The Way
A Swedish-language Christian educational RPG¸ developed for church youth groups. It is Christian but non-denominational¸ intended to let the players deal with complex moral problems and serves as a basis for teaching a Christian way of life. Each part includes built-in scenarios. Part I (Vagen) is a fantasy setting. Part II (Quo Vadis?) is set in the early Roman times of the Christian church. Part III (Ansgar) is based around missionaries to 9th century Sweden. In the base rules there are three races (Elf¸ Human¸ Dwarf) and three classes (Wizard¸ Warrior¸ Scout). The player rolls 2d6+6 for six characteristics (Strength¸ Intelligence¸ Attentiveness¸ Agility¸ Endurance¸ Looks). There are 18 skills split among the classes¸ where each skill has a base chance equal to its key characteristic. Resolution is by rolling 3d6 under skill value. cf. http://www.rollspel.com/engelsk/theway.htm - A description fromdarkshire.netwith kind permission of John H. Kim
