Spending XP

Xp is spent like a currency to gain more power. the chart above shows how much different parts of your character cost to gain a new dice in

Example Neriyan is a Elf outlander.

If Neriyan wants to improve his Might to 3 then he has to buy each pip. Neriyan starts out with 1 pip in Might for free. Neriyan then spends 20 xp to raise his Might to 2 Neriyan then has to spend 30 xp to raise it to Might 3

If Neriyan wants to raise his Agility to 3 he gets a bonus because he's an elf Neriyan's multiplier for agility is not X 10, it's X8 So Neriyan for Agility 2 spends 16 xp and for Agility 3 he spends 24 xp.

If Neriyan wants to increase Endurance to 3 because he is an elf he gets a panalty so his multiplier is X 11 Endurance 2 costs 22 xp Endurance 3 costs 33 xp

Chapter 2: Races

Choosing a race

Every character belongs to one race or another. All manor of beings inhabit Eatheria. The most common races are Humans, Elves, Dwarves. Your first step into this new fantastical world is choosing your race.

Human

Humans are the descendants of pioneers, conquerors, traders, travelers, refugees, and other people on the move. As a result, human lands are home to a mix of people—physically, culturally, religiously, and politically different. Hardy or fine, light-skinned or dark, showy or austere, primitive or civilized, devout or impious, humans run the gamut.

Contents

Personality:

Humans are the most adaptable, flexible, and ambitious people among the common races. They are diverse in their tastes, morals, customs, and habits. Others accuse them of having little respect for history, but it’s only natural that humans, with their relatively short life spans and constantly changing cultures, would have a shorter collective memory than dwarves, elves, gnomes, or halflings.

Physical Description:

Humans typically stand from 5 feet to a little over 6 feet tall and weigh from 125 to 250 pounds, with men noticeably taller and heavier than women. Thanks to their penchant for migration and conquest, and to their short life spans, humans are more physically diverse than other common races. Their skin shades range from nearly black to very pale, their hair from black to blond (curly, kinky, or straight), and their facial hair (for men) from sparse to thick. Plenty of humans have a dash of nonhuman blood, and they may demonstrate hints of elf, orc, or other lineages. Members of this race are often ostentatious or unorthodox in their grooming and dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, body piercings, and the like. Humans have short life spans, reaching adulthood at about age 15 and rarely living even a single century.

Language

Humans speak Common. They typically learn other languages as well, including obscure ones, and they are fond of sprinkling their speech with words borrowed from other tongues: Orc curses, Elven musical expressions, Dwarven military phrases, and so on

Elves

Elves mingle freely in human lands, always welcome yet never at home there. They are well known for their poetry, dance, song, lore, and magical arts. Elves favor things of natural and simple beauty. When danger threatens their woodland homes, however, elves reveal a more martial side, demonstrating skill with sword, bow, and battle strategy.

Automatic Language	Common and Elf

Personality:

Elves are more often amused than excited, and more likely to be curious than greedy. With such a long life span, they tend to keep a broad perspective on events, remaining aloof and unfazed by petty happenstance. When pursuing a goal, however, whether an adventurous mission or learning a new skill or art, they can be focused and relentless. They are slow to make friends and enemies, and even slower to forget them. They reply to petty insults with disdain and to serious insults with vengeance.

Physical Description:

Elves are short and slim, standing about 4- 1/2 to 5-1/2 feet tall and typically weighing 95 to 135 pounds, with elf men the same height as and only marginally heavier than elf women. They are graceful but frail. They tend to be pale-skinned and dark-haired, with deep green eyes. Elves have no facial or body hair. They prefer simple, comfortable clothes, especially in pastel blues and greens, and they enjoy simple yet elegant jewelry. Elves possess unearthly grace and fine features. Many humans and members of other races find them hauntingly beautiful. An elf reaches adulthood at about 110 years of age and can live to be more than 700 years old. Elves do not sleep, as members of the other common races do. Instead, an elf meditates in a deep trance for 4 hours a day. An elf resting in this fashion gains the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep. While meditating, an elf dreams, though these dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive through years of practice. The Common word for an elf’s meditation is “trance,” as in “four hours of trance.”

