Archetype
A fantasy rpg using a system based on the Tarot deck in place of dice. It is set in a dark fantasy world where humanity is making its last stand against monsters. The player characters are working for a group called Archetype that infuses humans with traits from monsters. Character creation includes numeric attributes along with associated Key Words. For example¸ Physical could have key words Condition¸ Grace¸ and Strength. Skills list these Key words. If you have the skill's Key Word in your attribute then your skill is aided by your attribute. Resolution works by making a number of draws from the tarot deck equal to your skill (aided or not)¸ where each card over the difficulty (1-14) is a success. Major arcana cards are used in the magic system. - A description fromdarkshire.netwith kind permission of John H. Kim
