Super Saiyans

"The already darkened skies of the dying Planet grew darker as the Saiyan's pain was brought forth to the outside. The air around him sparked with electromagnetic discharges from his body as his power level increased due to the anger he felt for the loss of 2 of his closest friends, one of them being his best friend. His hair spiked straight upward and changed into a golden color similar to that of an Angel, and his aura grew deadly. It too changed into Angellic Gold. With a final explosion of power and cry of pain, he had transformed into none other than the creature spoken of in legends: The Super Saiyan. He eyed the alien murderer with a deadly gaze, then moved in to attack with the speed and force that the Gods themselves would envy."

During times of extreme pressure, or when a great injustice has been done against the Saiyan, their level of power will increase exponentially. During rare occurrences, a Saiyan may transform into a Super Saiyan. These rules for Super Saiyan are meant for campaigns that are sub-epic, and may be tweaked for Epic Campaigns as the DM sees fit. The rulings below are for Super Saiyan 1, Super Saiyan 2, and Super Saiyan 3.

Super Saiyan 1:

Bonuses:

  • Base Movement Speed: x2
  • Damage Reduction: The Saiyan gains Damage Reduction against all attacks (Stackable with any other Damage Reduction Bonuses) equal to their Effective Character Level.
  • Spell Resistance: The Saiyan gains Spell Resistance (stackable with any other Spell Resistance bonuses) equal to their Effective Character Level.

Attribute Bonuses:

  • Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution each increase by an amount equal to the Class Level (For a max of +20 at Level 20).
  • Wisdom, Intelligence, and Charisma each increase by an amount equal to 1 point every 2 Class Levels (for a max of +10 at Level 20).
  • The Saiyan gains Max Hit Dice for their class.

Damage Bonuses

  • Unarmed Physical damage increases by 1 die level. Armed damage increases according to the new Temp. STR Mod.
  • Energy/Spell/Psionic Damage increases by an additional +1 per die every 4 Class Levels (For a max of +5 at level 20). Saving throws against the Saiyan's attacks of this nature increase accordingly with the attribute increases.

Activating Super Saiyan Stage 1

  • In order to achieve Super Saiyan for the first time, a great injustice must be done (Such as Goku seeing his best friend Krillin being killed by the tyrant Frieza on the Planet Namek). Or, they must have witnessed another Saiyan transform into a Super Saiyan.
  • Activating Super Saiyan for the first time takes 3 full rounds to achieve. Damage received by attacks of opportunity or otherwise do not break the Sayian from gathering his energy to transform. Each subsequent activation of Super Saiyan requires 1 full round.
  • Attacks against the transforming Saiyan do not break their concentration on gathering their energy unless the attack drops their HP to 0 or less.
  • While powering up to Super Saiyan, anyone in adjacent spaces are knocked back 5 feet and take 2 points of subdual energy damage (Spell Resistance applies) due to the amount of energy being released by the Saiyan. Players or NPC's that are 15 feet away take 1 point of subdual energy damage (Spell resistance applies) per round, and that damage increases by 1 point for every 5 feet closer they are to the transforming Saiyan.
  • Super Saiyan Stage 1 lasts for the amount of rounds equal to the Effective Character Level. When the time ends, the Saiyan takes 5 points of subdual damage and takes a -2 penalty to all Attributes, AC, and Attack Rolls, Damage rolls, and 1/2 Base Movement Speed for 1d4 rounds due to fatigue and sudden energy loss. To feel these effects by 1/2, a fortitude save of DC 14+ECL is required. A fortitude Save of DC17+ECL is required to have no negative effects whatsoever. To transform back to normal early, a concentration check of DC 17+ is required, followed by the saves mentioned beforehand from it deactivating normally. Subdual damage that the Saiyan receives during this transformation back to normal goes away at the rate of 1 point per hour, or fully disappears after an amount of restful sleep.

Super Saiyan 2:

"As he watched his friends fall one by one at the hands of the cynical Cell, Gohan's cries for the madness to cease fell on deaf ears. Finally, after Android 16's head was flung at his feet, he realized what he must do. The frightful powers he held inside, that his father Goku had known existed since he was a child, were to be released at last. Gohan cried out in anguish against the smug Cell and gathered his energy, letting it explode outward, and surpass that of any other Saiyan, including Goku. When all was done, the newly restored teenager looked upon Cell with a glare that would kill any normal man where he stood. Then he made his move..."