Dwarves

Dwarves are known for their skill in warfare, their ability to withstand physical and magical punishment, their knowledge of the earth’s secrets, their hard work, and their capacity for drinking ale. Their mysterious kingdoms, carved out from the insides of mountains, are renowned for the marvelous treasures that they produce as gifts or for trade.

Automatic Language	Common and Dwarven

Personality:

Dwarves are slow to laugh or jest and suspicious of strangers, but they are generous to those few who earn their trust. Dwarves value gold, gems, jewelry, and art objects made with these precious materials, and they have been known to succumb to greed. They fight neither recklessly nor timidly, but with a careful courage and tenacity. Their sense of justice is strong, but at its worst it can turn into a thirst for vengeance. Among gnomes, who get along famously with dwarves, a mild oath is “If I’m lying, may I cross a dwarf.”

Physical Description:

Dwarves stand only 4 to 4-1/2 feet tall, but they are so broad and compact that they are, on average, almost as heavy as humans. Dwarf men are slightly taller and noticeably heavier than dwarf women. Dwarves’ skin is typically deep tan or light brown, and their eyes are dark. Their hair is usually black, gray, or brown, and worn long. Dwarf men value their beards highly and groom them very carefully. Dwarves favor simple styles for their hair, beards, and clothes. Dwarves are considered adults at about age 40, and they can live to be more than 400 years old.

Language:

Dwarves speak Dwarven, which has its own runic script. Dwarven literature is marked by comprehensive histories of kingdoms and wars through the millennia. The Dwarven alphabet is also used (with minor variations) for the Gnome, Giant, Goblin, Orc, and Terran languages. Dwarves often speak the languages of their friends (humans and gnomes) and enemies. Some also learn Terran, the strange language of earth-based creatures such as xorn.

Stonecunning:

.This ability grants a dwarf a +2 racial bonus on Search checks to notice unusual stonework, such as sliding walls, stonework traps, new construction (even when built to match the old), unsafe stone surfaces, shaky stone ceilings, and the like. Something that isn’t stone but that is disguised as stone also counts as unusual stonework. A dwarf who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as if he were actively searching, and a dwarf can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can. A dwarf can also intuit depth, sensing his approximate depth underground as naturally as a human can sense which way is up. Dwarves have a sixth sense about stonework, an innate ability that they get plenty of opportunity to practice and hone in their underground homes.

Weapon Familiarity:

Dwarves are so familiar with dwarven waraxes and dwarven urgroshes (see Equipment) they receive a -1 difficulty to their attack rolls.

Stability:

Dwarves are exceptionally stable on their feet. A dwarf gains a +4 bonus on ability checks made to resist being bull rushed or tripped when standing on the ground (but not when climbing, flying, riding, or otherwise not standing firmly on the ground).

Halflings

Halflings are clever, capable opportunists. Halfling individuals and clans find room for themselves wherever they can. Often they are strangers and wanderers, and others react to them with suspicion or curiosity. Depending on the clan, halflings might be reliable, hard-working (if clannish) citizens, or they might be thieves just waiting for the opportunity to make a big score and disappear in the dead of night. Regardless, halflings are cunning, resourceful survivors.

Automatic Language	Common and Halfling

Personality:

Halflings prefer trouble to boredom. They are notoriously curious. Relying on their ability to survive or escape danger, they demonstrate a daring that many larger people can’t match. Halflings clans are nomadic, wandering wherever circumstance and curiosity take them. Halflings enjoy wealth and the pleasure it can bring, and they tend to spend gold as quickly as they acquire it. Halflings are also famous collectors. While more orthodox halflings may collect weapons, books, or jewelry, some collect such objects as the hides of wild beasts—or even the beasts themselves. Wealthy halflings sometimes commission adventurers to retrieve exotic items to complete their collections.

