    A Kingdom of Their Own Empty A Kingdom of Their Own

    Post by LokiLeader Tue Oct 11, 2011 1:53 pm

    I decided that I was going to try and run a second campaign and try to make it very themed to support a strong group effort. How its going to go is like this. In the game the GM will be the King and you each will choose a hero type from a list that i will give you, but there can only be 1 of each hero type. You will do quests, get new gear, get better at fighting, building,crafting,selling and more. You will add to your city to make it into a wonderful and glorious place so that all kingdoms around ours will stare in awe. You will travel upon the high seas, exploring unknown lands, battling pirates, pillaging if you so desire.

    Now the class you choose will affect most missions. Some missions will require alot of running around the castle and others not so much.


    Stats:
    Strength (STR) (melee attack and physical labor)
    Cunning (CUN) (Spell attacks and resisting influences)
    Stamina (STA) (length you can run, fight, and how many hits you can take)
    Maneuverability (MAN) (+ MAN lvl to your defense. Adds to ranged attacks.)
    Charismatic (CHA) (adds to any rolls that may influence others.)

    Wounds (Health) starts = to 2x you Sta. You take 1 wound for every 2 points above your defense you are hit (ex: you have a defense 13 and they hit for 17. you take 2 wounds.)


    All Stats start at 4 and you have 5 QP to spend on stats. a stat cannot be higher than 20 and cannot start higher than 8. For every 2 points past 4 your stat is 50% better meaning that if 4 is the average, 8 is 100% better and 12 is 200% better.

    To raise a stat by 1 it will cost 1 Quest Point (QP). this will change when a stat reaches level 8 were it will start to cost 2 from then on for a stat to raise a level. Stats are only able to go to 10. 4 is considered the average citzen level of a skill and 5 is the average hero. For every point above 4 you add 1 to any rolls. All rolls are made with a d10 and you add a weapon's base to your roll.


    The available classes are:
    BlackSmith
    Knight Captain
    Spy
    Wizard
    Physician
    Merchant


    I will describe each class with its own post after this

    Weapon/armor Qualities:
    Crude:-2 to base stat

    Normal:0
    high quality: +1
    Grand:+2

    Damaged levels of weapons and armor:
    Incinerated: Scorched and brittle if used in this state even once it will shatter.
    Cleaved: A large hole in your armor or maybe a blade has been broken in half. -5 to attack/armor
    Cracked: chips and cracks are weak points in your gear -3 to attack/armor
    Bent: you've got some dents here and there and now you blades are lopsided. -1 to attack/armor

    Base score= basic damage or defense given by the item

    (10 Shilings per piece. Ammo can be retireved)Throwing weapons: (QA) base 3 (30 Ft -1 to attack for every 5 ft)
    (50 Shilings +25Shilings per stone)Staves: base 1 melee and base (# of stones) ranged (SR)

    (AS) Armor Smasher: If the enemy is wearing medium or heavy armor and you beat the enemies defense by more than 1/2 of their armor base (rounded up) then their armor becomes Bent. If you do this again their armor becomes cracked.
    (SB) Shield Breaker: If you hit an enemy with a shield and you beat the enemies defense by more than 1/2 of their shield base(rounded up) then their armor becomes Bent. If you do this again their armor becomes cracked.
    (SW) Slashing Weapon: If your opponent is unarmored you get a +1 to your wounds against them.

    (SR) Slow Reload: It takes 1 of your 2 actions to reload or change the stones on the object.
    (QA) Quick Attack: You may use both actions to do 3 attacks instead of 2.

    Next up is the city itself. Your city also has stats that are determined by your buildings and population. All of these start at 2 except your population which starts at 1. Your city has a keep and a housing district.

    Population: Raises occasionally. -1 loyalty, -1 happiness per population point past the first. -1 additional happiness if you do not have a housing district for each pop point.
    Loyalty: Dangerous if left unattended to. May cause riots or civil war if unkempt.
    Order: Cuts down on crime rates. the more crimes that occure the less loyalty and happiness people will have.
    Science: the higher your science rate the more chances you have of making a breakthrough. This can give you new tech or improve current tech.
    Happiness: When a city is unhappy crime rates and prices increase. An unhappy city looks good to someone who might want to "liberate" the people.

