Variant Rulings[edit]
Some of the variant rulings for the campaign setting which differ from 5e. It is highly recommended to use these rulings unless you wish for the game to be much more difficult.
Jumping: Jumping can be used as a part of your movement. Jumping Formula: ((Movement Speed/10 rounded down)+Atheletics+Acrobatics Modifier)*5
Mini Rest: Out of resources? No time to short rest? Take a minute out of your day for a Mini Rest. Healing a number of hit points equal to half your level + your proficiency bonus(rounded up). Additionally regenerate Zenire equal to your level. (More if you have a feature that boost Zenire gained through Short Rests.) You can use this feature once per short or long rest. Additionally, you can only take a Mini Rest a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per day.
Stat Limitations: Normally, stats cannot go higher than 20 unless there are special circumstances. However in this campaign setting the limit is 50. With possibilities to break it further to 80 past 10th level.
Starting Stats: Due to the higher difficulty of the campaign setting, stronger stats are required. When using standard array, the stats are instead 20, 18, 15, 15, 14, and 12. If you are rolling for stats it will be 4d8 drop lowest one. Point buy is not recommended but if used you are granted a budget of 55 points, the system works the same as 2 points per 1 stat increase.
Magic: Magic does not exist in this world, therefore no effects that dispel or counteract magic are effective and no effective magic works, the reverse also applies.
Brand New Damage Type: Emotional Damage: A damage type that is inflicted by some Auxiliaries and Divinities. It is impossible to have resistance or immunity to emotional damage other than buildings, objects, and constructs. Humanoid creatures are more affected than normal monsters and beasts, taking double damage. This damage type can be worked into regular D&D, for example with the Vicious Mockery Cantrip.
Inspiration: Everybody loves inspiration, but this is just better. When using inspiration, you gain 4 tiers of Advantage. (...>Disadvantage>Neutral>Advantage>Double Advantage>Triple Advantage>...)
Pity: We all hate rolling low on a die. Introducing Pity! You can keep track of pity like Death Saving Throws. If you have had 3 d20 rolls below 10 before having 1 d20 roll above 10, you gain a Pity Die on your next d20 roll. On your next d20 roll, instead of rolling a d20 you roll a d4 with your roll determining a d20 roll between 17-20. (1-17, 2-18, 3-19, 4-20)
Healing When Downed: When you are downed and rolling Death Saving Throws, you cannot get back up by recieving healing, however every instance of healing grants 1 Successful Death Save.
Clutch or Kick: When succeeding a saving throw against a damaging ability, you cannot fall below 1 hit point. Saving Throw Efficiency does not affect this ruling.