Physical Description:

Halflings stand about 3 feet tall and usually weigh between 30 and 35 pounds. Their skin is ruddy, their hair black and straight. They have brown or black eyes. Halfling men often have long sideburns, but beards are rare among them and mustaches almost unseen. They like to wear simple, comfortable, and practical clothes. A halfling reaches adulthood at the age of 20 and generally lives into the middle of her second century.

Gnomes

Gnomes are welcome everywhere as technicians, alchemists, and inventors. Despite the demand for their skills, most gnomes prefer to remain among their own kind, living in comfortable burrows beneath rolling, wooded hills where animals abound.

Personality:

Gnomes adore animals, beautiful gems, and jokes of all kinds. Members of this race have a great sense of humor, and while they love puns, jokes, and games, they relish tricks—the more intricate the better. They apply the same dedication to more practical arts, such as engineering, as they do to their pranks. Gnomes are inquisitive. They love to find things out by personal experience. At times they’re even reckless. Their curiosity makes them skilled engineers, since they are always trying new ways to build things. Sometimes a gnome pulls a prank just to see how the people involved will react.

Physical Description:

Gnomes stand about 3 to 3-1/2 feet tall and weigh 40 to 45 pounds. Their skin ranges from dark tan to woody brown, their hair is fair, and their eyes can be any shade of blue. Gnome males prefer short, carefully trimmed beards. Gnomes generally wear leather or earth tones, and they decorate their clothes with intricate stitching or fine jewelry. Gnomes reach adulthood at about age 40, and they live about 350 years, though some can live almost 500 years.

Half-Elf

Humans and elves sometimes wed, the elf attracted to the human’s energy and the human to the elf’s grace. These marriages end quickly as elves count years because a human’s life is so brief, but they leave an enduring legacy—half-elf children. The life of a half-elf can be hard. If raised by elves, the half-elf seems to grow with astounding speed, reaching maturity within two decades. The half-elf becomes an adult long before she has had time to learn the intricacies of elven art and culture, or even grammar. She leaves behind her childhood friends, becoming physically an adult but culturally still a child by elven standards. Typically, she leaves her elven home, which is no longer familiar, and finds her way among humans. If, on the other hand, she is raised by humans, the half-elf finds herself different from her peers: more aloof, more sensitive, less ambitious, and slower to mature. Some half-elves try to fit in among humans, while others find their identities in their difference. Most find places for themselves in human lands, but some feel like outsiders all their lives.

Personality:

Most half-elves have the curiosity, inventiveness, and ambition of the human parent, along with the refined senses, love of nature, and artistic tastes of the elf parent.

Physical Description:

To humans, half-elves look like elves. To elves, they look like humans—indeed, elves call them half-humans. Half-elf height ranges from under 5 feet to about 6 feet tall, and weight usually ranges from 100 to 180 pounds. Half-elf men are taller and heavier than half-elf women, but the difference is less pronounced than that found among humans. Half-elves are paler, fairer, and smoother-skinned than their human parents, but their actual skin tone, hair color, and other details vary just as human features do. Half-elves’ eyes are green, just as are those of their elf parents. A half-elf reaches adulthood at age 20 and can live to be over 180 years old. Most half-elves are the children of human–elf pairings. Some, however, are the children of parents who themselves are partly human and partly elf. Some of these “second generation” half-elves have humanlike eyes, but most still have green eyes.

Half-Orc

Half-Orcs, as seen by civilized races, half-orcs are monstrosities, the result of perversion and violence—whether or not this is actually true. Half-orcs are rarely the result of loving unions, and as such are usually forced to grow up hard and fast, constantly fighting for protection or to make names for themselves. Half-orcs as a whole resent this treatment, and rather than play the part of the victim, they tend to lash out, unknowingly confirming the biases of those around them. A few feared, distrusted, and spat-upon half-orcs manage to surprise their detractors with great deeds and unexpected wisdom—though sometimes it’s easier just to crack a few skulls. Some half-orcs spend their entire lives proving to full-blooded orcs that they are just as fierce. Others opt for trying to blend into human society, constantly demonstrating that they aren’t monsters.

