The Vancian magic irks me a bit. I prefer the Tome of Battle system of Encounter/Daily/Stance. That's why I'm trying to make my own RPG system.

Unfortunately, the 3rd party content is not free. And I'm afraid supporting older editions won't happen due to the amount of work this would require. Seeing as there are four eras to consider - there's the 1350's (OGB era), 1360's (AD&D era), 1370's (3e era) and 1485 (4e era), and as yet...

Bump. Have the idea for the story, but haven't found time to write it yet.

Bump. Levels were removed. Classes and skills are done. Will post them ASAP.

A friend suggested I change the skill system to "bullet"-based one, y'know, where you upgrade the skills not by ranks as in D&D, but rather in "stages" - novice, master etc. Is it doable?

Any input? I'd like to expand a bit & write a short story set in the world - all before New Year's Eve...

@ up: I'll look Hollow World up. And I like Underdark 4e - even if I don't like 4e in general. My friends want the deities to have Polish names (since the project is in Polish). I find it silly. For the same reason, I don't want the deities to have English names - not gonna name a female...

What "shell" would you use then? D&D (and it's various variants) are the systems I'm most familliar with. Speaking of hp, there's variant rules with Wound Points, damage save and what not.

4e has a per-encounter system, but too complex for my tastes. And doesn't allow multiclassing. And feels like a tactical (miniatures) game, not a RPG. And it does necessitate splatbooks and erratas and char builder and D&D Insider... So no. I want something that has the best things from the...

No, but Planescape was an exception and I don't want to make a second Planescape.

I want something that: a) does not require my players to own a lot of splatbooks b) has less tables and "off-one's-head" numbers than D&D c) has fighters-types and wizard-types as nearly equal d) is more realistic (alias it avoids what my friends termed "peeling a potato" - 1 hp of damage, 1 hp...

I'd rather not make it a plane. Planes tend to be less important than settings. Keep the suggestions coming, folks! Right now I'm working on deities (as the discussions about the 3 Beasts and the real-world stuff has died out).

Bump. Any comments?

http://treskri.wikidot.com/mechanika-dla-treskri Everything done up until now. It's in Polish, but Google Translate does it's job well: http://translate.google.com/translate?ie=UTF-8&sl=auto&tl=en&u=treskri.wikidot.com/mechanika-dla-treskri English translation to come when it's finished (I...

Thanks. Any further tips?

The temperatures I gave are the minimums. My friends were convinced 25 degrees Celsius is too hot for the elves and fey to be comfortable (I picked the temps to explain their tendency for... err... skimpy clothing...) and that at over 30 normal creatures would self-combust. How would they know...

1) Water does exist - maybe not plentiful, but enough for the plants and animals to live. 2) I tried, but they say the setting must be logical and realistic. The elves (and fey) came here through a portal from Faerie, which collapsed. They believe their goddess brought them here. They (and the...

Indeed, the site *is* laggy. So much that I feared I wouldn't be able to register, let alone post...

A few weeks ago, I have started creating an underground world, called Treskri. I decided to post here since the WotC forums which I used to frequent are almost dead. The major features of the world: - based on my own mechanics (which I'll post in a moment) - no surface, it's only the...
