Setting Primer

Many hundreds of years ago, a coalition of demons known as the Greater Nine, disaffected with the futile struggle against the divine order or disenchanted with meaninglessness dominion over layers of the Abyss, resolved to take some of the Prime Material Plane for themselves. This would be an altogether different space, free from the tyrannical balance dictated by Lord Ao and his petty divinities. It would be a dark canvas upon which to scrawl their own version of reality. Shar would be twisted into being, not created, for a demon cannot truly create, only corrupt. It would be purged of order and remade in the memories and imaginations of some of the most dreadful beings in the multiverse.

Thus the Greater Nine, lead by the mysterious Lord Uro, folded off a piece of the Ethereal Plane, binding it to itself and anchoring it to the Prime Material Plane, a process as cataclysmic and imperfect as the demons themselves, a process that irreparably damaged the fabric of the multiverse. Where Shar and the Material Plane converge, they warp and fray one another, a terrible straining that has birthed many wounds: portals. These portals cannot be opened, and they cannot be closed, but they can be traversed, and over hundreds of years, creatures flowed, crept, fled, or were cast into Shar from the Material Plane, populating the plane with Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Goblinoids, and a great diversity of other Folk.

They were welcomed, these immigrants: beasts, refugees, and would-be-conquerors alike, as subjects and worshippers. And finding a world absent of gods, a world where the Weave itself twists and bucks, where every spell cast carries a grave risk, a world with very few beings to appeal to for protection, worshippers is exactly what many of them became. This great collaboration between mortal and fiend blossomed into cults, temples, cities, and even Civilizations, wrought in blood, death, and insanity, but yielding great power and wealth for those who embraced the Sovereignty of the Demons. Their exaltation of the Nine weakened the cosmic bonds that constrain them to the Abyss, an investiture of power that drew the demons ever closer to Godhood.

That is, until the arrival of mortals who brought their Faith with them, who would not bow before the darkness, who uplifted the oppressed and downtrodden, and in their heretical devotion to the Obsolete Gods, opened the way for Pelor and Helm, Bahamut and Selune and many other gods which the Nine had worked so tirelessly to leave behind forever. And though the Demons defended their plane with a desperate ferocity and violence, turning on worshipper and heretic alike during a time known as the Dark Ages, the Nine found themselves yet again cast out, this time from their own Realm. In fury and grief they retreated to the Abyss, but not before blighting the land with a permanent reminder of its Creators: Corruption, a terrible physical and spiritual plague that turns mortals into monsters, soulless horrors known only as Hollows.

In the modern era, in the South of Shar, seated deep within a vast desert across which roam a hellish menagerie of demons and monsters left over from the Dark Ages, lies one of the Plane’s most prosperous Kingdoms, Acroshia. This Human Empire is more properly considered a loose collection of city-states united under the Banner of Mhim, the possibly Divine entity who has ruled the Kingdom since the end of the Dark Ages. Under the protection and guidance of Mhim and his many-tendrilled legions of fanatical warriors, priests, mages, and spies, the capitol city of Seth, as well as its primary trading partners, Fathi and Al-Jaran, have prospered and flourished. Though rumors persist of a great Kingdom to the North, for all that can be proven, Acroshia is the last and greatest Empire of Shar.

It is in this empire that you will find yourself, Adventurer, either a simple Acroshian commoner lifted to circumstances beyond the auspices of your birth, or a heroic figure from Endorahn, the so-called Realm Beyond, cast through a portal to Shar as a punishment for a terrible crime you didn’t commit… or did you? Hero or villain, commoner or King, welcome to a world that was not made for mortals. The desert awaits.

Welcome to the Realm Beyond

Warning

This is a Westmarch with a mature theme where the sessions can contain a range of 18+ content including, but not limited to, gore, sexual content, torture, drugs, discrimination and racism.

---

Sessions are roleplay-focused where combat is dangerous and not always balanced. Actions have consequences and your characters have a high likelihood of perishing. It is advised not to write an in-depth and lengthy backstory until the character has reached level 3, due to especially lethal gameplay during the early levels.

Code of Conduct

1. Be respectful and constructive. We work hard to keep this community fun and wholesome. Please do your part by being respectful and encouraging.

2. In an effort to keep toxicity to a minimum, don't get carried away. If you are going to complain about this rule, keep it in PMs. That being said, there may be members who are more comfortable talking to their friends in a jokingly rude manner. Do not be offended by this.