Contents

Personality

Half-orcs tend to be short-tempered and sullen. They would rather act than ponder and would rather fight than argue. Those who are successful, however, are those with enough self-control to live in a civilized land, not the crazy ones. Half-orcs love simple pleasures such as feasting, drinking, boasting, singing, wrestling, drumming, and wild dancing. Refined enjoyments such as poetry, courtly dancing, and philosophy are lost on them. At the right sort of party, a half-orc is an asset. At the duchess’s grand ball, he’s a liability.

Physical Description

Half-orcs stand between 6 and 7 feet tall and usually weigh between 180 and 250 pounds. A half-orc’s grayish pigmentation, sloping forehead, jutting jaw, prominent teeth, and coarse body hair make his lineage plain for all to see. Orcs like scars. They regard battle scars as tokens of pride and ornamental scars as things of beauty. Any half-orc who has lived among or near orcs has scars, whether they are marks of shame indicating servitude and identifying the half-orc’s former owner, or marks of pride recounting conquests and high status. Such a half-orc living among humans may either display or hide his scars, depending on his attitude toward them.

Automatic Language	Common and Draconic

Baaz

Baaz are the smallest of the draconians and hatched from brass dragon eggs they are used as ground troops in the dragon armies forces. The weakest of the draconians, baaz draconians are often abused and treated as slaves by others. However, their small size makes it easy for them to work in disguise and infiltrate the enemy. Additionally, the baaz can use their wings to intimidate their enemies. Baaz draconians turn to stone upon their deaths.

XP Multiplier Modifier	Agility -1.
Intimidating Charge	You can flap your wings rapidly to increase your speed by 5 feet. While flapping your wings, if you move at least 10 feet straight toward a target, the target must immediately succeed a Willpower check with target number of successes equal to the intimidation score or become frightened by you until the end of its next turn. After you use your Intimidating Charge, you can’t use it again until you complete a short or long rest.

Tiefling

Tieflings are simultaneously more and less than mortal, tieflings are the offspring of humans and fiends. With otherworldly blood and traits to match, tieflings are often shunned and despised out of reactionary fear. Most tieflings never know their fiendish sire, as the coupling that produced their curse occurred generations earlier. The taint is long-lasting and persistent, often manifesting at birth or sometimes later in life, as a powerful, though often unwanted, boon. Despite their fiendish appearance and netherworld origins, tieflings have a human's capacity of choosing their fate, and while many embrace their dark heritage and side with fiendish powers, others reject their darker predilections. Though the power of their blood calls nearly every tiefling to fury, destruction, and wrath, even the spawn of a succubus can become a saint and the grandchild of a pit fiend an unsuspecting hero.

Physical Description:

No two tieflings look alike; the fiendish blood running through their veins manifests inconsistently, granting them an array of fiendish traits. One tiefling might appear as a human with small horns, a barbed tail, and oddly colored eyes, while another might manifest a mouth of fangs, tiny wings, and claws, and yet another might possess the perpetual smell of blood, foul incenses, and brimstone. Typically, these qualities hearken back in some way to the manner of fiend that spawned the tiefling's bloodline, but even then the admixture of human and fiendish blood is rarely ruled by sane, mortal laws, and the vast flexibility it produces in tieflings is a thing of wonder, running the gamut from oddly beautiful to utterly terrible.

Pixie

Pixies are an enchanted race born of raw fey magic, pixies are the diminutive tiny folk of the Feywild. Under the direction of the Court of Stars, they etch the patterns of frost on the winter ponds and rouse the buds in springtime. They cause flowers to grow and sparkle with summer dew, and they color the leaves with the blazing hues of autumn. It is said that they taught the birds to fly and to sing. These childlike sprites have a penchant for mischievous fun, and there is no game a fairy will not play, no sport it will not attempt, and no revelry it will avoid or decline.

