House Rules for the Worlds Most Popular Role-playing Game (1974-1981)
2012, Roberto Pacini

Chapter 1: Getting Started

Each character is described by six numerical attributes: Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom, Constitution, Dexterity and Charisma. The standard way to create attribute scores is to roll 3d6 for each attribute in order (as listed above); once those rolls have been made the player can always choose to swap any two ability scores. Attribute Roll 3-12 13-15 16-17 18 Description Common Fair Good Great Bonus None +1 +2 +3 accumulates enough XP to reach an odd level, a new HD is rolled and added to the total (you also add your CON Bonus to every single HD). Hit Points are (optionally) re-rolled each time a Player Character gains a level. If the re-roll results in the character having fewer hit points for the new level than from the old level, the hit points remain the same. Starting Money Roll 3d6 and multiply the result by 10. This represents the number of metal pieces (mp) that a character possesses at the start of the campaign. Alignment A character can choose one of the three following alignments: Maverick, Comrade or Devotee. For a Maverick the group is just a mean to achieve his personal goals. For a Comrade the groups integrity is the main priority. For a Devotee the group is mainly a mean to favor the Group he belongs to.

Strength (STR)

Overpower people and perform mighty deeds, bonus added to melee damage.

Intelligence (INT)

Examine things and spout lore, add bonus to known languages.

Wisdom (WIS)

Analyze the surroundings.

Constitution (CON)

Withstand adversities, bonus added to Hit Points and AC

Dexterity (DEX)

Move swiftly and avoid danger, bonus added to AC

Charisma (CHA)
CHA 3-12 13-15 16-17 18

Hold a parlay and maximum hirelings. Hirelings (Max #) 2 4 6 8

Hit Points Hit Points (HP) represent the amount of damage a character can take before dying: they are determined by the number of hit dice (HD) the character gets at odd levels, which is found in the description of each character class later on. When the character

Character Retirement When a character reaches the Level Limit listed in his character class description, his player has two choices: he can keep on playing him with a slower advancement (XP halved) or he can roll a new character with the roll 4d6 and drop the lowest method applied on Attributes and Starting Money.

Chapter 2: Character Classes

There are six character classes in the game: the Adventurer, the Burrowlander, the Cleric, the Dwarf, the Elf and the Magic User. The Referee may invent or allow other character classes in the game, of course. What you get as an Adventurer Your HD is a d6 You have no Requirements You have no Level Limit You can use all single handed weapons You can use hide armors Adventurer (A) You also get all these Additional Features Increase your HD to d8 You can use all weapons You can use all armors and shields If you hit a creature with less HDs than yours you deal the same damage also to other creatures (for a maximum amout equal to your STR Bonus) with less HDs than yours

Magic User (MU) You also get all these Additional Features You get two more Spheres of choice You are a Type A Spellcaster Until you own an Arcane Focus (globe, staff, book or other) you add your INT Bonus to every parameter of your spells

Humans can be Adventurers (basically fighters but also classic thieves with the proper generic features), Clerics or Magic Users; they arrive on the planet cyclically thanks to a phenomenon known as Purple Tide. Burrowlanders are my version of Halflings: they dwell in houses dug between secular tree roots, dress like Ainu People (with same graphical patterns) and worship ancestors. Their origin is unknown.

Dwarves are native of the world and survivors of a Mycocalypse (chemical fallout followed by a massive mycotic infestation and plant overgrowth): for this reason they dwell underground like classic Dwarves, but with gas masks. Elves are exiled coming from a now wasted dimension called Fey Rift, they fight any kind of aberration: mutants, undead and possessed creatures.

Trade one of your additional features for one of these

Examples of Generic Features (Option) Stealth (DEX): add +2 to LF focused on secrecy and concealment Quick Fingers (DEX): add +2 to LF when pilfering or doing prestidigitation Acrobatics (DEX): add +2 to LF involving tumbling or ropewalking Keen Senses (WIS): add +2 to LF involving spotting and hearing things Device Lore (INT): add +2 to LF involving locks and traps Entertainer (WIS): add +2 to LF involving music and theatricalism Backstab: if you wear no armor heavier than leather and hits a target from behind, you deal double damage and you treat it as an open ended process (you keep on rolling and adding outcomes as long as you roll the same value on both dice) Nobody can get You are a Type B Spellcaster with a trade You are a Type C Spellcaster grants some classes (Adventurer, Burrowlander and Dwarf) a single Sphere (choose to be whether an arcane or a divine spellcaster)

