- Rest
- This action recovers all of your stun and gives you a +2 defense modifier until your next turn.
- I like this idea* and want to test it ASAP. -BFGalbraith 2008.07.10
- while you are incapacitated you recover half of your stun each turn.
- normal and double power attacks instead of half and full power
- reduce average human power to 3 and toughness to 5
- only list full power for weapons
- stamina
- A character's stamina is 2 times his toughness.
- healthy
- A character is healthy when the sum of his stun and damage is less than his toughness.
- injured
- A character is injured when the sum of his stun and damage less than his stamina but not less than his toughness.
- incapacitated
- A character is incapacitated when the sum of his stun and damage is greater than or equal to his stamina.
Optional Random Damage Rules
- Double damage attacks do normal damage if you roll a 12 or less before adding modifiers.
- When an attack is automatically successful increase the power of the attack by the weapon's power. In other words normal attacks have double power when they are automatically successful and double damage attacks have three times normal power when they are automatically successful.
Compact Characters
Some games will have some characters who only need a little bit of information instead of full character sheets:
- stock villains and monsters which only need combat stats and sometimes a few special qualities or abilities.
- battle-on-a-page where two facing pages of an RPG book contain everything a player or GM needs to play one side (the "NPC" side) of a battle.
- book-of-beasties which contains dozens of creatures which need to be playable. Most of these creatures won't have equipment.
- a "how to" format for beginning players, explaining how to do basic actions, what dice to roll, etc.
- "collectible characters" (action figures, miniatures, cards or comic books about characters) with a little stat section, possibly a "full" mano a mano character as well as "how to" stats or stats for a simpler game like minimam.
Editing Character Sheet
If you change the character sheet format when editing any of the following, you must update the others:
- Blank Character Sheet
- Example Template
- Example Character
- Clone character sheet in the Combat Example!
Be sure you know which character sheet you are updating:
- The template creation example includes both the blank character sheet and the example template.
- The character creation example includes both the example template and the example character sheet.
