A rule of cool dm who focuses on character moments and cinematics over anything pure numbers based. I love various action films, anime and the like, so the worlds I host typically are ones that are very bombastic. RP is also very necessary, and so I implore you to immerse yourself, and really help craft a story with me. Below are my very few rules, check em out before you request me. I also post them on every quest.
If a story cutscene is happening and you decide you HAVE to intrude on the scene, whatever happens is of your own doing. Many cutscenes happen to either set the next scene, progress the story, or empower the players/give the players emotions to think on. Your jack of all trades, super characters don't need to fix/solve EVERY issue just because they can. If your character does have an answer to everything, they will be treated as the face of the party, as well as be the focal point of the antagonist's ire. If you wish to be the main character, you'll be treated as such.
Be chill. Be nice to others, don't start verbal boxing matches because you're upset. You're free to comment or voice opinions, but don't actively antagonize someone. If its in rp however? Do as you please.
Pvp is frowned upon, but if your character decides to heel turn, whatever the party/antagonists do to them, thats of their own choice.
CUSTOM MECHANICS:
Potions: can be taken with a BA, max healing if you use them with an action. Double max if you go full traditional and pull them from your inventory first as an action, and use a BA to drink.
Clash system: When taking the dodge action, you can gamble with a "Clash". By declaring a clash, you and the foe will roll d20s. The higher d20 will overtake the other in the clash and deal max damage of whichever attack they choose to use. The attacks must be equal in total range, and must have a "To-Hit" roll. E.g A longsword and an axe, or Inflict wounds and a Burning Smite. Once a "Clash" has been used, the player must make D8 roll, and roll a natural "8" to recharge. They can reroll at the end of each of their turns for free.
Flanking: When surrounding an enemy with another, gain +2 to hit. If one player has the target grappled, gain advantage instead.
Forming a Chain Action
Two willing creatures each use their Action on their individual turns to form a Chain, becoming Chain Partners. A Chain lasts until: either partner ends it (no action required), one partner becomes unconscious, or the partners end a turn more than 60 feet apart. A creature can be chained with only one partner at a time.
Synchronized Strike
When one partner holds their attack when they take the Attack action, the other may initiate a Synchronized Strike using the held attack with their own attack action. When the initiating partner hits, the held attack of their chain partner immediately triggers, automatically hits, deals normal damage plus both player's PB bonus, and can occur once per round. Synchronized Strike must be recharged with a roll of a natural "8" using a "d8" before use again. Both players must have recharged before use again, and can reroll at the end of each of their turns for free.
Stunning Impact
A creature hit by the automatic strike must make a Constitution saving throw:
DC = 8 + both partners' proficiency bonus
On a failure, the creature is Stunned until the start of its next turn. A creature cannot be forced to make this saving Throw more than once per round.
Weakness Break
When a Player or Creature is stunned, or is effected by an rp/ combat rp event, they may or may not gain/lose resistances to damage. Things like Stunning impact, the spell hold person, and monk stunning strike can for 1d4 turns inflict a vulnerability stack of damage on the attacker's choice, on the target. This stack automatically fades at the end of the turn, and can only be purged by healing for more than 20 points of damage by a non-regenerative fashion. It must be through an ability or spell that requires an action. The damage must also be rp'd out to explain how it is inflicted, and cannot be inflicted the same twice.
