Bonus Experience Points

Bonus Experience Points

Bonus Xp can be earned in a variety of ways. The bonus will be equal to 50 Xp per earned item as listed below multiplied by your level. Example - Timmy earns three of these and is 5th level. That will be a bonus of 750 bonus Xp.

1 - Actively roleplaying as your character for the whole game.
2 - Making sure that the DM is well hydrated and/or fed during the game.

3 - Coming up with interesting or original solutions for problems.

4 - Making the DM genuinely lose his shit laughing.

5 - Contributing food and/or drink (including candy) to the game.

6 - Getting 3 or more Nat-20s in a single game

7 - "What did your character learn this game?"
8 - At the DM's whim

It may seem ridiculous for me to award bonus Xp, but I don't run Xp-heavy games and I want a way to encourage the players to have a good time. Bonus Xp is an easy reward.

Attitude Reaction Chart

When a NPC meets a PC, or vice versa, or even PC to PC meeting, this simple chart will supply how the individual feels about the other. This is strictly for humanoids. Reactions for non-humanoids are decided by the DM (e.g. a gryphon meeting a demonic owl, etc).

Various House Rules

Various House Rules

• Stats are 4d6, drop the lowest
• Miniatures are required. If you don't have one then a very silly one will be provided for you to use.
• Death at negative hit points equal to your Constitution (14 Con = die at –14, etc)
• Crits don't need to be confirmed - a 20 always hits, a 1 always misses.
• Fumbles and Criticals utilize the Paizo Game Mastery Fumble and Hit cards. These cards, and their effects, override other rules where applicable. If you don't have the cards then the CriticalRoll App works exactly the same. You can also use the CriticalHit or CriticalFumble skills from Alexa.
• Critical multiples from the deck are added to the critical multiple for the weapon (i.e. weapon does x2, card gives x3, total is x5)
• All spellcasters are assumed to always have material components for all spells as long as those components cost less than 100gp
• Casting time for all spells is one round, unless designated as being longer than that in the spell description
• A Heal Check (DC 15) heals 1d4 damage, but can only be performed once per physical wound taken.
• Special abilities must be stated before their use in a round.
• Diagonal movement does not take up any extra distance per square moved, unless that square contains a mitigating circumstance (rough terrain, etc).

Alcohol Tolerance [General]

Feat: Faerie Friendship (General)

Feat: Faerie Friendship

Prerequisite: —

Benefit: You gain a +4 bonus on all Charisma-based skill checks made when interacting with creatures of the fey type or those possessing the fey subtype. This bonus applies to skills such as Bluff, Diplomacy, Gather Information, and Intimidate when used against such creatures.

Special: This feat reflects a natural affinity with fey and sylvan beings. Fey creatures begin encounters with you one step more favorable in attitude than normal (Hostile → Unfriendly, Unfriendly → Indifferent, etc.), at the DM’s discretion.

Feat: Elemental Friendship (General)

Feat: Elemental Friendship

Elementals are quite taken with you. +4 to CHA skill rolls when dealing with elementals. Please note that this feat only affects a single type of elemental (e.g. air, earth, fire, water, magma, lightning, et al), and to affect different types of elementals the feat must be taken multiple times. This does, however, effect anything within the elemental type; for example, someone with Fire Elemental Friendship will get the bonus when dealing with fire elementals, fire memphits, magmin, salamanders, etc.
