TEXT: FATE: Apotheosis Drive X - Neon Genesis Cybertron 
   
  The Angel threat has been defeated in a surreal apotheostic haze.  Or so we thought. An 
  independent astronomy station saw it first.  A much, much bigger threat.  Titan Angels. 
   
  Draft 1.1  April 22, 2013 - Blue Tyson 
   
   
  SETTING 
   
  The near Evangelion future.  The humans have fought off the Angel threat.  Or so they thought. 
  Pragmatic reality intrudes on psychedelic reverie.  A not-quite finished project is scrambled into 
  action to try and stop the threat.  The only defense that can possibly work is a MegaTitan and 
  this weapon can only be piloted by a Titan. Three senior Titan pilots draw lots to fly the 
  prototype and Ayanami wins. 
   
  A cataclysmic conflict leads to a victory of a sort after a 17 second confrontation.  Along with the 
  loss of North Korea (which no-one ever noticed in anime anyway) and most of the MegaTitan. 
  A recovery team finds what is left of the pilot inside the scrap, in a coma, short a couple of limbs. 
  At the same time, some sort of backlash effect leaves the other two pilots curled into foetal 
  balls, gibbering about horrors from beyond space and time.  Nothing can bring them out of it, 
  and only an abundance of stuffed penguins seems to calm their ravings. 
   
  With their only hope of operating MegaTitans about as competent for combat as fluffy pet 
  rabbits the military and civilian heads agree that the time has come.  The authorisation of the 
  reactivation of a secret Antarctic base.

  ADVENTURING 
   
  The Titan Angels will keep coming.  Probably getting worse. The third MegaTitan is to be a 
  hybrid that requires one of the other Autobots [or Decepticons if that is how you fly] to pilot it, 
  along with a team of humans.  Eventually the Project wants them to be human only for obvious 
  
  reasons.  Any humans trying to operate the Green or Orange MegaTitans will be brainfried after 
  a few minutes.  As in out of Fate Points. 
   
  So player characters could be Autobots etc. or the team of humans working on the new 
  MegaTitan - pilots, scientists, engineers, etc.  It will require a crew of several to fly it.  One robot, 
  several small people. 
   
  Are the rumours about the God Machine true?  Is there another level of Titan?  How big is it? 
  How does it work?  Joining?  A three level Matrioshka?  Other? 
   
   
  SCALE 
   
  There are three :- 
   
  Human 
  Titan/Autobot/Decepticon 
  MegaTitan/Titan Angel

  Physique is split compared to Core, into a Strength component and an Endurance component, 
  the latter of which should be used for the Stress track.  Reason is native intelligence.

  Popularity is a measure of charisma, reputation and public influence. If you like, bad people can 
  have a negative popularity ladder equivalent.  Supervillains, mass murderers, ruthless thugs in 
  The Ball, etc.