Pixies are nature's immature answer to elves. They are chaotic even with their laws. They are shy and reclusive and adore playing tricks and pranks, seldom bothering outsiders otherwise unless their curiosity gets the better of them.

Physical Description

Pixies rarely reach over 1 foot tall, and their wings come in many designs and patterns, ranging from butterfly to beetle. They often look like tiny elves, with pointed ears and ranging skin tones. They carry the normal array of human skin tones as well as light shades of the rest of the spectrum of colors, coming from light shades of red to copper and bronze. They can even carry small attributes of the insect family they hail from, including antennae, fluff, and the wing styles. Their eyes often look like a molten liquid but the pupils can be visible if you can ever get a close enough look. They love vibrantly colored clothes or shiny metal armor, something that speaks about their personality on a level that other pixies and some people can understand.

Personality

Forged can have unique personality traits, though, as they are constructs, those are restricted in some ways. they experience anger, pain, fear, and hatred like their human creators. all forged naturally seem reserved, stoic, and pensive, hiding an array of emotions behind their inexpressive metallic faces. their faces were not designed to display facial expressions, so it can seem like they are distant to the conversation. despite their lack of physical facial expressions, they're not completely without them, as their eyes tend to brighten when experiencing strong or specific emotions. some forged have their faces modified to be more expressive for their companion's comfort, but these expressions are learned rather than natural and often appear stilted and awkward. some forged can be incredibly naïve and lack a sense of introspection. however, many others are the opposite and question their existence, they wonder if, as constructs, they have souls, and ask what becomes of them in the after life. the more intelligent forged create complex philosophies about what they perceive and learn. though forged can show loyalty to religions and organizations, typically they become loyal to a small group of comrades. Forged often have little life experience as they have spent most of their time working towards one specific duty, usually soldiering. if there is one interest all forged share it is their love of working and the satisfaction of a job well done. many create endless lists of goals and chores to feed that feeling. they take pride in their work and can work incredibly hard, both traits that make them dislike idleness and failure. forged can excel at most tasks, having a single-minded efficiency, especially in combat related roles. but this same single-mindedness can often translate to a lack of creativity and they can be easily surprised or "outflanked." war and military thinking are the foundation of forged personalities. they understand duty, the chain of command, and conflict. forged dislike being called "it" and usually accept the gendered pronoun that they most closely resemble. some forged adopt names from the culture they were created in, though most of their names were assigned at construction and are straightforward and related to their job, abilities or rank. many forged simply accept the nicknames given to them by their comrades while others seek more meaningful names that best describe them.

Creation

The process to create a Forged has been lost to history and has not been practiced en masse for a really long time. The Forged that exist today caught the attention of a God who actually gave them souls and their own being. Normal people cannot actually create the Forged as they exist today. New Forged are created at a place known as the Foundry, where the bodies are created then presented to the God, if the God is pleased with the work, he imbues a soul into the construct creating a new Forged. Think of the god akin to Hephaestus from Greek mythology. All Forged awake fully formed with an inkling of a divine presence at their creation. This does not mean they have to follow the God, but they know a God had a hand in their making.

Now that we know what consists of a dice roll we need to figure out what the dice mean. Each of the die roll that reads either an 8, 9, or 10 is a success. If the dice rolls a 1, that 1 removes one of the successes in the roll. The dice don't just tell you if you succeed they tell you how well you succeed also.
If none of your dice roll any of these numbers you attempt fails.
There are three types of rolls, Instant, Prolonged, and Contested.

Instant rolls:

These are quick type of rolls. These rolls are resolves with only 1 dice roll. Only 1 success is required for roll to succeed (unless otherwise stated by GM), however, more successes will lead to better results. Instant rolls are quick actions, sneaking past a guard, jumping a fence, etc.

