Endless Worlds is a game engine that utilizes a full VR
headset to bring players into dozens of worlds, created by
dozens of companies. Create your own setting and get
creative with the typical anime cliches: Everyone takes the
game way too serious, information is bartered for, not
found on the internet and maybe the game will kill you.
Gather 1-4 players; a GM and start solving quests, fulfill
storylines, participate in PvP or change the world with
guilds or conquering cities. It all depends on your group!
Character Creation
Characters begin play with 120 points in all skills, but they
always need to put points in a multitude of five (5,10,15..)
into their skills. One skill can reach a maximum of 35%
and the other skills have a maximum of 25%. Remember
that at 25% a Character gets a Specialisation for that skill.
Choose one Equipment slot that starts Serious, the rest is
Normal challenge rating. They start with 100% health.
They have no special abilities or Real Life skills since
these are optional. Races have no gameplay effects.
Challenge System & Difficulty
The Challenge system modifies your skill rolls, determines
equipment bonus, enemy damage & heals. You get a bonus
or a penalty to these according to the table. Take note that
bad equipment gives a penalty! This table is the standard,
'Casual' difficulty. If this is too easy you can modify all of
them by 10% for a 'Hardcore' difficulty (so a Deadly
Enemy does 40% Damage). Also choose a death penalty:
Character deletion, lose 10% of a skill or all current skill
advances. Choose one or be creative and create your own!
Level Skill Roll Equipment Heal/Damage PvP
Skills, Equipment & Quest Rewards
Every Skill has an equipment slot associated with it, these
are included in the dice roll. There are 5 Core Skills, 1
Character Real Life Skill (in italics) and you include 1-3
Setting Specific Skills that help define your setting
(Flying, Hacking, Casting, Leading Guilds...).
Core Skill Equipment Specialisation Examples
Defending Armour Parry, Evade, Taunt
Fighting Melee Weapon Axes, Brawl, Swords
Shooting Ranged Weapon Bows, Guns, Throw
Adventuring Gear Climb, Sneak, Initiative
Crafting Tools Brew, Gather, Smith
Expertises +10% bonus Courage, Wisdom, Social
Skills range between 0 and 75% proficiency. When a skill
reaches 25%, 50% and 75% you gain a Specialisation in
that skill which grants an additional 5% if you fulfill their
requirements (like using an Axe). Equipment uses
Challenge Levels and adds its effect as a bonus to the
corresponding Skill. If a Skill is increased by 5%, the
effect is degraded by one level. To Craft, you need to
acquire materials of the appropriate level and then make a
skill roll. So, crafting a Normal healing potion after
gathering Normal ingredients with +0% on your skill roll.
This potion would heal 15% health. Expertises is a
representation of your players skills from Real Life and
has no equipment associated with it but a permanent +10%
bonus, and levels up as normal. Quests can reward better
Equipment or crafting materials and equipment can also
be looted from Normal or higher enemies.
Advancing
There are four segments of mastery ('Tiers') for skills, from
Simple to Deadly. These show how strong a player
character is and when you gain skill advances. You need to
succeed at three skill rolls to gain another 5% in that skill.
Skills up to 30% are Simple, 35-50% are Normal, 55-65%
Serious and 70-75% are Deadly. To level skills, you need
to succeed in skill rolls of at least the same level.
Combat
Combat consist of consecutive rounds and differentiates
between Player vs Environment (PvE) and Player vs Player
(PvP). In PvE, PCs act and fight against NPC monsters and
humans. These use a track of boxes as their health. The
number of these increases with Challenge Level. With 1 or
2 players, a Pushover enemy has one box, a Deadly enemy
has five. With 3+ players, boxes are doubled. Each
successful attack fills one box (Casual) or half a box
(Hardcore). If a PC misses, they roll Defending. If they
fail, they suffer the Challenge Levels' Damage. In PvP,
players fight against characters played in the VRMMO by
other human beings, controlled by the GM. These use their
own character sheet and you alternate in rounds. In PvP,
enemies start all rounds, except for PCs that succeed an
initiative check. For every attack PCs roll Defending. The
damage you deal or get dealt is the difference between your
roll and your TP of the attack roll, rounded down to the
next multitude of 5. So, if you roll a 31 with a Total
Proficiency of 50 you deal 15 damage. In PvP your rolls
are modified by your enemies' skill. If an enemy has
Normal Defending, you get a bonus of +10% to attack, for
example. Players are never Pushover.

 GM Section
All of these are optional rules and information – you can
play the game without any or just some of these specifics!
Safety Tools
Since you are managing a video game, the game can be as
brutal as you want – or as little. Maybe enemies die into a
fountain of blood, maybe they just disintegrate into pixels.
Be sure to communicate with your players beforehand and
hand them safety tools, like the X-Card or Lines & Veils.
Quest Rewards
You should award the players rewards depending on the
difficulty of the Quest. You should try to tailor the rewards
to your group and the individual players, but not too much.
Get them into difficulties by handing the PC with axe
specialisation a sword that is better than his axe, or give the Social
damage dealer a healing ability. Shake the group dynamic
up!
Equipment Always be specific with these, don't just Psychological Courage, Willpower, Daring

that bumps Armour up to “Serious”.

Materials gathered. Interesting for Crafter PCs.
Be sure to tie the skill increases to something, like a magic
amulet or a piece of cybertech. These can be traded
between Players (actual PCs as well as GM controlled
players) or even lost or stolen. These do not count against
the maximum of 75% in a skill, or for reaching a higher
level of mastery.
Special Abilities Primordial Hunting Grounds – An Endless

factor or a negative side effect. A player might learn a An example setting

pet raven that gathers information and whispers it into the
ear of the player – but you need to feed it by gathering planet that resembles Earth when Dinosaurs still roamed
the land. The technological level is a wild mix of science

improvised equipment made with vines, wood and stones.
