House Rules

---

Rule Changes

• Grapple
  • Monster higher level than the party can't be critically grabbed (immobilized), they also can't critically grab (immobilize) the party. (You can still immobilize/get immobilized by other means)
• Out of Combat Healing
  • Unless I specifically state that you can't restore to max hp after combat, always assume you can just restore to max HP.
• Recovery
  • If you are "dead" for more than a full round, you can move your initiative right after the person that healed you.
• Leap
  • lowers fall distance by 5ft.
• Hidden(and similar) Conditions
  • When targeting a willing ally, you can spend one extra action to forgo rolling a flat chat and hit automatically.
• Fascinated
  • Fascinated condition ends if a creature uses a hostile action against you, but not your allies (I might allow allies if they are animal companions/familiars or a person you share a bond with)
• Free Archetype
  • Can be taken at level 1 as a bonus feat (still takes a level 2 free archetype slot once leveled up)
• Gradual Attribute Boost
  • First boost to a +5 can be taked at level 10 or later; Second boost to a +5 can be taken at level 15 or later; First boost to a +6 can be taken at level 20.

Class Changes

Kineticist

  • Can only be used once per combat

Witch

• Familiar of Ongoing Misery
  • When you sustain a hex, the enemy rolls a wisdom save against your spell DC.
    • Critical Success The target loses the negative condition that you tried to prolong and is immune against Ongoing Misery for 10 minutes.
    • Success Same as critical success but the target is not immune.
    • Failure The negative condition prolongs by one round.
    • Critical Failure The negative condition prolongs by two rounds.

Banned Shit

Spells

• Tailwind
• Mantle of the Melting Heart

Items

• Phantasmal Doorknob

Misc

• Anything that gives a free archetype dedication, Ancient Elf, Elf Atavism for example.

Hero Points

• Everyone gets 1 hero point every 45 minutes. (starting from session start)
• Hero points no longer reset at start of session, instead they reset to 1 at long rest.
• Spending a hero point allows you to reroll 1d20, if rolled below 11 it gets a +10.
• You can spend 1 hero point to do whatever the heck you want, but I have to allow it (you can try to bribe by using more hero points), but the GM gets 1 villain point as a trade off (example: spellcaster can try to cast any spell from their tradition)

  Villain Points

• GM starts with 0 villain points (these reset at start of session)
• GM can use villain points the same way players can use hero points, there is no cap to how many villain points a GM can have
• If the GM uses a villain point to enforce the "whatever" rule, every player gets a hero point

  Class Based Hero Actions

• do not generate villain points (doesn't count for multiclass)
  • Psychic - You can spend a hero point the same way you would spend a focus point
  • Oracle - Use a cursebound action without increasing your cursebound status
  • Sorcerer - Use a spellshape as a free action
  • Animist - Change your primary apparition for 1 action
  • Inventor - Forgo rolling for unstable
  • Druid - Automatically be able to communicate with an animal or plant (depending on your empathy)
  • Monk - Use flurry of blows without increasing your MAP

Critical & Fumble deck

• Players have access to critical and fumble deck
• GM does not

Adjusted Spellcasting

• Prepared casters can choose a spell slot they still have available and spend an extra action to cast any spell in their spell list/book, this gives the spell a concentrate and manipulate trait and it removes subtle trait
• Spontaneous casters can change a spell in their repertoire with a refocus activity