3. Keep chats clear of porn and gore. The moderation team will remove it, warn you, and ban you if it happens again.

4. TRB welcomes players of all races, creeds, sexual orientations and gender identities. If you have issues with that, find another server.

5. Do not spam, and keep channels on-topic. No political, religious, or otherwise argument-inducing or divisive topics. Memes and shitposting are to be contained in the memes channel

6. Keep discussions in English.

7. Do not ping staff members for casual conversation, or to ask questions that are already answered in the rules.

8. All staff on this server, council and DMs alike, contribute their free time so that you may enjoy your hobby completely free-of-charge. If you act in a generally hostile or chaotic manner, combative manner, or act in way that degrades server morale, or bring what we perceive as a toxic dynamic in any way, you will be asked to chill out or find a new place to play

• Don’t make other players wait in combat. Plan your actions during other players' turns.

• Player characters minimum allowed age for PCs are "Young Adults" in relation to whatever race they are.

• Players should tend to downtime in-between sessions, not when the session starts.

• If you anticipate not being able to use voice chat for more than 1/3rd of a session, we ask you to kindly not join. Non-voiced play is grounds for warning/blacklisting.

Ability Scores

Point Buy

TRB uses 27 point buy with a 15 point maximum and 8 point minimum in any given score for determining ability scores for your characters. Here is a link to a point buy calculator.

If you have accumulated a total of 20 TRB coins, you gain access to 16 point maximum and 5 point minimum. With this however, comes the expectation that your roleplay accordingly to your attributes.

Sanity Score

In TRB, there is an additional ability score named Sanity. To determine this ability score, roll 2d6+6 with a GM. After rolling the ability score, you may point buy into Sanity as if it were any other ability score- however, you cannot reduce Sanity to gain points.

Intelligence

Characters gain (or lose) extra proficiencies equal to their Intelligence modifier, and the same number of languages. This is also true if Intelligence is increased later on via ASI, but not if it is enhanced by a spell or item. Dropping one tool/instrument proficiency to satisfy negative INT restrictions means dropping all tool/instrument proficiencies. Bards may not surrender their instrument proficiencies. You cannot drop or gain armor or weapon proficiencies.

Charisma

Charisma adjusts DC for faction reputation gain, making it easier to recieve favors.

Proficiencies

If you gain proficiency in a skill twice, your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses the proficiency. This does not stack with other features that provide the same effect. (i.e. Rogue's Expertise)

Talent Trees(Feats)

Feats are not used. Instead, we use Talent Trees.

Level Up

• You gain your normal classes features when leveling up.
• Maximum hit points increased per level is determined by the average of the class' hit die rather than rolling.
• Players should/must work with their DMs to spend all their downtime days before leveling up.

Goblin

Goblins live in loose clans ruled by a leader they refer to as a Mob Boss. Evil goblin societies frequently war against their neighbors, if not attempt to annoy them. More peaceable goblins, who are fewer and far between, prefer to play practical jokes on neighbors, which sometimes can be just as bad as if they had declared war.

Ability Score Increase: Your Dexterity score increases by 2. Age: Goblins mature faster than other races considered fully grown at the age of 3. Unfortunately, goblins are also a very short-lived race not because of the shortness or their natural lifespan but because the majority of them live brutal and short lives or do brutal and stupid things. Allegedly they can live to be up to 60 years old.
Alignment: Goblins alignment tends to differ by subrace, however, it is very unlikely a goblin, regardless of subrace, will ever be lawful.
Size: Goblins are short, usually 3 to 4 feet and weigh about 50 pounds. Your size is Small.
Speed: Goblins are naturally fast despite being small creatures. Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Darkvision: You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray. Nimble Escape: Goblins know when to run when things get heated. The goblin can take the Disengage or Hide action as a Bonus Action on each of its turns.
Languages: You can speak, read and write Common, and Goblin.

Subrace: Greenskins (Traditional Goblins)

Greenskins are what people think about when they hear the word "goblin". Their skin are shades of green or yellow, and their faces are squat and flat. These goblins are the most numerous and savage of their kin and war against anything that’s not a goblinoid. Until anything conquers and enslaves them, that is.
Ability Score Increase: You have been beaten and bruised enough to be slightly tougher than others of your kind. Your Constitution score is increased by 1.
Mud Slinger: Insults are your pastime. You gain the cantrip vicious mockery. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for this spell.
Worg Rider: Greenskins have an amicable relationship with worgs, whom they ride into battle. You have proficiency in the Animal Handling skill.
Run For It: When the odds are against you, at least you can trust your legs. When using the disengage action, difficult terrain doesn't cost you extra movement on that turn.

