Base System & Hacks

        Whitehack 3rd Edition is the base game system.

For everything else use table consensus, no server-wide changes without big process.

Basic setting overview

        PCs are adventurers from lands spread far and wide.

        The Town is generic and far, far away from any major form of civilization.

Has all adventuring requirements.

PCs can take Downtime, Carouse while in Town.

        The Wilderness is everything outside Town, go out and explore it!

        Adventures take place sometime after the year 453, decide at table

        We all fill the narrative gaps as we go!

Character generation

        See base system for full details. Here’s a handy quick-start guide if you’re interested!

Simplified outline:

1. Roll 3d6 six times, these are your STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA
2. Choose class; roll HP, copy AV, HD, ST, from tables, decide Slots and Groups if you want
3. Equip character
   

Freedom over keywords^[1] (e.g. Slots and Groups). Create fiction about the far-away lands!
