Loot Rules

Amulets

• Amulets contain a random trait from a random monster from a given CR.
• As a free action at the start or end of a turn in combat, once per long rest, you can activate the trait contained by the amulet for a duration, granting you its effects.
• The duration of amulet equal to the amulet CR (not monster CR), to a minimum of 1.
• Upgrading: Feed an amulet other amulets totalling at least its current CR capacity + 1 to get +1 CR tier.
• When upgrading amulets, or rerolling with crafting items, you may choose to keep the existing effect instead of the new one.
• The trait is standardised to not be tied to the creature or its specific actions/items. For example, "If the derro hits a target within 30 feet of it with a ranged attack with its aklys, it can use its bonus action to retrieve the aklys and make another attack against the same target" -> "If you hit a target within 30 feet of you with a ranged attack, you can use your bonus action to make another attack against the same target"
• The DCs of any effects granted by amulets are as listed, rather than standardised to the player's attributes.

Divine Dust

You can use divinity dust to progress your progress in a divinity path you have started, or start a new one if you haven't started one/have finished all you have started.

Moving mods

• Can move mod groups between any items so long as all mods are compatible with new item.
• Incompatible mods can be removed as part of a transfer.

Enchant rules

• The same mod can't grant damage multiples times to the same instance of damage (e.g. "+2 fire and cold damage" will still only apply once to an attack that has both cold and fire).
• Die size increases increase the size of a single die (2d6 -> 1d6 + 1d8, 8d6 -> 5d6 + 1d8).

Rings

• Max number of ring points used = char level + prof bonus
• Sacrifice: Smash n rings together (n > 1) to get a choice of 1 from n unique new rings that can't be of the same type as any of the inputs.
• Synergy rings = rings whose name starts with "The" = rings whose modifier interacts with other rings.

Uniques

• Unique items are, lore-wise, failed attempts creating relics, or at replicating items from myths/folk stories
• Uniques on 2H weapons still only take up one enchantment slot
• Uniques cannot be moved to other gear slots, but can be moved within the slot + restriction

Relics

• Relics related to a specific personality are unlocked at a certain quest state.
• Last relic level (10) is a choice:
  • New random mod from list of mods available on relic (rolled before choosing this option)
  • Upgrade existing mod of choice
  • New random mod (rolled before choosing this option)
• Characters have one armour relic slot, and one weapon relic slot. Any relic they put on will automatically get levelled to that level, but those levels are static once defined
• Characters can level up their relic slots (separately) at the following costs:
  1. 0 (start),
  2. 40,
  3. 60,
  4. 80,
  5. 110,
  6. 140,
  7. 170,
  8. 200,
  9. 250,
  10. 300

Helmets

• Character enchants only, spawn with 20 points of mods
• Can be destroyed for 2 orbs of personality, regardless of mods
• Orb of personality:
  • Applying orb of personality either adds a new character mod or upgrades existing mod (or progresses an upgrade)
  • After applying upgrade, if mod upgrade is not in progress, has chance to fracture (make unmodifiable) based on point value on the helmet
• Players can attempt to mend a fractured helmet:
  • Each mod has 40% chance to stay the same, 30% to upgrade (to the next level), 30% chance to remove the mod completely
  • Only character enchants are affected by this (non-char enchants can be added on creation via tarot cards)

Tarot

• Players may turn in tarot sets with 5 or 6 cards, unless specified otherwise.
• Unless specified otherwise, the base result of a tarot turn in is a 20 point magic item on a random base.
• Minimum enchant tags add random enchants from the general pool until the minimum is met.
• Uniques/relics forced to roll on a specific base type will reroll until a compatible unique/relic is rolled.
• Players draw 3 cards per loot result.

  • Wealth: Grants bonuses to loot found, sell value, improves loot searches directly (+investigation doesn't count), improves journey activities
  • Utility: Grants other bonuses such as skill proficiencies/bonuses, languages, senses, speed, class points

Journey Activities & Travel

• Which journey activity is performed is decided at the start of the day by each player, after learning the weather
• If players short rest during a day they perform journey activities, half a day of travel is added, even if they short rest more than once
• Journey activity DCs are increased by 1 for each short rest already performed that day

Barrier

• Whenever you take damage, if it matches a barrier you have, it depletes the barrier before depleting your hit points. If it matches multiple barriers, you can choose which barrier is depleted first.
• Your barrier values are set to their maximums at the end of your turn and when you roll for initiative.
• Whenever you gain/lose maximum barrier, you gain/lose an equal amount of barrier (min 0).
