- [DICE]
- Drowned Quest Redux runs on a 3d100 Degrees of Success system, where 3 d100s are rolled and the number of times they hit or surpass the DC determines the result. Modifiers may be applied to the roll or DC depending on the situation.
- 0 Passes = Failure (you fail)
- 1 Pass = Mitigated Success (you succeed, but...)
- 2 Passes = Success (you succeed)
- 3 Passes = Enhanced Success (you succeed, and...)
- 1 = Catastrophe
- 100 = Miracle
- DCs are applied as follows:
- DC 20 - .7% failure (8.8% mitigated) = SIMPLE
- DC 30 - 2.4% failure (18% mitigated) = EASY
- DC 40 - 6% failure (27.8% mitigated) = MEDIUM
- DC 50 - 11.8% failure (36% mitigated) = TRICKY
- DC 60 - 20.5% failure (42.8% mitigated) = TOUGH
- DC 70 - 32.9% failure (44.3% mitigated) = DIFFICULT
- DC 80 - 49.3% failure (39.3% mitigated) = HELLISH
- A typical roll might look like this: "Roll me 3 d100s + 15 (+5 Good Mood, +10 Nice Day) vs. DC 70 (+10 Stormy Disposition)" -- for an adjusted DC of 65, or ~75% chance of success.

- [MECHANICS]
- Certain things besides dice rolls and choices may affect the story.
- --Identity (10)--
- Your mental strength, will, force of personality. Also your general morale. Attacks (to your person, to your ego) may damage it. You may sacrifice it for something greater. A high Identity protects you against outside influences. It's not advised to let it drop to zero (though it's much better to have some Severalty left if it does).
- Identity may be regained through actions that reaffirm your idiosyncrasies, recalling things important to you, and rest and relaxation - typically 25% per sleep. Maximum Identity may be increased through broadening your horizons.
- [Lex Talionis] - At any point, convert up to your current Identity to an equal amount of Severalty. Severalty may not be converted back to Identity.
- --Severalty (10)--
- Richard's current sway on you and the world. It may be spent to power abilities outside your natural grasp.
- Severalty may be regained through converting Identity, and occasionally from powerful sources of energy. Maximum Severalty may be increased by lending Richard a helping hand.
- If Severalty reaches or overflows its current maximum, it may be spent to induce an alteration or to upgrade an existing one. It will then reset to zero.
- [Intercession] - Prior to a roll, spend 10% of your maximum Severalty to add a +10 bonus to the result.
- --Law--
- Not discovered.
