24 hours.  The target gains one cosmetic mutation, 1 power mutation, and one corruption mutation.  They do not gain any further mutations after this.  They also keep whatever class they are, but are not treated as a mutant for purposes of Turning Unholy, etc.  If you roll this a second time, reroll.
12	Compulsion- You develop an unhealthy craving for something and must make a Will save (DC 15) each day to resist doing it.  Craving: 1) eating fecal matter; 2) burying yourself in fecal matter; 3) eating rocks; 4) Cutting up your own flesh, dealing 1d4 damage, and drinking your blood; 4) licking complete strangers; 5) drinking urine; 6) driving spike into your flesh and leaving it (1d4 damage); 7) catching and eating insects; 8) masturbating in public.  You can roll this multiple times, gaining several different Compulsions.

DCC Races

 

Dwarf

Sword and board– Dwarves excel at fighting with a shield in one hand and a weapon in the other. When fighting with a shield, a dwarf always gains a shield bash as a second attack. This shield bash uses a d14 to hit (instead of a d20). The dwarf adds his deed die to this number, as with all attacks, and can attempt Mighty Deeds of Arms involving the shield as well as his weapon. The shield bash does 1d3 damage. Some dwarves customize their shields with spikes or sharp edges to do more damage, while others enchant their shields with unique powers. Dwarves with multiple action dice (levels 5+) still receive only one shield bash each round.

Infravision– A dwarf can see in the dark up to 60’.

Slow– A dwarf has a base movement speed of 20’, as opposed to 30’ for humans.

Underground Skills– Long life beneath the ground trains dwarves to detect certain kinds of construction. When underground, dwarves receive a bonus to detect traps, slanting passages, shifting walls, and other new construction equal to their class level. Additionally, a dwarf can smell gold and gems. A dwarf can tell the direction of a strong concentration of gold

Hearty– Dwarves roll two dice and take the higher of the two when determining HP upon gaining a new level.  They also receive immune to all natural poisons and to gain +2 to saves against disease.*

Elf

Mithril– Elves often wear armor of mithril, even though it affects their spellcasting. Because of their sensitivity to iron (as explained below), elf characters are trained from an early age with mithril weapons. Before they depart on a life of adventure, they have acquired mithril equipment. At 1st level, an elf character may purchase one piece of armor and one weapon that are manufactured of mithril at no additional cost. Mithril armor weighs slightly less than iron or steel armor of the same type and can be worn by the elf without the pain normally associated with metal armors.

Magic– Elven life is steeped in magic.  An elf character begins play with 2 level one spells.  This is in conjunction with the spells gain by the Wizard of Cleric class.

Supernatural patrons– Like wizards, elves can invoke supernatural patrons. An elf automatically receives the spells patron bond and invoke patron at 1st  level in addition to his other spells.

Infravision– An elf can see in the dark up to 60’.

Immunities– Elves are immune to magical sleep and paralysis.

Vulnerabilities– Elves are extremely sensitive to the touch of iron. Direct contact over prolonged periods causes a burning sensation, and exposure at close distances makes them uncomfortable. An elf may not wear iron armor or bear the touch of iron weapons for extended periods.  Prolonged contact with iron causes 1 hp of damage per day of direct contact.

Heightened Senses– Elves are astute and observant. All elf characters receive a +4 bonus to detect secret doors. Moreover, when simply passing within 10 feet of a secret door, elves are entitled to a check to detect it.

Halfling

Two-weapon Fighting– Halflings are masters at two-weapon fighting, as follows:

• Normally, two-weapon fighting depends on the character’s Agility to be effective (see pages 94-95). A halfling is always considered to have a minimum Agility of 16 when fighting with two weapons. This means he rolls at -1 die for his first attack and second, based on the dice chain (typically 1d16 for his first attack, and 1d16 for his second).
• A halfling can fight with two equal-sized one handed weapons, such as two handaxes or two short swords.
• Unlike other characters, when fighting with two weapons, a halfling scores a crit and automatic hit on any roll of a natural 16.
• If the halfling has an Agility score higher than 16, he instead uses the normal two- weapon fighting rules for his Agility.
• When fighting with two weapons, the halfling fumbles only when both dice come up a 1.

Infravision– Halflings can see in the dark up to 30’.

Small size– Halflings are 2 to 4 feet tall, and can move and crawl in narrow passages and the like.

Stealth– Halflings are quite good at sneaking around and receive a +4 to sneaking silently and hiding in shadows.  This is treated as a class skill no matter rolled occupation.

Good luck charm– Halflings are notoriously lucky. A halfling gains additional bonuses when expending Luck, as follows.

First, a halfling doubles the bonus of a Luck check. For every 1 point of Luck expended, a halfling gains a +2 to his roll.

Second, unlike other classes, a halfling recovers lost Luck to a limited extent. The halfling’s Luck score is restored each night by a number of points equal to his level. This process cannot take his Luck score past its natural maximum. (The process works similar to how the thief ability is described, above.)

Third, a halfling’s luck can rub off on those around him. The halfling can expend Luck to aid his allies. The ally in question must be nearby and visible to the halfling. The halfling can act out of initiative order to burn Luck and apply it to the ally’s rolls. The halfling loses the Luck, and the ally receives the benefit. The halfling’s Luck modifier can apply to any roll made by an ally: attack rolls, damage rolls, saves, spell checks, thief skills, and so on.

Note that the good luck charm ability applies to only one halfling in the party. There is luck to having a halfling with an adventuring party, but there is not “more luck” to having more than one halfling. If multiple halflings accompany an adventuring party, only one of them counts as a good luck charm, and that cannot change through rearranging or separating the party. Luck is a fickle thing governed by gods and game masters, and players would do well not to attempt to manipulate the spirit of this rule.
