This is an unfinished version of Dungeon Crawler 1.0

I have decided to include this just-for-curiosity's-sake.

It is based mostly on the Ultima series in it's magic system (unfinished)

Dungeon Crawler

Race creation, Class creation/template creation: a race or class/template can be made only if it dose not closely replicate an existing race or class/template, or is only used to get around race exclusions such as humans only as priests with healing powers. if you want a non-human to have healing powers you must make them a thurgist.

Description:

Summary:

Spell Name: Name of Spell

School: The school or schools required to cast the spell

Difficulty: The rating of how hard the spell is to preform and learn. the character must have a skill level in the appropriate schools equal to or higher than the difficulty of the spell. Also this it the number that the caster must save vs. to cast the spell properly. (the number of dice allowed to save with is the level of skill the caster has in the spell) (the difficulty of the spell may be modified by adverse conditions of the casting, lack of proper components (that's a big one), or lack of proper study.)

Formula: The verbal portion of the spell

Somatics: The glyphs or ward traced in the air or on the target.

Pattern: The pattern that the left hand must make (holding foci if required)

Foci: Includes hand held foci and circles etc...

Reagents: Consumable components

Casting Time: time required to cast the spell

Duration: length of time the spell effect lasts

Range: a distance in feet or yards or touch

Cost: cost in magic points

Description: The who, what, where, when, why, and how of the spell.

Summary: A condensed version of the description. Just the important stuff like 1d6 dam pr. Lv. or charms , save vs. 15 etc...

Spell Name: Sleep

School: Charm

Difficulty: 1

Formula: In Pal San.

Somatics: Wards of sleep and peace.

Pattern: Channel outward.

Foci: None.

Reagents: Dust.

Casting Time: 5 Seconds.

Duration: 1 Day or until struck or splashed.

Range: 1 Yard pr. skill Lv.

Cost: 3MP.

Description: By means of this spell the caster may put a number of targets to sleep that fail a save vs. WIL. The caster receives a number of "pips" equal to the level of skill in the spell, one for each three levels in the school, one for each five points of DOM, and one pip for each extra 5 MP spent. Each target in range may be allotted one or more pips the target must save vs. WIL once for each pip allotted, any failures indicate that the target is slept. Undead, mind dead, dragons, daemons, and spirits are uneffected by this spell.

Summary: Pips:(1 pr. skill lv., 1 pr. 3 lv. school, 1 pr. 5 DOM, 1 pr. 5 extra MP.) save vs. WIL.

School:

Necromancy: Power over death, the dead, banishing the undead, animation, earth, and stone.

Conjuration: Creates physical objects with magic.

Charm: Gains control over another mind with magic.

Divination: Gains knowledge or insight with magic.

Theurgy: Healing powers.

Geomancy: Powers over plants and animals.

Evokation: Creates energies and forces with magic.

Transmutation: Changes the properties of objects.

Enchantment: Places magic properties on objects.

Summoning: Summons beasts from other planes.

Sorcery: Powers over fire.

Tempestry: Power over storms, air, water, and lightening.

Diabolism: Arts of summoning, binding, banishing, and controlling of daemons.

Illusion: Power to cause mass illusions. Advantage of illusion is that you can create the illusion that you are casting any spell that can be used by any school. Note: any magi that is of equal or greater level in skill in the school which you are copying is unaffected. and a magi of any type gets a bonus to save equal to the combined skill levels of all his schools and triple the level of the school being copped (if is a lower level), thus it is usually not effective to cast illusionist magic on magi. Also note if the person in question knows for a fact that the person is casting an illusion he may add his will in to the save, but it is difficult to know for a fact unless you are maybe a magi, and know without a doubt that the magi in question is incapable of casting anything other than illusions, or if the player believes it is an illusion and the character rolls a will power save. If the character in question adds his will power to the save and the illusion turns out to be real the character automatically fails the save and is hit with double damage or effect. Spells such as ones that create a real effect that the character is unable to create normally, like casting a flight spell on a troll, for instance the troll if he failed the roll would think he can fly but really can not and unless the troll was expecting the spell to be useful to him, say the illusionist says, "Hey bob we need you to fly over that cliff and see if there are any caves over there." the character would not use the magic because he would know that the caster can withdraw the power at any time, also illusions rarely work on people who know the caster and who have reason not to trust him.

