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 (IP) equal to your Agility + 1 at the start of each Round in Combat. (There will be better written rules for how Initiative works, but basically you spend your IP, whoever spends the most goes first, and any leftover roll over to the next round.)
• Speed. Speed is a creature's alacrity, expeditiousness, and ability to move. At the start of your turn, you gain an amount of Movement equal to your Speed.
• Lore. Lore is a creature's learned knowledge of the world. You have a number of Knowledge Points (KP), equal to your Lore, you can spend these Points to learn tidbits of information, and regain them over the course of a Rest.
• Wit. Wit is a creature's gained experience of the world and out of the box thinking. You have a number of Reactions every Round equal to 1 + your Wit, with a minimum of 1.
• Spirit. Spirit 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 it meets.

Each Stat starts at 1, you increase and decrease certain Stats based on your Lineage choice, you might also increase certain Stats from your choice of Past. 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 of 5 at 1st Level, 6 from 2nd to 6th Level, a maximum of 8 from 7th Level to 12th Level, a maximum of 10 from 13th Level to 18th Level, and a maximum of 12 from 19th Level to 20th Level.

Attacking

When a creature Attacks, it targets one of the Stats determined by the Weapon its using, it then rolls a die determined by its Weapon and adds a Stat (usually Might or Agility) to the Roll, the target then rolls its Defense Die (determined by its class, armor, etc.) and adds the Stat you targeted. Something happens with the excess the Attacker gets from the target's defense, most likely building up to getting a wound.

Energy

Every creature has a pool of 6 Energy, which recharges whenever it finishes a Rest or maybe some other time. A creature's Energy pool gains a maximum increase whenever it reaches Level 5, 10, 15, and 20.

Spells

Spells will scale, so that signature spells you get at 1st Level are just about as viable as the new Spells you get at max Level. Spells have 5 Levels, and all spells are raised to the highest Level.
Full-Casters unlock 1st Level Spells at 1st Level, 2nd Level Spells at 5th Level, 3rd Level Spells at 9th Level, 4th Level Spells at 13th Level, and 5th Level Spells at 17th Level.
Half-Casters unlock 1st Level Spells at 2nd Level, 2nd Level Spells at 9th Level, and 3rd Level Spells at 17th Level.

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. Checks are used for things such as jumping over a chasm, sneaking around, or resisting magical effects.

Resistance

When you have Resistance, such as Fire Resistance, you gain a bonus equal to the value of that Resistance with Checks made to resist effects with that Trait and to Defense Rolls against that Damage Type.

Die Steps

Certain mechanics increase dice by certain Steps. This uses the following pattern.
1D4-1D6-1D8-1D10-1D12-2D6-2D8-2D10-2D12-3D8-2D10-3D12-4D10-4D12-5D10-5D12-6D10-6D12.
If somehow you get above 6d12, then if you're currently on a d12, increase the number of dice by 1 and reduce the size to a d10, and if you're currently on a d10, then you increase the size of the dice to d12s.
