Character Stats Priest
Blanc Box RPG
This is a medieval fantasy
adventure game/hack
created under the creative
commons CC license.
It requires a referee, at least
two players, and a playset of
twenty-sided and six-sided
dice.
Core Mechanic
The referee narrates the
world. The players interact
with it. The referee narrates
the reaction of the world.
If an uncertain situation
arises, the referee may
adjudicate results by their
best judgment or ask the
player for a 1d20 roll
referring to one of the two
stats of their character.
If the result is lower than
the stat, the player must
state the result is a success
so the referee may narrate.
If the result is equal to the
stat, the player must state
the result is a success with
consequence so the
referee may narrate.
If the result is higher than
the stat, the player must
state the result is a failure
so the referee may narrate.
If the roll lands on 1, a
critical success occurs. If
the roll lands on a 20, a
critical failure occurs.
Advantage/Disadvantage
may apply to the roll at
referee discretion (roll 2d20,
pick lowest or highest,
respectively).
Combat: Attacking and
dodging. Feats of strength
and general physical ability.
Magic: Use of and innate
resilience against magic.
Creating a Character
Roll 1d6 for class. Class
includes initial hit points,
stats, stat growths,
features, restrictions, and
equipment.
All new player characters
begin at the first level with 0
experience points.
All player characters are
human by default.
The maximum for any stat is
18.

on the character sheet.
Strong characters add 1 to
initial hit points and
Combat, and gain 1 extra hit
point per level up.
Strong characters count as

Slight characters lower
initial hit points and Combat
by 1, and reduce their hit
point increase per level by 1.
Slight characters count as
one class lower for carrying
capacity.
Adept characters increase
initial magic by 1.
Adverse characters lower

