In very general terms, a character in The Fantasy Trip is defined by three statistics, some number of Talents (and possibly spells), and the equipment they carry. The three attributes are Strength, Dexterity, and IQ. Almost everything you can attempt in the game is controlled by rolling some number of six-sided dice (usually 3) and attempting to get under one of your attribute scores. | In very general terms, a character in The Fantasy Trip is defined by three statistics, some number of Talents (and possibly spells), and the equipment they carry.

*Talents and Spells are purchased with Talent Points. A starting PC will have Talent Points equal to their IQ+2. They can purchase talents that let them use weapons, have advanced skills, or gain the ability to learn spells. Every Talent has a minimum IQ, a cost in Talent Points, and may have prerequisites. | *Talents and Spells are purchased with Talent Points. A starting PC will have Talent Points equal to their IQ+2.

*Spells are purchased like Talents, except that they all cost only one Talent Point apiece. A character must gain access to a spell through a talent, and they can then learn it. A character casts a spell they know by declaring the action, rolling under their AdjDX on 3d6, and then spending the Strength Cost in Exhaustion (this doesn't affect carrying capacity or other Strength-based matters in any, other than potentially making the character unconscious.) A character who fails the spellcasting roll still expends 1 Exhaustion. A character cannot spend more Exhaustion on a spell than it would take to reduce them to 0 Strength, including however much damage they have taken. | *Spells are purchased like Talents, except that they all cost only one Talent Point apiece.

Characters gain XP as they adventure. XP can be used to purchase attribute points and talent points. XP should generally be spent during downtime. | Characters gain XP as they adventure.

This section is also subject to modification and clarification. I'm going to start out using less than the entire body of rules, and may introduce them slowly over time. In some cases I will be simplifying, disallowing, or otherwise expanding on the RAW. I will generally put notice in the OOC thread before instituting any substantial change. | This section is also subject to modification and clarification.
