Welcome to AscendantThe world of Ascendant was torn asunder by a great magical cataclysm. A more extensive backstory is available on the website www.ascendantrpg.com. All that stands is a few scattered pockets of humanity that, by the intervention of the god Death, were spared. The world is in total magical chaos now. In the years following the cataclysm, Death saw the chaotic magic energy starting to concentrate in select gifted people. Upon noticing these beings she decided to enlist their help in rebuilding the world to a more stable state. Shortly after the characters start they will be contacted, via a dream, by Death herself. She will enlist them to become her “Reapers” which is also accompanied by a large black scythe being marked on their back. Since Death is still reeling from the aftermath of the cataclysm her contact with the players will be minimal and infrequent. However, this does give the players the ability to return from death with her good graces at a cost. You start in this world as a being gifted with the power to manipulate the energy in and around you. You will become one of Death’s Reapers and progress to levels of greatness. Welcome to Ascendant, Reaper!

Character CreationWhen creating your character imagine the world that your character has been confronted with their entire life. Your character only knows the desolation and struggle of life after the cataclysm. What has your character struggled with so far? Was their family destroyed by the fallout of the cataclysm? Create a list of motivations and character traits outside of just your stats that will enable you to have a well rounded character. That being said, here’s all the relevant stat creation that must go into your character.

Character Checklist:Pick your character’s primary skill tree: Martial, Subterfuge, Thaumaturgy, Divine, Nature, or Lore.Create your stats. Stats start at 6. Then distribute 60 points between them. No stat can go over 20 with your initial allocation.Spend your experience on skills. New characters start with 2500 points of experience. Don’t forget your Health and Power skills.New characters start with 25 equipment points. Buy your equipment with equipment points.Finalize your stats with bonuses from skills or equipment. Then fill in the appropriate stat attributes.Find your martial and magic bonuses to hit from your combat skills. Then tally any bonuses to hit from skills or stats on top of that.Tally your Health and Power points. Fill out your character name and description.

Stats:Your character has 7 stats. Strength(Str), Physique(Phy), Stamina(Sta), Agility(Agi), Intelligence(Int), Wisdom(Wis), Concentration (Con). All stats are measured at a scale of 1 to 100 and beyond that in extreme cases. The scale repeats itself and can be figured beyond 100. For most game play few things will be over 100. There is a potential for players to get over 100 but that will much later in the game(in the form of an expansion to higher Ranks of play). To start the game all stats start at 6. Then the players put 60 points into their stats any way they choose up to a maximum of 20. The stats may be raised beyond 20 later through skill points or enchantments, though.

Strength:Raw power to lift and carry, also causes more damage with melee or ranged weapons.

Damage modifier applies to martial attacks including Bows. Characters with a low strength will have a negative damage modifier. Those characters simply lack the strength to wield a Bow. When wielding a 2 handed weapon apply 1.5 times the damage modifier(rounded up). When dual wielding both weapons gain the damage modifier. You can hurl up to 1/20th of your carrying capacity. The range for hurling is 40 ft. It does damage equal to the weight of the object Thrown plus any modifiers. Keep in mind the awkwardness of a given item. If it is much larger than the person throwing it the GM can modify or disallow the ability to throw it or carry an item.

Stamina:Duration extension increases the amount of time you can maintain strenuous labor. For example: The average person can dig ditches for 4 hours straight. Your duration extension will add hours to that task. For a task that takes more energy like sprinting it will add its modifier in minutes. For more mundane tasks like walking or jogging you would add double the modifier in hours to the task. Ultimately your GM will decide the scale at which he will allow you to use the modifier it is there as a guide for your GM, not a hard rule. The hit point buffer is how far the player can go negative in Health before they die. They can continue to function on that buffer for 40 rounds plus the duration extension granted by their stamina. After that duration if they have not been brought back to a positive amount of Health they die.

The duration modifier from stamina will change the number of minutes a sprint can be maintained. Agility may be used for determining initiative(see the Combat section).