Prerequisites:

  • Class Level 7 or higher
  • Must be in Super Saiyan 1 Form and have the following Attribute Scores:
  • STR 21+
  • CON 21+
  • DEX 20+

Bonuses (From Super Saiyan 1)

  • Base Movement Speed x2.5 (From Normal)
  • STR, DEX, and CON each increase by an additional 1 point for each Class Level (for a max of +40 total at Lv 20)
  • WIS, INT, and CHA each increase by an additional 1 point for every 2 Class Levels (For a max of +20 total at Lv 20)

Defensive Bonuses (From Super Saiyan 1)

  • Gains a Natural Armor Bonus of +1 for every Class Level. (For a max of +20 at Lv 20)
  • Gains additional Damage Reduction against all attacks equal to their Effective Character Level (From normal, this is 2 points of DR/ECL)
  • Gains additional Spell Resistance equal to their ECL (From normal, this is 2 points of SR/ECL)
  • Gains Max HD for their class. (This is exactly the same as the bonus from Super Saiyan 1)

Offensive Bonuses (From Super Saiyan 1)

  • Unarmed Physical Damage increases by an additional die level (For a total of 2 die levels)
  • All Energy attacks (Ki/Magic/Psionic) increases by an additional +1 per die every 4 class levels. (For a max of +10 at Lv 20)

How to Activate Super Saiyan 2:

  • Must already be in Super Saiyan 1 form.
  • In order to achieve Super Saiyan 2 for the first time, the Saiyan must have undergone some sort of extreme emotional pressure while in Super Saiyan 1 form (Such as Gohan witnessing his friends being pummeled into pulp by the Cell Jrs. in the Cell Games).
  • Activating Super Saiyan 2 for the first time requires 3 full rounds. Each subsequent activation of Super Saiyan 2 takes only 1 full round.
  • Super Saiyan 2 lasts for the amount of rounds equal to the character's Effective Character Level, regardless of how many rounds were left until Super Saiyan 1 ran out.
  • While powering up to Super Saiyan 2, everyone in an adjacent space to the Saiyan is knocked back 10 feet, and takes 5 points of magical subdual damage (Damage Reduction/magic applies like normal). All characters or enemies within 20 feet receive 2 points of subdual magical damage per round, and that damage increases by 2 for every 5 feet closer to the transforming Saiyan.
  • Attacks against the transforming Saiyan do not break their concentration on transforming, unless the attack drops their HP to 0 or less.
  • When Super Saiyan 2 runs out, the Saiyan is severely drained. A Fortitude save of DC 15+ECL is required (after transforming back to normal) to prevent from being knocked prone for 1d4 rounds. Saiyans that revert back to normal from Super Saiyan 2 receive 10 points of subdual damage, suffer a penalty of -3 to all Attributes, attack rolls, and AC, as well as 1/2 their base movement speed for 1d6 rounds. To feel these effects by 1/2 (rounded up), an additional Fortitude save of DC 15+ECL is required. To negate these effects, the Fortitude save must meet a DC of 17+ECL. To transform back early, a concentration check of DC17+ECL is required, then after reverting to normal, the required Fortitude saves must be rolled. Subdual damage the Saiyan receives from this disappears at the rate of 1 point per hour, or it will disappear completely after an amount of restful sleep.

  • To Activate Super Saiyan 3 for the first time requires 3 full rounds. Each subsequent activation of Super Saiyan 3 only requires 1 full round.
  • Attacks against the transforming Saiyan do not break their concentration to gather their energy unless the attack drops their HP to 0 or less.
  • While powering up to Super Saiyan 3, all characters/enemies within 10 feet are knocked back 30 feet and receive 8 points of energy subdual damage (Damage Reduction/Magic applies normally). Enemies within 35 feet of the Saiyan receive 3 points of subdual energy damage and the damage increases by 3 points for every 5 feet closer to the transforming Saiyan.
  • Super Saiyan 3 lasts for the number of rounds equal to the ECL, regardless of the amount of active rounds Super Saiyan 2 had remaining.
  • When Super Saiyan 3 runs out, the Saiyan must make a Fortitude save of DC 17+ECL to prevent from being knocked prone for 1d6 rounds. Due to the extreme drain of energy, after reverting back to normal, the Saiyan takes massive penalties. -5 to all Attributes, AC, and Attack Rolls. Base Movement speed is also cut in half. To feel these effects by half (rounded up), a Fortitude save of DC 15+ECL is required. To negate these effects, the Fortitude save must meet or exceed a roll equal to 17+ECL. To transform back early, a Concentration check of DC17+ECL is required, then after reverting to normal, the required Fortitude saves must be rolled.
