ABILITY SCORES<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABILITY SCORES<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each character has six rolled ability scores that represent his character\u2019s most basic attributes. They are his raw talent and prowess. While a character rarely rolls a check using just an ability score, these scores, and the modifiers they create, affect nearly every aspect of a character\u2019s skills and abilities. Each ability score generally ranges from 3 to 18, although racial bonuses and penalties can alter this; an average ability score is 10. The latter two abilities Spirit and Comeliness are determined by the combined score of three of the previous six<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generating Ability Scores<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are several different methods used to generate ability scores. Each of these methods gives a different level of flexibility and randomness to character generation. Special modifiers are applied after the scores are generated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Standard: <\/strong>Roll 4d6, discard the lowest die result, and add the three remaining results together. Record this total and repeat the process until six numbers are generated. Assign these totals to your ability scores as you see fit. This method is less random than Classic and tends to create characters with above-average ability scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classic: <\/strong>Roll 3d6 and add the dice together. Record this total and repeat the process until you generate six numbers. Assign these results to your ability scores as you see fit. This method is quite random, and some characters will have clearly superior abilities. This randomness can be taken one step further. With the totals applied to specific ability scores in the order they are rolled. Characters generated using this method are difficult to fit to predetermined concepts, as their scores might not support given classes or personalities, and instead are best designed around their ability scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heroic: <\/strong>Roll 2d6 and add 6 to the sum of the dice. Record this total and repeat the process until six numbers are generated. Assign these totals to your ability scores as you see fit. This is less random than the Standard method and generates characters with mostly above-average scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dice Pool: <\/strong>Each character has a pool of 24d6 to assign to his statistics. Before the dice are rolled, the player selects the number of dice to roll for each score, with a minimum of 3d6 for each ability. Once the dice have been assigned, the player rolls each group and totals the result of the three highest dice. For more high-powered games, the GM should increase the total number of dice to 28. This method generates characters of a similar power to the Standard method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Purchase: <\/strong>Each character receives a number of points to spend on increasing his basic attributes. In this method, all attributes start at a base of 10. A character can increase an individual score by spending some of his points. Likewise, he can gain more points to spend on other scores by decreasing one or more of his ability scores. No score can be reduced below 7 or raised above 18 using this method. After all the points are spent, apply any racial modifiers the character might have. The number of points you have to spend using the purchase method depends on the type of campaign you are playing. The standard value for a character is 15 points. Average non-player characters (NPCs) are typically built using as few as 3 points. See Table 1\u20132 on the next page for several possible point values depending on the style of campaign. The purchase method emphasizes player choice and creates equally balanced characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luck of the Draw: <\/strong> What is needed for this is a deck of cards and a set of dice (multiple dice sets are suggested)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Drawing<\/em>: Well now that we know about the ability scores now, we need to know how to determine them. At creation all characters have all 10s to start. At either end the soul must gamble with the creator to determine your starting abilities. The Player shuffles the deck in front of the GM to avoid cheating then hands the deck back to the GM for inspection. After noting that the deck is random the player will draw 6 cards and lay them face down on the table. The player can decide to keep a 10 in any ability but once decided he cannot go back unless he draws the joker. If the player is unsatisfied with average he or she can decide to gamble with the creator for greater ability. The player then places his wager which can be as small as a Coin toss or as high as a d8 which is the dream of great power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the wager is laid the GM must ask \u201cYour Fate has been Judged! Do you Accept Fate?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the player says no then the bet is off and they have their 10. If they say yes, the card is turned over to reveal their fate. If the Card is red then they have won the wager and may roll their dice and add that number to their current score. If the card is Black then they lose the wager and must subtract that amount. If the player takes the highest of the bets either win or lose and rolls the maximum amount they are bid to roll again. If the maximum amount is rolled a second time, they are allowed to roll an extra d4 to add to their stat in the case of a win and the stat is reduced to 1 in the case of a loss. If the player has drawn the joker Chaos has decided to allow for a change to fate. The color of the card still determines loss or gain but the amount of the bet may be changed with the added penalties or bonuses it may give. If the player draws a joker when they decided not to gamble, they are given the chance to roll a die if they wish to add or subtract depending on the color of the joker involved. They are always allowed to keep their 10 if they chose not to gamble and those stats not gambled on are always held to the last.  This Choice is Utter Chaos and can result in a weak character as often as a strong one. So it is suggested when a player chooses this method to roll that the GM offer a bonus level, ability or Build Points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Example:<\/em>  Player wants to know their Body Save the save is (Strength 18 + Dexterity 10 + Endurance 14 = 42 [Using chart 1.1 42= +4 to this save] Thus the base for the save is +4, The player also has a Feature the grants them a +2, A Disability that grants them a -1 Thus the Total score before the roll is +5, this gets added to the result of the roll on a d20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Character Alignment<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laws Alignments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group arrives in a massive room. A large Casket with Gold coins spilling out stands on a raised dais in the middle of the room, columns line the room each with a nude statue. A massive Beast stands between the party and is ready to attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The OS Character will strike at the beast in the most logical way<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The OW Character will seek for a way to start a chain reaction of explosives on the Statues in the room to harm the beast with shrapnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The OI Character will also seek for a way to start a chain reaction but on the columns of the room. Hoping to bring the room down on it and then digging the treasure free afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FS will let the Beast move to attack them and spring an attack on them as an act of defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FW will let the Beast attack his teammates then attack it from behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Natural Alignment (Optional Rule)<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In all games characters have a Natural Alignment. This is the elements of Nature that they find a greater draw to them. The Natural Alignment can manifest itself in learning technique, empowering techniques, or powers, and even in granting special abilities at time. Each person has one of these Alignments. Some classes and abilities use this alignment to empower the players but the following is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Natural Alignments<\/td><\/tr>
Element<\/td>Strong Against<\/td>Weak Against<\/td>Combinable With<\/td><\/tr>
Fire<\/td>Ice<\/td>Water<\/td>Metal, Wind<\/td><\/tr>

Ice<\/td>Wind<\/td>Poison<\/td>Water, Wind<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

(Optional Rule, Resistance) When the player chooses their alignment, they gain a +2 Resistance of that element and +4 resistances of the element that they are strong against, and the player gains takes double damage from natural elements that your type is weak to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In some classes like Barbarian, and all magic classes that make Elemental magic a type they can learn. The players attacks unless otherwise stated are based on the players Natural Alignment. Additionally, if two or more players make a combination attack with the same or Combinable elements, they do greater damage with the attack. If the player wants to counter spell or attack a use of one element, a strong type will always win whereas neither strong nor weak attack depend on the casters Spirit Save. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holy to Tainted Alignments<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A third alignment for those that use holy based attacks or spells that they gain from higher power (I.E. \u2013 Clerics in traditional terms). These players gain a Second alignment. That of being along the more traditional lines of Good and Evil. These alignments are\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holy \u2013 Magic used to improve and aid the living
Neutral \u2013 Has no opinion can use powers of both holy and Tainted
Tainted \u2013 Magic used to corrupt and destroy
 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, the Lawful alignments (See Above). If a player falls out of this alignment from the ones granting them power, their power is sealed till an amendment or new connection is made to regain their magical power.  We will go into these more in the Building Magic part of the rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optional Rule<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God and their alignment<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While its not required, to build a larger world one key element is gods people look to follow. From just flavor text to all powerful beings that watch over the players its up to the GM on what to use. And which gods to go with. But we here at Green Lightning have some pre made gods for you, based on the alignment that they follow stronger. Along with the domain of magic they offer their followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