Concentration:Measures your ability to deal with mental stress. A character with high concentration can stay cool under heavy mental pressure. Concentration determines the amount of Power you regain from meditating. The amount you get per 10 minutes of meditation is listed on the chart. Concentration also provides bonus spell damage or healing. The bonus is multiplied by the number of focus a spell costs. For damage over time, or heal over time, spells apply the bonus damage every time it does damage or healing. Instant cast spells and abilities also gain the damage/healing modifier. (See combat section for more details). Concentration may be used for determining initiative(see the Combat section).

CombatCombat in Ascendant is very fast paced and streamlined. One of the exciting features of Ascendant is that you can have an interesting combat without slowing the game to a crawl. Damage is fixed on all attacks. i.e. A sword does 10 damage per hit or a spell does 40 damage on a hit etc. Each attack has a more dynamic range of damage than the example given, but it is fixed for each session.

Everyone starts with 8 melee defense and 5 magic defense. When you make an attack, roll a 20 sided die and add your total bonus to hit to the roll. If your total is higher than your opponent’s defense, you hit. A roll of a 20 will always be a hit unless their defense is more than 20 higher than your attack total. A roll of a 1 is always a miss unless their defense is more than 20 lower than your attack total. If you attack and hit by more than 10 it is a critical hit. When you crit with a weapon or spell you double the damage or effect. If you attack and miss by more than 10 it is a fumble. When you fumble with a weapon the target will get a free counter attack. A fumble with a ranged weapon will result in accidentally hitting an ally if there are any nearby. If you fumble with a spell it bounces off your target and hits you instead.

The combat organization uses 6 second rounds and then the standard measure of time, minutes(10 rounds), and hours(600 rounds) etc. A round is enough time to make up to two actions. A character may only do each of the available actions once per round, but may select up to two different actions to execute in a round if desired. The exception to this rule is movement. A character may move their entire movement speed in a round, but may not perform any other actions. Normal actions available to the characters are: make an attack, move half your speed(see Agility), gather focus(when gathering focus your movement speed option is reduced to one third your movement instead of half), cast a spell, get up from being knocked down, sheath a weapon, or draw a weapon. For rapid weapon switching a character may instantly drop a weapon, but must suffer the risks that come along with doing so. Which means they could drop a weapon, draw another one, and still get an attack with the new weapon.

At the begining of each combat the GM and the players all roll for initiative. Roll a 20 sided die and add your characters Agility or Concentration, whichever is higher. Whoever has the highest total roll is the first player to act with the other players following clockwise from that player regardless of the other rolls. If the GM beats the highest player’s rolls then the GM acts first.

Each character has Health points. Death occurs at 0 Health(or sometimes less than zero Health if your character has a hit point buffer from their Stamina). Death in Ascendant is painful but not necessarily permanent. There are shrines dedicated to death scattered throughout the land where you can implore Death to offer a Reaper’s soul another chance to continue. Each town starts with a Death Shrine at the center of it as this was the conduit she used to save their town from destruction. Death will return you to life for a price. She will expect the next bit of your experience as tribute in return for reviving you. It will cost you 300x your highest Rank in experience. If your highest Rank is 4 and you die, you miss out on the next 1200 experience points awarded to you. Someone must physically take your corpse to the shrine. If every one in the party dies Death will eventually get around to taking them to the death shrine and reviving them, however the penalty for this is double the normal penalty. The Divine specialty class, Priest, has the ability to return people from the dead without visiting the shrine, and at higher levels even lowering the penalty.

