91-95 Robot (Machine, computers, cyborgs, androids or Golems.)

***** Monstrous 75
***** Unearthly 100
***** Shift X 150
***** = The scores that were modified for special reasons...
a. Roll the table for each of the abilities listed above.
Modify scores if hero is:
hi-tech wonder, increase Reason by one Rank (ex. Amazing +1= Monstrous)
mutant, increase Endurance by one Rank.
robot & its Reason rank is Feeble, Poor or Typical, increase its Reason
rank to good.
Step 3. Determine the hero's variable abilities.
Add the Rank #'s to get ....
Fig + Agi + Str + End Rank #'s = Health

(I will determine your Rescource Rank)
