About the game
The Manipulator is Character Pack 3 for Five Parsecs From Home and introduces a new character type to your campaigns. The tentacled Manipulators offer a character with interesting quirks in combat and the potential to earn additional Story Points, but vulnerable to those close combat brutes that fringe space tends to be filled with. This new character type can be fitted into any campaign, whether you are starting out or already engaged. —description from the designer