Spell CastingTo cast a spell you start by declaring that you are gathering spell focus. You get 1 spell focus for every round you concentrate. You may move up to 1/3 of your movement speed while gathering focus. You may also make a a single attack on a turn that you gather focus as long as you don’t move. You may gather focus on the same round you use an instant cast spell or ability, but that would be your two actions. After you have gathered enough focus points to cast a spell, the actual spell casting is instantaneous. Therefore, if you have a spell that requires 4 focus and 40 Power you are able to cast that spell on the 4th round of gathering focus. Once the spell is cast you expend the 40 Power and the spell goes off. If your Power was drained below 40 and you can no longer cast that spell you either need to redirect that focus to a lesser spell or fall victim to focus burn. You may hold spell focus points for 10 rounds. The moment one focus expires your entire focus pool explodes. Unused spell focus points will cause focus burn which drains you of 20 Power and 20 Health per character Rank per focus point. Be careful not to overcharge yourself with focus. The exception is ritual spells that take a minute or longer, they do not follow the spell focus rules. When casting one of those spells you must declare that at the beginning of the ritual. If you take damage you will be interrupted and the Power required for the spell lost. You may direct any focus you have built up to any spell in your repertoire at any given time. For example: you were saving to cast a spell that required 8 focus. After building up 5 focus points you realize that your friend needs to be healed you can immediately spend 1 of those focus to cast a healing spell to save your friend. You then have the 4 remaining spell focus to use or suffer burn. Instant cast spells happen instantly but you may only use one spell or ability per round. Instant spells do still count as one of your characters actions for the round as well.

RestYou can choose to rest 2 times a day. Rest requires eating, drinking, and sitting down. It takes half an hour and you must have at least 3 hours between rest periods. Once you have rested that full half hour you will regain half of your lost Health and Power minus any permanent reductions in place. Your rest can be interrupted. Within reason, you must get back to resting right away or have to start your rest completely over. This will be left to the GM’s discretion. After a full nights sleep, you will awaken with full Health and Power minus any permanent reductions in place.

Skills cost 100 experience points(exp) times the Rank of the skill per skill level. Rank 1 skills cost 100 exp per level. Rank 2 costs 200 exp per level and so on. Skills may not be purchased mid-session. Skills have 10 skill levels per Rank unless otherwise noted. Due to the fact that certain skills do not scale well they are purchased as “flat skills” with a one time higher cost listed with the skill.

Ascendant currently only goes up to Rank 5. However, further Ranks will come in an expansion to the game taking the characters up to Rank 10. A Rank 10 character would have a nearly god like level of abilities. Every skill has an implied prerequisite of level 10 of the previous Rank. Some skills may be new to a character of a given Rank and in order to purchase those there is an implied prerequisite of another skill of that Rank from that class.

The skills are all organized in a tree format. You can invest points into any skill you like as long as you have the appropriate pre-requisites. You can branch into other trees on a sliding scale. This means if you have one skill tree up to Rank 3 then you can have access to another tree that goes up to Rank 2 and a 3rd tree that has Rank one skills. These trees do not have to be taken in a specific order. If you are Rank 4 in one tree, that means you may have up to 3 other trees, with one being a maximum of Rank 3, a max Rank 2 and a Rank 1 tree. You may have 3 other Rank 1 trees as they do not fit that cap. To buy into a different major skill tree it costs 1000 exp times the number of current trees you have. EX. If a martial character wants subterfuge skills he must pay 1000 exp to have access to them. Then if he wants to also pickup some divine skills he will have to pay 2000 exp to buy into that tree. Each major skill tree has multiple specializations within it. Whatever tree you pick to start is your primary tree and cannot be changed.

The six primary skill trees are: Martial, Subterfuge, Thaumaturgy, Divine, Nature, and Lore. All of their skills are listed in the Classes Section.

For skills that raise an attack, magic or martial, you will base your attack on your skill in the type of weapon or spell being used. EX. Your Two Handed weapon skill does you no good if you pick up a One Handed weapon. Or, if you’re a Thaumaturge that crosses into another magic tree, your Arcane Power skill only applies to casting Thaumaturge spells.