Blood (human or animal) Movement/Animation

The essence of life, left from the body, serves as a reminder of mortality.

Bone (human or animal) Summoning/Communication

The source of blood is also, strangely enough, the source of the will, and remembers the life it once embraced.

Blackmoor Power

This is an odd mixture of the element of Earth and the mysterious Black rock.

Brimstone Energy

This is the rock that burns or, more to the point in magic, explodes.

Dead Mans Elbows Permanence

Fallen twigs and sticks from ancient trees.

Dirt Life

The plant grows from the womb of the land, its roots deeply embedded in the safety of the soil.

Dragon Blood Great Energy

So powerful is this creature that the blood burns as if aflame. Precise measurements of this are wise, for too much and the magic will go dangerously awry.

Dragon Bone Great Power

The life force of the dragon is contained within it's bones.

Dragon Scale Great Protection

The dragons scale is the hardest known material, sometimes harder even than diamond.

Dust Sleep/ Weakness

Dust is the grain that erodes away strength.

Executioners Hood Death

This fungus is black in hue, dark in purpose and shaped like the head covering of its namesake.

Quartz Rocks Sight/ Knowledge

This aids a mage in focusing the inner eye within the mind.

Flame Invocation

This is an open flame such as from a candle, torch, camp fire, or lantern.

Obsidian Duration

While seeming to be a fragile, easily broken substance, it endures the heat of the volcano.

Pumice Distance

This rock, cast highest and farthest from the volcano.

Iron Shavings Protection

Irons hard yet versatile nature works in protective Sorcery as no other reagent can.

Rock Strength

Any common rock of small size.

Sulphur Warding

Will repel magical forces.

Serpent Scale Destruction/ Separation

The poison in the mouth of this beast seeps into the flesh and corrupts the scales, giving them the magical ability to act as a destructor of bonds. (spells of death and the knock spell use this reagent)

Sand Time

The sands of time.

Volcanic Ash Flame

The refuse of the volcano has the property of creating the initial spark of Fire.

Wood Preservation/ Binding

Almost ageless, a time-aided tree can be stronger than the hardest rock.

Humans have highest piety stats of all races and thus make excellent priests, as a mater of fact that is just about the only aria humans excel in, so humans make good priests and are the only ones that can be Druids, Monk, Paladins, Crusaders, Justiciars.

Stats can be increased by experience but no more than five points total.

skills are based on the most like stat with a bonus for skill level (which can be increased by experience.)

classes have race restrictions and stat restrictions as well as increase and reduce stats depending on the class classes also give skill packages but also allow additional selections based on education stat.

races increase and reduce stats but have no attribute requirements.

While firing a missile weapon or casting a spell you can't parry and additionally while casting a spell you don't get your agility bonus.

Saves: Pure saves are the kind preferred to be used in this game. (all saves will be listed as pure saves) Pure saves will be preformed on a d30, the object will be to roll less than the stat value. Some saves will have additional modifiers applied to make it harder to succeed such as Save vs. STR -1 to open a locked wooden door, Save vs. STR -5 to open a bared door or a thick wooden door, or Save vs. STR -10 to bend 1 inch bars.

Modified saves can be preformed on a d20 where the target is to get under the stat number with modifiers always ten or greater being applied (such as: Save vs. STR -11 to open a door) so if a pure save calls for no modifier, the modifier of a modified save would be -10, for -5 the modifier would be -15.

Combat: An attack with a weapon such as a Two-Handed Sword may take up to 10 turns (seconds) to complete this does not represent just the swing but also parrying the opponents attacks as well a positioning and using a shield.

Class: Skill Package, Skills Allowed, Restrictions, requirements, Stat bonuses and requirements.

The first listing for a race is for the average type and the sub-races are ones that have substantially different environments.

Half-breeds are the races that are genetically compatible with humans, though orcs, elves, and ogres are compatible with humans they are not compatible with each other nor are any other races with any others.

Some sages believe that elves were once fairies but fell from grace and humans were descended from them.

