To: blodtoad@unix.cis.pittsburgh.edu Message-Id: <8801240018.AA28742@vax1.acs.udel.edu> Status: R Here's the whole thing... ---- Hazon - rules Character Creation - To create a character, ability scores must be generated for the character's stats. There are six stats : Physical : Strength, Dexterity, Constitution Mental : Intelligence, Wisdom, Will Power Roll a percentile and add that to 360. The character has that much score to be distributed among the stats as desired within the limits defined by the desired race of the character. Races - Humans are the standard race for stats, and if one chooses a race other than human, the following stat limits apply : Race Str Dex Con Int Wis WP. -------- --- --- --- --- --- --- Human - - - - - - Elf 0-90 20-120 0-90 10-110 10-110 - Half-Elf 0-95 10-110 0-95 10-110 10-110 - Dwarf 0-115 0-90 0-120 - - 10-110 Orc 0-110 - 10-110 0-90 - - Halfling 0-90 20-120 - - - - Gnomes - 10-110 10-110 10-110 10-110 - - means 0-100 The stat limits for other races should be determined by the game ref. Bonuses - Bonuses are adjustments made to performance rolls, which determine if a character is successful in a certain activity it is attempting, and saving rolls, to determine whether the character is able to avoid or decrease the effect of an attack. They are as follows : Page 1 Hazon - rules Score Bonus ------- ----- 0 (task is impossible) 1 - 10 -15 11 - 15 -10 16 - 25 -5 26 - 74 0 75 - 84 +5 85 - 89 +10 90 - 99 +15 100-104 +20 105-109 +25 110-114 +30 115-119 +35 120-124 +40 Examples : Lifting a gate - strength bonus is added. Pondering a magic item - intelligence and wisdom bonuses are added. Resisting a psionic attack - will power bonus is added. Hit Points - When a character is generated, it's hit points are determined by its constitution divided by 10, rounded up, plus the sum of 3 d10 rolls. If this total is less than 20, it is raised to 20. This number is the maximum number of hit points the character can have. (It reduces after being wounded, but cannot exceed this number after natural or magical healing). Training - There are two fields in which a character can train, physical and mental. To train, one spends training points. Upon generation, a character has gained experience though life and early training. Total up the physical scores, strength, dexterity, and constitution; this is used as training points to buy physical skills. Total the mental scores, intelligence, wisdom, and will power, and use them to train in mental skills. Page 2 Hazon - rules How to use the Training Charts - To learn a skill, one must first become competent in that skill. To achieve competence, the character must spend training points (at character creation), earn experience (by actually attempting the activity while playing), or be trained (by a qualified instructor). The amount of training or experience points necessary is listed on the training charts. At this point, the character has 0 skill levels and training is bought or experience is earned normally thereafter in that skill. If a character is unskilled (completely untrained) in a skill, any attempt of that activity will have a penalty on the performance roll. Any attempt while unskilled in a certain skill, though, should be awarded experience points toward achieving competence. It is impossible to cast any magic spells from any field unless the character has achieved at least the 0 skill level. Getting Experience - Performing a certain activity earns a character experience in that particular skill. With that experience, further skill levels can be bought in that particular skill. To start a new skill, the character must try that activity, and experience will be gained starting at zero. The exception is that of starting a new field of magic. To start in a new field of magic, the character must spend a minimum of one month studying the new field either with a mage with that field and sufficient teaching ability and resources, after which the 0 skill level is received (appropriate experience points automatically awarded). Performance Rolls - Whenever a character attempts to perform an activity that the Ref doesn't consider automatic, then a performance roll must be made. The Ref decides on a score necessary to perform the activity; the player then rolls a percentile, adjusts it for all appropriate bonuses and penalties, and if this final score equals or exceeds the necessary score, the character is successful at the activity. Page 3 Hazon - rules Example : a character wants to jump over a large pit. The Ref decides that a roll of 80 is necessary to jump over it. The player rolls a 66. Since this character has a 80 Dexterity, he add +5 to the roll, totalling 71. The player has also trained 2 skill levels in Broad Jump, adding +10, totalling 81. Since this exceeds 80, the character is successful jumping the pit, but just barely. Explanations of the Training Charts - Specific Weapon : Skill bonuses go to attack factor. Other forms of unarmed combat also fall under Specific Weapon training. Unskilled penalty : -1 point to the attack factor per 2 exp. points short of that necessary for that weapon Specific Armor : Each form of armor needs to be trained in to a certain number of skill levels for the character to be able to maneuver unimpeded in it. For each skill level short of the necessary number, there is a -5 penalty, wherever applicable. Thieving Skills : For all thieving skills, bonuses go to the performance roll. Acrobatic skills : For all acrobatic skills, including all tumbling and rope skills, bonuses go to the performance roll. General Magic : Bonuses go to spell understanding. Magic in field : Bonuses go to spell understanding. Language : The more skill levels in language, the better the character is able to convey ideas in the language training in. Bonuses go to the performance roll. 20 skill levels is considered completely fluent in that language. Anyone of reasonable intelligence automatically has at least 20 in their racial tongue and at least 15 in the common tongue. Tracking : Bonuses go to the performance roll. Specific Animal Riding : The more skill levels in animal riding, the better the character can ride, take care of, and relate to the animal. Teaching : See Instruction UNSKILLED penalties, unless specifically stated otherwise, -1 point penalty per 1 exp. point short of competence. Page 4 Hazon - rules Point of note : Combat is just a glorified performance roll. Spell Understanding is when someone wants to be able to cast a certain spell, he must be able to understand how the spell works, how to cast it, etc. For all people, there is a base 100 roll necessary to understand a 0 level spell (none