Subrace: Boggarts (Swamp Goblins)

Boggarts are goblins that live in the swamps and marshes of the world. While they are smaller in number than greenskins, they make up for it with strong communal relationships and fierce defense of their territory. Boggarts skin range from brown to black and have little hair on their heads, though they have been known to grow beards and whiskers. Unlike their more unruly kin, Boggarts very rarely interact with other races, preferring to keep to themselves. The only race they are openly hostile against are the Bullywugs, which they are at constant war with.

Ability Score Increase: Years in the swamp has made your kind craftier than the average goblin. Your Wisdom score is increased by 1.

Bog Swimmer: Boggart hit and run tactics usually include a good dose of swimming through less than cooperative waters. You have a swimming speed of 30 feet.

Boggart Weapon Proficiency: Your clan has trained you well. You have proficiency with the blowgun and net.
Swamp Life: You have advantage on saving throws against poison and diseases, and you have resistance against poison damage.
Amphibious: You have Gills that let you breathe underwater.

Subrace: Gremlins (Tinker Goblins)

A long time ago, a group of Rock Gnomes enslaved a clan of Goblins that had been marauding in their territory. The descendants of these Goblins are known today as Gremlins. Gremlins are unlike the rest of their race, they have long noses unlike the usual squat noses of goblinoids, skin that ranges from turquoise to red, and some hair on their body. They are incredibly intelligent for goblins and have a passion for creating that matches even the most dedicated of gnomes. Unfortunately, this passion is for creating things that destroy, which puts the goblins in a vicious cycle of rebuilding and destroying. They are the fewest among the goblins mostly because of their mad experiments. The main cause of death among gremlins is "immolation".
Ability Score Increase: You may not have a fiber of common sense in your little red body, but that doesn't mean you're not a genius! Your Intelligence Score is increased by 1.
Almost Fire Proof: You have set yourself on fire so often you've gotten used to it. You are resistant to fire damage.

Dangerous Tinker: The gnomes like pretty things, but you like your creations to be a little more dynamic. You have proficiency with one artisan’s tool of your choice. Using those tools, you can spend 1 hour and 10gp worth of materials to construct a Tiny clockwork device (AC 5, 1 hp) that works for 24 hours, or when you use your action to dismantle it. You can have up to three such devices active at one time. You may reclaim the parts used to create the device once it stops functioning, only if it did not explode. When you create a device, choose one of the following options:

• Arsonist's Friend: A small brass rod with a slit at the top and a button on the side. When the button on the device is pushed roll 1d6. On a roll of 2-6, the device produces a miniature flame, which you can use to light a candle, torch, or campfire. On a roll of 1, the device explodes causing 1d4 fire damage to the user.
  
• Blast Orb: The device is a small brass orb that makes a ticking sound once a small button on the top is pressed. One round after the button at the top is pressed the device explodes in a 5-foot radius dealing 1d8 fire damage to anything within it. If the device is destroyed, nothing happens.
  
• Bomb Boy: A clockwork tiny construct that is in the form of a goblin. When placed on the ground, the toy moves 5 feet across the ground on each of your turns in the direction it is facing making a loud wailing sound as it walks. When it is destroyed roll a d20. On a roll of 12 or higher, the object explodes in a sphere five feet in diameter dealing 1d4 piercing damage.

Homebrew Mechanics

Game Mechanics

Sanity

Sanity represents a character's state of mind. This is introduced as a character's 7th attribute (STR, DEX, etc.) and is rolled during character creation. As they experience any horrific sightings in the world of Shar, characters begin losing Sanity. If not managed properly through rest and relaxation, characters begin to lose parts of themselves, eventually losing control completely and becoming unplayable.

When a horrific or mind shattering event is witnessed by a character, a Sanity Saving Throw may occur to attempt to prevent a character's mind from going insane. You roll a d20 + your Sanity modifier (i.e. a Sanity of 16 is a +3 Mod, same as other ability scores). Sanity Saving Throws can be rolled at advantage/disadvantage at the DM's discretion, depending on a character's relation and involvement to the incident. Short term sanity may be saved against again after taking damage.