Orcs and Ogres are generally said to be magically created variants on humans, possibly created by evil, but others believe that ogres are actually humans but changed by nature. another theory is that orcs are compatible with humans just by genetic coincidence.

Weapon and Armor Quality: Poor, Low, Average, Good, Fine, Excellent, Master Piece.

Priests: (Turning the undead, daemons, and evil spirits.)

A target may only be attempted once per day.

Alignment: Ones alignment will be Good, Evil, or Unaligned.

Good: You are aligned with the gods and spirits of good and must act accordingly, you must actively fight evil in all it's forms, act righteous, virtuous, honorable, and lawful.

Unaligned: To be unaligned does not necessarily mean that you can't fight injustice and evil or that you can't participate in those things, but rather that you are not officially tied to ether cause, such as a knight is allowed to be unaligned, a crusader is only good. An unaligned character must devise a personality as all other characters but must also devise a set of personality traits (like: Mostly a nice guy, will help those in need when he can but will not actively seek out evil.) and must adhere to them or suffer experience penalties.

Evil: Actively seek to destroy goodness and peace, act immoral, depraved, and diabolic.

priests can heal without casting magic, and magi can cast healing spells but they are costly.

evil priests can animate dead, cause harm, etc.. opposite of good. but no pacifists.

Example: A hunter is aiming at a deer the character has a targeting level of 5, the character passes his first and second turn obtaining and setting the arrow in his long bow, spends the three additional turns preparing the shot, at this point the arrow can be loosed and the shot will be at the regular hit probability, but he has turns six through ten and if he wishes next round to aim. Say that the above hunter wishes to aim for five rounds so he will release on turn 10 gaining 5 points to hit and vital. The hunter could have aimed longer but only if he had a better skill level would he have gotten more of a bonus. So the hunter on this action on turns six, seven, eight, nine, and ten he will receive a bonus, but say he sees out of the corner of his eye a orc sneaking up on him the deer is more important because the hunter is hungry and orcs don't taste good and usually get you sick if you eat them. So the hunter knows the orc will be within striking range on the orcs action in turn nine (because the orc uses his action to move) and the hunter wants to get the most out of his shot on the deer but still releasing before the orc attacks, additionally he does not want to tip the orc off that he knows he is there. The hunter releases the arrow on the orcs action on turn nine that's before his action in turn nine as the orc has a higher initiative than he so he doesn't get his bonus for turn nine, that leaves the shot with a +3 to hit and +3 to vital. As the hunter did not use his action on turn nine he can use it for other things such as dropping his bow and pulling his knife (both take 1/2 of an action). The hunter is now ready to do battle with the orc. (too bad for the orc, this guy has a targeting level of five that means he is at least a level three hunter.)

15 Sovereign are 1enc.

Each Bar is one enc.

Quick total for average mix of coins total the value of all coins in copper pieces then divide by 3600 to get a very rough estimate of the weight, this should be done as a last resort or when only a very rough total is needed, most characters will carry less than 1 enc. in coins and as such each bar a character has should be totaled, and the rest of the coins considerd to be 1 or 2 enc. unless the character is carrying a large amount of coins.

n Negligible (100 of such items would be 1enc.) (also normal light clothing)

0 Small item (an empty bag or pouch, dagger, arrow, light cold weather clothing, etc...) a score of such items would be 1 enc.

Trolls are large, lumbering bipedal creatures, standing nearly twice as tall as a man, and nearly half as wide at the shoulders as they are tall. Their skin color ranges from a pale green to an olive or gray, and they wear little in the way of clothing. Trolls move quite slowly, as if they must first decide where to place each foot before taking a step - though anyone who has watched a troll move through a small community, stepping on whatever is underfoot, knows better than to think a troll is careful. Trolls fight poorly, being so slow and bulky. However, their solid strength means certain death for most who are careless enough to be struck. Most trolls use some sort of club, usually pulled from dead vegetation, though even their powerful fists are enough to deliver a tremendous blow. Though trolls rarely wear clothing more than a fur loin cloth or poncho like toga (often Cave Bear which counts as heavy fur armor) their skin is so tough it acts like a layer of heavy hard leather.