Generic Features allow a sort of limited multiclassing; any class can trade 2 of his Additional Features for 1 of another class Addition Features, with some limitations: Only Elves can get You are a Type A Spellcaster with a 2:1 trade

Chapter 3: Combat Sequence

When a faction (the Referee or the players) declares his intention to start a fight, do as it follows: 1. Initiative: Each faction rolls 2d6 and sums them up (in case of tie keep on rolling until you have a winner) Faction with highest value goes first, faction with the lowest value goes second When the losing faction is over, the round starts again with the same order If a faction rolls a 2 or a 3 on 2d6, it takes no actions during the first round 2. Intent: Each character/creature does a single action (attack, cast a spell, use a skill, etc.) during the round Attack: Attacker adds his own CR to the opponents AC, then roll 1d20<=AC+CR to hit (20 is always a miss and 1 is always a success): results of 15-20 are always a fumble and attacker describes the outcome Cast a Spell: target rolls 1d20<=LF to avoid the effect (characters add a proper Attribute Bonus to LF according to the type of spell) and with a 1 he describes the spells mishap (if the caster rolls 1d20<=LF then the mishap is unharmful) Use a Skill: player rolls 1d20<=LF + Attribute Bonus to succeed, otherwise the intent doesnt happen (with a 15-20 the intent is a total failure and player describes the outcome) It measures how a PC can avoid danger (as a Saving Throw) or succeed in his actions; you add a different Attribute Bonus to the roll according to the type of scenario: If a tentacle is going to wrap you, add STR Bonus to break free. If an illusion is affecting your mind, add INT Bonus to disbelieve it. If a curse is going to struck you, add WIS Bonus to avoid it. If something is going to weaken your body, add CON Bonus to withstand it. If a trap or a blast are threatening you, add DEX bonus to dodge them. If something is affecting your emotion and behaviour, add CHA Bonus to fight it.

Luck Factor (LF)

Damage, Death and Healing

()

Armor Class (AC)

It represents how a PC can withstand phyical blows; AC ranges from 9 (no armor) to 0 (best value), and its formula is AC = Armor Bonus (Attribute Bonus) (Shield Bonus). Attribute Bonus is DEX Bonus and CON Bonus with hide armor or no armor, only CON Bonus with chainmail or platemail.

When a character/creature is hit, the amount of damage taken is subtracted from his current Hit Points; when Hit Points drop to 0, the character/creature dies. A character can be healed through magic or proper herbs (LF+(INT Bonus) to be found): in the latter hecan heal a maximum of 1d4 Hit Points lost in the last battle he has taken part.

Damage Avoidance (Trollsmyth's Shields shall be Splintered!)

Shields not only grant a bonus to AC but also can be sacrificed to reduce damage to 0: if you do that, your shield breaks and becomes useless.

Damage Reduction Combat Rating (CR)

The higher this bonus the better a PC/creature can beat his targets AC.

If your AC goes negative, its still considered 0 but any negative point counts as damage reduction.

Critical Hit

When someone rolls a natural 1 his blow deals double damage.

Chapter 4: Money and Gear

These House Rules have been used in a post apocalyptic science-fantasy setting, so the economy is not based on the classic triad (gold/silver/copper) but on different currencies: a metal piece (mp) is tenfold worth than a bone piece (bp) and hundredfold worth than a resin piece (rp). The price of items is the same of any other clone, just replace gp with mp. Type Clothes Hide Scale Metal Shield Armors and Shields AC Notes 9 Nothing special to add Theyre flexible and made 7 with animal skin Theyre made overlapping 5 scales or bone plates Theres scarcity of metal, 3 so the price is tenfold Shields reduce any AC by 1 1 point lower point

Armors can be bought in a shop or you can pay an artisan to make him craft one (at triple price) with special components granting a proper feature to the armour (for example a gorgons scale armor could grant a character a +2 bonus to LF against pietrification).