Sanity is tracked in two ways: Current and Max Sanity. Maximum Sanity is your Sanity score. Current Sanity can go down by failing Sanity Saving Throws, which also results in short-term and long-term sanity conditions. When Current Sanity reaches 0, you lose 1 Sanity score and reset yor Current Sanity to your new Sanity. When Sanity reaches 0, the character loses control and becomes unplayable.

Breaking Sanity

A character may attempt to break a short term sanity condition by taking an action on their turn to make the sanity saving throw again.

Corruption

Corruption is a global curse in The Realm Beyond. It looms in the darkest corner and can only be partially alleviated by the Remove Curse spell. Corruption is highly visible and contagious when gained at high levels, causing the body to become grey and show symptoms such as yellow eyes. All buy prices increase by 5% for each point of corruption.

You gain corruption levels as you are exposed to specific events/sources. Each corruption level grants a deformation or debuff to the character until removed, such as through Remove Curse spell.

Note: Corruption carries over through things like polymorph, wild shape, and reincarnation.

1 point: The creature's skin starts getting slightly grey like at the points it made contact with the corruption.

2 points: The grey like skin has now spread over a larger portion of the body and black veins seem to pop up here and there. There’s a slight tone of yellow to the eyes. The creatures now have disadvantage on Charisma-based checks (with the exception of Intimidation) versus

people that disgust Hollowfication (most nobles) and a -2 to their CHA mod when buying or selling.

3 points: The Hollowfication is now harder to hide as the creature's entire body becomes dark grey and covered with black veins and it’s eyes have gotten yellow. The creature has disadvantage on all Charisma-based checks (with the exception of intimidation). The creature clearly seems as a Hollow if it doesn’t try to hide it. Expensive make-up being regularly applied can prevent the Charisma disadvantages if the target fails an investigation check.

4 points: Permanent 1 level of exhaustion.

5 points: Permanent 2 levels of exhaustion.

6 points: Permanent 3 levels of exhaustion.

7 points: Permanent 4 levels of exhaustion. The creature loses all hair it has.

8 points: Permanent 5 levels of exhaustion. The creature goes blind as its eyes rot away.

9 points: Only a wish spell or true resurrection can save the PC at this point. ((PC will die and become Hollow on their next turn unless corruption is removed.)) March 9, 2021

Magical Spell Fumbles

• When a player rolls a natural 1 on a spell attack the DM rolls on the wheel of fumble affects and applies the results.
• Roll a luck die when trying to remove each spell fumble. On an 11+, the spell fumble is an ongoing magical effect and can be removed by Dispel Magic, if the caster of Dispel Magic beats DC 15 on a check of 1d20+Dispel Magic Spell Level. On a 10 or lower, it is a curse and must be removed by Remove Curse.

Magical and Alchemical Fatigue

• Each potion drank after the first have a chance to give exhaustion. The chance starts on a 1 on a D6, the chance then increases by lowering the die sides by one per potion. This resets on a long rest.

• Using consumable scrolls, elemental spell gems, and other similar consumable magical items more than once per long rest incurs the same affect as potions.

Healing/Injuries

In TRB, a character may go below 0 hit points due to taking damage exceeding their remaining HP. Once a character goes below 0 hit points, they become unconscious, make Death saving throws, and also enter bleedout, in which they lose hit points every turn until stabilized. Characters with 0 HP exactly are always considered unconscious but stable.

Stabilizing via Healer's Kit and Medicine proficiency is also altered to make it more challenging to help those who have fallen, but more rewarding to those who have these skills.

We also introduce Major and Minor injuries that occur from adventurers going down or taking a significant amount of damage from a single attack, possibly leaving a lasting scar.

Healing

Characters do not use hit dice- instead, they have a Healing Pool equal to half of their maximum hit points.

• When completing a short rest, 1 charge from a Healer's Kit must be expended for you to spend your Healing Pool points to hit points.
• Wehn completing a long rest, you may spend your Healing Pool points to gain hit points. You also regain all your Healing Pool points at the end.
• Note: Sleeping/Trancing in Medium or Heavy armor restores half of your Healing Pool and does not remove Exhaustion.

Injuries

Injuries are more severe in The Realm Beyond and deaths will result from not looking out for each other.