    Civic Buildings:
    Cathedral - 1 allowed - +1 loyalty, +1 happiness - 1 science.
    Tavern - 1 Per Housing District - +2 Happiness -1 order.
    More buildings soon...

    Personally, I don't think I could handle another forum RPG, at least during schoolio. The story of this one would be great for one when we meet, seeing as it would be more disconnected. That, and when I think of those we play not on forum what comes up are mine and Wagner's space ones, neither of which are quite fleshed out. In the future I see possibly Ethan's nausuverse and my Leon Nine which I have high hopes for. As for Steve, he'll like it so long as the rules and story can take the hits from his hilarity. Since your you, I think you'd be completely open to his shenanigans. Obviously, final decision is up to you; you can always recheck the atmosphere once your more ready.

    Alright then its settled. Im goign to turn this into pen and paper and I will be fine with Steve's nonsense. afterall one of the quest i had in mind was fighting an army of frogs and another was trying to find a way to fend of the evil DIRE CHINCHILLAS! It was meant to be both funny and serious.

    I like the concept of building the kingdom (I've always liked games where you improved on a home base) and the inclusion of such classes as the merchant and blacksmith. As for stats, I'm not sure what's in your head, but can't ING/CUN/TRI and possibly SEN be combined? Additionally, STE seems an aspect of MAN.

    Any chance this will be ready by the next weekend or two? It'd be cool if you put all the char creation stuff here so that when we meet we're already ready to play.

    Wizard

    The wizard casts spells... oh and they enchant things. In order for a Wizard to work their mojo they need to memorize their spells before hand. A wizard may memorize spells by using magic to carve rune stones that, when absorbed and memorized in a certain order can create a spell. Now I have a large list of spells to go through but ima give a few here and let the wizard tinker later on. A rune works by carving into the stone a symbol that represents a rune power and then exposing the rune to its power source. Take for example the fire rune. First you would magically carve the fire symbol into it, then drop it in a fire for a few seconds, then it will be ready to absorb. When a spell is memorized it can be used as many times during the day as possible, however, when a spell is cast, the cast begins to build a cumulatice upkeep of -1 to their attacks, meaning, that if a wizard casts a spell his next spell will have -1 on the attack and the spell after will have -2 and so on.

    Starting skills:
    Level 0 runes and spells
    Runes: Wind, fire, water, earth
    Spells: Flaming stone: base 4 physical damage and 2 fire damage wind, fire, earth
    Hot water: You can magically boil water Wind, Fire, Water
    Gust: fast winds (cause enemies to roll for falling) Base 2 damage if check is failed (Wind, Earth, Water)
    Staff Training

    Learnable skills:
    Level 1 runes and spells: QP2
    Rune: Dark
    Spell: Drown base 6 physical target is scared (flees if fails check) Dark, Water, wind
    Blind target can't see Dark, Fire, Earth
    Level 2 runes and spells: QP4
    Rune: Light
    Spell: Growth renourish and grow plants Light, Earth, Water
    Madness Target attacks nearest person for a turn Light, Dark, Wind
    Flare: Create an orb of light Light, Fire, Dark
    Level 3 runes and spells QP6
    Rune: Force
    Spell: Lightning Bolt base 2d8 damage electrical, if a crit fail it hits the caster at half damage if a normal fail it hits an ally at half damage.
    Fireball: Base 8 fire damage with 50% chance to ignite foe for 1 damage per turn for the rest of combat. Force, Wind, Fire
    Mind Spike: Deals 2d10 to caster and instantly kills a non magic resistant target. Dark, Force, Earth
    Detect Magic: QP2
    Detect Magic Type and Resistence: QP3
    Teleport to portal: 2 QP
    Teleport to party member: 3 QP
    Minor enchant: 3QP (plus 1...)
    Major Enchant: 5QP (Plus 2...)
