Making your Character

Assigning Stats to your Character

Welcome to making your character. You can build your character with Hit Points, Chakra, Strength, Toughness, and Willpower. You have 12 points total to divide into your Strength, Toughness, and Willpower and each must have at least a stat of 1.

Strength
Strength is the measure of how much physical and non-weapon damage a character can deal to an enemy. Strength also accounts for how much a character can carry. See the chart under items for the Strength per weight.

Toughness
Toughness is a character’s resistance to taking physical and non-weapon damage.

Willpower
Willpower is measure of how much damage a character can deal with their ability. Also is a character’s resistance to taking ability damage.

Hit Points
Hit Points represent a character’s life. Your Hit Point score is by adding your Toughness stat and your specific class. When a character reaches zero Hit Points, you go unconscious. When you are unconscious, you cannot perform any action. Also each turn go by, you will get a negative one counter. When you reach negative five counters, without any support items, your character dies permanently. When combat is over, any characters that is unconscious goes back to zero and gets a wound counter. The wound counter affects your weapon and element ability. To remove a wound counter, you need your water user or a support item that would remove your wound counter. When you have both zero Hit Points and your wound counter, you can be healed by ability or potion.

Class	At level 1
Tank	Toughness + 2
Fighter	Toughness + 3
Monk	Toughness + 4

Chakra
Chakra can be used for your abilities. Your Chakra score is by adding your Willpower and your specific class. Once you hit zero in your Chakra score, you cannot use any abilities except abilities that have no use for Chakra at all.

Class	At level 1
Tank	Willpower + 3

How to move your character

The different action you can take

There are three actions that you can take: Movement, Battle, and Search. The movement is where both the Game Master, who is going to be controlling the enemy, and the players must roll a 1d20 and the highest goes first and then it goes numerical order. Now, you can move your character with a 1d10, as it shows below in the chart. The movement happens only once per your turn.
There are two options that are during combat: attacking or defending. Attacking is based on either Strength or Willpower. Defending is based on Toughness or Willpower. The combat only happen once per your turn, so you need to choose your enemy careful. During combat, you roll a 1d20 to see if your attack hits your enemy. If your roll is higher than your enemy’s toughness or willpower, your attack hits and then you roll your damage to see how much damage you deal.
The last action is a search. Search action happens only once per your turn and you need to be at least 2 square away and you will get one reward. During your turn, you can perform your search action at the beginning or the end of your turn. You need to roll a 1d12 to search anything that you are close by.

Roll	Spaces
Roll 1	3 square
Roll 2	6 square
Roll 3	9 square
Roll 4	12 square
Roll 5	15 square
Roll 6	18 square
Roll 7	21 square
Roll 8	24 square
Roll 9	27 square
Roll 10	30 square

Example:
	RickyBubbaKun is fighting two level 10 wolves. Both wolves have 5 Strength, 5 Toughness, and 2 Willpower each. RickyBubbaKun have Strength of 6, Toughness of 7, and Willpower of 2 with the item bonus of a Dagger, + 1 in Strength,  and Ninja Suit, +2 Toughness. Now his Hit Point is 16 and his Chakra is 11.
	First, Dirk and the Game Master roll a 1d20 to see who goes first. Dirk rolls a 16 and the GM rolls a 15. So RickyBubbaKun is goes first. He uses his strength first. (Note: You will be comparing strength to toughness and willpower to willpower.) So he hits the first wolf will a killing blow of his Dagger. Now it’s the wolf turn. It attacks RickyBubbaKun with no damage. Because RickyBubbaKun’s Toughness is greater than the wolf‘s strength, so Ricky just laughed at the wolf. Now its Ricky’s turn and he use Dragon Fist. First, he must take away 5 Hit Points before using the move. Then, he rolls a 2 plus he adds 3 to that, so the damage is 5 and the wolf’s Hit Point is 5 with its toughness is 5 too. So that wolf is died.
	After battling the wolves, Ricky can search only one wolf (means one search action during each turn) at a time. Now, he rolls a 4 on a 1d12 and he gets fur for crafting a new weapon.
