no need for :/


if *ethereal* means what I think it means, it basicaly means no physical damage, only halved magical damage except by a kind of magic that nobody uses ever
All it does is turn them into a shadow pretty much. It increases their SPEED and SKILL, but would also decrease their RES.

They aren't really an actual shadow, more like just.. magic stuff. Kind of like how Shade wasn't an actual shadow.

What are the rules around critical hits? It doesn't really explain them in the first post.

I think it depends on the GM.

I had planned to just roll a d20 on every action to check for crits, but eventually decided against it, so those rules never made it in. if you guys want critical hits, suggest something

Why not the usual, 'highest number on a roll is a crit' thing? And maybe certain weapons have increased crit ranges.

highest number on a roll would mean lower stats are more likely to crit. that would seem rather out of place

You're the one who came up with this roll system. Not really sure why you did but you did.

Just use a preset chance to crit, which can be enhanced with perks or stuff.

how about roll difference being higher than the enemies base stat for a crit?

That could work

That could work as well, it could snowball pretty hard though for people with high base stats.

Disregard last statement, Vaeros is now a black dragon. Changed his character sheet.
