The rules for the game are easy to learn and support a lot of stunts, high-octane action, and dynamic character progression.
* Multiple Worlds: With a large number of different worlds in the Concord, there are no limits to the variation of missions and adversaries.
* Science Fantasy: Play as a 9' Ogre Investigator or a 3' Marmoseti Locksmith. Use mysticism and rituals as well as guns and lab-equipment. Travel by gate or aether-fuelled rocket car.
* Story-driven rules: Created to be streamlined and fast-paced, the game system is easy to learn and adaptive to all situations. The game is designed to keep page-flipping to a minimum during game sessions, for maximum velocity roleplaying action.
* Veterancy system: The veterancy system lets you level up in different situations. If your character is involved in a lot of heists, she will soon be a heist specialist, no matter her additional occupation.
* Modular setting: This game offers you the ultimate freedom. There is a section in the book for creating your own worlds, creatures and playable classes, and enough room in the multiverse to include them. If you want restrictions, feel free to use the parameters already in place. If you want creative freedom, start making all the worlds and creatures you want for your campaign!
* Words matter: All rolls in the game can be subject to Support and Cripple effects. These are standardized bonuses you get from items, abilities or conditions. This means that every time you wonder "Should my wings give me a bonus on jumping?" or "Should the bullet in my shoulder give me a penalty in swimming?” The only thing the GM has to wonder about is "YES" or "NO".

The System

The Strangewood Studios Pentivity system is a new and action-oriented dice system that utilises Twelve sided dice. From the beginning, the main goal has been to create a system that combines the thrill of uncertainty with the flow a good story deserve.
The core principle of the system is that you roll a number of 12 sided dice equal to you skill-level (1-3), choose one of them to keep and add bonuses from items and basic abilities, and compare the result against a Target Number (TN) set by the game master. All effects from rolls (like damage from attacks, speed of a climb, compliance of an interrogation subject or tastyness of a cake) is depending on how many times you double your result (rolling 10 when the TN is 5 gives you 1 additional effect, 15 gives you 2 and so on).
All players also have something called "Veterancy" in different fields, which will allow them to do stunts, activate abilities of simply succeed when the dice's wont play along. Veterancy point recover over time, so choose your battles carefully!
The book is going to be about 200 pages in standard letter format (8.5X11 in), with thick matte paper and hardback cover. It will be full color and brimming with beautiful art. It will contain information on the setting, the rules for the game, and a lot of inspiration and thoughts on how to create fun and exciting adventures!
