Project Istari

Project Istari

Project Istari (working title) is an in-work TTRPG project. This is an attempt to make a very effective, streamlined yet having a ton of options, fun, and versatile TTRPG.

Work-In Progress Mechanics

Items

Certain Items would be called out and have explicit statistics and abilities, both in combat and out. Other, less important Items will either be assumed to be had by everyone, or grouped into Packs, such as a Camping Packs (Undecided on which).

Stats

Every creature will have six Stats.

• Might. Might is a Creature's physical strength and endurance. A Hero has HP equal to 4 + their Might. HP is the number of Damage a creature can take before suffering a Wound.
• Agility. Agility is a Creature's ability to finely manipulate objects and accuracy. You gain a number of Initiative Points equal to your Agility (minimum 1) at the start of each Round in Combat.
• Speed. Speed is a Creature's alacrity, expeditiousness, and ability to move. At the start of your Turn, you gain Dash Points equal to your Speed. Dash Points act as Movement Points in most scenarios.
• Lore. Lore is a Creature's learned knowledge of the world. You have a number of Knowledge Points, equal to your Lore, you can spend these Points to learn tidbits of information, and regain them over the course of a Rest.
• Instinct. Instinct is a Creature's gained experience of the world. You have a number of Reactions every Round equal to your Instinct (minimum 1).
• Resolve. Resolve is a Creature's force of personality and will-power. At the end of a Rest, a creature can attempt to Recover from a number of Lingering Wounds who's Recovery Conditions are met equal to their Resolve.

Each Stat starts at 1, increasing or decreasing based on your Lineage choice. You also increase four different Stats by 1.

Finally, at the end of Character creation, you increase a single Stat by 2, and three Stats by 1. You cannot increase a Stat multiple times with the same source, for instance if your Might increases from being a Dwarf, you can't use your Free increase on Might, you have to use it on a different Stat.

Stat Increases

Whenever your Hero Levels up, you increase one of your Stats by 1.
Stats have a maximum that will be determined at some point in the future.

Attacking

When a Creature Attacks, it rolls an Attack Die and adds a Stat determined by the Weapon/Spell/Attack. The Target rolls its Defense Die and adds a Stat determined by the Weapon/Spell/Attack either chosen by the Attacker or the Defender (determined by the Weapon/Spell/Attack). The Defender takes Damage equal to the excess of the Attack total over the Defense total.

Energy

Every Hero has a pool of 6 Energy, which recharges whenever they finish a Rest. A Hero's Energy maximum increases by 1 at Level 5, 10, 15, and 20.

Checks

When you make a Check, you roll a d10, add the appropriate Stat and other modifiers, and use the result to determine the outcome.

Weakness and Resistance

Some things give you a Weakness or Resistance to certain Traits, such as Fire Weakness or Fire Resistance. Weaknesses and Resistances are always accompanied by a value.
If you have Resistance, you add that value to all Defense Rolls you make against an Attack with the Trait you have Resistance for.
If you have Weakness, you subtract that value from all Defense Rolls you make against an Attack with the Trait you have Resistance for.

Skills

You can gain Skill Proficiencies, mainly from your History choices, and sometimes your Lineage. When you make a Check that would involve a Skill that you have Proficiency in, you double the Stat that you are adding to the Check (minimum +2 total). Each Stat apart from Lore has 3 Skills generally relating to it, however there are many scenarios where Stats can be used with other Stats, some examples of which will be shown in the description of each Skill.

• Athletics (Might): Athletics represents the general physical abilities of a Creature, such as climbing, running, jumping, etc.
• Endurance (Might): Endurance represents the physical endurance of a Creature, such as enduring a storm, traveling a long distance, or staying on the ball without rest.
• Intimidation (Might): Intimidation represents the ability to coerce others. This is one of the most common Skills to use other Stats for. Might would represent being physically imposing or maybe breaking a chair over your head to startle your target. If you use Resolve, you might try to break your target's will by your own iron resilience.
• Acrobatics (Agility): Acrobatics represents the general whole-body dexterity and motor-function of a Creature, used for acts such as swinging from branch to branch or doing backflips. Using Might for Acrobatics might be used for parkour.
• Dexterity (Agility): Dexterity represents a Creature's fine motor skills, used for acts like picking a lock, or pickpocketing someone. Using Resolve for this Skill might represent performing mental gymnastics to try and prove a point that isn't obviously true.
• Stealth (Agility): Stealth represents a Creature's ability to silence their movements.
• Chase (Speed): Chase represents a Creature's ability to move quicker than normally possible and serves often as a Contested Check, allowing Creature's to see who moves quicker, such as when trying to race to an artifact.
• Escape (Speed):
• Reflex (Speed):
• Judgement (Instinct):
• Search (Instinct):
• Tracking (Instinct):
• Deception (Resolve):
• Diplomacy (Resolve):
• Grit (Resolve):

Lore Skills are often gained from either Feats or Histories. They are far more specific, such as Nobility Lore, Smithing Lore, or a Lore about a specific city. These allow your Character to recall information about the specific information you have a Lore for much more easily.

The chosen Creature or Item cannot weigh more than a number of kilograms equal to your Level.

However, the illusion is incapable of directly causing Damage.
  

When you create the illusion, choose sight, taste and smell, hearing, or touch. The illusion is imperceptible to the chosen sense, but is perceptible and apparently real to all other senses.

Every Action a Creature spends investigating or otherwise inspecting the illusion, it makes a Contested Perception Check against your Resolve Check, determining the illusion as fake and perceiving through it on a succesful Check.
