Story Mode Solo Play

So I told you all about the app AJ used. Well it’s been cleaned up and it’s currently found at here for anyone to use.

It uses a series of Oracle and checks based on a Scene Status.

There are two tables, which basically are the same thing the oracle being a DC of 15. Ands always help you, and But’s should hinder you in some way.

The Scene Status is based on a similar mechanism to the Cypher System where the Status Target number (the DC) is 3 times the Status. The Scene Status is a 1d6 so the range is from 3 to 18.

d20Result
1Fail, and
2 to DC-6Fail, but
DC-5 to DC-1Success, but
DC to DC+4Success
DC+5 +Success, and

If you give it a try and things are broken you can reply here and AJ will take a look or you can head on over to the Github Repo (the one icon that isn’t labeled) and leave an issue.

And here is an example of a scene setup AJ went through to play with the app.
