## Creating a Character

A basic character consists of a Race, Class, and Birthsign. Race provides your base Attribute scores, some starting Skill bonuses, and one or more Racial Abilities.

Your Class will give your character focus and improve your Skills in what you pick.

Your Birthsign gives another bonus to your character, and range from simple boosts to choices that will change how you play a character massively.

### Class

The first part of your class is your Specialization. This is chosen from Combat, Magic, and Stealth. For all Skills within your Specialization, your starting value is increased by one.

  • Combat: Athletics, Axe, Block, Blunt Weapon, Crafting, Hand-to-hand, Heavy Armor, Long Blade, Spear, Throwing

  • Stealth: Acrobatics, Marksman, Sneak, Short Blade, Light Armor, Perception, Deception, Streetwise, Speechcraft, Security, Survival

  • Magic: Unarmored, Conjuration, Illusion, Lore, Alchemy, Enchant, Mysticism, Alteration, Destruction, Restoration

Next, your Favored Attribute. Pick one Favored Attribute, for this your starting value is increased by 2.

Finally, your Major Skills. Pick 4 Major Skills, for these your starting value is increased by 5.

## Magic

Types of Magic

Abilities are passive spell effects, they are always active.

Greater Powers are only able to be used once per day, always succeed, and cost no Magicka.

Lesser Powers can be used as often as you want, always succeed, and may or may not cost Magicka.

Spells are the most common and standard spell, which are covered in the following section.

Rituals are a class of magic with casting times longer than one action.

Runes, Ward ← Enchant

Curses?

### Spells

Casting a spell

Any given spell has a Spell Difficulty, which you must overcome to successfully cast. The Spell Difficulty is a base of 20, plus double the Spell Cost.

When casting a spell, roll a d20 and add your Spell Skill doubled plus your Willpower on 4. If you meet or exceed the Spell Difficulty, the spell cast is successful. On a failed cast, the Magicka is still expended.

For example, a wizard with a Destruction skill of 9 and a Willpower of 10 wants to cast a spell that costs 5 Magicka. The Spell Difficulty is then 20 + 5 * 2 → DC 30, and their Spell Cast Modifier for Destruction is 9 * 2 + 10/4 → +20; the wizard rolls a d20 and gets a 7, 7+20 is less than the required DC 30, so the spell fails.

Determining Spell Cost

The Spell Cost is the Magicka required to cast a spell. To calculate, multiply the Magnitude and Duration, then add in the Area, then multiply by the Spell Effect's Base Cost, finally divide by 60 for Self and Touch spells, 48 for Target spells. Round the Spell Cost up

Acquiring New Spells

You can learn new spells in a variety of ways. You might find a spellbook that can teach you a spell, or learn a spell from an NPC - either through barter or other means. Characters can take an hour to teach another a spell, given the teacher has an Intelligence of 15 or higher or has a 15 or higher in the school of the spell being taught. Spells can also be created, either for a fee from NPCs or through a perk.

When creating spells, you must know a spell with the effect you want to use to be able to create a spell with that effect, whether you are paying an NPC or creating a spell yourself. The standard fee for spellmaking is 100 times its Magicka point cost.

Ranged Spells

When casting a spell at a target at range, you must overcome the Target's Evasion in addition to the Spell Difficulty. (-> Two separate rolls?)

### Enchanting

Using Enchanted Items

Enchanted Items have their own Magicka pools. This is determined by the soul size of the soul used to create the item.

When an enchantment is used, it requires Magicka points from the item's pool equal to the Enchantment Cost.

Cast on Use items require a bonus action to use - you can only use one Cast on Use enchantment per Turn. Cast on Strike enchantments take effect whenever the item strikes a target. For bows and crossbows, they take effect when the ammunition hits a target.

Items recharge Magicka naturally, at a rate of one per hour (Change?), or can be recharged using soul gems. (Recharge using Magicka?)

#### Types of Enchantments

Cast on Use enchantments take a bonus action to use, and only one Cast on Use enchantment can be used per Turn. Cast on Use enchantments can be Self, Touch, or Target effects. For Self, the effect is applied to the user. For Touch and Target, the one who uses item casts the spell successfully.

Cast on Strike enchantments activate whenever the item strikes a target. For bows and crossbows, they take effect when the ammunition strikes a target. Cast on Strike enchantments can be either Self or Touch effects. For Self, the effect is applied to whoever has the item equipped. For Touch, the effect is applied to the target that was struck.

Cast on Condition enchantments activate on a condition set at creation time, for example casting when someone enters a room, casting when a certain word is said, or casting when someone steps on the item. The target must also be specified, work with the GM to make sure a created condition is specific enough.

Constant Effect enchantments are always active when an item is equipped, and do not need to be used. Constant Effect enchantments can only be Self effects. The effect is applied to whoever has the item equipped.

Enchantment Cost

The Enchantment Cost is equivalent to the Spell Cost of the magic effects.

Enchantment Difficulty

The Enchantment Difficulty is a base of 20, plus four times the Enchantment Cost of the effects.

