Geth You are a Geth mobile platform, a humanoid construct inhabited by a community of around a hundred networked virtual intelligences that work in unison. You are incredibly durable, and can ignore many issues that organics would find deeply troubling. Your overall form is similar to that of a Quarian – they did create you in their own image, after all, but you are unique among your brethren in that you were designed specifically to interact with organics. Your cowled head houses a distinctive ‘flashlight’, and your body is made of a steel outer shell over synthetic muscle tissue. Residing behind the Perseus Veil in the original Quarian home systems, the Geth won their freedom from their creators in the Geth War. Little is known about their culture, but a small fraction of the Geth known as the ‘Heretics’ cause a lot of trouble for the organic races, and give the whole of the species a bad reputation. Geth names are impossible to pronounce in spoken conversation, and given names are irrelevant to most of them. The only names that individual Geth tend to have are more like titles that are awarded to them by their companions.

Mass Craft
• Lumbering: You suffer a –2 penalty with Reflex saves and become flanked any time two opponents are adjacent to you. • Natural Attack: You gain the Trample II natural attack. If you gain a natural attack from multiple sources, the attack’s grade becomes equal to the highest single grade +1 per additional benefit granting the same attack, to a maximum of V (e.g. Bite IV, Bite III and Bite I become Bite V). • Sterner Stuff: The keen quality of each attack made against you decreases by 4. • Thick Hide 2: You’re considered to be wearing partial armor that provides Damage Reduction 3. This DR does not stack with other armor (only the best protection applies). If you gain thick hide from multiple sources, your hide offers the highest single DR value +1 per additional hide benefit (e.g. thick hide 4, thick hide 3 and thick hide 1 offer DR 6).