actually exist) plus 10 for each level of the spell. (i.e. first level spells need 110, 2nd need 120, 10th need 200.) To see if a character is able to understand a particular spell, a roll is made, add bonuses for skill levels and bonuses for mental stats applicable. If the roll equals or exceed the necessary roll according to the spell level, the character understands that spell and can cast that spell. That one roll encompasses all attempts of the character to understand the spell for each skill level. If a new character took 2 Skill Levels in a certain field, they get 3 tries to understand each spell (1 for making 0 level, 1 for 1st, and 1 for 2nd). From then on, no additional rolls may be made for that spell until another skill level has been earned, whereupon the character can try once again. Bonuses for skills are determined by the number of Skill Levels the character has in that ability. If the character is UNSKILLED in a certain skill, penalties are applied to any attempt at performing that skill. While unskilled, the character receives experience for that skill for every attempt, regardless of success or failure. There are two ways that a character can reach COMPETENCE, by being taught, or by working one's way up. For being taught, the instructor must have at least one Skill Level in the skill, and have sufficient Teaching ability and resources. To work one's way up, the character must earn experience equal to one Skill Level. All further experience is applied to earning the first and further Skill Levels. The skill bonus is +5 for the first 10 Skill Levels (SL's), +2 for the next 10 SL's, and +1 for all additional SL's. (i.e. 1 SL = +5, 2 SL's = +10, 10 SL's = +50, 11 SL's = +52, 20 SL's = +70, 21 SL's = +71, 22 SL's = +72, etc.) Instruction - In lieu of working one's way up to achieve competence in a skill, one may receive instruction. The instructing character (player character or NPC) must have at least one Skill Level in the skill being taught, and sufficient Skill Levels in Teaching. To determine what an instructor can teach, multiply the number of Skill Levels in Teaching the instructor has by 10. The instructor can then teach a skill which needs that many exp. points or fewer to achieve competence. Page 5 Hazon - rules Example : A character wishes to be instructed in fighting with a long sword. His instructor must have at least 1 Skill Level in Long Sword (specific weapon) and at least 8 Skill Levels in Teaching because it takes 80 exp. point to achieve competence in Long Sword. Instructors are usually locatable in any town, the larger the town or city, the more instructors of higher quality may be found. Magic points - To determine how many magic points a character can wield, sum all experience that character has in any magical spell field including General and divide by 50. Once used up, they can be restored by 8 hours of sleep. Any fraction of the sleep will result in a fraction of the spell points being restored. Combat - Combat is conduced in combat rounds. Each round, each participant may initiate an attack. A attack may be physical or magical. A spell used for attack, unless otherwise stated, take a very small amount of time to cast and can be used as attack that very round. In physical attack, everyone has a base score of 50 on a percentile to hit. To determine if one hits, the attack and defense factors must be determined. The attack factor is the sum of all bonuses for attacking due to stats, skill, magic, and any other special circumstances. The defense factor is the sum of all bonuses for defense of the opponent due to stats, armor, magic, and special circumstances. Then determine the net to-hit by taking the base score and adding the defense factor. To determine if one hit, roll a combat percentile and add the attack factor. A combat percentile is special in that if one rolls 96 or higher, one then rolls a d10 (when a 0 equals 10) and adds that to the roll. If the roll of the d10 was 10, roll another d10, etc. until a non-10 is rolled. Also, if in the original percentile, 5 or lower is rolled, one rolls a d10 and subtracts that. If the d10 was a 10, then roll another d10 and subtract that, etc. until a non-10 is rolled. The final roll is the combat percentile plus the attack factor. If the final roll is equal to or above the net to-hit, it is an effective hit. (A effective hit is different from just hitting in that if the roll was near the net to-hit, but not over, the character probably just hit the armor without any real effect.) Page 6 Hazon - rules Damage to the defender is determined by damage factors. If the roll was 50 or more over the net to-hit score, then a critical hit has occurred. If the roll was 50 or more below the net to-hit score, a fumble has occurred. Example : The attacker is using a long sword against an orc in leather armor. For the attack factor, add the stat bonuses (for long sword, Str & Dex, say +10 and +5 for both) +15, add skill bonuses (say a skill level of 4, so +20) +20, no magic, and no special circumstances. The attack factor would be +35. For the defense factor of the defender, add the stat bonuses (Dex, say +10) +10, plus armor bonus (Leather is +10) +10, no magic, and no special circumstances. The defense factor would be +20. So, to hit, the final roll must be at least 70. Say a 62 was rolled for the combat roll. Add the attack factor, 97. The attack hit, but since the final roll is only 27 over the net to-hit, there is no critical. Damage Factors - If the attack rolls is equal to the net to-hit score, the is only one point of damage. For higher rolls, there is more damage. Every weapon has a damage factor, even a bare fist. The damage factor is how much higher one must roll to do one additional point of damage. To determine damage, take 1, subtract the net to-hit from the roll and divide the difference by the damage factor, round down, and add that to the 1; that is how many hit points damage is done. Example : The net to-hit was 70. A score of 97 was rolled. One point of damage. The the roll was 27 over the net to-hit. Divide that by the long sword's damage factor, 5, you get 5 more points of damage. The total damage is 6 points. Critical Hits and Fumbles - When one rolls 50 or more over the net to-hit, it is a critical hit. This means that the hit was especially good. At the least, more damage is done. It is even possible to kill the opponent with that one hit. When one rolls 50 or more below the net to-hit, it is a fumble. This means that the attacker more than misses, but seriously messes up. At the least, no damage is done. One could break their weapon, hurt themselves or even another member of the party.
