>AnnouncementsWelcome back to Drowned Quest Redux! First thing: I made a Doc for all of Richard's journaling before and during the 2024 /qst/ King Tournament. If you were following the tourney, there's no new content, and I don't expect this to be useful for solving mysteries in-quest-- but if you're catching up and don't know what I'm talking about, you're missing about 11,000 words of noncanon but nevertheless pertinent Richard content. Read and/or reread here:

Moderate your expectations. Also, I have a truckload of new art, so keep an eye out for that (and check the filename for the artist credit).
>ScheduleOne a day, occasionally more if the first one was short. There may be sporadic half-updates (no options) if I start writing too late in the evening, sorry in advance. I am in the PST timezone.
>DiceWe use a 3d100 roll over degrees of success system with crits. The base DC is 50. Modifiers may be applied to the roll or to the DC as relevant. The # of rolls that match or exceed the DC determine the result. Probabilities may be found in the Dice and Mechanics pastebin.
The degrees are:
0 Passes = Failure
1 Pass = Mitigated Success
2 Passes = Success
3 Passes = Enhanced Success
0/1/100 = Critical Success / Critical Failure / Critical Success [regardless of other rolls]
>MechanicsThe (typical) MC has a pool of 14 Identity ("ID"), which may be considered both HP and the measure of her current sense of self. It may be lost through physical, metaphysical, or emotional damage. It may be regained through write-ins, designated options, and at reasonable narrative points, including sleep. It may be spent on a flat +10 bonus to rolls, as well as on more elaborate metaphysical effects. Dropping to 0 ID is bad.
