    Character Weight & Height I What's your favourite implementation?

    It's something I have been thinking about for a bit and I realized that most of the games I have played don't really do anything with these aspects mechanically (namely DND 5e & PF1e/2e) and even in many of the system which I have read its not something which ever really comes up which got me...

    Ways of players getting Ability Scores - I require some help!

    Yeah, my bad. Again. Not really used to talking about TTRPGs or the like outside of DND or Pathfinder with friends where they know what edition I mean by just starting a topic on it. The version I am referring to is the 1st edition from 1984. I haven't taken a look at later versions yet.

    Ways of players getting Ability Scores - I require some help!

    I have been looking around for awhile for systems that would accomplish the feel or theme that I am trying to achieve with my "little" project, I sadly didn't really find one that was ever to my liking on paper, but I tend to be a bit... Perfectionistic, or perhaps picky is the better word, when...

    Ways of players getting Ability Scores - I require some help!

    I am just straight up making my own system as of right now with certain parts of it being inspired or taken from other systems. I am at the beginning of getting things down for character creation, so a lot of things are not even set in concrete. In the case of what DND Edition, I am referring to...

    Ways of players getting Ability Scores - I require some help!

    I do kind of have something kind of like this which is called Stalker's Grace. "Stalker’s Grace allows you to reroll a failed die roll twice and lets you take the best roll out of the three. Stalker’s Grace can be found in the game world in the form of dog tags which belonged to former Stalkers...

    Ways of players getting Ability Scores - I require some help!

    Yeah, I am definitely leaning away from that as I feel like that could result in some issues unless your group works well together and there isn't some sort of friend favouritism as that alone can result in massive issues down the line. For now as RAW I just have it as each player rolling the...

    The lifepath system is something I will look into as that sounds like a rather interesting implementation of a ability score rolling system and something like that would fit quite well as there is a focus on what the character one is creating did in the past. Thanks for pointing that out to me!

    That definitely sounds like a pretty neat idea to have a safety net, as you called it. Players could simply roll a additional 1D4 each, the result of which are points they can freely put into any of the scores in question. Alternatively, and that might be a bit more of a mess, the GM could roll...

    Hey! I am currently making my own TTRPG set in the 21st century which is conceptually inspired by books, movies and games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R, Metro, Escape From Tarkov, Last of Us, The Road and a few more and focuses heavily on harsh survival, semi-realistic aspects. While I am making this, it...