Assign 1st-level spells
If the character is a Mage or
Priest, assign their initial 1st-
level spell.
Character Growth
Characters require X
experience points times
current level to gain a level
depending on their class.
Characters can go up to the
10th level.
Class X the weapon and inflict
Mage 25
Priest 20
Warrior 15
Levels only reflect statistical
growth. Characters must
grow further through
diegetic world elements.
Gaining Experience
At the end of each session,
the referee may award each
attending player’s character
1 to 5 experience points.
Finishing Details
Write down the character’s
age (minimum adult age),
their sex, a short history,
and a short set of objectives
(if any).
Players should always have
at least two character
sheets ready for each
session. One for their
current character and one
for their replacement
character.
Weapons
Character-wielded weapons
come in light, medium, and
heavy sizes, each with
distinct damage rolls.
Size Damage Roll
Light 1d6-1
Medium 1d6
Heavy 1d6+1
Light weapons include
examples like daggers and
slings, medium one-handed
swords and short bows, and
heavy two-handed swords,
halberds, and longbows.
Characters wielding
weapons they cannot use
properly roll with
disadvantage to battle with
halved damage with it.
Magic weapons have a
quality, which goes from 1
to 3. The quality adds to the
range of critical success with
the weapon and adds to the
damage roll.
Most, if not all, quality 2 and
3 magic weapons are
medium or heavy weapons,
very rare, and arcane-
powered.
Armor
Armor reduces any physical
(weapons, tangible sources)
source of damage by a fixed
amount depending on its
size.
Size Reduction
Light -1
Medium -2
Heavy -3
Shield -1
Light armor includes
leather, medium chain mail,
and heavy plate mail.
Characters can only gain the
reduction of one set of
armor and/or shield at a
time (the one with the
highest reduction, unless
stated otherwise).
Characters donning armor
they cannot use properly
have disadvantage on all
rolls.
Magic armor and shields
have quality, which goes
from 1 to 3. The quality
increases the reduction of
the armor as per its size.
Most, if not all, quality 2 and
3 magic armors are at least
medium-sized and arcane-
powered.
Most, if not all, quality 2 and
3 magic armor and shields
are extremely rare, more so
than weapons and other
magic items.
Magic armor and shields
may also reduce magical,
mystical, and intangible
forms of damage, on top of
the possibility of possessing
other magical powers.
 Using Spells
While there are no spell
usage resources, like slots
or points, players must
always roll for spells.
If the roll lands on a critical
failure, something terrible
happens.
In the case of an arcane
spell, the Mage causes a
dangerous backfire. The
higher the level of the spell,
the more powerful the
backfire.
In the case of a holy
spell, the Priest loses the
favor of their deity and their
innate powers for 1d6 days
(1st to 2nd-level spells) or
1d6 weeks (3rd to 5th).
The Priest must repent and
perform whatever mission
the deity asks of them
within the time limit.
Otherwise, said deity will
forsake them forever.
Spells and Conversion
Mages and Priests can
attempt to use spells of a
level equal to or lower than
half their level rounded up.
As such, spell levels in this
system go from 1st to 5th
level.
Mages and Priests can also
attempt to use spells of a
higher level, but their critical
failure range when
attempting it increases by
the level of the attempted
spell.
Critical Spell Failure
For every failure or success
with consequence when
rolling for a spell, the critical
failure range of the user
increases by the level of the
attempted spell.
This increased range
reduces by 1 for every 24
hours the user spends
without using any magic
whatsoever.
Spell Level and Effect
If a spell would roll dice for
healing or damage, roll Xd6
where X equals the level of
the attempted spell.
Using Magic Items
Magic items possess either a
passive effect, an activation
power, or both.
Passive effects require no
magic rolls. However, they
may require specific in world
conditions to work.
Activation powers always
require a magic roll.
Combat
Combat occurs through
theater of the mind or grid
less terrain, using
approximate distances.
Combat can apply either
without initiative or with
group initiative.
Non-initiative combat is
live fiction. The referee will
simply narrate, ask for rolls,
and manage perspective as
it best fits the context of the
fiction.
Group initiative is 1d6, 1-
3 players go first, 4-6
enemies go first, re-rolling
at the beginning of each new
round.
Characters can move, do a
major thing (swing a sword,
use a spell), and a minor
thing (unsheathe a sword,
grab a potion) each round in
any order.
Critical successes with
combat rolls inflict double
the maximum possible
damage of the employed
weapon (if any) and add a
possible, beneficial result
adjudicated by the referee.
Carrying Capacity
Characters can carry as
much as logic would dictate
based on their class. This in
order of Warrior, Priest, and
Mage.
Death
If a player character reaches
0 hit points, the player must
state this to the referee.
The referee will then
adjudicate what happens to
the character. Like death,
dismemberment, bleeding
out, unconsciousness, etc.
Recovery
Characters recover hit
points equal to their level
every day, provided sleep is
possible.
All healing potions and non-
magical healing methods
heal 1d6 unless stated
otherwise.
 NPCs
Non-player characters only
need the following stats: Hit
Dice, Attacks, and Other.
Hit Dice
For each hit dice, a
humanoid or mundane NPC
rolls 1d6 hit points. More
monstrous or empowered
NPCs may roll 2d6 hit points
per hit dice instead.
Optionally, the referee may
choose to use average hit
points for an NPC per Hit
Dice based on threat instead
of rolling. 2-3 for mild, 3-4
for considerable, 4-5 for
tough, and 6 for the
toughest.
When an NPC reaches zero
hit points, the referee
adjudicates what happens
based on context and intent.
Attacks
Attacks involve the method
of attack and the number of
attacks.
As a baseline, an NPC can
inflict 1d6, 1d6+1-5, 2d6, or
2d6+1-5 damage with their
attacks.
1d6 and 1d6+1-5 refer to
most humanoid and beast
attacks. 2d6 and 2d6+1-5
refer to powerful methods of
attack, ala giants,
empowered weapons,
dragon breath, etc.
This is only a baseline. The
referee may add dice or
modifiers to enemy attacks
as it best fits the situation.
Other
Other involves special
features beyond what the
fiction already implies. This
may include magic, a The referee adjudicates the
biological ability like a
poisonous stinger, a poison-
laced weapon, etc.
NPC Difficulty Options
If the NPC has a number of
Hit Dice equal to or greater
than the character’s
level+2, apply disadvantage
on all the character’s rolls
involving the NPC.
If the NPC has a number of
Hit Dice equal to or greater
than the character’s level,
add the difference to all the
character’s rolls involving
the NPC.
Training
Training can occur through
the course of play, taking in-
game world time and
resources to accomplish.
This training can benefit
characters both generally
and, at times, stat-wise.
Combat Skillset
This includes specific
training on a type of weapon
or a style of combat.
After training properly, this
grants an equal increased
combat stat and critical
success range when using
said weapon/style.
This increase can range
from 1 to 3 depending on
the quality of training.
For example, after three
months, a character learns
the mastery of the rapier
and fencing.
training as quality 2. This
means the character, a level
2 Warrior, will have a 13
Combat stat and 1-3 critical
success chance while using
the rapier.
Magical Skillset and
Developing Powers
While the use of leveled
spells is restricted to Mages
and Priests, characters can
still gain magical benefits
and powers by finding them
in the game world. For
example:
A character sells their soul in
a blood ritual, gaining the
ability to regain hit points
every time they inflict
damage (or draw blood).
A non-Mage/Priest learning
the holy or arcane tongue
and receiving training to
wield holy or arcane magic
items better (specialized
stat).
Like other skill sets, any
specialized stats increases
can range from 1 to 3
depending on the quality of
training.
General Skillset
This includes learning how
to play an instrument, a new
language, how to
manufacture a poison, how
to pickpocket properly, etc.