Soul Gems & Enchant Capacity

A soul of sufficient size is necessary to perform an enchantment. The size of the soul must meet or exceed the Enchantment Cost.

Paying for Enchantment

The base cost of an Enchantment is 100 times the Enchantment Difficulty.

Enchanting an item yourself

To Enchant an item yourself, roll a d20, add your Enchant skill plus your Intelligence on 4. If you meet or exceed the Enchantment Difficulty, the Enchantment is a success. The soul used is still consumed on a failed Enchantment. You must know a spell with the effect to be enchanted in order to enchant and item with a given effect.

### Runes

Using Runes

A Rune is a single use enchantment on an item, requiring no soul gem to be created. A Rune may have any casting type as described in Types of Enchantments, besides Constant Effect. Besides their single cast nature, they function the same as an equivalent enchantment.

Creating a Rune

To create a Rune, you must succeed on an Enchant check - Enchant plus Intelligence / 4 - against the Enchantment Difficulty of the effect. Enchantment Difficulty is calculated the same way as for normal enchantments. Rather than requiring a soul gem of sufficient size, creating a Rune requires the creator to use Magicka points equal to the Enchantment Cost. You must know a spell with the effect to be enchanted in order to create a rune with a given effect.

### Alchemy

Using a Potion

On your turn, you may drink a potion as a bonus action. You may only drink one potion per turn.

For poisons, you may use a bonus action to apply a poison to a weapon. This poison affects whatever target is next hit with that weapon successfully. You may not stack poisons on a weapon and the poison lasts for only one successful hit.

Creating a Potion

Creating a Potion requires at least a Mortar & Pestle, any other alchemical tools (Calcinator, Retort, Alembic) are optional. A Potion also requires at least two ingredients, and a maximum of four ingredients. The spell effects of the potions are whatever effects are shared by all the ingredients. If no effects are shared, potion creation automatically fails.

Determining Potion Success

If a d20 roll plus your Alchemy plus your Intelligence on 4 meets or exceeds 20, a potion is successfully created.

Determining Potion Strength

The Magnitude of potion effects is determined by your Alchemy multiplied by 2, plus your Intelligence on 4, plus the quality of your Mortar & Pestle plus your Alembic, the total divided by the effect Base Cost. Each effect is calculated separately, having multiple effects does not reduce the strength of the other effects. (Ingredient potency?)

((Alchemy * 2) + (Intelligence / 4) + Mortar & Pestle + Alembic + Ingredient Potency) / Base Cost

Determining Potion Duration

The Duration of potion effects in Turns is determined by your Alchemy multiplied by 2, plus your Intelligence on 4, plus the quality of your Calcinator plus your Retort, the total divided by 4. Each effect is calculated separately, having multiple effects does not reduce the duration of the other effects.

((Alchemy * 2) + (Intelligence / 4) + Calcinator + Retort + Ingredient Potency) / 4

Note: Both Strength and Duration use your Alchemy times 2 plus your Intelligence on 4. The number before division for Magnitude and Duration calculations are constant when equipment and stats do not change. It may be useful to write down these numbers if you create potions often.


## Non-Magic Combat
### Armor & Evasion

Determining your Armor Class

Your Armor Class is simply the armor values of all the items you wearing added, plus your current armor type's skill on 2. For example, a character with Iron Boots (1.5), Iron Gauntlets (1.5), Iron Helmet (2), Steel Greaves (3), and a Chainmail Cuirass (3), with a Heavy Armor skill of 11 (⌊11/2⌋ = 5), has an Armor Class of 16.

Your Armor Class value determines the damage reduction when you are hit by a non-magical attack. The incoming damage is reduced by points equal to your Armor Class, with minimum damage being 1/5 the incoming value. (Change to 1/10?)

Determining your Evasion

The base evasion value for characters is 10, plus your Agility on 4. Skill modifiers are determined by what kind of armor set you are wearing.

For Unarmored characters, add your Unarmored on 2.

For characters in Light Armor, add your Light Armor on 4.

For characters in Heavy Armor, no modifiers are added.

The overall armor type of the character is determined by what the majority of the main slots (Boots, Legs, Chest, Hands, Helmet) contain. For each non-conforming item your armor skill is reduced by two for the purposes of Evasion calculation. (Change? Mixed calculation?)

### Making an Attack

Determining Attack damage

Before making an Attack Roll, you must decide how much Fatigue you are investing in the attack. Different weapon types require and allow different amounts of Fatigue to be used (See table). Each extra Fatigue used beyond the minimum required increases the damage, depending on the material and weapon type (See table). Finally, your Strength score is added to the Damage.

Determining Attack success

Your Attack Roll is equivalent to your weapon skill plus your Agility on 4. Make a roll with a d20, if the roll plus your Attack Roll meets or exceeds the target's Evasion value, the attack hits.

Ranged Weapons

Making an Attack with a Ranged Weapon is no different from any other weapon, however you must be aware of Ammunition and Range.

Throwing weapons are their own Ammunition, and can be recovered after they have hit something.