Prolonged rolls:

These are actions that take longer than an instant. These rolls persist for a number of rounds required to see a resolution Every round the dice roll is rolled, as long as 1 success is made each round the roll will continue. If at any point there are no successes in the round being rolled for the attempt is a failure. At the point the number of required successes has been reached then the attempt succeeds. If the character wants a better result they may choose to continue, however, the failure rule applies for over extending as well.

Contested rolls:

These rolls can happen either in an instant or over a prolonged period. In a contested action two or more characters are opposed in some action. In an instant this is resolved by the person who has more successes on their roll. In a prolonged action two opposing forces are attempting to reach a number of successes first.

Bonuses and Penalties

Bonuses or penalties come in two different types, the most common is adding or removing dice. Some instances the number required on the dice could change, increasing the number required increases the difficulty, while lowering the number required lowers the difficulty.

Critical Rolls

Critical Success

A roll is considered a critical success if the attempted roll gains 3 successes over the required successes it is considered a critical success. Critical success not only succeeds, but something beneficial happens. This could be triggering a weapons special ability, or finding a hidden compartment in a chest when you weren't searching for it, but were trying to unlock the chest. I leave what happens up to the GM.

Critical Fail

A roll is considered a critical failure when a roll has more 1s than it has successes. This could be a minor inconvenience or it could be catastrophic depending on how many negative dice the roll has. Again I leave up to the GM on what precisely happens.

Chapter 8: Combat

When talking and scheming don't work to resolve an issue, often times it leads to out right fighting. Here are the rules for combat in Eaetheria.

Initiative

When combat has been determined to start the first thing that is done is determine who goes in what order. This is done with an intiative roll. Each character rolls a d10 then adds their Cunning score to it, if there are any perks that allow another bonus these get added as well. Combat order goes from highest to lowest.

Attacking

Physical Attacks

When making an attack with a weapon you roll your Agility + Weapon skill, using an untrained weapon would mean you would just roll agility.
Basic attacks do not use a stamina point.
Special attacks use a stamina point, eg: Dodge, Grapple, Disarming, Extra attacks, etc.
You must spend a stamina point when using a weapon you are not trained in.

Magickal Attacks

When attacking with magick you must first decide how many rounds you want to spend casting the spell up to your rank in the skill.
Once you have decided how many rounds you are preparing for you are committed.
Spend any mana if needed. See Casting Spells
You roll your magick roll (Intelligence + Magick School) every round keeping track of the successes.
You must make at least 1 success on each of the rounds that you are preparing for, failure to do so means you fail the spell.
While preparing a spell you may still Evade attacks by spending a stamina point (Agility + Evasion).
If you are hit during your preparation, the amount of damage you take is removed from your successes for that round, potentially causing you to fail in your spell.

Combat Defense

When you are attacked you do have the capability dodge. Evasion is Agility + Evasion. Each evasion success removes 1 success from the attack roll. Each evasion uses a stamina point.
Magickal attacks work the same way except they use Willpower + School of Magick - A willpower evasion uses a mana point.

Resolving your attack

Physical Attack

Once you have the number of successes you have rolled minus the evasion successes as long as you have 1 success you successfully hit your target.
Any successes over the 1 needed are extra successes. Extra successes are automatic success damage levels when resolving damage.
Roll Might + Weapon Damage, each success on that roll is a level of damage dealth, then add the extra successes.

Magickal Attack

Once you have your successes on your magickal roll, there are some decisions you have to make.
You must decide how many of those successes you want to allocate to overcoming resistance to your spell, how many successes you want to apply to the duration of the spell, and how many successes you want to apply towards the effect of the spell.
If the number of successes you allocate beat the number of resistance successes, your spell affects them.
If you do not allocate any successes to duration, then the duration is instant.
Successes spent towards the effects of the spell, may add damage levels per success, or how well the effect actually is.

Damage Types

There are two damage types in Eaetheria Bashing and Lethal.

