Posts from Lungworth

January 781 In the past, for the inhabitants of the west, the eastern part of Visteria lay under a veil of uncertainty, but thanks to an unintentional expedition—the fate of one of Arteria's valkyries and her followers—the shroud of darkness began to recede little by little, making room on the pages of history for a new player cloaked in an imposing aura: the kingdom of Lungwort, named after its sole ruler, Felicia Lungwort. Now, as the west is engulfed in flames of war on a scale never seen before, a great multitude of people are heading toward Lungwort, but they do not yet know what awaits them... Felicia's Aegis One of the features of the divine power of this country's queen is the ability to erect magical barriers over entire cities, and for many travelers, it is often a terrifying discovery that the valkyrie is capable of observing everything that happens within these barriers, peering into the very essence of people and things; therefore, for the security of the kingdom, the private lives of its citizens and guests are somewhat limited. This also means that attempting to hide anything from the guards upon entering the city is mostly futile. For example, demon worshippers are shot before they even reach the city walls... Nevertheless, not all is so bleak. Firstly, it is said that the queen is unable to observe all people simultaneously, otherwise it would place too much stress on her consciousness and prevent her from maintaining her physical form—a fate that once befell Arteria herself. In other words, if you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to fear... Secondly, city residents can turn to the queen for help at any moment, and then, in a matter of seconds, guards ready to provide assistance will arrive at the scene. Thanks to "Felicia's Aegis," Lungwort can boast a very high level of security within its walls. Atmosphere Thanks to the queen's efforts, the standard of living in Lungwort is quite high; however, despite the valkyrie's great power, the high level of security, the absolute authority of the crown, and the large number of Felicia's followers, Lungwort is still not a flawless country and has many problems. Most of these are caused by the annexation, which remains fresh in the memories of Felicia's opponents, the mixing of cultures that were incompatible in the past, and the influx of war-torn residents from the West. Adding to the trouble is the fact that the queen's attention is heavily focused on the security of a country surrounded by enemies and natural threats, and her wisdom does not reach every aspect of the kingdom's life. Instead, many of her powers are delegated to the royal council, members of the Lungwort senate elected by the residents, and representatives of the Lungwort guilds. Citizenship To become a subject of the kingdom, one only needs to pay 500 lungs, renounce allegiance to other states, and swear an oath to be an exemplary citizen. However, even setting aside ideological and financial issues, many residents of Lungwort avoid obtaining citizenship, as it imposes certain obligations and restrictions. For example, a visitor to the kingdom may keep slaves in their service—as is customary in their homeland—but if they wish to become a citizen, they will have to free them. Many are also deterred by the fact that in the event of a serious war, the kingdom's citizens are subject to military service, whereas foreigners are not burdened with such a requirement. Guilds of Lungwort Life in Lungwort is regulated by guilds in many of its aspects, and it is difficult to conduct any activity without their approval. For example, to sell anything, one must become a member of the merchants' guild; to engage in any labor—the workers' guild; to study magic—the mages' guild. Prospects... Queen Felicia and her closest followers have pledged to give everyone the opportunity to lead a dignified life and not fear for tomorrow, and so far they have managed to keep this promise. However, for those who crave more than the fruits of honest labor and a boring life behind the city's high walls, the path to the adventurers' guild is always open, where the crown's influence does not extend and the only limit to one's prospects is the blue sky overhead.

Start Motivation: to live in Lungworth and want to join an adventurers' guild, or to sail to Lungworth (willingly or not).

A skill point can be exchanged for two mastery points. 5000 experience points. Negative Effects Slow - reduces the character's initiative. Immobilize - reduces the character's movement speed. Paralysis - forces the character to skip a turn; defense (dodge, etc.) does not work. Sleep - paralysis until damage is taken (a will save is made each turn). Bleeding - the character takes physical damage equal to 30% of the incoming attack, bypassing armor, at the start of their turn. Burn - the character loses 10% of maximum health at the start of their turn (fire damage). Poison - the character loses 10% of current health (wood damage) and also takes -10% to all rolls at the start of their turn. Freeze - the effects of paralysis and burn (water damage). Blindness - reduces the character's accuracy and dodge by 75%. Petrification - paralysis effect; any attack on the character has a 20% chance to instantly kill them. Weakness - defensive effects (resistances) are half as effective. Taunt - forces enemies to attack the character. Lethargy - damage dealt by the character is reduced by 25%. Other Effects Lethal Strike - instantly kills the character. A successful piety roll can save from this effect. Resurrection after this effect is impossible. Injury - the character cannot restore health. Disease - the character cannot receive positive effects. Silence - deprives the character of the ability to use active skills.

Additional Rules The chance of successful resurrection depends on the character's endurance (10% per point) and, if successful, causes a permanent injury. A character cannot take less than 10 damage at a time (except in cases where they should take no damage at all). A detection roll is made only on the character's own turn (unless an action is being used against them). Characters can restore their stealth status if they spend a turn and there are no enemies within a 5-cell radius. Standard detection range: 5. Critical failures: if a character rolls a 1, something bad happens; for example, on a minimum accuracy roll, they might shoot an ally or injure themselves. Block points are restored after the end of a battle. Reloading can be done while moving. Maximum dodge chance - 65%. Order of defensive rolls: Evasion > Dodge > Parry. Order of applying defense: Numbers > Percentages.

Beliefs

	Arteria Despite the loss of influence by Reginleif and the Church, worship of Arteria remains the most widespread belief in Visteria. Followers of Arteria are identical to the Church of Arteria, with the only difference being that they do not necessarily support the ideas of that organization. Members of the Cult of Arteria believe that enjoying life at the expense of the goddess's sacrifice and her daily suffering is the worst of crimes; they pursue two goals: the liberation of the goddess and the destruction of all the unfaithful and impure. Followers of the Airisufir branch believe that the ruling Empress of Airisufir is the second birth of Arteria and consider women to be closer to the image of Arteria than men. Followers of Felicianism either believe that Queen Felicia Longworth is an avatar of Arteria, or revere her as a separate individual — a valkyrie, a queen, a warrior woman. ✦ +3 to faith, +2 to beauty, +1 to spirit. ✦ The character does not receive permanent injuries.  Church of Arteria ✦ Piety 6: Healing: restores 10 health points to self or a chosen ally for each point of piety, removes negative effects.

You're tempting me, villain...

But did they drop a nuclear bomb on Baldur in the end? A lot depends on that...

Indeed, if Revan said he would release the expansion next week, then he will release it this week. And will there be maps? Or just the Wheel of Fortune?

And was a nuke dropped on Baldr in the end or not? A lot depends on that...

The combat-capable ones were called up; otherwise, quiet.

Will there be cards?

Not this time.

If you want to use the old ones, I can port them over and even level them up, but this expac will most likely be harsher than Tiaral, so it is a risky idea.

Hmm, I only see two truly unpleasant outcomes in the roulette... I thought I'd finally create something meta, but not in this system. If a clear concept doesn't come together by tomorrow, I'll have to roll again.

Added 1 minute ago

tougher than Tiaral

Just a reminder that even following all the GM's hints, we wiped the party on the second quest. It looks like we'll be wiped out in the prologue here.

Order of Arteria - the character served in this order (at least in the past, they worshipped Arteria).
Rosenritters - the character served in this order, only men.
Drachenritters, Nachtritters, Order of the Moon - the character served in this order.

It's interesting that in all orders except one, the worship of Arteria is not important.

Maybe I missed something, but where did Telos and the Aysheids go from the list of origins?
