Sentinel Comics RPG Core Rulebook

White Bot Cell
Description
This is a large combat robot programmed to attack
all targets without authorization to be in the lab. It’s
armed with lasers and electroshock batons.
Ability
Natural Killer Cell: +1 to Attack actions.
Lieutenant
Tactics
White Bot Cells are created to take down the
biggest foes to the system, always prioritizing the
strongest or healthiest heroes.
Seeker Process
Lieutenant
Description
A complex computer program that tracks the
heroes and directs the security system against
them. Much like Inhibitor Processes, it directs the
security system’s automated lasers, knockout gas,
sonic weapons, electroshock weapons, etc. Use the
Seeker Process’s die to direct these actions.
Ability
Software (Inherent): As a computer program, the
seeker process is only susceptible to computerbased
technological attacks. Physical attacks against
it are ineffective.
Tactics
The Seeker Process wants to reduce the number
of threats as quickly as possible, so it prefers to go
after weak hero targets it thinks it can take down.
Conclusion
One way or another, the heroes have delved
deep into this facility. They may have made it to
the genetics computer and gotten the information
about Biomancer and Argaeus Tower… or they
might have run out of time. Either way, they’re
learned something. Hopefully, they’ve done so
without revealing their location…
If the Scene Tracker Reaches the End
If the scene tracker gets to the end before the
heroes can search the computer in Basement Five,
a pleasant computerized voice announces over the
public address system: “Warning. Security threat is
critical. Emergency destruction of computer
records commencing… Destruction of computer
records complete. Have a nice day.” All records
of clones are irretrievably deleted, and a warning
signal has been sent to Biomancer. He knows the
heroes were here, and he will be ready when they
come after him.
All is not lost, however — the heroes can still
attempt to access a computer system somewhere,
and when they do, the only records left in any
laboratory computer indicate that 12 hours ago,
an aircraft left the island headed for the city of
Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. The Argaeus
Tower was identified as its destination. That’s the
trail the heroes should follow.
Aftermath
Regardless of whether the heroes have all
the answers they were looking for, they know
Biomancer is in Dubai, and that is the next step.
Don’t let lack of transportation be an obstacle;
whatever aircraft the heroes have, one way or
another, it has the fuel to make it that far and
some means — either by vertical take-off/landing
system or rope ladders or something else — to
get the heroes onto the roof of the skyscraper.
Or perhaps the heroes can commandeer another
aircraft from the landing strip here on the island.
Suggested Montage Elements
If you want to have a montage scene before the
heroes chase Biomancer to his lair, see if they
have anything they want to wrap up here first.
To connect the previous and the following action
scenes, use a social scene with montage elements
to get the heroes up to speed on what they're
chasing, where it's going, who is in charge here
(if they haven't already figured it out), and any
other heroic activities they need to do, like saving
innocents from danger!
If heroes are at a loss for how best to prepare,
below are some suggestions you could give them.
However, also encourage them to develop their
own plans for how to get ready for the next step
of their adventure.
• Use the infirmary to patch up injured heroes
• Do some research on Biomancer’s lair, the
Argaeus Tower
• Research Biomancer himself, and get as many
details as possible about what he was up to
here at this lab
• Warn Megalopolis city authorities, and/or
some other authority, about the possibility of
more clones
