Doods&Dices&Freyja 1º Edition Rulebook!

Introduction.

The game is played in a similar manner to any Role Playing Game, you can interpret your Dood (or Doodette) to dewlve through dungeons, bond with locals or fight in epic wars against evil.

Of course, ALL actions have consequences in the world, depending on how your Dood behave and your achievements your reputation will preceed you and some NPCs may be more willing (or not) to talk to you or help you out.

NPCs can be Friendly, Neutral or Hostile towards the Doods/Doodettes but this information would not be available to you unless, of course, you find the Magical Item "Moodlet Glasses" lying around somewhere!

Status Explanation.

The Status are:

HP / Stamina

Strength - For Bulky Doods

Dexterity - For Doods with great reflexes

Agitility - For Doods quick on their feet

Inteligence - For Doods who loves Explosions

Faith - For Holy and Support Doods

Luck - For Doods who Find Stuff on the Ground Easily

HP and Stamina are somewhat special Status because they SHARE the same AMOUNT/BAR.

You need to spend Stamina to perform Battle Actions, such as attacking, casting a spell and dodging. At the same time, Enemies who successfully hit you will do Damage to your HP. So you will need to think carefully about how much Stamina you will Spend to attack because Enemie's turn will soon follow and it may be risky if you only have a few HP/Stamina Points left, at the same time, your Dood Regenerate a few Stamina Points per Battle Round.

IF your HP/STAMINA is Completly USED your Dood will enter Dying State and they will need the Help of their teammates to get back up on their feet! If they were alone or their friends could not reach out to them in time, it will be the end of the line for your Dood... Sadly, they Died

The Amount of HP/Stamina your Dood have will improve Automatically WITH LEVELING UP. All Other Status must be developed by Spending XP Points on them so they can grow. A Status can reach a Maximum of 20 Points

The Luck Status is exactly as described, it will not affect you equipment but it will silightly raise your chance of finding items and money!

EXCEPT for HP / Stamina and Luck, the Status of your Dood only implies on the KIND OF EQUIPMENT they can use/wear! So for your Dood to wield that POWERFUL METEOR MAGIC they will need a lot of Inteligence and if you want your Dood to be a HOLY SEER they will certainly be in the line for Faith Points!

Each Piece of Equipment will have it's Status Requirement that is how much your Dood must have developed that Status to be able to use it.

Doods Creation.

At the Start of the Dood/Doodette Creation ALL are lvl 1 and you need to choose a Base Class for them, the Base Class can be interpreted as the Natural Status of your Dood, but you are free to develop your Dood/Doodette in any way or proficiency you want! So, even if you choose a  Fighter Base Class, you can lean your Dood toward Magic as they level up, it's your Choice!

The Base Classes and their Starting Statuses are:

Front-Line Dood

All Doods will start with a Neutral Allignment! As Such:

Evil -------------- Neutral -------------- Good

Depending on your Dood's Actions their Allignment will develop further towards a certain direction (If your Dood does a Good Action, it will grow on the Good Allignment, for example) and the World of Doods&Dices&Freyja will react about your Dood depending on it! So if your Dood is too Evil, common people will fear them, some will try to kill them, or if they are Good, people will look for them for advise/help.

The Next IMPORTANT Feature to Choose when Creating your Dood is Unique Features! 

Unique Features can be Advantageous Trait your Dood has or Drawbacks! Why would you choose a Drawback for your Dood? Well, if you need more reason than simply "because it's fun" it's because EACH Unique Feature has a COST, Advantages have Negative Cost, which means you need to Spend you Points to get them but Drawbacks have Positive cost! So whenever you get a Drawback for your Dood you will receive more points to spend on that awesome trait you want!

Bear in mind that, some Unique Features, such as Occult Power or Telepathy will be affected by the Roll of the Dice! 

All Doods/Doodettes start with 2 Slots for Unique Features and 1 Point!

Each 5 levels you get 1 Unique Feature Point!

Each 10 levels you get 1 Unique Feature Slot!

For the Doods&Dices&Freyja First Edition, the Maximum Dood Level is 20

Playing the Game:

Everyone from Patreon Tier 3 and onward will be able to Participate in this RPG! At the start of each Adventure Freyja will describe what is happening and where you are so each Dood/Doodette will have the opportunity to reply to her with their own story-telling, but no longer than 2 Paragrafs.

As stated before, your actions may affect many things in the Scenario including the other actions your Adventuring Friends want to take! For example, if everyone is in a tavern and one from the Player's group start a fight, maybe some more peaceful NPCs who were friendly at first will not want to interact with the group anymore because they now believe you are all a thugs.

Combat System:

The Doods can state when they wish to engage an enemy for the battle to start or, it will start from the consequence of a surprise attack/ambush.Either way, for the Doods, each piece of equipment will have it's own parameters, their Attack and Defense value for example. For the Enemies, their Attack and Defense values will be estipulated by Freyja.

In the Doods turn they can do certain actions by spending their Stamina. The Actions to be used on the Doods turn are simple:

Movement - The First Move the Dood make, to better position themselves against the closest foe DO NOT COST ANY STAMINA! But, for all other Movement the Dood wants to make it will cost 1 Stamina Point.

Attack - Each Weapon will bring their own Damage Value and the Stamina Cost for it. When a Dood declares an attack the damage they will inflict will be Weapon's Attack deducted by the Enemy defense.

If a Dood has a weapon on each hand, they can perfom one Attack with each Weapon but they need to watch out for the Stamina Cost! Because after their turn end the Enemy will make their move!

On the Enemy Turn they can choose their target based on Dice Roll and their Attack can either be Defended or Dodged! When a Dood wants to Defend, they simply sum up their Defense from Equipment and the Enemy Damage will be subtracted from it. For Dodging, each Enemy Attack will have a value you MUST pay in Stamina Cost and when a Dood wants to Dodge they must pay that cost as they declare it, then we Roll a Die, if the Dood PASS the test they avoid All Damage! If not, tho, they take full Damage disregarding their Defense.

Every Dood Turn they will heal 2 Points of Stamina, always! So even if you made a risky bet, you can wait it out some turn or another to get your Stamina back.
