EMO Class Skills 3 Dwarves & Elves

So more of my bastardizations of BX

Firstly Ive messed with alignment before


Alignment
I have listed specific conduct and possible taboos for main alignments before
will revise these more to include prejudice, intolerance, charity and other shenanigans

nuetral is more or less self interested but prone to juggling good vs evil
too much good or evil hurts you and costs everyone
nuetral aim at avoiding conflict outside own immediate interests

balance try to keep law and chaos in harmonious balance for all
too much law or chaos causes disharmony and destruction
balanced aim at keeping extremes in check

 ⃣  
<Neutral>
 ⃣  Good><Evil  ⃣

 ⃣  LG  ⃣  LE  ⃣  CG  ⃣  CE

 ⃣   Law><Chaos  ⃣
<Balance>

 ⃣  

Core alignments L C G E N B
Compound alignments LE LG CG CE come into conflict with neutral and balanced types
might alter the graphic to be more yin yang but not a swastika
not sure yet but happy with the mandala look
might try do a planar one too...

allows ten alignments to fit on a d10 too

Will present detailed lists of permissible conduct

So this is my task table
for saves and skill checks
optional add level to stat before calculation for easier time if you think is too mean

Prime requisite starts as seasoned for saves
-others require character to select a art to improve and are amateur
-clerics best at saving vs mind control save
-fighters best at saving vs entangle save
-wizard best at saving vs puzzle save
-rogue best at saving vs evasion save
-dwarf best at saving vs poison save
A skill slot in appropriate art makes a character seasoned
-no skill slot in appropriate art is amateur
Rolls based on rolling under stats
-auto always succeed
-full uses whole stat
-1/2 stat uses half
-Bonus requires roll under attribute bonus if any

Eg
stat of 18 half 9 bonus 3
stat of 15 half 8 bonus 1
stat of 9 half 5 bonus 0

i kind have used this for a while but this is formal and simple

i wanted saves to be harder also
centipede poison easy
giant scorpion average
phase spider hard

This is harsher than what i have been using but then i have this mechanic
Partly created to give Will (WIS) bonus something to do for non clerics

Luck Points - second chances
You can pull feats of persistence by sheer will or is it the grace of the gods after all?
Your foresight and persistence get you though stuff

Can have one plus Will bonus number of second chances per session +1
Rogues get one per level
you can spend a art slot to get one more

you can spend these points on:
1) heal 1d4 damage, use this to stop bleeding if below zero HP
2) reroll any dice roll once per session
3) change one spell in your memory to another with superior hindsight
4) have one piece of common equipment you ‘almost’ forgot to bring

possible to use my card bonus system and trade luck points for cards
but that's another story
