Characters begin at Level 1.Fighters wear any kind of armour and use all shields. They have a +3 bonus to Physical and add +1 to all attack and damage rolls. This increases by +1 at 4th level and every four levels onRogues can use medium armour. They have a +3 bonus to Subterfuge. If they successfully Sneak (usually sub+DEX, but depends on situation) up on a foe they can add their Subterfuge skill rank to the damage of their first attack, this is automatic when flanking.  Rogues also gain Evasion.Magi wear no armour. They can cast arcane spells, and gain a +3 bonus to Knowledge.  They can summon a familiar or improved familiar for free.  They may keep a summoned monster summoned as long as they want but this keeps the amount of HP's used gone.  They can only summon one like this at a time or must use a familiar.Clerics can wear light armour and use shields (except tower). They cast divine spells and gain +3 bonus to Communication. A Cleric can Turn Undead with a successful Magic Attack. DC is the current Hit Points of the Undead. If the DC is exceeded by 10 it is destroyed. This can be used (2 + Level + MIND Bonus) times per day. This can also be used to heal hp by the amount of the attack to a single target or half the amount rolled to all in a radius of 50 ft.SkillsThere are just 4 skills : Physical, Subterfuge, Knowledge and Communication. Roll higher than the given Difficulty Class to succeed.All classe except Rogues must pick one skill at -3.Skill rank = your level + any bonus due to your class or race.Skill roll = d20 + skill rank + whatever stat bonus is most applicable to the use + situation modifiersFor example, Climbing would use Physical + STR bonus. Dodging a falling rock is Physical + DEX bonus. Finding a trap is Subterfuge + MIND bonus. Disabling a trap is Subterfuge + DEX bonus.Note that there are no “saving throws” in this game; use Physical + STR or DEX bonus for Fortitude and Reflex saves. Saving against magic (Will save) is usually MIND bonus + Knowledge.MagicMagi can cast any arcane spell, and Clerics any divine spell, with a spell level equal or below 1/2 their class level, rounded up. They have access to all arcane spells in the SRD spell list.  Metamagic works just as if you are casting a spell of the appropriate level.  Such as a Silent Fireball would just be a level 4 spell.Casting a spell of any kind costs Hit Points like Subdual Damage. The cost is 1 - double the level of the spell being cast: Spell Level    0    1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9       HP Cost    *    1    3    5    7    9    11    13    15    17     This loss cannot be healed normally but is recovered after 8 hours rest. There is no need to memorize spells in advance.Casters get extra points to cast with equal to their MIND bonus.The Difficulty Class (DC) for all spells is 10 + Caster Level + Caster's MIND bonusMagi must use a Staff or Wand as an Arcane Focus, Clerics must use a Shield as their Divine Focus/Holy Symbol.  Spells cannot be cast without them.Fly Spell must have a Broom, Carpet, or Bed.  Flying requries ride checks and acts as if the player is mounted.Teleport works as a Port Key.  2 Mundane Objects must be set in certain places and must be outdoors.  It takes 10 minutes casting time to set each item (20 minutes total).  Dimension Door takes a full round action to cast and requires throwing a stone to the location wished to Dimension Door to.  The location must also be within line of effect.Once a caster knows an Energy Type and a Spell Area type, they may mix and match their types to form new spells when casting Evocation spells.  This works as a "Free" Metamagic effect.  For Example a Cone of Cold and a Fireball can make a Coldball.CombatHit Points = STR Stat + 1d8/Level. If HP reach 0, unconscious and near death. Further damage directly reduces STR. If that reaches 0, death.  Fighters get 1d12 per level.Roll d12 + DEX bonus for initiative order every round.  A result of 12 gives you a +2 luck bonus this round.Melee attack bonus = STR bonus + LevelMissile attack bonus = DEX bonus + LevelMagic attack bonus = MIND bonus + LevelAdd attack bonus to d20 roll. If higher than your opponent's Armour Class (AC), it’€™s a hit. Natural 20 is automatically a critical doing maximum damage.Roll 1d12 on the Critical Chart1-2 Nothing3 - offhand is hit, -2 Dex and can't use offhand.

Fighters and Rogues can wield 2 light weapons and attack with both in a round if they take a -2 penalty on all attack rolls that round. Rapiers count as light weapons, but you cannot wield two rapiers at the same time.Add STR bonus to Melee damage, x2 for 2-handed weapons.
