None of them are supernatural. More in Chapter 2 – Races.AlignmentThere are no alignment rules at all.Paths and CareersInstead of classes and prestige classes, characters in Warheart choose their life path and later a career. Most of paths and careers don’t have supernatural abilities. More in Chapter 3 – Paths and Careers .SkillsClass skills are renamed to favored skills. Some skills are modified and there is couple of new skills in Chapter 4 – Skills.FeatsMany feats are not used anymore. Some feats are modified and there is couple of new feats in Chapter 5 – Feats.Fate PointsFate points can be used to save a PC’s very life and can be considered last resort points. Fate points are described in Chapter 6 - Campaign.InsanityThese rules simulate traumatic experience. Characters can gain various minor or major disorders. Insanity is fully explained in Chapter 6 – Campaign.EquipmentIn Chapter 7 – Equipment there are new armor and weapon tables and also some new items. Armor can be made of pieces that cover only part of body.CombatCombat rules are expanded. Fighting is more deadly and characters have more tactical options. Characters have fewer hit points and armor serves as damage reduction. Multiple attacks are removed, characters gain bonus to damage and critical threat range instead. Attacks of opportunity are removed. Critical hits work different, adding damage dice, rather than multiplying damage but can be more deadly and can strike specific part of body. Characters can target specific parts of their opponents’ bodies and disable limbs. Defense roll is used instead of Armor Class. Characters that are reduced to 0 hit points suffer debilitating deadly hit. More in Chapter 8 - Combat.MagicThe spellcasting system is completely remade. Caster doesn’t need to memorize spells anymore. Instead he uses his Spellcraft skill to cast spells „on the fly“. Both clerics and wizards use the same spell system and the same primary ability (Int). Spellcasting is fatiguing and each cast spell gives caster fatigue points. Magic is a pretty dangerous business and often bad things can happen. See Chapter 9 – Magic and Chapter 10 - Spells.</blockquote>
