Character Creation

The rules.This game uses D10’s. Take the Skill you want to roll. Add that to the Stat that goes with it. Roll that many dice. Of the dice you rolled take a number equal to the Stat. So if you have a 2 skill and a 2 Stat you roll 4 dice and keep the highest 2. Whenever you roll a ten, you roll it again. Add whatever new number you rolled to the ten. Do this until you stop rolling tens.

The rings are Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Essence

Four of the rings have Stats that are associated with them. Fire has Intelligence and Agility. Water has Perception and Strength. Air has Charisma and Reflexes. And Earth has Willpower and Stamina. Essence has no Stat attached and is handled differently than the rest. Both Rings and Stats have a numerical value. Stats can have a value of 1-10, and rings are equal to the lowest Stat associated with it. So if you have an Agility of 8 and an Intelligence of 2, your Fire ring is equal to 2. Your class level is primarily based on your Rings.

What do the Stats do you ask? Very well I’ll tell you.

Intelligence--how smart you are. Skills Lore, and anything mental.

Agility--How precise you are. Skills most combat and physical skills

Perception--your ability to see. Skills investigate is the main one.

Strength--how strong you are. Damage is based on this and the weapon you use

Charisma--how good looking, nice, forceful presence, smooth talking. Skills many of the social skills are based on this

Reflexes--how fast and defensive you are. Any form of defense is based on this, as well as initiative.

Willpower--how tough you are to crack. Not many skills, but used against many spells and social skills

Stamina--how long you can hold out. Not many skills for this, but used to stop the effects of poison, or exhaustion.

Fame is how well you are known in the world. Characters with high fame are easily recognized and can use their fame to sway people. Use of disguises can temporarily change your fame rank. Fame start at rank 1. Sometimes it is best not to be known.

There are many classes further down the page. Pick one, each gives you a bonus to one of your Stats. Each one also gives you a group of skills, each at rank 1. Most classes have a group of five techniques that your character can use. At character creation you have access to the Rank 1 technique. As you gain Experience, you will get access to the rest.

So you want to be a wizard? You pain in the ass. Writing down spells will take me a bit. PM figgin if you’re interested. If not, I’m not going to spend the time doing it.

Step three: Bonus Points 25.

Increase a Stat 8 points

Increase Essence 12 points

Increase Skill 1 point

Increase Fame 5 points

You can also gain advantages and get disadvantages at this point. Disadvantages add to the amount of Bonus points you have, while advantages cost points.  You can only get 10 points of disadvantages.  And you can only raise Skills and Stats up to rank 3 at Character Generation.

Step four: Determining wounds

Multiple your Earth rank by 2. You have 8 boxes to fill with that number. These boxes are called wound levels, and they are 0, -1, -2, -3, -4, Down, Out, Dead. Each negative effects how well you can do physical and at time mental skills. You roll less dice based on the negative that is associated with each wound level. When you take damage past dead, guess what, you’re dead.

Step five: Determining TN and initiative.

Your TN is equal to your Reflexes x5. If you wear armor there are two basic types Light (+5 to TN) and Heavy (+10 to TN) Heavy Armor also gives you -5 to all physical skills. Your initiative is a D10 + your reflexes.

Step six: Outfit

I don’t really care what you have. Just take a look at the weapon and armor section below and pick what you want. Other items, just ask and maybe I’ll let you have them.

Step seven: Determining Class Level

Find the sum of all your Rings. Multiply that number by ten. Add up all your skills. Add these two number up and consult the following chart.

Rank 1 0-150

Rank 2 151-175

Rank 3 176-200

Rank 4 201-225

Rank 5 226-up

You can really put the liquor away. This can be due to a naturally high constitution, or just a lot of experience. No matter how much you have to drink, liquor has no effect on you.

You can never get lost. You always know which way is north. There are places that are so magical that even you can be misled. Be careful.

You are aligned to one element, gaining a bonus to using that element and a detriment to use another. Pick an element and it’s opposite. Fire/Water. Earth/Air. You get +5 to cast spells with that element, and TN’s for people to cast spells on you are increased by 5. However, you get a –5 to cast spells from the opposite element, and your TN is 5 less against that element.

You have friends with similar views. Characters can take this advantage as many times as they wish. Informants get you information, but only at the right price. Minor Allies can get you a little money, food, shelter, and anything cheap and legal. Major Allies can get you hard to find items, illegal items, or do things such as getting an audience with the king. Each Ally should be created from the beginning, not all Allies have the same personality or can obtain the same things.

You can use both hands without penalty. Characters without this advantage get –10 to their actions.

You have information on someone. Because of this information, you have sway over this person’s actions. Keep in mind, no one likes to be blackmailed.

You are unassuming with average build and features. You do not stick out in a crowd. People tend to not notice you in a crowd, or remember you if they did. The advantage of this is that you get + 10 on any attempt to hide in a crowd or to disguise yourself. (Note: this does not help you to disguise yourself as someone else, or to hide in shadows) However, this Advantage also makes it difficult to gain Fame and recognition. People, even your own friends, tend to over look you. (Note: You can not take this and Benton’s Blessing, or any other looks and personality related advantage or disadvantage)

You are a descendant of an ancient race of elementals. Because of this you are rendered resistant to cold or heat. You are unaffected by weather related effects due to extreme cold or heat. You can live in the worst desert or the coldest mountain comfortably. This still means you must have water and food though. Your TN against Fire and Ice Spells is always at a +10

You have been honored in some way. Awards, Medals, Ribbons, Titles, or some other form of recognition was given to you for something you’ve done. You gain 10 points of Fame. You may not take the Scoundrel or Bland Advantages.

It isn’t easy to trick you. Any attempt to befuddle, confuse, or lie to you get a + 10 to it’s TN.

You are a professional soldier. Regardless of who you work for (i.e. royal guards, town militia, or the military) your livelihood is based on the army and your fellow soldiers. You are always well equipped. You need not worry about food or shelter. But you are required to be ready to fight for your country at a moments notice. This advantage point cost depends on your rank in the army.

Damn you’re sexy! You gain 3 dice to roll not keep on any attempt to seduce or tempt someone to do something for you.

You have knowledge that should be kept from the world. The more point you put into this Advantage the more important or deadly the information is. It could be a secret or an ancient relic of mass destruction. For every point you put into this Advantage you also gain ranks in Lore on your secret.

You are destined for greatness. The GM will decide what you are destined for. Until you achieve your destined goal, once a game you can’t be killed. Taking Hit Points that would kill you sends you to Out instead.

You were born with supernatural abilities. You can pick one of the following: Animal Speech, Empathy, Danger Sense, Precognition, or Psychometry. Animal Speech allows you to hear the thought of natural beasts and for them to have a better sense of your thoughts. This does not give you command over beasts, nor does it mean that all animals are smart enough to have an intelligent conversation. Empathy allows you feel the emotions of others. You can tell if they are sad or happy. It is possible for someone to master this talent and sense if someone is lying to them or not. Danger Sense is a form of Precognition that gives you the ability to never be surprised. Precognition allows you to gain knowledge of events that have yet to happen. They can be as clear or vague as the GM wishes. Psychometry is the ability to feel the emotions of people on the items they own. You may feel the hated on a bloodied knife or the love on a wedding dress.

You also get an additional die to roll on any social situation with people of your own faith. You get three meals a day, all of your basic needs are taken care of, and 30 Potch per month.

You have a talent that someone likes. Perhaps you’re an artist, playwright, exceptional swordsmen, or just really likeable. Someone likes you so much they give you money, so that you can support yourself. Patrons are different from Allies in that they don’t really care about you.
