0.97 Update


Major Overhaul on this update. The Big Changes are:

  1. Art! I have gotten hold of some art that I liked and sprinkled it throughout the project. I feel like it adds a bit of spice to the document.
  2. Magic System Overhaul: I had been unsatisfied with the way magic required you to learn individual components, and potentially lock someone into being a support character instead of a major player. All of those requirements are now gone. Magic can be trained just like Maneuvers, with 6 levels of advancement possible. If you want to cast magic, you just need some training to start having all spell types available. Additional training is required to advance. I have also re-written the entire section and streamlined a lot of it and I feel it flows and reads a lot better. I even included 6 example spells to show how each Art and Conduit can be used.
  3. Formatting Change: I have converted the whole document into a 2 column format. I like it a lot better this way as it helps guide some of the tables more into their relevant sections. Some tables are still too large to accommodate the 2 column format, so a couple pages will stand out a little bit but overall the flow is better.
  4. Character Sheet Overhaul: With the changes to the magic system I had to change the character sheet. It is now 2 pages to allow for up to 36 item slots, as well as a full list of magical elements, arts, and conduits to allow for spell casting on the fly.
  5. Minor Updates:
    1. Minor changes to the Depths Features table. Removed "Unusual" and replaced it with Wyrd / Wylde.
    2. Switched the dual-options for Dangers in the Depths to a "or" to make it more clear this is a GM choice
    3. Formatting adjustments - I made several changes to how the information is formatted to highlight certain features more clearly
    4. Added Max Dex Bonus for armor to make Light vs Heavy armor more unique.
    5. Other minor changes for clarity, brevity, etc.
    6. Minor updates to the travel rules

This will probably be the final update before I formally release. I am really happy with how it has progressed, and I think the look is pretty close to as good as I can get it now.
