Homebrew and House Rules

All of my accepted house rules are in use for this game, and that page also has Faerûnian homebrew and additional options for the Cypher System.

Play-by-Chat Structure and Guidelines

Adventuring! will run on a 48-hour tick system where players will have 48 hours (ish) to get their updates in, converse about strategy, ask questions of the GM, etc., and then the GM will update with outcomes and move the game forward. More details can be found here.

Cypher Tables

Treat all cypher types as manifest by default. Roll a d20 and use that result for which table to roll on (they're all built as percentile tables, so you can roll d20 + d100 for both together).

Roll Origin/Type
1–4 Core/Manifest (p.382)
5–8 Core/Subtle (p.383)
9–11 Godforsaken
12–20 Core/Fantastic (p.382

Most instances work in the game and could be represented as at least one kind of physical item, or roll on the cypher form table in Godforsaken (which would be a combined roll of d20 + d100 + d100).
