Pit Slaves

From EFWiki

[edit] Description

Pit Slaves are former slaves who were augmented with weapons for the purpose of pit fighting for the entertainment of the audience. They have either earned their freedom by sufficient successes or in some cases escaped (or been rescued) from the pit. Unfortunately, even after leaving the pit, life is no bed of roses for pit slaves and the Underhive is the only place that will take them. Many of them hire their services out to the underhive gangs, but some band together and form gangs consisting exclusively of pit slaves.

[edit] Traits

The most obvious trait of Pit Slaves is that most of them have had one of their arms removed and replaced with a close combat weapon. This means that there are a maximum of three Pit Slaves in a gang which can have ranged weapons more advanced than a pistol (And of the three, the Techno starts with a WS of 2, meaning that he does best with flamers and the Servitor can't learn meaning his BS can never excede 3). But Pit Slaves are all experienced combatants and armed with effective weapons meaning that the lack of effective ranged firepower may not be a problem.
