House Rules
Changing Forms - Players can choose to change Forms mid-conflict if they accept Injury or Exhaustion first.
Conflict Quick Reference
CONFLICT – ONE ON ONE
- Opposing players pick two forms and pick up the corresponding dice.
- If players have an applicable particular Strength, pick up its die as well.
- Players roll their dice and compare their highest results.
- If all die rolls match, players can mutually agree to back away from the fight. If they decline, each re-roll the lower die.
- The player who wins lets their dice stand. They dictate their action and challenge.
- The answering player re-rolls their dice.
- If the highest die of the challenger at least doubles the highest die of the defender, the fight is over. Set terms.
- If the highest die of the challenger DOES NOT at least double the highest die of the defender, then 1 of 3 things happens:
- If the challenger's die matched or was better than the defender's die, the attacker takes the advantage die and the fight continues.
- If the challenger's die is less than the defender's die but better than half, the defender takes the advantage due and the fight continues.
- If the challenger's die is half or less than the defender's die, the fight is over. Set terms.
- The character that rolled lower dice in Round 1 goes on the Owe list at the beginning of Round 2.
- Negotiate if you want, continue rolling if not.
- In each additional round, both players re-roll their dice as above but advantage dice are added to their highest result. Perform steps 3 through 6.
- If the challenger's die match or beat the defender's die in Round 3, they win absolutely. The defender wins absolutely if the challenger's die falls short. Set terms.
CONFLICT – TWO ON ONE OR MORE
- Challengers should name their target. The defender(s) will re-roll their dice as above.
- If a defender answers before their turn comes, they don't get a move later.
- If someone is not challenged, they re-roll their dice and make a challenge and name their target.
- Multiple combatants can earn advantage dice.
EXHAUSTION: lose a die size from directly and with violence. NPC: lose a die size from both action dice.
INJURED: lose a die size from covertly and for others. NPC: lose a die size from both maneuvering dice.
HUMILIATED: lose a die size from with love and for myself. NPC: lose a die size from both self-protection dice.
