Official rule for damage exceeding strength score

Hello, this answer may be obvious but I wanted to be sure. If you take damage in excess of your strength stat in a single hit do you just go to zero and follow the standard rules for being broken by damage (ex: character with strength of 2 takes a damage 3 hit). That is how I read it but the book ha...

Re: Dragonbane Beta v3 Rulebook Feedback - Chapter 5 Magic

I’m unfamiliar with the earlier magic systems. How often did mishaps occur? Was the magic about the same power level? I’m just curious to have a frame of reference.

Re: Dragonbane Beta v3 Rulebook Feedback - Chapter 5 Magic

I’m totally ok with the mishap table having rough results. Like you said it is optional. I think I would feel better about it if the aging was reversible too. It wouldn’t have to be easy, but an established path to recovery would be nice.

Defense clarification in published errata

Hello all, I’m sorry if bringing this up is beating a dead horse. I have been following the forums for a few weeks trying to better understand all of free leagues games.

Re: Dragonbane Beta v3 Rulebook Feedback - Chapter 5 Magic

I can see your point. I would say having two separate instances seems like a bit much. I would prefer if it was only on a roll of 19. Then if you rolled that you would roll like a d6, on 1-3 younger and 4-6 older. Another alternative would be link it to the power level of the spell. Casting a spell ...

Re: Dragonbane Beta v3 Rulebook Feedback - Chapter 5 Magic

I agree that the aging mishaps are too extreme. I would prefer that they expire on a roll of one like the others. The magic can be very powerful but it is definitely more balanced then most other game systems. I have been play testing a wizard for a bit and have felt the sting of aging and burning u...
