[QUOTE="Tagnik, post: 3958744, member: 7982"] OK I Finished typing all my stuff out and Copy and Pasted it from Notepad into here. This is basically the rules for my campaign and is based off of Ry's E6 and Mutants and Masterminds. I have general rules for a Classless D&D then I have my campaign specific House Rules, such as Teleport being modified, and Fly requiring a Broom, etc. Character Creation in General Point Buy System based off Mutants and Masterminds. DM selects Campaign's Power Level based off 1 - 20. Level 1 starts with 15 points while level 20 ends with 300 points. It scales 15 points per level with level 6 being 90 points and level 10 being 150 points. You use these Power Points to buy your characters ability scores, attack bonuses, character features, etc. Ability Scores 1 per point (start at 10, max is 18, can be lowered below 10 to raise another stat.) Attack Bonus 3 per point (max is level) Defense Bonus 2 per point (max is level) Feats 2 per feat Weakness +10 Power Points (see M&M Rulebook) Class abilities 3 per ability (anything that doesn't qualify as a feat) Hit Dice First you select the Hit Dice you wish to use for each Power Levels you have. Each power level uses a d4 for free. At first level you get max hit dice X3, and at each level you roll and take the result or half the hit dice, whichever is higher. d6 - 2 points per level d8 - 3 points per level d10- 4 points per level d12- 5 points per level Proficiencies Everyone is proficient in weapons as a Wizard to start and in no armor or shields. Simple Weapons 2 points Light Armor 2 points, Medium 3 points, Heavy 4 points Martial Weapons 3 points Light Shields 2 points, Heavy 3 points, all Shields 4 points Class Abilities All class abilities cost 3 points each. To buy the class ability you must be able to attain it within the character level limits. IE a Barbarian's Damage Reduction 1/- can only be reached by Power Level 7+ campaign. Class abilities that can be found as feats only cost 2 points, such as Sneak Attack or Favored Enemy (Unearthed Arcana) Some class abilities can be upgraded for less by just paying 1 point per upgrade. IE Barbarian's rage 1/day to 2/day, or his Trap Sense ability. EXCEPTION: Sneak Attack is bought at 2 points per d6 and has a max of half your level rounded down. Characters with Sneak Attack feats equal to half their level must be 4 Power Levels higher than a character with Improved Uncanny Dodge to Flank them. Prestige Class Abilities To purchase class abilities from a Prestige class, you must meet all the minimum requirements of that prestige class. IE a power level 10 character wanting to hide in plain site would be able to use the Shadowdancer's requirements to meet it, as the Assassin's and Ranger's is too high level. Spell Casting You must choose which base class you are casting as. EX: Sorcerer, Paladin, etc. This defines whether its divine or arcane and which ability scores are used. You must first purchase the levels of spells before you can purchase the number of spells per day. There are 3 different spell casting progressions. Low, Mid, and High. Low is as a Paladin, Mid as a bard or Duskblade, or high as a Sorcerer/Wizard etc. Low is 4 Points per Spell Level Mid is 6 Points per Spell Level High is 8 Points per Spell Level Once you purchase your spell levels (Cantrips do not count), you may purchase your spells per day. The spells per day per level are the maximum allowed for a level 20 caster (IE 6 1st level spells for a Sorcerer). Your caster level is determined by the number of spells per day to reach the next caster level. IE a sorcerer who can cast 6 first level spells and 3 second level spells has a caster level of 4. To reach 5 he must purchase another second level spell per day. For 2 points a caster may learn all cantrips if available for his casting class. If a spontaneous caster, you use maximum spells known as a 20th level caster. Divine casters emit auras as a Cleric. Saves Saving throws cost 1 point each and max is as a good saving throw by level. IE a max of 5 at level 6. Skills All skills are class skills. You purchase a skill Pool, that works as your skill points per level. IE for 2 points you get 2 skill points + Int Modifier per level. etc. It is not multiplied by 4 at first level. DC's The DC's of class abilities that use character level work as normal. Class abilities that use Class level use Half your Character level rounded down. DC's from 5 level PRC's that say per PrC level is maxed at 5. Auras and Invocations These cost the same as class abilities, 3 points, and max known are as per level of the class you've chosen them from.; but you must buy each aura known individually. Your Aura's level (+1, +3, etc) is dependant on the number of aura's you know. TBo9S is available only through the 2 Martial Feats Race Race is chosen as normal. Races with level adjustments are bought with 15 points per Level Adjustment. Monster races are bought by buying up the hit dice, chosing the class skills and paying 2 or 3 points per Monster Class ability respectively. Ititerative Attacks When BAB of +6 has been paid, it can either be raised to +7 or add a secondary attack at +1. This attack can be bought up to your BAB. IE a +6/+6.

Material Costs are assumed in the price unless its made of a special material. Magical Armor and Shields Mage Armor and the bonus given from Magical Armor adds to Touch AC. The magic bonus given to shields acts as a Damage Reduction for Spells that cause damage, such as Magic Missle and Fireball, etc. Armor Points / Damage Reduction Armor has Damage Reduction based on armor type. The total amount of damage a suit of armor can take is 10x's its AC bonus + any magical bonus.
