From The Whereabouts

Revised System

Certainly at this point nothing here is set in stone, I would go so far as to put it as little more than an idea list. Feel free to make suggestions on new content or adding or changing what is currently uploaded. For the moment I think we need to get ideas out, we can go from there.

Individual sections with more detail are split out in separate pages:

Game Mechanics

Combat

When it's a character's turn to go, the character gets either one complex action or two simple actions. A character can make any number of free actions on their tick.

  • Complex actions:
    • Search a body
  • Simple actions:
    • Reload blaster
    • Fire blaster/thrown weapon attack
    • Draw weapon
    • Melee or brawl attack
  • Free actions:
    • Verbal communication
    • Switching gun mode between stun and kill

Defense Value Calculations

  • Dodge DV: (Dexterity + Wits + Dodge) / 2 rounded up
  • Parry DV: (Dexterity + ability + Defense of Weapon) / 2 rounded up

Mental Defense Value Calculations

  • Dodge MDV: (Willpower + Integrity) / 2 rounded up
  • Parry MDV: (attribute + ability) / 2 rounded up

Calendar

I'm adopting the Tapani Sector calendar naming for months, because it's cooler than "Month 1". The structure of the Galactic Standard Calendar is as follows:

  • 368 days=1 year
  • 60 seconds=1 minute
  • 60 minutes=1 hour
  • 24 hours=1 day
  • 5 days=1 week
  • 7 weeks=1 month
  • 35 days=1 month
  • 10 months + 3 festival weeks + 3 holiday days=1 year

Each day is named:

  • Day 1: Atunda
  • Day 2: Katunda
  • Day 3: Satunda
  • Day 4: Datunda
  • Day 5: Natunda

The months, holidays, and festival weeks are structured as follows:

  • Month 1: Elona
  • Month 2: Kelona
  • Holiday 1: Republic Day
  • Month 3: Selona
  • Festival Week 1: The Festival of Stars. It is marked by vacations.
  • Month 4: Telona
  • Month 5: Nelona
  • Holiday 2: Labor Day
  • Month 6: Helona
  • Festival Week 2: The Festival of Life. It is marked by parties, get-togethers, and gift-giving.
  • Month 7: Melona
  • Month 8: Yelona
  • Holiday 3: Supreme Chancellor's Day
  • Month 9: Relona
  • Month 10: Welona
  • Festival Week 3: New Year Fete Week
