Core Ideas of the Incarna Multiverse

The Incarna Multiverse ('iVerse™') is a structure of reality based on the Incarna Game Mechanics. This reality unfolds in the multitude of Setting as "The Pattern".

  • Your Game Group has chosen a specific Settings; It's Character page constrains what options you may have... it is from this point that you can realistically work with your Character Concept (though many Game Masters will allow just about anything with the right Character Story elements).

i20™ Path Details

i20 assumes you are familiar with the 2014 DnD 5.0 SRD and the PHB it is based off of.

Starting i20 Characters have Zero Discretionary CP unless noted by the Game Master. These are all taken acquiring a Race/Species and a Pathway of Experience. A starting character is the moment of character creation (@Character Inception).

Multi-Classing: Required to meet the Accomplished Attribute Dispositions in all classes (replaces SRD req.). Does not gain the benefits marked as "@Character Inception".

This corresponds to the FIGHTER (Class)
The following aspects deviate from or add to the base class, though may also vary by setting, back story, and/or cultural experience; 'Baseline' values are just average/defaults to be used * without specific reference checks. *

Making a Fighter Character @1st Level

Are you using Best Practice guidelines? (ask your Game Master)

Is your Game Master allowing a Committed Pathway?

Select your character's Race/Species and Background (and/or choose from a some other Character Experience) from those available in your Setting (ask your Game Master); Note that these may set or adjust all other aspects of Character Creation.

Pathway Character Creation Parameters

Default Aptitude Minimum Aptitude Optimal Aptitude
Kinetic 3, Occult 1 Kinetic 1, Occult 1
Baseline if Aptitude is not emphasized.		 Kinetic 3, Occult 1
= Begin play with Chi Reservoir (If they are using the aptitude)
  1. Essence is by race/species @Character Inception (baseline = 7 for most).
  2. The standard 8 Character Attributes, generate them using the preferred method allowed by your Game Master.

    @Character Inception, Characters gain an Attribute Score Increase (ASI), limited in application by Attribute Group(s) or explicitly as defined either by their Background's Vocational ASI OR as a Pathway ASI:
    PATHWAY = In either Power or Body

    Accomplished Attribute Disposition = 13 in: 1 from Power and 1 from Body; Additionally, they gain:

  3. Health (Hit) Points: (HP) Average HP only at 1st; Health is Recovered at a standard rate ("Hit Dice" are not used).
    Wounds can temporarily reduce the character's normal maximum.
  4. Starting Skills @Character Inception: & +1 level in a Lore of choice if the character has an Accomplished Attribute Disposition.

    i20 Skills REPLACE d20 skill proficiency ( Proficiency Bonus) - Character Points are Rewarded by the GM to buy traits and Skills (adding to the Result Check).

  6. All core Fighting styles are approved, all others (UA, etc.) by GM approval.

Further Developing a Warrior Character

Currently Supported Subclasses: (Others are at GM discretion/approval.)

LEVEL-UP: The GM rewards a character a level based on Merit. By default, i20™ assumes by campaign milestone and limited by Experiences using Improvement Limits. Multiclassing follows i20 multi-class parameters in addition to the base requirements. Sanity increases by 1 every 4 character levels.

The Warrior in Your Game

Cultural/Literary/Historical Examples:

Primary Setting Types: Fantasy

An Archetype character can come from any experience, background, culture/social norms, gender, race, or regional issue unless prohibited by Settings or Game Master.

This Character Pathway is commonly found in associated Settings as a Class/Path option. A Setting may implement this with changes that align with the setting's flavor and properties - including the title by which it is known. GMs and Players may customize as needed. Knowledge of this Pathway as it appears in a Setting is covered under the Lore of the setting's World History and/or more specific Lores, if applicable.

Story Emphasis: It is strongly suggested that all Players have a full set of Stories for the important elements of their characters; These can explain any feature that deviates from normal rule/play limits. GMs often reward this.

Need ideas for role-playing this? See the Roleplaying your Character's Capabilities or ask the Game Master how it is best expressed in your Setting.No matter what restrictions exist in the setting you use, many GMs will allow anything with the right context or character backstory.