Ghouls are the animated corpses of the recently dead. Wearing nothing more than the clothing in which they died, they are extremely slow in both thought and action. Ghouls have a bestial desire for human or humanoid flesh, usually devouring a victim while his allies are fleeing for their lives.

The remains of warriors from ages past, though dead, these animated skeletons are extremely agile and strong, often felling a man before he can even strike. They are brainless, yet seem to retain much of the fighting skill they possessed in life. Skeletons attack only with their ancient weapons, which are oft times filthy with disease-ridden decay. As they are already dead and serve only a single function, skeleton warriors attack relentlessly until destroyed. The soul of a skeletal warrior like all undead, is trapped within it's corpse, but unlike the others it's soul is bound to the physical remains. As the soul is "bound" even when it's physical remains are destroyed by a magical weapon or spell the skeleton will rise up and attack again and again. The only way to truly destroy a skeletal warrior is to first dismember it with magic or muscle, then while it is inert cast Grant Peace or successfully Turn the creature. All undead are insane and hate the living (A thousand years of walking the twilight realms will do that to you.) but the skeletal warriors are more so, every time the soul is released by the destruction of the remains, it's soul is yanked back in to the bones forcibly. When entering combat with a skeletal warrior the first thing one will notice is an aura of hatred and overpowering insanity once the warrior has sighted the living it will let out an inhuman howl, screaming incoherently until it is destroyed.

Fear: Undead (2), If it is known to be a skeletal warrior (6), The Howl (8 magic).

will rise up in 1d6 turns.

Coinage:

Brass Brass is used to make change for copper (players will not often use this type of coin as it is mostly used by children buying candy (12 pieces of licorice for a brass piece.)

Copper Copper is the metal most often used for payment of normal every day sorts of expenses, from 1 copper bit for an ale, to 5 copper pieces (25 bits) for a new hat.

Silver Silver is used to pay for weapons and armor, (and high class whores aka. princesses)

Gold Horses are listed in silver, but gold is much less bulky than 1500 sp.

Platinum Most people haven't seen a gold piece let alone a platinum anything. Platinum is generally only seen as jewelry for royalty.

Brass 1/20

Copper 1

Silver 20

Gold 100

Platinum 500

Bits 1/4 of piece (dime size)

Pieces 1 piece (quarter size)

Crowns 5 pieces (old silver dollar size)

Sovereigns 20 pieces (a bit larger and three times as thick as a crown)

Bars 300 pieces (the size of a pack of playing cards or cigarettes but twice as long.)

Brass b Bit b bb. Brass Bit

Copper c Piece p pc. Platinum Crown

Silver s Crown c ss. Silver Sovereign

Gold g Sovereign s cp. Copper Piece

Platinum p Bar r gr. Gold Bar

Think of it this way; 1 copper piece is $1.00, 1 copper bit is $0.25, 1 brass piece is $0.05, 1 brass bit is just more than a penny (1.25 cents). 1 silver piece is a twenty dollar bill, a silver bit being a five, a gold piece being a hundred dollar bill, a gold bit being 25 dollars, platinum piece a five hundred dollar bill, and a bit 125 dollars.

All the listed types are pre-weighted and minted with identifying marks (even the bars) but "raw" or "bulk" metal may be weighted at a money changer or jeweler and exchanged for coinage of equal value. (at a charge of course, but this is not to say that a merchant may not accept bulk metal as payment, especially if that merchant has a scale to weigh the metal with.)

Gems, Furs, Jewelry, Bulk Precious Metal.

Jewelers, Money Changers, Gem Cutters, Etc.. will purchase an item from a character at the below list of percentages, in other words that 1000gp. Diamond you found is only net you 500gp. from a jeweler. But maybe 750gp. to an end buyer, not the full 1000gp. because the buyer may never see you again and the item may be fake, stolen, etc...

Item No Questions Asked. After Haggling Player Sells to End Buyer

Gem 30% 50% 75%

Jewelry 25% 40% 60%

Fur 10% 30% 50%

Bulk Metal 80% 90% 95%

Note: A thief selling to the thieves guild may get between 1% and 15% more than the list depending on the characters relations with the guild and the market.
