Stats
There are 6 types of stats in the game (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma), and the rolls are usually made up of the bonuses of these values.
Abilities
Each character usually starts with 3 abilities, which can be developed and expanded later on at given levels.
Movement
Each character has a movement speed (expressed in squares) that determines how far they can move in a turn. Movement can be simple walking, moving over difficult terrain, running, climbing, swimming, or flying.
Crashing into the wall
It deals D4 damage for each not walked squares.
Initiative
At the start of combat, each participant rolls a d20. The result of the roll determines the order of action.
Attack and Defense
Targeted Attack: The target's AC must be rolled (Body, Head, Arms, Legs).
Untargeted Attack: The general AC must be rolled.
Damage: The damage rolled is subtracted from the target's health.
Healing: Outside of combat, the maximum rollable value is entered.
Turn structure: Action
Usually, during a turn, characters can take one main action, which can be an attack, use an ability, or any other significant activity.
Turn structure: Bonus Action
Bonus actions are usually less powerful than a character's main action, but they can be important in strategic decisions. Also, if the character has such a feat, they can perform a main action as a bonus.
Typical bonus action actions: encourage, demotivate, intimidate, knock down, push away, help up, investigate, sprint, repairing and reloading weapons, equipping new weapons, escape.
Turn structure: Reaction
Characters can make a reaction in response to events outside of their circle. Reactions can be used during special events, such as avoiding an enemy attack.
Turn structure: Free Action
During the round, it is also possible to do free actions, such as moving, changing weapons once, reloading certain weapons. Of course, the short exchange of words also belongs here.
Experience and Development
The XP system works with individual experience points. Players earn XP for various activities and completing challenges.
At certain levels, players can acquire new abilities and feats.
HP
A character's health determines how much damage they can take before being incapacitated.
Knockout / KO
When a character's health drops to 0 or below 0, they faint. There is no KO for minions, they die instantly. At an NPC, the first damage after KO kills.
Incapacitated
When the player is in KO status, they can roll maximum 3 saves to get to a stable but passed out state. In case of 3 failures, the character does not die, but cannot be awakened until the end of the battle. When in KO, the healing received is halved.
Awakening after KO
NPC remains incapacitated. A character gets one health after a successful save, but another character has to wake them up. After a KO, the person cannot perform a main action in the next round.
Injury
KO + 0 failure -10% Max HP
KO + 1 failure -20% Max HP
KO + 2 failures -30% Max HP
KO + 3 failures -50% Max HP.

Outside of combat, the given amount of healing is maximum, don't need to roll.
Defense
By default, each character has their own base AC, which can be modified by the armor they wear.
We distinguish between two types of attacks: Non-targeted attack, Targeted attack.
For non-targeted attacks, defense is the base AC + Constitution bonus.
For targeted attacks, since they are divided into parts of the body here, the head, the chest, the hands and the legs have their own AC, which consists of the basic AC and the clothes worn.
Saving Throws
Characters can make saving throws in various situations, such as against traps. Saving throws have different attributes (e.g. Strength, Dexterity).
Ability Checks
When a character has to perform a certain task (e.g. break in a door, detect a trap), they make a skill check. These trials use the bonuses from the six basic stats.
Equipment and Item Usage: Weapons
Each weapon has its own attack value, damage type, range, and special properties. Each weapon also has durability, so they can break or be destroyed during use.
Equipment and Item Usage: Ammo
Ammunition is an item required for ranged weapons. These are one time use and may run out during combat.
All ranged attacks require ammo. The type of ammunition can affect damage, and certain ammunition can also cause special effects.

Drinks contain different liquids, such as water or wine.
Some drinks can have regenerative effects, while others can give temporary bonuses to attributes. Certain drinks can also have harmful effects, such as poisoning or intoxication.
It is mandatory to drink at least one liquid per day.

These items can serve a variety of purposes, such as tools, props, or trade goods.
Carrying Capacity

In certain places, it is possible for each player to sell and store the contents of their bag in a chest.

Markets and Shops
Players can buy or trade equipment at various locations. The price of the items may vary depending on the location, demand, and supply.
Rest
Resting gives characters a chance to recover resources such as health, spells, and certain abilities.
Usually only long rest is possible, but the given situation can bring this differently.
Challenge Target numbers
Each skill check, attack, or saving throw has a specific target number that must be rolled to succeed. The target number controls the difficulty of the task and is a key element of the gameplay.
Conditions
Characters can take on different states (e.g. stunned, intimidated, paralyzed) that affect their abilities.
Damage Resistance
Some characters, creatures, or items are resistant to certain types of damage, which reduced the amount of damage.
Definition of Feats
Feats are special abilities that allow characters to gain unique advantages or abilities, increasing their effectiveness in various areas of the game.
Gaining Feat
Feats can be earned by players when leveling up.
Effects of Feats
Each feat grants the character specific bonuses and modifiers that improve the character's performance in specific situations.
In some cases, when players acquire multiple related feats, they can be combined to provide extra benefits.
Relationships
Relationships reflect the relationships between characters and various groups, gangs, factions, or other characters. These relationships affect how the given group relates to the characters, in what way they help them, or maybe how they hinder them.
Each relationship has different levels that determine the extent of the relationship. These levels, just like in reality, can differ between 2 characters.
Possible relationships between characters: Lovers, Friends, Allies, Neutrals, Enemies, Unknowns.
Possible relationships between gangs: Allies, Friendly, Neutral, Enemy, At War.
Repair Relationships
Relationships can be improved by various actions.
For example, the characters help the group or another character in some way: they solve a problem or get an important resource for them.
Characters provide gang-level benefits to the group that increase the group's gratitude (e.g. business opportunities, protection services).
Damaging Relationships
Relationships can deteriorate if the characters perform actions that harm the interests of the group or other characters.
Betrayal or Breach: The trust of the group is broken by breaking an important promise.
Cause Damage: Characters directly or indirectly harm the group, such as attacking them or stealing their resources.
Gain Bad Reputation: Characters gain a negative reputation, causing the group to treat them with hostility.
Impact of Relationships
Relationship levels have a significant impact on gameplay.
Obtaining information: In the case of a high level of connection, groups and characters are happy to share information, while in the case of a low level of connection, they tend to remain silent or mislead.
Resources: Allies often grant access to special resources, such as weapons, magical items, or even accommodation.
Defense and Support Actions: Allied groups and characters can actively participate in the defense of the characters or support them in battles.
Registry of Relationships
Each relationship should be recorded in the section of relationships reserved for this option, which shows its current level, the development of the relationship, and the events that affected it. This helps you keep track of how you relate to different characters.
The relationship between the gangs is led by the storyteller, as it can be influenced not only by the actions of the players, but also by other aspects and events.
