CS Guide: Loadouts

The following article breaks down weapons that can be listed in the Weapons Load Out on a Character Sheet. For more detailed information on weapons in the brotherhood, check out the Weapons codex.

Revisions are subject to change upon the introduction of the upcoming Possessions system coming Soon(TM) to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.

Standard Weapons

The following is a collection of pre-approved weapons that can be listed on a Character Sheet’s Weapon Load Out section. Any missing weapons from this list can be added as long as they have some established grounding in the Star Wars Expanded universe (flexibility extends from Canon to Legends).

• Cosmetic details of how a weapon is worn is permitted, such as “boot-sheath knife”, “retractable wrist blade”, or “shoulder holsters”.

• Restricted materials include: phrik, cortosis, mandalorian iron, or anything treated with Sith Alchemy.

Poisons & Weapons

Members may add poisoned weapons to their Character Sheets, so long as they specify which poison type they are taking advantage of. In the ACC, Poisons have certain restrictions, but in Fiction, Run-On, Contracts, or other writing forms, you are not restricted to what is listed on your Character Sheet.

Poison Types

Poisons and Toxins are broken down into the following types: I, II, III, IV. Members are free to creatively name the specific kinds of Poison or Toxins (relative to the Star Wars universe: eg. "Vornskr-Tail or Rancor-Shade") but would use the category type for the purpose of declaring weapons used.

• TYPE I - Hallucinogens: Poisons that affect the victim’s senses. Hallucinogens cause the victim to hear/smell/see things that aren’t there or otherwise distort a character’s perception.

• TYPE II - Debilitating: Poisons that interfere with the body’s motor functions. Generally these interfere with muscle and nerves, with effects most severe in the local area of the wound.

• TYPE III - Neurotoxins: Poisons which primarily cause pain by altering neural receptors in the brain.

• TYPE IV - Herbicide - Poisons that specifically target and counteract photosynthesis and aim to cripple species that have chlorophyll instead of a regular blood stream.

Poison & The ACC

Members may make use of poisons in the ACC, but must declare what specific poison-types they are bringing to the fight so that it is clearly stated in the Match Details. The following bullet points detail how poisons are treated in the ACC.

• Members must have the Poison Weapons Feat to use poisons in the ACC. This is done for mechanical and balancing reasons for the purpose of the ACC.

• Poison Weapons in the ACC covers the coating of a given weapon for a single type of Poison. To effectively use a poisoned weapon in the ACC, a member must have the "Poison Weapons" Feat.

• A poisoned weapon may only be coated with one type of poison.

• A member may utilize poison in the form of a vial or contact method, but must specify that they have the poison with them in the match's weapon details. Contact poison locations should be clearly indicated in the details as well, such as the lips or the gloves.

• Members who carry a poison, or use poisoned weapons are assumed to have both the poison and its antidote at their disposal.

• For a poison to affect an opponent, the weapon must make contact with the bloodstream. Simply holding a poisoned weapon in your hand will not have an effect, but giving yourself a small cut with the weapon would.

• Different species react to poisons differently. If a member does not have a bloodstream, they are not going to suffer effects from that type of poison. These specifications can be found on each Species DJB-Wiki entry.

• A member must define the poison type or a specific poison in Match Details of the challenge.

• A member with a high *Medecine* or *Survival* skill may be able to utilize the environment to create a partial antidote to a poison they are afflicted with. This would require time and concentration, however, which tends to break up the realistic pacing of an ACC Battle and could work against your score. The venue would also have to provide appropriate natural or chemical resources.

• Similarly, Force **Healing** will allow a Force User to treat the effects of poison, assuming they have time to concentrate on the specific task, which will often be difficult during combat.

• Higher levels of **Control Self** will allow a Force User to alter their bodies to better cope with the effects of a poison, but would not actually treat the actual symptoms of the poison.

• Poisons do not act immediately, they take time to incapacitate or kill, depending on the volume applied/injected and method of doing so. The amount on a coated blade would be less than a dart or other projectile designed to inject the poison on impact like the Kamino Saberdart.

Poison Related Feats

"La Résistance" - Allows the character’s body to naturally resist the effects of toxins and poisons introduced into the bloodstream through conditioning. They can do this without **Control Self**, which allows them to fight through the effects of poisons applied in the ACC.

"Poison Weapons" - Allows a character to use poisoned weapons effectively without accidentally poisoning themselves in the process.

Inquisitorius Stiletto

Skill Type: Bladed Weapons

An accessory weapon that is a variation of the Molecular Stiletto appearing to be nothing more than a typical, slender dagger. Upon thumbing a small activator stub on the hilt, however, a sharp and nearly invisible monomolecular blade springs from the tip. This makes the stiletto perfect for penetrating armor in weak points and is deadly as a stabbing weapon in its own right. The blade itself is incredibly brittle, however, and will buckle under impact against even a basic vibroblade. Perfect for a quick and quiet kill, but not as useful in a fight.