Generic skills follow their own selection and building rules. They do not fall under the tree limits of regular advancement. Health, Power, Stat, and Magic Resistance skills are available to all classes. Each Rank has a prerequisite of 10 points in the previous Rank and any skill of the same Rank. That means you cannot buy into Rank 2 Health until you have at least one other Rank 2 skill and 10 levels in Rank 1 Health. EX. If you want to buy Rank 3 Health then you would have to have already purchased 10 points in Rank1 Health, 10 points in Rank 2 Health, and have a Rank 3 skill. The exception is the Magic Resistance Skill which is a flat skill paid once for the entire Rank.

Generic Skills: Health Rank 1:Increase your Health points by 10.Health Rank 2:Increase your Health points by 12.Health Rank 3:Increase your Health points by 15.Health Rank 4:Increase your Health points by 20.Health Rank 5:Increase your Health points by 25.

Power Rank 1:Increase your Power points by 10.Power Rank 2:Increase your Power points by 12.Power Rank 3:Increase your Power points by 15.Power Rank 4:Increase your Power points by 20.Power Rank 5:Increase your Power points by 25.

Stat Skills:You can increase your stats by spending experience points in the following skills: Weight Lifting –StrengthBody Building – PhysiqueAerobics – StaminaAcrobatics - AgilityStudy – IntelligenceFaith – WisdomBrain Bending – Concentration

Stat skills increase the stat listed by the following amount depending on the Rank of the skill:Rank 1 and 2 – Increases the stat by 1 for every 2 skill pointsRank 3 and 4 – Increases the stat by 1 for every skill pointRank 5 – Increases the stat by 2 for every skill point

Magic Resistance Skill:Your character has infused himself with magical energy to make him more resilient to magic attacks. Available to all classes like the Power or Health skill. Each Rank has a prerequisite of the previous Rank and any skill of the same Rank. Resistance Rank 1: Flat Skill cost: 800. Increases your magical Defense by 3.Resistance Rank 2: Flat Skill cost: 1600. Increases your magical Defense by 4.Resistance Rank 3: Flat Skill cost: 2400. Increases your magical Defense by 5.Resistance Rank 4: Flat Skill cost: 3200. Increases your magical Defense by 6.Resistance Rank 5: Flat Skill cost: 4000. Increases your magical Defense by 7.

ClassesTo become 3rd Rank your character must pick a specialty. Whichever tree you select continues as your primary tree. EX. You may get to Rank 4 as a Defender then pick up Rank 3 Weapon Master as a 3rd Rank tree. The new tree still counts as a secondary tree.

EquipmentEquipment is the level of gear a character should have at any given level of experience. Due to their isolation, Reapers are mostly responsible for gathering and creating their own equipment. As such equipment in Ascendant progresses with your character rather than the typical RPG where you buy or find it. For every 100 experience your character has you have 1 equipment point. You may change your equipment between sessions as often as you like. When getting rid of a piece of equipment you are refunded those equipment points to spend on something else. You cannot equip an item above your highest Rank. There is a special top tier of equipment meant for characters that have reached the top end of experience. This equipment level is still Rank 5, but denoted as 5+. The 5+ items with a requirement of 10+U means that you must have level 10 in the required skill and have purchased your Ultimate Skill. A 5+ item with a requirement of U means that you must have your Ultimate Skill. Rank 0 items still require Rank 1 skill and are meant as introductory items for new characters.

Cloth ArmorCloth Armor provides a bonus to your martial defense, and also increases your Power. You must possess a certain Cloth Armor Training skill level to wear each item. Cloth Armor may be worn under, or over, metal or Leather Armor. When doing this, however, you only receive half of the martial defense bonus(rounded down) from the Cloth Armor. You still receive the full Power boost from the Cloth Armor, though. The armor below is listed by Rank with the appropriate skill requirements for that Rank. The cost is the number of equipment points each item takes to purchase.

Wearing any Metal Armor also reduces your ability to hide and move stealthily if you cross class into Subturfuge while wearing Metal Armor. The hiding and move silently penalty is -10 times the Rank of the armor you’re wearing. The hiding penalty may be reduced with the use of a cloak(see the miscellaneous equipment section).

