  • Protoculture Optics:

Range: 2000ft.
Can see Protoculture through the hide of mecha, spacecraft, walls, and up to 100ft underground. Can ONLY see active Protoculture traces. Can recognize Protoculture signatures as well, allowing the Invid to identify the specific weapon or vehicle.

  • Sense other Invid:

Range: 30 Miles
Can sense the presence of other Invid of as few as one and knows when they are coming towards her. This ability triggers automatically whenever Invid are present.

  • Teleportation via Energy Conversion:

NOTE: Allow this power as necessary, NOT all Invid have, or should have this ability.

Range: Short Range: 30,000 miles +1000 per level
Cast time: Two attacks.
May transport two human sized beings or their equivalent mass. May carry one additional human sized being or equivalent mass every other level.
Range: Long Range: 400,000 miles +2000 per level
Cast time: Dependant on distance travelled. Approaches the speed of light the further the distance travelled.
May carry one person with her, plus one every 3 levels.
The Invid must rest after either teleporting or travelling long distances. The Invid will need to sit down and rest for 5 minutes after each Short Range Teleport with -1 Attack and combat bonuses and Spd. reduced by half during that time. The Invid will need to sit down and rest for 20 minutes after Long Range travel with -1 Attack and combat bonuses and Spd. Reduced by half during the rest period.
Any passengers may act normally after teleportation/travel, and would be advised to protect the Invid during his/her rest.

  • Chances of a Successful Teleport:
    • Teleporting to a familiar location, or a destination visible from one’s starting point. (Location may be seen thru an optical enhancing device.): 99%
    • A place visited only a few times before (2-6 times): 85%
    • A place seen in a picture (the picture is being looked at during the moment of teleportation.): 80%
    • A place never visited before, but described in great detail: 58%
    • A place never visited before and known only by name or from a brief description: 20%

    • 1-40% Appears in wrong place. No idea of present location; 3D6x100 miles off course.
    • 41-75% Appears in wrong place. No idea of present location; 1D6x100 miles off course.
    • 76-98% Teleport several feet above ground; everybody falls, suffering 4D6 damage.
    • 99-100% Teleport into an object.
  • Telepathic Communication:

Invid may communicate with the Regess regardless of her location in the universe. Invid may communicate with lower caste Invid within 3,000 miles. While they may listen, they are under no obligation to obey, and any order by the Regess automatically supersedes that of the Invid. To use telepathy the Invid must concentrate for 15 seconds and focus on the transmission. The Invid may also receive any transmission sent by the Regess or Hive Brain within her vicinity but cannot hear the narrow band communications of lower caste Invid.

  • Clothing:

The Invid may conjure a familiar outfit (must have been worn at least once) per level. The Invid’s skinsuit is considered the characters default outfit and does not count. The outfit may not be armor, or offer any protective qualities.

Range: 100ft per level.
Damage/I.S.P.: 1D6 per every 6 I.S.P.

I.S.P. 20
This ability allows the Invid to cause physical matter to disappear and reappear elsewhere. The Invid can teleport one pound per level of experience a distance of 50ft per level of experience. This is one way teleportation, once sent, the object cannot be called back.

  • Teleporting small object into one own bags, pockets etc is an automatic success.
  • Teleporting the object in the pocket bag or someone in line of sight has an 80% success rate.
  • Teleporting the object to anywhere within range and line of sight has an 88% success rate.
  • Teleporting the object to a familiar place has an 88% success rate.
  • Teleporting the object to an unfamiliar place has a 60% success rate.
  • Teleporting the object to a completely unknown place has a 45% success rate.

  • Clairvoyance:

Range: Self
Duration: 6D6 Melee’s
I.S.P.: 4
Base Skill: 58% +2% per level of experience.

Duration: 5 minutes per level of experience
MDC of field: 30 per level of experience.
I.S.P.: 30
Reminiscent of the force field used by the Invid’ to protect their Hives, the evolved Invid can focus his/her mental energy to project a temporary barrier.

The Invid may only create one barrier at any one time.

  • Invid may only select this power after attaining 7th level.

Range: Self
Duration: 2 minutes per level of experience