• Characters at or below 0 hit points are unconscious.
• Characters that are below 0 hit points also enter the bleedout state, in which you lose -1 hp per turn until stabilized- in addition to rolling Death saving throws. Bleedout damage does not trigger a Death saving throw. If a creature reaches -25 hp or the negative of their max hp, whichever comes first, the creature dies.
• Being stabilized stops bleedout.
• None lethal attacks do not causes injuries.

Minor Injuries

Can only be gained once per attack when:

• Taking a single hit dealing at least half of your maximum hit points.
• Entering bleedout from a normal attack

A Minor Injury can be removed by spending 5 hit points worth of magical overhealing from a single source on a character or using the Relaxation downtime. If the same minor injury were to be rolled again, it's rerolled until it shows a different result. Once a character have accumulted all minor injuries the rolls instead happen on the Major Injury table.

Major Injuries

Can be gained once per attack when:

• Taking a critical hit dealing at least half of your maximum hit points.
• Entering bleedout from critical hit.

A Major Injury can be removed by visiting the Hospital (30 days downtime, every 30gp spent reduces days by 5 down to a minimum of 5) or with higher level spells. You must be at full health for these spells to remove the Major Injury.

Death Saving Throws

• Nat 20 on Death Saves revives your character at 1 HP.
• Reaching 3 successes does nothing.
• In bleedout you lose 1 hit point on each of your turns.
• Failing a Death Save causes you to lose and additional 1 hit point.
• Death Saving Throws carry over until the next short rest.
• Natural 1 on Death Saving Throws coults as two failed death saves

Stabilizing

A Medicine check is required to stabilize a character that is unconscious and in bleedout. Stabilized creatures retain their negative hit points but stop rolling Death saving throws and come out of the bleedout state. A stabilized creature begins a long rest. The first time you start your turn next to a creature within 30ft that is stable/bleedout you may make a DC15 medicine check or DC 20 perception check to determine whether the creature is stable or in bleed out.

Utilizing a Healer's Kit and having Medicine proficiency provides useful benefits when stabilizing, shown in the table below.

Healer's Kit	Medicine Prof	Medicine DC	Success	Failure
Y	Y	Neg HP	Stabilize and heals 2x degree of success (max 0 hit points)	Next DC lowered by healer's prof x2
Y	N	Neg HP	Stabilize and heals 1x degree of success (max 0 hit points)	Next DC lowered by healer's prof
N	Y	10 + Neg HP	Stabilize and heals 1x degree of success (max 0 hit points)	Next DC lowered by healer's prof
N	N	10 + Neg HP	Stabilize	Nothing

* Degree of success = Rolled Value - Medicine DC

Timeline

Unlike other Westmarches, downtime is not awarded after sessions. Time in TRB is absolute, not relative. Easiest is to imagine it like a line going from 1 to infinity where each character is at a different day on that line. A player may choose to advance however much they want (up to max DTD) but may be excluded from sessions by majority of a player group by doing so if they dont want to advance as far.

• Maximum DTD = How far you can advance
• Spawn DTD = The day new characters spawn on
• Minimum DTD = The lowest DTD a character can be without losing DTD

Reputation

The world consists of different factions and upon being discovered, players start at 0 rep with that faction and can gain a maximum reputation equal to their proficency modifier x 2. Each reputation can be consumed in exchange for a service or favor. Multiple rep can be burned for one request, but only one request will occur per burn, burning 10 -> 9 would provide one favor worth 10.000gp so requesting 2 rare items would still drop to 9 and reward 1 item. Reputation burning for DTD activities are still subject to downtime, so in the example above "Find Magical Item" downtime expenditure would still apply.

• Reputation may passively provide bonuses to Charisma (Persuasion/Deception) rolls in session if DM allows but not prices.

• Certain factions require quests to be unlocked, those can be seen written in italics here: https://www.worldanvil.com/w/shar-saintcrypto/a/factions-organization?preview=true

• In order to progress Reputation you need to meet the "Potential Reputation" listed in different Downtimes as well as beating a DC of 18 + (Current Reputation*2) - Charisma Modifier with whatever roll / average roll you performed the downtime with.

Reputation Gain

Bank Loan Terms

• A PC may borrow money from a bank in Seth, Al-Jaran or Fathi by proving that they're established in the hub with property. A PC may pawn their own property and borrow an amount of money up to the property value. Each month the debt increases by 20% until paid off.
• A PC can only take out a single bank loan at a time.

