WELCOME
This site is a work-in-progress as I reorganize and add material in an effort to help those new to the game learn how to play. If you already have the Beginner Box, then all of this should look familiar and will hopefully prove to be a helpful resource for your games. |
Our first adventure for four 2nd-3rd level PCs. Download it and the optional battle tiles PDF for free. The adventure includes monster pawns you can print as well. Enjoy! Adventure Blurb:

ROUNDING NUMBERS
If you multiply or divide a number and you have a fraction left over, you usually round down to the closest whole number (even if that would be 0). For example, if you roll a 7 and have to divide by 2, round down the 3–1/2 to just 3.READING DICE
The d10, d12, and d20 have a little line or dot under the 6 and the 9 so you can tell those two numbers apart. To roll d100 or d%, roll 2d10, making sure to assign which die is the 10's and which is the one's, unless your set clearly denotes this.Example: if the dice roll 50 and 7, that’s 57. If they roll 0 and 5, that’s 05. If they roll 0 and 0, that’s 100.
THE BASIC RULE
Usually, when your character tries to do something, whether it's making an attack, trying to resist a spell, or use a skill, you're going to make a roll:1d20 + modifiers |
