Editing PDQ/Exalted Conversion (section)

==High Powered PDQ==


The first step in the conversion was the modification of the PDQ system to suit a high powered game, with a large number of qualities and thus a very high potential bonus. The 'High Powered PDQ' system is identical to normal PDQ except that it uses a 3d6 roll instead of 2d6 to determine sucess and failure, and has 7 Quality Ranks instead of the normal 5. 

===Quality Ranks===

Unlike normal PDQ, there are two Ranks above Master [+6], they are Elite [+8] and Epic [+10]. They are functionally identical to the lower ranks, except they are more difficult to raise with XP and have limits on attaining them (this is true only for the Exalted conversion, because of charm mechanics unique to the system. In a normal PDQ game they should be treated just like normal Qualities). 

===Target Numbers===

Because of the new dice scheme, and the increased Quality Ranks, there is a new Target Number scale for High Powered PDQ.

All TN's are increased by 4 (poor becomes 9, Average becomes 11, and so on). Elite and Epic have their own target numbers as well, for truly incredible or impossible feats, they are 19 and 21.
