D10 - SplitReflection.com

D10 is a tabletop role-playing game system designed for simplicity and flexibility.

Stats

Stats are defined by three Aspects (Physical, Mental, and Social) and three Attributes (Power, Durability, and Agility).

To begin a new character, assign the numbers 1 through 6 to the Aspects and Attributes. Alternately, use any collection of 6 numbers totaling 21. The grid formed by the Aspects and Attributes holds your character's 9 Ability scores. Strength, Stamina, Dexterity, Genius, Focus, Awareness, Charisma, Willpower, and Wit. Add together the value of the Aspect and Attribute to determine the Ability score.

	Physical	Mental	Social
Power	Strength	Genius	Charisma
Durability	Stamina	Focus	Willpower
Agility	Dexterity	Awareness	Wit

For converting to standard D&D:

Stamina & Focus:	Constitution
Genius & Wit:	Intelligence
Willpower & Awareness:	Wisdom

Talent Points

New characters are given 8 talent points, which are used to earn new Talents, learn new skills, or improve existing skills.

Skills

A skill is something your character has some level of proficiency at doing. Each skill relies on one of the 9 Ability scores. To use a skill, roll a d10 and add both the relevant Ability score and the number of ranks you have put into that skill. To learn a new skill, pay a Talent Point to gain 4 ranks in a new skill of your choice. To improve an existing skill, pay a Talent Point to increase that skill's ranks by 2. Some skills can be used untrained, and some may not be used unless you have ranks for that skill.

List of skills, their relevant Abilities, whether they may be used untrained, and description:

Using a 10-foot pole and running start, a jumper can reach up to half her total check in height, and a maximum of half the roll in distance.

Talents

A Talent is a special capability your character has. Unlike skills, there is no rank or Ability score associated with Talents. Talents are (usually?) passive abilities, which may alter certain game rules regarding the character. To gain a new Talent, pay a Talent Point. Some Talents may not be earned unless the character has a particular Ability score, skill bonus, or other requirement.

Action Points

Action Points are spent to do heroic feats. A character may use them for extra actions, to do special powers, or even do powers in shorter amounts of time. They represent your adrenaline and excitement level.

At the end of any rest of one hour or more, you reset to one Action Point. Whenever you accomplish something worth experience points, such a completing an encounter, you gain one more AP.

Powers

New characters may choose 4 powers. Powers are special actions your character can take, above and beyond that of normal folk. Powers have different speeds and costs. Most powers may not be earned unless the character has particular Talents, Skills, or other requirements.

Speed

Free You can have multiple free actions per turn. Typical free actions include dropping an item, cancelling a spell, and grinning. These are actions you can perform while doing other actions.
Minor You get one minor action per turn. Typical minor actions include drawing a weapon, drinking a potion, and shouting a quick warning to comrades.
Move You get one move action per turn. Typical move actions include moving your full move, leaping a chasm, and climbing a ladder. You may instead use a move action to perform an additional fast action.
Standard You get one standard action per turn. Typical standard actions include attacking, tossing something to a comrade, and casting a spell. You may instead use a move action to perform an additional fast or move action.
Full Some actions take your entire turn or some number of turns. During those actions, you may do no other actions.

Cost

At-Will - Use these whenever you want, as much as you want.
Timed - These are longer actions that may be accelerated by spending an action point. They may be used as often as you like, but spending an action point will make them faster. Always listed with the amount of time it takes to complete when used without an Action Point, and the amount of time it takes to complete when done in combat by spending an Action Point.

List of Powers, prerequisites, and description:

Power	Requirement	Type	Description
Rebuke	Deity	Combat Action	You speak with the terrible authority of your deity, striking terror into your opponents (like Turn Undead).
Mark of the sage	Mage Casting	At Will	A flaming rune leaps from your fingertips to strike an opponent, leaving a small glowing mark.
Sages Intuition	Mage Casting	At Will	You make a brilliant observation that enables an ally to quickly act.

Confrontation

Confrontations can occur in any of the three Aspects. Body confrontations (combat) are the most common in typical role-playing games. d10 also allows Mind and Social confrontations. Regardless of the Aspect, the aggressor will roll 1d10, and add an Attack Ability of the relevant Aspect, as well as any weapon bonuses. If the resulting number is higher than the target's Defense Attribute for the relevant Aspect plus 5, plus any armor bonuses, the target will lose Aspect Health Points equal to the aggressor's Aspect Power + any weapon bonus.

To Hit : 1d10 + Attack + bonuses vs. 5 + Defense + armor

Damage : Power + bonuses

Most often Power applies to Attack and Agility to Defense, though these may vary depending on the weapon used, and defensive implement wielded. "Weapon" here refers to a physical weapon, power, or attack method.

Health Points

Characters have three pools of Health Points, one for each Aspect. The maximum for each pool is 4x that Aspect's Durability Ability. If any of the three pools gets as low as -(2x Durability Ability), the character is lost. This may mean dead, brain dead, or insane depending on which Aspect is damaged. In any case, the character may no longer be played. Damage received is recorded in a 'scratches' pool, for non-serious damage. When the encounter has ended, the character will immediately recover 2x Durability Ability for each scratches pool, up to their max HP. Any remaining damage should be moved to a 'serious wounds' damage pool. If at any time, scratches + wounds for an aspect are equal to or greater than the Health Points for that aspect, the character is defeated, typically either knocked unconscious, fallen into a coma, or fallen asleep. Some powers may have special rules for when they defeat opponents that put those opponents into some other state.