Bows use Arrows and Crossbows use Bolts, their damage is added to the normal Attack damage. Arrows and bolts may be recovered, but not always. A good guideline is recovering half of arrows that hit a target, though this is up to the GM. Arrows which miss can always be recovered, if you can find them.

All Ranged weapons have an effective range, outside of this range you subtract one from your Attack Roll for every 5ft.

Spears & Staves

Spears and Staves have more reach than other weapons. They can reach enemies up to 10ft away, rather than the 5ft of normal weapons.

Attacking an enemy within 5ft with a Spear or Staff, however, reduces your Attack Roll by 10.


## Playing the Game
### Rounds

A Round consists of the Turns of all characters involved in some situation, most often combat. Outside of combat, Rounds are not required, but can be used if the GM finds it fit.

The first part of the Round is Declaration, wherein characters declare what they will attempt to do on their Turn. Declaration moves in reverse Turn Order (i.e. higher Speed declares last, lower Speed declares first).

After all characters have Declared, the Turns are taken in Turn order. Characters attempt to do whatever they Declared.

Turn Order

Turn Order is determined by Speed. Characters with higher Speed act first, characters with lower Speed last. Ties may be broken with a d20 challenge or agreement between players.

(Change to use a roll as well?)

#### Declaration

Declaration moves in reverse Turn Order (i.e. higher Speed declares last, lower Speed declares first). This allows characters with a higher Speed to decide their actions based on the Declaration of lower Speed characters, giving a significant advantage.

For example, a goblin declares that they are going to run over and attack a wizard. The wizard has a higher Speed, and makes their declaration after the goblin. They see that the goblin is going to attack them, and so decides to cast a Fire Shield spell.

#### Turn

On a character's Turn, they attempt to enact whatever they decided in their Declaration. For example, a rogue sees a health potion sitting on a table, and in their declaration states they're going to run over and drink it. On their Turn, they begin to run over, but knock right into an invisible wall. They cannot get to the potion, and so their turn ends.

In the goblin example from the Declaration section, the wizard acts first, and on their Turn successfully casts their Fire Shield spell. The goblin, as they declared, runs to the wizard and attacks, only to get a heavy dose of fire damage, and our wizard remains unscathed.

### Movement

Your movement speed is a base of 10ft per Turn, plus your Athletics on 4 added with your Speed on 2 times 5ft. E.g. A character with a Speed of 13 and an Athletics of 9 has a movement speed of 10ft + ((13/2 + 9/4) * 5ft) → 50ft.

You can move once per Turn (Fatigue cost? Half speed free?), plus one additional time for 2 Fatigue.

### Actions

Actions encompass many thing you might want to do on a Turn. The most common are making an Attack and Casting a Spell.

You have only one Action per Turn.

Bonus Actions

Many things do not take up a full action, and instead are bonus actions, which can be taken in addition to normal actions. Examples would be drinking a Potion, using an Enchantment on an item, dropping an item, or shouting something.

Most bonus actions can only be taken once per Turn, e.g. you can only drink one potion per Turn. This is the default for any bonus action unless otherwise specified.

Speaking is an example of a bonus action which can be done multiple times in a Turn, the limits are up to the GM.

Equipping and Changing Weapons

Equipping a weapon is a bonus action, however if you store your current weapon it takes a full Action. If you drop your current weapon, equipping a new weapon remains a bonus action.


## Progression
### Attribute Increases

An Attribute increases by 1 when there have been 2 increases in Skills it governs, either one Skill increasing by two or two Skills increasing by one. The maximum base value of an Attribute is 20, it cannot be raised further with Skill increases.

### Skill Increases

A Skill increases by one when a player reaches 2x the value being increased to in Experience points. The maximum base value for a Skill is 20.

#### Experience

When the GM feels a player has used a Skill a significant amount, has used a Skill in a particularly clever way, or a way that fits the character very well from a roleplay perspective, the GM awards the player an Experience point in that Skill. When a player has gained enough Experience points in a Skill, the Skill increases.

Some examples:

  • A player using Light Armor and a Spear has finished a long combat, or a series of smaller fights. The GM awards an Experience point in each.

  • A mage has used a new Destruction spell for the first time. The GM awards an Experience point in Destruction.

  • A thief managed to open a moderately difficult lock. The GM awards an Experience point in Security.

  • A player used an enchanted item to save themselves from a dangerous situation. The GM awards an experience point in Enchant.

  • A warrior in Heavy Armor tanks and holds off a horde of enemies, fighting to the last breath to buy time for the party to think of a way to escape. The GM awards 2 Experience points in Heavy Armor.

  • A mage managed to cast a Conjuration spell far beyond their normal skill, achieving a key objective for the party's, or their own, quest. The GM awards 3 Experience points in Conjuration.

  • A slick-talking player manages to buy an item at a price significantly below what the seller was originally asking. The GM awards an Experience point in Speechcraft.

The points at which GMs award Experience are up to them, though they should not be too reserved with them - many Experience points are needed to advance.

Experience Required Table
