Mummy
Imhotep is a classic Hollywood mummy, with some similarities to the 1999 mummy Imhotep and the shambling mummy Kharis. Imhotep’s attributes as a mummy include:
- Undead: Imhotep is undead, and considered to be completely
immune to effects that affect the living, diseases, aging, toxins, and
other similar effects. In addition, Imhotep has no need of food, drink,
or rest. Imhotep cannot be killed through killing attacks and cannot
normally be stunned through similar attacks. Imhotep is superhumanly
durable, hence his high Endurance and Strength scores. Imhotep states he
is immune to weapons of man, such as sharp weapons or gunfire, and is
considered to not take damage from such effects. Mystical effects still
do full damage.
- Immortality: Unless the Scroll of Thoth is destroyed, Imhotep will return and remain, possibly forever.
-
Regeneration and Recovery: Imhotep can regenerate and recovery
endurance ranks with Rm (30) ability, being able to regenerate limbs and
re-attach them as necessary. This power only becomes active if Imhotep
is able to drain the lifeforce of those who first awaken him and open
the book of the dead.
Master Magician and Priest
Imhotep is a master magician and former high priest and knows many
mystical abilities. Imhotep’s mastery of magic allows him to utilize
several effects, most notably the following:
- Necromancy: Imhotep can raise the dead, resurrecting
individuals who have long been dead (such as Anck-Su-Namun). Imhotep can
perform such rituals with Am (50) ability.
- Hypnotism*: Imhotep
can mesmerize individuals with Am (50) ability, allowing him to force
people to serve, completely dominate a person’s will to the point of
implanting suggestions, and even forcing people into a zombie-like
state. Imhotep can also remove memories with his hypnotic suggestion.
Imhotep seems to be able to only directly affect one individual at a
time, but may plant suggestions accordingly.
- Heart Stopping:
By expending Karma, Imhotep can force a target to make an Endurance FEAT
vs. Imhotep’s Psyche Rank. Should the figure fail, they immediately
begin the dying process. As a side-effect, no karma can be spent to help
with the Endurance FEATS. If a successful FEAT is made initially, the
target will not be targeted again – Their will is simply too strong for
Imhotep to try twice.
Contacts:
Imhotep has not immediate contacts, but can rely on contacts made through is guide of Ardeth Bey
Limitations:
Imhotep has several key limitations, which include:
- Secret ID: Imhotep utilizes his public ID of Ardeth Bey to hide
his activities and actions. As such, if it were publicly known either
who or what Ardeth Bey is, he would lose all of his contacts and
resources that were acquired.
- The Scroll of Thoth: Imhotep’s
powers and immortality comes through the Scroll of Thoth, and its
destruction would not just rob Imhotep of his powers but also destroy
the Mummy. Imhotep’s powers and lifeforce are tied directly to the
scroll.
- Obsession: Imhotep is obsessed with finding his lost
love and restoring her to live. Imhotep will use all of his powers and
abilities to recover her, and will stop at nothing.
- Unusual
Looks: Once restored Imhotep still maintains an oddly aged look, which
can be spotted as a sign of his unnaturalness. In such cases, Imhotep
suffers a -1CS to all social related FEATS should such apply.
