World of Heroes & Tyrants

A modular fantasy role-playing system in which characters take on the roles of heroes, tyrants, and other figures in a changing world. Attributes and skills are tested by rolling an exploding d6, adding the relevant value, and comparing the result with a target number. Magic allows players to describe custom spells, while the Game Master sets their difficulty; characters must learn spells through the skill system, and casting costs spell points equal to the spell’s difficulty.
