    Shadow of the Demon Lord - Forge Version

    Shadow of the Demon Lord
    This will be a basic ruleset for the fantasy RPG Shadow of the Demon Lord which can be found here: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product...the-Demon-Lord for about $19. You will need the Full Rules or at least the Players Guide.

    This is not a working ruleset at this time. This is the very early stages of a ruleset and I need your help. I am not familiar with the game so I need interested parties to subscribe to the Forge entry and to give me feedback and guidance as I go.

    Legal Stuff
    Under US copyright law game mechanics are not protected. This DBR (damned basic ruleset) includes mechanics from the game system it is written for but does not include content and other copyright protected material. This DBR is not licensed, endorsed or sanctioned by the games copyright holders. Some parts of the code in this DBR may be copyright SmiteWorks. You should ask my permission before borrowing code from this DBR.

    Incentiveware
    These DBRs take a long time to learn the game system, plan the project, develop and test the code and create graphics. I do it to enable more people to play what they want to play on Fantasy Grounds. If you find this DBR useful and you want to encourage this kind of work please consider making a donation via paypal to help feed my RPG habit. This DBR is 100% free to use and no donation is required.

    Guarantees
    There is no guarantee that this DBR will do everything you want or expect it to, that the DBR will be error free, that I will continue to support the DBR etc. Over time I may find I have more or less time or willingness to work on this DBR. It is what it is.

    Commercial Ruleset
    If a DBR proves to be popular it may lead to a commercial/store project but there is no guarantee of this.

    Things to Note
    This is a FGU only ruleset. It uses some features that are only available in FGU.

    Find me in the Forge.

    Quick preview...

    So initially I need feedback/direction on the following:

    Feedback 001 Post

    4 Attributes with two pieces of info - attribute score and attribute bonus
    My understanding is that the Bonus is Attribute Score - 10. Please confirm.
    My understanding is that Challenge Rolls are 1d20 + Attribute Bonus + Modifiers (including Boons/Banes). Please confirm.

    At the moment is you double click Score it will do a Challenge Roll. Please test.
    At the moment if you double click the Bonus it will add to the Modifier Stack. Please test.
    At the moment if you edit the Score it will adjust the Bonus. I believe Bonus is always based on Score alone? Please confirm.

    For the static part of the Character Sheet I have added the following fields:

    Name
    Level:
    Size:
    Ancestry:
    Alignment:
    Novice:
    Expert:
    Master:

    Now apart from the alignment issues can you advise if:

    Are these are the best fields?
    Are there other fields that should be included?
    For Novice/Expert/Master are they single line entries or can you have multiple entries in some/all?

    Correct on both counts with respect to attribute scores and bonus. The challenge rolls seems to be working fine.
    The bonuses do add to the modifier stack if you click them.
    I'll research again but yes, I think the bonus is always based on score.

    Some other fields to consider:
    Healing Rate (Usually 1/4 health, minimum 1) This can be different based on ancestry
    Defense (Usually your agility score unless ancestry says otherwise)
    Perception (Equals intellect score but can be increased by ancestry). Can have Challenges Rolls (CR) for perception. Works like other attributes for the CR.
    Power (Most start with 0. Determines highest rank of spell you can cast)
    Speed


    For the paths, you can have multiple entries for expert path if you choose to take a second expert path instead of a master path at level 7

    Also, I don't believe there is alignment in SotDL... Everyone is a bit corrupted...

    These fields are coming - it was more about the top part of teh charsheet that is present on every page

    Power (Most start with 0. Determines highest rank of spell you can cast)
    Speed
    Coming soon

    For the paths, you can have multiple entries for expert path if you choose to take a second expert path instead of a master path at level 7

    Also, I don't believe there is alignment in SotDL... Everyone is a bit corrupted...
    So always 1 Novice?
    You can have more than 1 Expert if you forgo a Master?
    Can you have more than 2 Expert?

    Aiiieeee - a charsheet I was looking at had alignment. A quick rulebook search suggests there is no alignment.

    Yes, I believe only 1 novice and only 1 master (or zero master if you take two expert). I do not believe you can have more than two expert.
