character and class level will be equal.
Example 1: Kress is a level 7 warrior, it is his only class, so his
character level is 7 and his class level is 7.

Example 2: Eldin is a level 4 warrior, and a level 3 initiate. His

two class levels are 4 and 3, but his character level is 7.

Add Health Points (HP)

Your character will gain additional HP based on the class you choose to
level up.

Increase Defences
Defences scale with level, increasing your defences each time you gain a
new character level. Class defence bonuses do not change.

Increase Skill Bonuses

Your skill bonuses are equal to 1/2 your character level rounded down, so
they will increase by +1 every time you reach an even character level.

Select Talents or Feats

At each odd class level, you will be able to select a talent from one of the
talent trees available to the class in which you increased in level. At every
even level you gain in a class, you will be able to choose a bonus feat from
that classes list of bonus feats.
You also gain bonus feats at every odd character level. These bonus feats
are not restricted to class, allowing you to select any feat for which you
qualify.

Increase Ability Scores

At 4th level and every fourth level thereafter, you will choose two ability
scores to increase by +1 point. You may not increase a single score by +2.
No one ability score may be increased beyond 20 in this way.

Multiclassing
Whenever you level up, you may choose to take levels in another class.
This expands your characters versatility but limits your progress in other
classes in which you have levels. When you choose to multiclass, you do
not gain the normal 1st level perks.
You gain the classes HP per level (as opposed to the normal starting HP of
that class)
Feats: You only gain 1 of the classes starting feats. Any starting feats
from your multiclass that you do not take, are treated as bonus feats for that
class.
Skills: You do not gain any additional trained skills but do gain the
class skills as trainable (via the skill training feat).
Defences: You gain the classes defence bonuses, but they do not stack
with your current class defence bonuses, taking the higher the numbers in
each defence.
Initiative: You take the higher of the initiative dice (Rogue/Ranger would
use the rangers 1d8 initiative).
Talents: You may only select talents from the class you are levelling up
at that level.
Character Levels: Character levels are not affected by multiclassing.

Recovering Mana Points

After an 8 hour rest, a character regains an amount of MP equal to their

Spells in Melee
Casting spells while in an enemy's threatened area, provokes an attack of
opportunity, unless you choose to take a -5 penalty to your spellcraft check.
Should the attack hit, the spell automatically fails, and the MP is wasted.
Each additional enemy, whose threatened area you occupy, imposes
an additional -5. Some feats, talents, and other class abilities, such
as the combat casting feat, may lessen these penalties.

Poisons
Poisons are deadly concoctions, typically used by agents or assassins to
nefarious ends. Made with concentrated doses of lethal venom from
various beasts, or toxins from deadly plant-life, poisons are either ingested,
inhaled, or contracted via damage or even contact. Once contracted,
poisons attack the infected individual’s fortitude defence at the beginning
of each turn, until cured via an antidote, or a medicine check. Damage from
poisons is unaspected, ignoring all forms of DR.
Additionally, status effects imposed by poison are persistent, and cannot
be removed until the poison is removed.
Poisons weigh 1/10 bulk.

-Status Effects- Zombify
A zombified creature suffers damage from spells, abilities or items that

item. A creature may be afflicted by multiple status effects at once, but no zombified creatures do not heal
one status effect may stack with itself. In the case of poisons and curses, from rest.
where there are multiple variations, multiple poisons and curses may affect
a creature, but multiple sources of the same poison or curse does not stack.

Blind
All targets have total concealment from blinded creatures.

Confusion
At the start of a confused creature's turn, there is a 60% chance (60 or less
on d%) that they spend their turn attacking the nearest ally (or themselves
if no allies are within line of sight), moving up to that ally if necessary.
Otherwise, they may act normally.

Curse
A number of powerful abilities may bestow a curse upon a creature.
Curses are persistent effects that may only be removed via ambrosia, or
a powerful spell. (See Curses Pg.71)

Disease
A diseased creature always treats its current HP as its maximum HP and
cannot take recovery actions.

Paralysis
A paralysed creature has a 50% chance (50 or less on d%) of taking no
actions on their turn and becoming flat-footed.

Petrification
A petrified creature is flat-footed and may take no actions on their turn, but
not helpless.

Poison
There are a variety of poisons with varying effects. When a creature is hit
by a poisoned attack, they automatically become poisoned. The poison
attacks the infected creatures fort defence at the beginning of each of their
turns, until removed via medicine, items, or magick. (See Poisons Pg.67)

Silence
A silenced creature may not use any skills that require vocalization, such
as spellcraft, perform instrument, perform oratory, persuasion, etc.