Bashing

Bashing damage will not kill, once the health levels are gone the target goes unconscious. Further damage after the target is unconscious turns the bashing damage into lethal damage on a point for point basis for further damage.

Lethal

Lethal damage is well, lethal this damage is done by most weapons designed to kill. Once the health levels are all gone with lethal damage the target is deceased.

Resisting Damage

Once you are hit with damage and that total has been calculated, that is not the end of it. You roll your Endurance score + your armor resistance rating, and every success you get on your Endurance roll reduces the damage level by 1. If you roll more successes on your Endurance than damage then you take no damage.

Contents

Quick Actions

Quick actions are actions that are so fast they can be accomplished while still making an attack, eg: taking a potion is a quick actions.

Movement in Combat

Movement is an action, if you want to move and to attack in the same round, you must spend a stamina point.

Healing

Natural Healing

character recovers 1 Health level per day of low activity rest. Low activity is nothing more strenuous than traveling, or riding a horse. If another character attends to the person for the day of rest, they may make a FirstAid check, if they get 2 successes the resting person heals 2 health levels that day. No rerolls are allowed on the FirstAid check.

Magickal Healing

Magickal healing depends on the spell as it is cast.

Potion Healing

Potions can be drunk to heal a number of health levels depending on the skill of the potion maker. Drinking a potion is a quick action. Giving a potion to somebody else in combat costs a stamina point.

Cover

Half Cover

Half cover is an obstacle that covers half of the target's body. This gives a +1 difficulty to the rolls to hit the target.

Full Cover

Full cover is an obstacle that covers more than half of the target's body. Full cover gives a +2 difficulty to rolls to hit the target.

Stamina

Stamina is used for specialty actions, Evading, Maneuvers, moving in combat, etc. Stamina can be recovered after a short rest by rolling Might + Endurance the result is how much Stamina you recover.

Stamina recovers fully after a long rest.

Chapter 9: Magick

Casting Spells

There are two different types of spellcasting.

Improvised Spellcasting

Improvised spellcasting is spellcasting that is done when you have not studied a specific method or matrixes of spell energies. Most wizards call their studied effects spells. When you are improvising a spell, you must expend a point of mana.

Spells

Spells are tried and true spell formulas, that you have practiced so much that you know the matrixes should work in an expectedway.

Spending Successes

One major difference between magick and phsyical attacks is the capability to decide where your successes go.

You have to decide how many successes are allocated to overcoming resistances.
You then decide if you want the spell to have greater than instant duration.
You then allocate dice for the effect/damage.

Mana

Mana is the resource that is used to power spells. You spend mana when casting an improvised spell.
You can use mana points to reduce the difficulty of your spell casting.
You regain mana by rolling your Willpower + Arcana after a short rest, after a long rest you regain all of your mana. The exception to this are places of power where you can siphon mana from the place.

Spells

Spells are memorized matrices of energy that do not cost you mana to cast on the account that you have practiced it enough to know how to cast it.

Countermagick

Use Arcana to check the spell that is being cast, and the effects.
The character can decide to try and use their magick to stop the spell from making it to the target.
The counterspell being used has to make sense in the moment eg: an enemy is casting a fireball, so you may decide to use Abjuration to put a giant shield over the target of the spell, or if you have Evocation school maybe you cast an ice ball to counteract the fire of the fireball.
Any successes made on this Countermagick roll are subtracted from the caster's magick roll for that round, if the counter magick successes reduce the attackers roll to 0, the spell is countered.
Countermagick cannot critically fail.
Countermagick is considered a reaction
You can spend any amount of mana to add automatic successes to your countermagick roll. If you have the mana available.

Chapter 10: Adventuring

Time

When keeping time is important the GM decides how long a task takes. There may be different increments of time being used depending on the location of the characters. In a dungeon time might be kept in minutes, while outside in the wilderness time might be kept in hours. Long journeys time might be tracked in days. In combat time is tracked in rounds, which are a span of about 6 seconds.