Inspiration

Inspiration in TRB works a bit differently than in the PHB. Inspiration can be used to re-roll any in-game dice. You can have a maximum of 3 Inspiration on each character at one time. There are several ways of obtaining Inspiration:

• You gain one Inspiration for your character when you write their backstory. It is advised to write a sparse backstory and fill in more details when you get to level 3.

Inspiration that is used in PvP of any kind, including stealing from another player, requires you to inform the opposing player when you use one.

TRB Special Currency

Not everything is grim and gore in The Realm Beyond, characters/players are recognized and awarded recognition through Inspiration, Silver Tokens, and The Realm Beyond Coins a.k.a. TRB.

Inspiration

Inspiration, mentioned in the previous page, is awarded often in TRB. In addition to being awarded by the DM during the game for inspirational acts, at the end of a session the DM will choose players who have shown great roleplaying during the session.

Hero Points

Hero Points are gained per character only on level up (both level 0 and 1 starts with 0 Hero Points). Hero Points can be used in the following ways:

• Reroll any roll that affects you. This costs 1 more point for every step backwards for the re-roll (minimum of 1).
  Ex. Getting critically hit (1. Attack Roll) and getting dealt 20 damage (2. Damage Roll) causes a Major Injury that would decapitate you (3. Injury Roll) would cost 3 points to reroll the attack.
• You and your party can pool points to allow you and X other allied creatures to take one additional turn for 2+X Hero Points. This can not be stocked on the same character to allow for Time Stop-like effects.
• You and your party can pool points to prevent certain death and/or stabilize automatically for 2 points.

Hero Points that are used in PvP of any kind, including stealing from another player, requires you to inform the opposing player when you use one.

Milestone Experience (MXP)

Milestone Experience, a.k.a. MXP, is awarded at the end of every session that represents the character's experience thus far and determines when they level up. MXP is kept track by the admins.

Character Slots

• There is a starting limit of two characters per player, otherwise known as character slots. Additional slots can be unlocked by DMing or supporting us through Patreon.

Archiving a Character

• You have a limited number of archive slots which are equal to your number of character slots.
• To archive a character you must get approval from a GM with an explanation of why they are being archived.
• Archived characters do not count as having downtime days.
• Archived characters may enter the Hospital while archived for the purposes of removing Major Injuries if you have also spent the required gold and/or TRB coins.
• Archived characters may perform the Relaxation Downtime
• Voluntarily archived characters get locked for a minimum of 30 ingame days in the Timeline aswell as 30 irl days. The character can not be used in roleplay in any form.
• Players may transfer Inspiration from Archived characters to active ones, they may not be transferred back unless the Archived character becomes Active and the Active becomes Archived.
• Un-archiving a PC force-pushes them to Spawn day instead of MinDTD.
• Archived characters do not collect passive income from owned properties.

Session Claim Points (SCP)

SCP can be used to claim spots for a game by bidding in case the session has more participants than slots. A session with 10 sign ups but only 6 slots for instance may start bidding to see which 6 players wants to join the session the most (similar to bidding in an auction).

• In a rare event that multiple players end on the same bid, the spot goes the players that signed up first. SCP can also be spent for other players to hold slots.
• Players lose SCP even if they dont show up after having won the bid
• Patreon Requested Session Bids counts as twice as high
• Players may only bid for other players in sessions they play in themselves, doing so cost twice as many SCP.
• At the beginning of each month all players earn 3 SCP (Session Claim Points, tracked on Google Drive. Each of the following titles add 1 additional SCP per month: @Soldier @King @Demon @GM @GM Coach
• A player may have a maximum of 2 times their monthly accumulation amount.
• Deprived may not spend SCP and are guaranteed in any session they sign up for

• Every session subtracts 1 SCP from each player if they have more than 0, no matter what bidding occurs.

Silver Tokens

Silver Tokens are used to unlock special races during Character Creation. These tokens are awarded by DMs at the end of the session at their discretion. The Silver Tokens can also be traded in for Inspiration at the beginning of sessions, but the DM must be informed.

• One silver token may be awarded for a great moment of creativity, in or out of combat.

• One silver token may be awarded for a great commitment to character, particularly if that commitment materially disadvantaged the character or caused them to take character-driven actions which substantially increased their likelihood of dying.

• One silver token may be awarded for inclusion, defined as using RP and interaction to get less prominent characters more involved in the story and the roleplay.

• One silver token may be awarded for growth, when a player has shown substantial progress in their play, whether through more comfort with mechanics or more comfort with roleplay.