Town Upgrade System:Players get to take a role in developing their town. Just like creating equipment this is what goes on in the town between adventures. The players are given a certain amount of points between each session to develop their town. This can be done through democratic process, in the event of a tie the vote goes to the GM who plays the role of townspeople. The players may want to take turns being in charge of the development, or just assign one of the players to the duty. Ultimately it is up to the players with some input from the GM.

A starting town has a production value of 400 and a population of 400. Production value is the amount of town points the group gets between each adventure. Production value is the population plus any modifiers. Some upgrades will add to the town’s production value without increasing population. Population is the number of people in the town. Because Reapers live outside of time they do not age like normal humans and the population can grow significantly in what may seem like a short period of time for them. We only see the Reapers during the highlights of their adventures. The town will likely get attacked when the Reapers are not there. When this happens the town must be prepared to defend themselves. If there is not enough defense parts of the town may get damaged and require town points to be repaired. The further the Reapers delve into the wilderness the more attention they will likely draw to the town.

Game Master Section:*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!* WARNING *!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*

Reading beyond this point is for Game Masters only! If you are an aspiring game master then you may also proceed. :-)

The world of ascendant is fairly versatile. You can tailor your own starting area to your preference. Your game should start a generation after the cataclysm. The town the players start in should be neutral and ready to be molded by them. Because of the isolation each town will have its own way of doing things. You will be able to incorporate this when your players start to travel. The next town they encounter after their own can be excited or incredibly skeptical, dark and dreary or a bastion of light. They will likely have their own group of Reapers that protect their town.

Level BreakdownsHere are some level breakdowns to give a rough guideline for different experience levels. I’ve shared with you multiple tables here to showcase how the characters will progress given the number of skills they have maxed out for each level(also account-ing for the 2000pts for specialization). Most classes have 4 or 5 skills that they will be maxing out just for class skills. Then accounting for Health, Power, magic defense, and stats to fill the characters out even more you will have many skills potentially leveld up. Each table lists the indivudual Rank cost with a running total in the final column.

This table assumes the character will have 5 maxed out skills for their Rank:

Rank Cost TotalRank 1 5000 5000Rank 2 10000 15000Rank 3 17000 32000Rank 4 20000 52000Rank 5 25000 77000

You can use these as a rough guideline for determining your monsters defense for characters of a given Rank. Keep in mind that these charts are absolutes for near the top of a given Rank. Use your judgement based on where they are progression wise. The left column shows the defense of a given monster versus the aver-age ability for a character of that Rank to hit, miss, or crit. The 20s with asterisks show a hit only on the roll of a natural 20. The number ranges listed outside of the box in the smaller italic font are outside of the suggested range for the given Rank.Rank 1 martial (+10 to hit):

MonstersThe following monsters are given as an example of monsters you can use to throw at your players. You may also develop your own monsters. I have many more monsters coming in a monster book as a future update. If you are particularly fond of a monster you have designed please feel free to submit your monster idea at www.ascendantrpg.com. The monsters listed below are listed with the Rank of player that they should go against. A - after the Rank means it is at the lower end of the Rank and a + means it is at the higher end of the Rank. Monster Ranks with neither a + or - mean they are towards the middle of their Rank. For extremely high end monsters you will see a 5+U which means they are monsters designed specifically for groups who have leveled to the point of acquiring their ultimate skills. Monsters with Boss after their Rank are designed to be end bosses for adventures. Boss monsters are designed to be full encounters on their own and should have minimal backup. Monsters listed with more than one attack get each of their attacks per round as long as they have a full round’s worth of actions. However, if they are knocked over, or have to move during their round they only get their 1st attack. When rolling initiative for a group of monsters use the highest monster’s initiative in the group. Please excuse the lack of order with these monsters. In the monster book they will be ordered more appropriately.