Movement

Movement in a general term is something the GM might summarize, for example you travel several miles to get to the cave entrance. While movement in combat or dangerous areas it may be tracked based on your movement speed of your character in feet. Special types of movement, climbing, swimming, crawling, jumping, might require an athletics check. Being stealthy reduces your movement speed to half.

Resting

Short Rest

A short rest is about a span of 10 minutes where you tend to wounds, clean your weapons, get a drink of water, and do some light activity while you catch your breath. At the end of a short rest a character can roll their Intelligence + Arcana to recover some mana, and roll Might + Endurance to regain stamina.

Long Rest

A long rest is a period of extended downtime at least 8 hours long. Long rests have to be taken in a safe place, or risk being interrupted. If the long rest is interrupted it has to start over. After a long rest a character recovers all of their mana and their stamina.

Equipment

Starting Equipment

Starting equipment is based off your Background Once you roll for your starting gold you may purchase any further equipment that you want that you can afford.

Wealth

Starting gold equals 3D10 X 10

The most common coin is the gold piece. The monetary system is a base 10 system. Standard coins weigh about 50 to a pound.

Exchange value	CP	SP	GP	PP	MP

Materials

Disclaimer: This is not an exhaustive list of materials that [[Armor]] and [[Weapons]] can be made out of. I encourage you to make your own combinations.

Material	Armor	Weapon
Normal Metal	No Special Properties	No Special Properties
Chitinous	Armor	Weapon
Mithril	Mithril Armor is considered 1 size category smaller even though it keeps the higher resistance. Mithril chain shirt, or breast plate Armor can also be hidden underneath clothes.	A weapon made of Mithril is lighter than a normal weapon, so it gives you a +1 dice to attack, in addition a two handed weapon can be wielded one handed if you choose.
Adamantine	Armor made with Adamantine turns critical hits into normal hits.	Adamantine weapons ignore 2 points of resistance from armor
Ironwood	Iron wood is as protective as Normal Metal unless enchanted, however, it floats in water making it hard to drown in.	Weapon
DragonHide/Bone	Dragonhide gives you resistance +2 to whichever element the dragon uses	A Weapon made out of Dragon Bone inflict an extra 2 levels of damage of the type the dragon uses.
Silk	Provides no protection in of itself, however, silk only needs half the mana to be infused into it to enchant	No weapons can be made out of silk
Shadow Silk	Armor	Weapon
Cold Iron	While wearing armor made out of Cold Iron, fey creatures have a +1 difficulty on their attack rolls against you. In addition you cannot be charmed by them.	When you are wielding a weapon made out of Cold Iron against Fey, you reduce your difficulty by 1 for attacks against them, and you deal an extra success of automatic damage when you hit.

Overview on Creating

GMBinder uses markdown for its primary content. To learn about Markdown and its supporting syntax, check this out

In addition, GM Binder allows for HTML content within your document. However, "User Beware" warnings apply. Especially now in this early stage. Using HTML for things like images and links is pretty safe. However, structured HTML like divs, tables, etc, may have undesired consequences.

GMBinder Specific

Page Breaks

Using \pagebreak will result in a page break. Or press Ctrl+; or Cnd+; to insert this.
Using \pagebreakNUm will result in a page break with page number. Or press Ctrl+' or Cnd+' to insert this.

Images

There are a couple ways you can place images. If you would like something positioned like you see on this page, you will need to provide the appropriate styles to do so. For example:

<img src='https://www.gmbinder.com/assets/img/books.jpg' style='position:absolute;bottom:45px;right:30px;width:380px; mix-blend-mode:multiply;' />

If you would like to place an image in-line within your content, simply providing an image tag with an external URL will be sufficient. Do be aware that your images should be sized appropriately for the content.

Wrapping to Column Two

Sometimes you want your content in column 1 to be cut short and continue on to column 2. The simplest way to accomplish this is to use:

\columnbreak

You can also press Ctrl+. or Cnd+. to insert this.

Footnotes

This is an example of using html and built in styles to get a desired output.