• One silver token may be awarded for excellence in voice and character acting and description. This isn't mandatory to play on TRB, but it absolutely makes sessions more enjoyable.

• If all of the above occurred and the GM felt the session was immensely enjoyable to run, the GM may summon Exodia and award everyone a silver token.

Average is expected to be about 2.5 per session.

Rare Race Refund

To mitigate the loss of dying early after having put a great expenditure into an unusual race, 1 silver token is refunded if a Rare race PC died prior to level 3, and 3 silver tokens are refunded if an Ultra-Rare race PC dies prior to level 3.

Arc Rules

The new Arc Session Rule allows any GM to start an Arc of any length without requiring 2 other sessions to run. 1/3rd of the slots in any Arc group must prioritize new players or those new to the level range. Arcs should not last longer than 8 sessions, and PCs may be locked at GM discretion. The same PC should not be in two arc groups unless one is inactive. Any player can join an arc group that has an open slot, unless there's a clear reason why they cannot. GMs should make up story considerations to get new people involved and feeling included.

The Realm Beyond Coins (TRB)

TRB coins (TRB for short) is an out-of-game currency that is earned by playing in the campaign. TRB can be earned in several ways:

• The DM will award TRB at the end of every session.
• Staff will vote for the best post-session journal entry once per month and award the author 5 TRB
• Referring a friend to The Realm Beyond and having them participate in at least 2 sessions will earn you 3 TRB.
• You can earn TRB by participating in challenges that occur every now and then.
• You lose 1 TRB for showing up late to a session without prior notice + an additional TRB loss for not showing up for not showing up at all.
• Characters who die at Lv.5 and above earn grant 20% of that character's MXP as TRB
• Players interested in writing lore can earn 1 TRB for 200 words for lore-bounties & 400 words for non-bounties

TRB can be spent in several ways:

---

Earn +1 to an Attribute (Max: 20)

• Cost: 50 TRB

Earn a Talent Point

Boosted characters may use starting gold to purchase items of general availability from vendors before their first session. Boosted characters must be boosted to join a particular session and not for the sole sake of creating them.

Retirement

PCs at level 5+ may retire to become either an NPC or Villain.

• The player gains TRB as if the PC died and gains silver tokens equal to the retired PC's remaining inspiration.
• Retired PCs may only be used as NPCs by GMs other than the one who initially created them.
• You may retire a PC before reaching Level 5, but you gain 0 TRB, only silver tokens.

Acroshia Daily

In-character-news-articles now pay TRB similiar to Lore Bounties for any session that gives MXP for regional changes (Affected village or more)

TRB Gameplay Changes

Combat Changes

General

• When you make a melee attack, you gain an attack bonus equal to the number of allied creatures flanking the target. An allied creature is flanking a target if it is within 5 ft. of the target and you can draw a line from your token to theirs that intersects any part of the target's token.
• Natural 1s and 20s are not automatically hits or misses. The target's AC matters.
• At the start of your turn, you can drop your initiative to a lower value. You can do this only once per combat.
• Sources of disadvantage and advantage stack to cancel each other out instead of rolling flat if there is more than one source of each. (e.g. two sources of disadvantage and one source of advantage results in disadvantage for the roll.)
• Picking up an item from the ground & stabilizing triggers opportunity attacks from creatures that have you within their reach.
• Disengaging allows for picking up items without taking AOO.
• If you use an equipped shield to attack, you do not gain an AC bonus from that shield until the beginning of your next turn.
• Attacking a creature around a hard corner provides the creature half-cover.
• Find Familiar: Owl's Flyby imposes disadvantage to opportunity attacks rather than ignoring them.
• Grappling & Shoving smaller creatures with Athletics are done at advantage unless contested by the defender with Acrobatics.
• Attacks against a target within 20 ft. do not have disadvantage against prone targets. This distance increases by 10 ft. per size above Medium.
• Minimal damage that can be dealt is 1 from any source.
• Whenever you take the dodge action, any attack rolls you make are made at disadvantage until the start of your next turn.
• Whenever you crit while dualwielding, you may make an extra attack expending your reaction with the whatever weapon you hold in the opposite hand.
• Medium or larger bodies always difficult terrain unless otherwise stated by the DM.
• Touch spells & unarmed attacks may not be performed against targets smaller than the mount while mounted. Weapons without reach cannot hit a prone target smaller than the mount while mounted.
• Frightened and Stunned conditions can be broken similarily to sanity conditions
• Non-lethal attacks do not causes injuries
• Plunge Attack: If youre on a higher altitude than an enemy you may make a plunge attack. If the attack hits you may apply fall damage taken from the fall to the damage dealt ot the defender.
• Moving an unconcious or paralyzed works as RAW depending on encumberance, no action required.
• Flanking is not limited to creatures within 5ft if Reach apply
• Tumble & Overrun do not require an Action or Bonus Action, but instead lose the movement it would take to reach the designated square.
• You may replace an attack made as part of an action with an escape attempt of a grapple or restrain.
• All creatures summoned/spawned by you, except for controlled mounts, take their turn immediately after you. If there are multiple summons, the player may set a sequence for the turns but it stays the same on every following round.
• Abilities that apply to creatures at 0 HP also applies to a creature at negative HP, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

