Thoan


A French-language RPG based on P.J. Farmer's World of Tiers series of novels. The universe includes several worlds created and rules by powerful beings called the Thoans¸ linked by interdimensional gates. The central world (and the only one covered in the basic rules) is an enormous tower with circular levels surrounding a central mountain topped by the Lord's citadel. The basic games includes a wealth of source material on this ""World of Tiers"". The rules are a dice-pool system geared for beginners. Action resolution is by rolling d6's equal to one's attribute¸ where each die over a target number counts as 1 success. Character creation is based on a fixed set of 20 templates. Combat uses a complex system where players pre-allocate a set of action ranks each round. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H. Kim
