FBH Fantasia Second

System

Basic Actions

In FBH Fantasia 2nd (FBHF2) you roll all actions with a D20 + Attribute + stat + bonus (from equipment, magic, or whatever). All actions that require a roll are taken like this.

Character Creation

A person is a combination of natural abilities and those learned through life experience, nature and nurture. Nature abilities tend to be broader, but you will receive less points to divide among them, and they are more difficult to raise, as they are mostly inborn, or at least long trained traits.

Nature

Nature is the stuff that you're born with, or develop as a result of your physical body.

Attribute

Each Attribute starts at 1, and a starting character has a further 12 points to divide between them. No attribute may go above 5

Power - Your body's brute physical power

Speed - Your body's natural speed

Grace - Your dexterity and skill at fine movements

Endurance - Your ability to stay standing in difficult situations.

Perception - The sharpness of your senses

Logic - Your skill at solving puzzles and riddles

Memory - Your ability to remember facts

Beauty - How good you look

Charm - How good at talking to people you are socially

After character creation, raising an Attribute costs 5 XP per level

Experiences

These are a lot like white wolf backgrounds. The events in your life that have shaped you as to who you are.

Magic

Magic is a constant in the world of FBHF2. Most everyone contains a combination of innate magical energies, said to be the remains of the blood of the five goddesses, mixed with humanity's own when she gave birth to the first humans. The blood of the goddesses gives each human a level of enhancement and a measure of the primal goddess's power. The question is now what you have, but how much of each? Rank each blood from 1, to 5. You gain all bonuses up to that level. This also represents your bonus for effects of that cast a spell, with each point in an effect added together to form a total pool. If you use an effect purely from one bloodline, that dicepool is doubled, however this creates strong limits on what can be achieved.

In general, the more an effect defies normal physics, the harder it is to achieve. So for instance, if you were to teleport across a room with pure Distance, this would be far more difficult than to jump the distance with distance + breath.

Note that even if a spell is successfully cast it may miss or otherwise fail. In general there are three ways to channel magic to create a successful effect. First you may channel magic through a skill. For instance to take an inhumanly long leap you'd roll Distance + Breath, and then athletics + power roll for the leap.

Higher levels of the divine blood maybe developed in play, through the refinement of one's spiritual essence. It requires 5 XP to gain one level of the divine blood. Gaining divine blood above 6 will give further, TBH bonuses.

Combat

Initiative

At the beginning of the combat, each player rolls initiative: d20 + Grace + perception + bonuses. Everyone must their declare their first rounds actions and stance, beginning with the lowest initiative.

Stance

Each round you may take one of three stances, each of which give an escalating bonus known as a stance bonus. The stance bonus begins at +2 and each additional point maybe purchased at 1 XP, applied across all stances.

Offensive: +X Attack -Half X Defense

Defensive: +X Defense -Half X Attack

Neutral: No bonus or penalty

Stance persists until the next action a person takes. So if you roll high initiative on the first round and take an offensive stance you maybe stuck in it the next round if your initiative goes bad.
