What am I, copped liva? Lol — certainly not. There are also many Perks and Quirks to choose from which give a character some personality. Perks minor Advantages and Quirks minor Disadvantages benefit or hinder the character a bit, but they mostly add role-playing flavor. Enhancements and limitations can tailor an advantage or disadvantage to suit creative players. These modify the effects and point cost of advantages and disadvantages.
For example, to create a 'dragon's breath' attack, a player would select the Innate Attack ability the ability that allows a player to perform an attack most humans could not , and select burning attack 4D normally 20 points. This addition to the system greatly increases its flexibility while decreasing the number of specific advantages and disadvantages that must be listed. For instance, in a generic medievalfantasy setting, skills for operating a computer, or flying a fighter jet would not normally be available.
Skills are rated by level, and the more levels purchased with character points, the better the characters are at that particular skill relative to their base attribute. Easy skills cost few points to purchase levels in, and the cost per skill level increases with each level of difficulty.
Game mechanics allow that eventually it may be less expensive to raise the level of the base attribute the skills depend on as opposed to purchasing higher levels of skills. A player can generally purchase a skill for his character at any level he or she can afford. The lower you choose the fewer points it costs to buy the skill, and the higher you go, the more points it costs.
Some skills have default levels, which indicate the level rating a character has when using that skill untrained i. For example, a character with a Dexterity of 12, is using the Climbing skill untrained.
Climbing has a default of DX-5 or ST-5, which means that using the skill untrained gives him a Climbing skill level of 7 if he tied it to the Dexterity stat. If the character had a higher Strength stat, he could have a better chance of success if he tied the Climbing skill there instead.
Some skills also have a Tech Level TL rating attached to them, to differentiate between Skills that concern similar concepts, but whose tasks are accomplished in different ways when used with differing levels of technology. This helps during time traveling scenarios, or when characters are forced to deal with particularly outdated or advanced equipment. For instance, a modern boat builder's skills will be of less use if he is stuck on a desert island and forced to work with primitive tools and techniques.
GURPS uses six-sided dice for all game mechanics using standard dice notation. An 'average roll' of three six sided dice generates a total of GURPS players hope to roll as low as possible under the tested statistic's rating or skill's level. If the roll is less than or equal to that number, the check succeeds. There is no 'target number' or 'difficulty rating' set by the Game Master, as would be the case in many other RPG systems.
Instead the GM will apply various modifiers to add or subtract to the skill level. In this way, positive modifiers increase the chance for success by adding to the stat or skill level you must roll under while negative modifiers deduct from it, making things more difficult.
For example: a player makes a pick pocketing test for her character. The character has a Pickpocket skill with a level of Under normal circumstances - i. If the player rolls above 11, then the character has failed the attempt at pick pocketing. There are some exceptions for very high or low rolls, deemed criticals. No matter the level of the skill, a die roll of 18 is always a critical failure , and a roll of 3 or 4 is always a critical success a roll of 17 is a critical failure as well, unless the character relevant skill level is 16 or more.
After all characters have taken their action, one second has elapsed.
