(TFT) bulbasaurs (AKA I've been watching too much pokemon with my kids)



Bulbasaur
ST 8         HS/A 2
DX 14      MA 6
IQ 7
Weighing 7kg and measuring 71cm long,  this burly symbiont of plant and
reptile comes from a parallel plane where energy exists in a more pliable
and sentient level.  It resembles a squat bluish lizard with a large green
bulb on its back.

It is unknown how they got to Cidri but are assumed to have been brought by
the Mnoren. Bulbasaurs are able to be trained and have the intelligence of a
very smart dog or giant. They will respond to someone with either animal or
monster follower talents. They are mildly empathic and can communicate base
emotions and simple messages with their masters. The only word they say is
'bulbasaur', though experienced masters can pick up the nuances in their
voices.

A bulbasaur can bite for 1d6 - 2 damage but its main attack is with leech
seeds, which it fires from its bulb (treat as a missile weapon for range).
The seeds fly in a low arc but have some limited homing ability, and embed
themselves in the target and drain 1fST over 3 turns, which is transferred
to the bulbasaur's 'master' (who must remain within 3 hexes of the
bulbasaur). The bulbasaur has a total of 6 seeds at any one time, and can
replenish its stock at a rate of 1 seed a day.

Bulbasaurs are vulnerable to fire, taking an extra point of damage per die
inflicted, but resistant to blunt weapons, attacks from earth and water
elementals and water/cold attacks (resisting an extra point per die
inflicted)

Ivysaur
ST 10         HS/A 3
DX 13        MA 6
IQ 7
Bulbasaurs evolve into Ivysaurs, larger and bulkier at 13kg and 99cm long.
Ivysaurs are no longer able to stand on their hind legs, and their bulbs
have now opened to reveal a large pinkish bud.
They attack with a bite for 1 die damage if pressed, but their main weapons
are ranged ones. An ivysaur can fire a volley of razor leaves (1-2 damage
each, treat as sha-ken, with a total of 18 leaves - the leaves get
replenished at a rate of 1 a day), use its two vine whips (treat as whips),
or emit a poison gas cloud from its flower bud.

Venusaur
ST 25         HS/A 4
DX 12        MA 6
IQ 7
AT maturity, the flower opens and the ivysaur becomes a venusaur, weighing
in at 100kg and 2m long - a 2-hex figure. It spends its spare time absorbing
solar energy from the sun in its flower, which it can fire as a beam at
enemies for 1-1 damage per fST expended (maximum of 4 fST; undead take
double damage, including insubstantial beings like ghosts and wraiths)
It can also release a cloud of sleep powder (treat as molotsil, 4/ST to
resist sleep on direct hit, 3/ST if 1 hex away)

I'll find some pics online
