Dorio Yo!
Salutations Chooms!
One of my personal fav’s is Dorio. Her relationship with Maine is one of my favorite elements of the Netflix series, and she’s a tough-as-nails fighter ta’ boot.
She’s a Merc like the rest of the crew and a specialist, but what sets her apart is your low 15€$ hiring cost. She’s a highly effective melee fighter at that price, especially when protecting one of your Netrunners. Her low cost also makes her an efficient model to invest with Gear cards.
Stat’s wise, Dorio has two action tokens, one GREEN and one YELLOW. This is a fairly average number of actions, but having a GREEN in the mix helps with tricky actions opposed by the Obstacle die, and it allows her to overpower weaker opponents quickly.
She’s no slouch with a melee 2 either, and a little cybergear can ramp that up pretty quickly. I personally give her Microrotors whenever I can (they give her a +1 melee and Pierce 1 to basic melee attacks). Once I’m up at 5 Street Credit, I also tack on Gorilla Arms.
Dorio is also the most skilled medic in the group, with a +2 Medical skill. If you’re going to have anyone haul around healing Gear, she’s also a good choice. She’s also got a +1 Influence, but that’s for talking her way through objectives that need it.
Lastly, let’s talk about her special ability. This is where she really shines. Dorio has the Pugilist ability, which makes all Melee attacks against her Dangerous. So anyone who rolls a fumble while attacking her immediately suffers a wound. Your rival will not want to roll RED dice against Dorio!
That’s all there is for now. I think next time I need to talk about someone from Arasaka… hmm… but who… who…
