While I still will use the normal rules in play, I have now the right rules... ehm, guidelines for a story I plan to write. There are writers, who write only realistic stories and there are other, who write whatever looks appropriate. Obviously, a story using magic as a element can't be fully realistic, only look realistic, and for that I simply need not only nature's laws, but magic's laws and the correlation between the two. Applying the hit point-system would only result in fights, where at first the hit points are reduced and then the combatants die a quick death. Yes, I could simple write want I want, but then it would be completely arbitrary like that: "The big rock starts to float 3 meters high, about 15 meters the path along, while it transforms to a big elephant. The suddenly existing animal trumpets loud, before it falls to the earths and crumbles to stones and dust." Following Murphy'S Law somewhat. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> Okay, enough with the rant... Some comments:-The Critical Threat Range table: The entry "15-20" should be something like "Every other".-An error in the Bypass Heavy Armor entry at the Critical Hit Effects: You wrote "medium armor" instead "heavy armor".-"Apply your target’s damage reduction or energy resistance (if applicable) to the attack’s damage." Do I understand it right: If I have DR 10/magic, then any applicable damage will be reduced by 10 points?-How do you handle hardness?-What are the effects of Fast Healing and Regeneration?-There aren't examples for every situation, you cover with your rules.-In which product Mongoose used your rules?-The storyteller system is used in Vampire: The Maskerade or Werewolf: The Apocalypse, for example. I hope I didn't overlook that someone asked or mentioned anything above.</blockquote>
