    Dark Sun House Rules

    This chapter describes the mechanical aspects of the


    game, from Players Handbook character creation options MAGIC ITEM IDENTIFICATION
    to Dungeon Master Guide Variant Rules. As explained in DMG:136, any magic or psionic item need to
    be analyzed by an Identify Spell or similar method to be
    revealed all its characteristics, like activation method,
    ABILITY SCORES
    charges, limitations, curses, etc.
    Roll 4D6 six times, discard the dice with lower result on
    each roll. Assign each result to your abilities as you see fit.
    If the sum of all ability scores is below 75 roll again.
    WILD TALENTS
    All player character will roll on the table Wild Talents to
    receive one weak and untrained psionic power.
    INSPIRATION
    All characters have a pool of up to 3 Inspiration Points.
    When you spend one Inspiration point, you may choose
    ENCUMBRANCE
    to gain advantage on a roll of your character or an ally As described in PHB:176
    that you can see and hear.

    If one or more character spends together at least 3 EQUIPMENT SIZES


    Inspiration Points, they may require the GM a beneficial As described in PHB:145
    event change in the immediate story, like find the right
    merchant to sell rare items, or to be found by some FEAR & HORROR
    traveller with water to spare.
    As described in DMG:266
    Inspiration Points are recovered with good roleplaying of
    their backgrounds (personality, bonds, flaws, ideals) at
    FEATS
    the end of each game session.
    As described in PHB:165

    PROFICIENCY CHECK VARIANT


    HITTING COVER
    When using a skill to perform an action related in some
    meaningful way with your background, your character As described in DMG:272.
    may have advantage on the check.

    SKILLS WITH DIFFERENT ABILITIES


    As explained on PHB:175, the GM may require that a skill
    be associated with a different ability score for a specific
    action.

    HIT POINT PER LEVEL


    When a character reaches a new level and must roll for
    additional hit points, he or she may choose to reroll the
    undesired result. However, doing so reduces the next roll
    in an accumulative -1. Thus, a second roll of a fighter hit
    dice would be 1D10-1; a third hit dice roll would be 1D10-
    2, and so forth. All characters gain at least 1 hit point per
    level.

    EXPERIENCE POINTS AND LEVELING


    Player characters will level up when they reach a GM-
    predetermined milestone in the campaign. There will be
    no XP rewards from encounters.
