Meet The Classes: Disconnected

Today we continue our tour of the classes by looking at the disconnected. Where the augmented fail, they succeed.

Play Tester's Verdict
"I felt scrappy, like my wits, will and expertise were the only things letting me keep pace with my augmented counterparts."

The disconnected are the fierce underdogs of the Wireless Soul Transmission universe. Without augmentations their raw power is sharply curtailed, making them vulnerable in any direct combat amongst their super-human allies.
​
But this is also their strength. Every augmentation a character has is one more way the Whisper can get into their head, one more way it can trick them, delay them or outright control them. When the party flags under wireless attack it is the disconnected that steps up to save them, it is the disconnected alone that is beyond the Whisper’s electronic reach.

​Party Role
Disconnected are perfect for the player who likes to be depended on – no one is more trustworthy than the disconnected and, in times when the Whisper is loud, everyone will look to you to solve the problem. In combat a disconnected favours a guerrilla style, using machineguns or sniper rifles to provide fire support and ambushing attacks.

Example talent – I don’t think it saw us
Once per encounter, if you or an ally fail a stealth check, you may treat the roll as though it were successful, so long as the character who failed the roll remains stationary until the end of their next turn.
