Or really any other d20 system. I know it's used in a lot of other games, not just D&D, but that's my main focus with it. The main change I would have between 3.5 (most SRD's I can find are 3.5 or Pathfinder) and 5e would be skills since they no longer have ranks.

I'm looking for a softcoded base chargen and functions for a d20 game.

@Thenomain

I'll give it a look this weekend, thanks for the suggestions.

@Three-Eyed-Crow @Ganymede

You're both right. Don't need noble houses. I just wanted to include them. Hmm. I'll rethink that, then.

@Ganymede

Can't say that. People enjoy political RP too much to say no. I wouldn't let PC's be in charge (to start, maybe never), but people enjoy playing the noble with the money. I would have to create some sort of Social currency to give them something to focus on (the group championing your name brought back the mayor's kidnapped child, so you get more renown for it).

Look at it like Changeling. You have the chance to play pretty much any sort of character you want. All of them are useful and important. I would, ideally, enjoy something along those lines.

@Thenomain

Can't say I've seen them. I've been reading through D&D 5e before going back over prior editions to see which ones would "fit the best" with my idea.

Of course. Depending on who they are and what they do, the Cost of Living would be X. Plus taxing and having to pay for shop space and materials and the like. There wouldn't really be much ability to horde unless you're a member of like one of the Noble houses and have an "allowance from the piggybank" as it were.

I've had an idea kicking around my brainholder for a while now. A D&D game that has elements of an actual game in it. I don't mean like a MUD, but an actual MUSH with parts that are a game and more than just "a place to rp."

You would earn xp and gold as an Adventurer. You'd be able to hire adventuring troupes to go reclaim relics/artifacts in your name as a Noble. You'd be able to make a name for yourself and earn dat money by being a Crafter. Or you could be any other sort of general civvie type and own a tavern or inn or work on the docks or be a guard and the like.

Before I put too much time and energy into this, I want to know if there'd be interest in a different type of game than most of the MU's around here.

Basic start. I'll prettify it once I get more time and more input.

*Note to other games: feel free to yoink that and post it. Change it as you want/need. All I ask is that you add a little note at the bottom that says Pinball@Reno
