DESTINY roleplaying system

ADD TO WISHLIST >

After 15 years of the EPICS system, it has been redesigned as the DESTINY system - a new, slightly different system is presented, with wonderful art, clearer presentation, and more!

DESTINY- Deserve to Survive! The old days when players could sit around the table, roll a few dice, and win the day (while barely paying attention and playing on cell phones) are gone. Now the players will have to think about their characters and role-play as well as fight, if they want to survive. This is the new age of gaming, where characters are designed as they are played. This is DESTINY!

With one of the most original RPG game systems, characters begin as basic concepts (with few scores), but are detailed more and more as they are played. The Actors receive Sand Points for thinking fast, good role-playing and adding detail to their characters. But don't let your hourglass run out of sand! The rules cover animals, equipment, super-powers, vehicles and more.

The system is simple enough for beginners but probably is best played by more experienced gamers who like to act as well as roll dice and kill monsters. Simulating the "reality" of movies and comics, characters who have more "Influence" over the story are more likely to survive - as long as the player earns enough points by playing well.

Don't be fooled - this is a new type of roleplaying system, not a hack job of some system before. Rules for character creation, skills, being wounded and even equipment are not what you are used to... there isn't even a score for life points!

The game allows for super-fast character generation (less than a minute in some cases!), but characters grow through game play and become as detailed, if not more, than in other role-play game systems. Important characters can be created by the Director with many details - or thugs with just a single number, all within the rules of the game. Complete rules are provided to make up any kind of character, including those with super-powers. The DESTINY system is all you should ever need to play!

With a focus on role-playing over rolling dice, the DESTINY system can easily be modified as a guide to awarding role-playing for other role-playing games as well.

Simple, Easy, Basic, Fun! Create any kind of character or world with DESTINY!

PURCHASER
Recently, I soloed my way through DmDave’s Dungeon & Lairs: Skeleton Tomb. (5 pages, for Fifth Edition D&D). To play this I used the Destiny Roleplaying System (41 pages at DriveThruRPG). This d6 system can be used for any setting. Because I have played this adventure before, I used the Solo Adventure Resource: The Dungeon Oracle (Bimler) as the solo engine. I created a fighter, a cleric, a wizard, and Dela, a priestess of the Frog God. Her signature spell enabled her to turn anything into frogs, slime, or pond water. The Destiny system is very unique. Attributes and armor affect the story, not your chance to hit. There are no hit points, there is sand. You can get more sand as you play (think hourglass). Also, when a PC’s sand is used, experience is gained. So, my fighter ended up getting more experience than the others because he saw a lot of action and his dice rolls were terrible. The random quest that came up was to get the name of the dead warrior in the main sarcophagus.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