Sleep
A sleeping creature can take no actions on their turn and is flat-footed.
Damage from an attack or spell wakes the creature, unless the damage is
from a poison or effect that was applied to the target before sleeping. At
the end of each of the creature's turns, it has a 25% chance (25 or less on
d%) of waking.

Slow
A slowed creature’s movement is reduced by 3/4 (4 to 1, 6 to 2, etc.), to a
minimum of 1 square, and they suffer a -10 penalty to both acrobatics and
athletics checks.

Toad
A creature under the effects of the toad status, suffers a -10 penalty to all
defences, skill checks, and damage rolls, and are treated as tiny for the sake
of size requirements. Additionally, you gain no benefit for equipment while
under the effect of toad, and may use no class features, talents, spells, feats,
or other abilities.
Curses
Much like the poisoned status, the cursed status has a variety of different
effects that fit this particular descriptor.

Curse of Agony
A target cursed with agony loses all damage-based immunities and
resistances and is treated as weak to all forms of damage.

Curse of Exhaustion
A target cursed with exhaustion suffers a -10 penalty to all defences.

Curse of Misfortune
A target cursed with misfortune must reroll all skill checks, keeping the
lower result. If the cursed creature would be entitled to rerolls, they may
not do so.

Curse of Withering
A target cursed with withering may never have more than 1/2
its total HP. This is calculated off your base HP and is not
affected by temporary HP caps imposed or granted by status
effects or buffs.

Dim
A target cursed with dim may never have more than 1/2
its total MP.

Doom
A target that becomes doomed, immediately rolls its initiative
die. The target automatically dies within a number of turns equal
to the result of the roll.
Example: A lich curses a rogue with doom, the rogue rolls a 1
on its initiative die. The rogue will die at the start of the
liches next turn.

Liches develop many different traits during their long existences,

mortals seek to obtain for themselves.
Lycanthropy: The feral spirit of the wolf grips the mind of the infected,
and twists their body into savage, bloodthirsty beasts.
Vampyrism: The blood kiss, responsible for creating the dreaded
vampyres that plague the night, and feed on the living.
When a creature gains an affliction, they gain its base ability adjustments
and features. Afflictions also grant access to unique talent trees otherwise
inaccessible to characters. You may choose to take these talents in place of
other class talents as you level, unlocking new powers and abilities related
to the affliction of which you have. Afflictions grant even greater power to
those who succumb to them entirely. Once afflicted, you are immune to all
other afflictions.

Lichdom
Lichdom is attained by only the most vile and malevolent necromancers,
transforming their very body into a vessel of death and decay, all for the
promise of true immortality. Liches are among the most feared and
powerful undead known to the world, feared even by the dreaded vampyre,
for even they are not beyond the lich’s domination.

The Ritual
To become a lich, one must master the necromantic powers necessary to
transfer their life essence, their soul, into a phylactery. This is no simple
task, requiring you to prepare a magick ritual circle, as well as three special
items, either made with crafting or found on dangerous quests. First, a
personally crafted phylactery in which to transfer your soul (an amulet,
ring, mask, or other artifact). Second, a death mantle to avoid the true
death during your soul’s transfer. And lastly, a necromancer’s athame,
as your death is required to free the spirit from its mortal bonds. The
soul binding blade will hold your soul until the transferring ritual is
completed. However, even when these requirements are met, there is
no guarantee of survival. Roll your spellcraft check to determine the
chances of success.
DC 25- 25%
DC 30- 50%
DC 35- 75%
DC 40- 99%
If your spellcraft did not meet the minimum DC, you immediately fail the
ritual and die. Otherwise, roll your percentage dice. Should your roll
exceed the percentage value determined by your spellcraft check, you fail
the ritual and die. If you successfully complete the ritual, you become a
lich and gain the following traits.

Ability Scores: Liches gain a +2 to their Int, Mnd, Chr. As undead

creatures’ liches do not have a Vit score and use their Chr to calculate HP,
fortitude defence, and any other spells or abilities that normally utilize Vit.

Rejuvenation: If a lich is destroyed, it’s phylactery begins to restore its

body nearby, taking 1d10 days for the lich to rise once more (though
without any gear that was lost with its previous body). Should the
rejuvenating body be destroyed during the process, the phylactery
merely begins the process anew. However, if a lich’s phylactery is
destroyed, the lich immediately dies.

Immunities: Liches gain all of the undead immunities as well as,

immunity to colde. Additionally, Liches gain natural DR, treating
their character level as their beast level, for this purpose.
Death Sentence: Liche's will alone, can sap the very life from a mortal
creature. You may make a spellcraft check against the will defence of a