Weapons Key Small Medium Large Slashing Blunt Piercing Ranged Damage Standard Metal d4 d6 d6 d8 d8 d10 Notes It can be thrown Standard weapon It needs two hands to be held Critical Hit: if both dice show the maximum value, reroll them and add the result to the previous one (exploding dice) Critical Hit: roll 3 dice of the same type and drops the lower Critical Hit: roll dX+d(X+2) instead of 2dX Critical Hit: if both dice show the same number, add your DEX Bonus to damage Small sized creatures (like Burrowlanders) inflict less damage with weapons: d4/d6/d8 points of damage with metal weapons, d3/d4/d6 points of damage with standard weapons. Magic Equipment is rare and so cant be bought in a shop, but the Referee could create a quest to find a powerful artisan to create one item per character. Magic Equipment can grant just a +1 bonus (greater bonuses belong to artifacts), a particular effect (like a flaming sword) or both: as always in a RPGs, the only limit is in your mind. You can easily use any item/weapon table taken from any other clone.

Standard weapons are made of any material (wood, stone, bone or other) different from metal. Weapons can be made on the fly by just assembling more keys (the first three set the damage, the others affect the Critical Hit): for example a longsword is both a Medium and a Slashing weapon.

E
Normal weapon usually assemble two keys, but more advanced and rare weapons could have more than two.

Chapter 5: Character Advancement

The advancement rate is taken from the SRD, not the original game. Every class uses the same scheme, but: Adventurers and Dwarves get the fastest Combat Rank improvement, Magic Users get the slowest Adventurers and Burrowlanders need the shown XP to advance (100XP for L2, 300 XP for L3 and so on) Clerics need just 90% of the shown XP to advance (90XP for L2, 270XP for L3 and so on) Dwarves need +10% of the shown XP to advance (110XP for L2, 330XP for L3 and so on) Elves need +50% of the shown XP to advance (150XP for L2, 450XP for L3 and so on) Magic Users need +25% of the shown XP to advance (125XP for L2, 375XP for L3 and so on) Players can advance only when theyre totally safe places (like cities or towns) Once a not human class has reached his Level Limit, his player can retire (rolling a new Gifted character) or continue to play (but XP earned hereafter are halved) Characters earn a new HD each odd level

Special (Option)

+Feat +Feat +Feat +Feat +Feat

Characters earn Experience Points (XP) through their adventures in the following ways: Monsters: each defeated, avoided, lured or cheated creature grants an amount of 2HD XP (so 512XP for a 9HD monster, if HD<1 just 1XP) Collecting Treasure: 20 metal pieces means 1 XP (10:1 rate if you wanna level up a little faster) Off-combat Rolls: each successful roll grants as much XP as the LF, each failed roll grants half LF in XP XP as a Group: whenever characters act as a group, XP are earned as a whole entity and must

be divided equally (so with 4 characters a 9HD monster gives 128XP each) Solo XP: whenever a character acts totally separated from the group, he gets all XP for himself Special XP: magic items granting an XP award (like some Magical Decks) do it just for 1/20 of the shown amount.

Chapter 6: Magic
Like other games, the Fine Art of Spell Casting is made up of the following phases: Memorization: a PC can memorize only a limited number of spells in his mind (inside small cells called slots), and he needs to do it after a 8 hours period of sleep through meditation (arcane magic) or praying (divine magic) Preparation: regardless of which faction is going to act first in a round, a PC must declare hes going to cast a spell before the whole round starts Execution: the spell is cast during the PCs turn, but if an opponent hits him between Preparation and Execution phase the PC must succeed a roll on his LF + CON Bonus or the spell is wasted Characters get new spell slots according to the table below: just remember that a slot is a free space in the characters mind, not an actual spell per se.

These House Rules dont use the classic pre-generated spells but they focus on the concept of Spheres, where a single Sphere represents a specific theme or kinda narrow field of application: a Flame Sphere will focus on shaping fire and burning things an Illusion Sphere will focus on altering perception or creating hallucinations a Crow Sphere will focus on controlling crows or creating them out of nowhere a Move Sphere will focus on moving matter or altering motion a Necromancy Sphere will focus on blood, bones, life energy and corpses Divine Spellcasters get automatically a new Sphere each time they earn a new slot, Arcane Spellcasters need to find them as part of a treasure or researching

Spheres

them (one attempt per level with a roll on his LF+(INT Bonus) to succeed). When a character memorizes a Sphere, he allocates it inside a single slot which remains occupied until the spell has been cast; a memorized Sphere allows different effects, but only a specific effect can take place and must be declared during the Preparation phase (so the same Flame Sphere could be used to burn a tree or to create an opening when surrounded by fire). If a character casts a spell upon himself or other allies he must succeed in a roll on his LF + Attribute Bonus (WIS for divine and INT for arcane), but if the target is unwilling the Referee will roll under the creatures LF to avoid the spells effect (as already said in the Combat chapter). Only Clerics and Magic Users add their Attribute Bonus, while other classes roll just on their LF.