On Guard

You may declare your PC is ON GUARD and expecting combat either openly or through PM at any time This makes you immune to a surprise attack in the current social scenario. You will act in any surprise round with guarantee. However, enemies trying to have Insight into the party's intentions may roll against your passive Deception to detect you as potentially hostile. If they succeed, your party may have Disadvantage to negotiate with them. (GM's discretion)

Ranged Attacks

• Making a ranged attack against a target with a creature between you and the target provides 3/4 cover to the target. If the attack misses within 5 of the target's AC you instead hit one of the blocking targets if they are same size or larger than the target and the original attack beats its AC - Can be negated by shooting at disadvantage.
• ammunition collected always equals half the amount of ammunition fired. Exception being firearms where nothing is collectible.

Fighting Style Changes

• Great Weapon Fighting Style: Heavy reach weapons adds +1 to hit and heavy two-handed non reach weapons add +2 to hit.
• Curved Weapon Fighting Style: When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a curved weapon that you are wielding you can reroll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. The weapon must be a Scimitar, Sickle, Scythe or Double Scimitar for you to gain this benefit.

Action Economy

Free Actions

• Object interactions and free actions are synonymous. Actions and bonus actions can be used as free actions. You can also spend half your movement to use as a free action.
• On any turn, you can use your Reaction to take the speaking option of the Free Action.
• A free action can additionally be used to speak three sentences in character. You can give up one of these sentences to someone else so that they can speak when you use the free action to speak.

Clarifications

• Using a potion is an action.
• Dropping a held item requires no action.
• Enlarge doesn't give double advantage on grapple. Advantage is implied as granted from the size increase.
• Arcane Foci don't affect save DCs unless special items explicitly says so

Temporary Hit Points

Concentration checks and Injuries are based on only damage to hit points, not temporary hit points.

Magical Attunement

Instead of having up to 3 magical items players can attune to, characters can now have a number of items attuned equal to their proficiency mod.

Resurrection

• A character that is resurrected suffers 3D10 temporary sanity loss, in addition to any effect resulted from a potential Resurrection Fumble.
• Resurrection Fumble for Revivify is a D4 and for other spells is a D3 but increases with one die for each time before the character has died.
• Non Magical forms of Resurrection do not trigger a fumble roll.

Wilderness Rest

• By default an overnight rest only provides short rest based recovery. A Long Rest can apply while adventurering but the location has to be considered safe. A safe location is a location that doesn't require a night watch.
• The first short rest a PC takes in a day can be a 1-hour break. After the first short rest, all other short rests require overnight sleep (for races that sleep).

Slot System

Regardless of attunement slots and whether items take attunement, at a given time, a PC may wear no more than

1 Pair of Boots or other footwear

1 Armor

1 Cloak

1 Amulet, Periapt, or other item worn around the neck

1 Pair of Gloves or Gauntlets

2 items normally held in hands (weapon, shield, arcane foci) no more than 1 of which may be a shield providing benefits

2 Rings

1 Belt

1 Helmet or Hat

1 pair of Glasses, Lenses, or Goggles

1 Misc for items that doesn't fit other categories

Property

Running a Business

The player may choose to either spend downtime themselves, have the staff work, or get professional hirelings to work. The player character only accumulates downtime if they do it themselves.

Once per monthly Patch Notes any player, loyal servant, or faithful friend may attempt one wisdom or charisma based skillcheck DC20 per month and one free skill check relevant to the business. One success on these rolls increases property profit to 10% for the month, two successes increases it to 20%.