Area of Effect Personal 5ft. 15ft. 30ft. 50ft. 100ft. 150ft. 200ft.

Effect: no spell damage means no die roll, spell can affect up to a limited amount of selected targets. Duration: instantaneous spells are usually blasts, but they also can create durable simple objects (like wooden) Range: Contact means the spell can be cast only at very short range, from touch (0 ft.) to a maximum of 10ft. (the reach of a lance) Area of Effect: Personal means the spell targets a single creature or object, otherwise the spell targets everything inside the area.

Just remember that the memorized Sphere is always dominant over the other Sphere, so that its theme affects the other ones theme. Lets imagine a Magic User with two Spheres (Earth and Water). If he wants to merge Earth (memorized) with Water, then he could create a safe path to cross a river If he wants to merge Water (memorized) with Earth, then he could turn earth to mud with water. Lets considere the same Magic User, but with other Spheres (Flames and Illusion). If he wants to merge Illusion (memorized) with Flames, then he could create an illusionary wall of flame everybody can see and which burns at contact. If he wants to merge Flames (memorized) with Illusion, then he could create a real campfire looking like that inside the Area of Effect but only a bush (spreading no light) outside of it.

The entity of the spells effect depends on the table above: whenever a character casts a spell, he must combine 2 columns from the SL0 line and 2 columns from the actual SL line. Lets imagine a Level 1 Magic User with an Ice Sphere memorized in a level 1 slot: Solution A: he throws an ice dagger dealing d3 damage (SL0 Effect) in an instant (SL0 Duration) up to a distance of 13ft. (SL1 Range) able to blast a 5ft. radius area (SL1 AoE) Solution B: he creates a dagger (SL0 AoE) for melee combat (SL0 Range) dealing d4 damage (SL1 Effect) for a duration of 1 round (SL0 Effect) It is also possible to merge a memorized Sphere with another Sphere chosen on the spot: if a character does it, he gets a malus on his LF (or a dual bonus on targets LF) equal to twice the memorized Sphere slot level.

As a final note any spellcaster can cast freely a single unharmful spell (like a minor healing) with all SL0 parameters once between two encounters.

Chapter 7: Monsters and Options

Monsters are exactly the same shown in other clones, except for the following changes: Their HDs must be halved (rounding down the value, minimum 1 HP) Monsters with less than 1HD grant 1XP, monsters with more than 1HD grant 2HD XP They must have a descending AC to be used with these House Rules They have a size parameter Creature Size Size Example Small Goblin Medium Man Large Ogre Huge Stone Giant Giant Storm Giant Colossal Dragon Titanic Mountain perform a limited number of times (according to the Attribute Bonus) per level.

The effect could be a re-roll, an automatic success or an unquestionable statement: that means the Referee has the right to veto upon its definition (but not upon its application). STR: these Feats cover combat, athletics, muscles Example: Enjoy my punchs lullaby! Effect: with a single punch your character can put to sleep a target creature (Large size or smaller) INT: these Feats cover knowledge, arcane magic, theories, legends and general lore Example: Ive heard in a tavern this story about.. Effect: your character spouts lore about a true rumor, like a magic axe hidden in a specific tower WIS: these Feats cover awareness, senses, divine magic Example: I spy, with my little eye.. Effect: thanks to a minor form of clairvoyance your character knows exactly whats inside a room CON: these Feats cover resilience, healing, personal anatomy Example: My granny was a Troll! Effect: your character is fully healed after a 8 hours rest DEX: these Feats cover speed, movement, handskill, crafting skill Example: Catch me, if you can! Effect: your character can leave behind his followers and reach a safe place CHA: these Feats cover fascination, command, verbal communication Example: Heavenly Wink Effect: your character has a huge success with guys

Two Weapon Fighting

Your character can fight holding one (Small or Medium) weapon in each hand and can roll twice a round until the sum of both damage dice is smaller or equal than the lowest between DEX and STR. (For example a PC with DEX 9 and STR 16 can only wield two weapons with d4 as damage die).

Theyve been inspired by posts from FrDave and Andreas Davour. When a character reaches the proper levels (3rd and its multiples) his player chooses an Attribute (which roughly fixes the area of application) and creates a specific larger-than-life deed his character can
