GAME mechanics

  • Storytelling - In d20 Modern, the game master (GM) creates and guides the narrative, describing scenarios, events and non-player characters (NPCs). The players respond to and interact with this narrative through their characters, influencing how the story unfolds. It's like directing a collaborative movie, where the script is influenced by the actions and decisions of the participants.
  • Paper and pen - Essential for jotting down information about characters, equipment, life points and any notes that help the game develop. This mechanic keeps things flowing and organized, allowing everyone to keep track of their character sheets and the progress of the story easily.
  • Data Scrolling - The main tool for determining the success or failure of in-game actions. Generally, a 20-sided die (d20) is used to perform tests of skill, combat, expertise and much more. The result of the roll is added to modifiers to determine the final result, allowing for an unpredictable and exciting experience.
  • RPG (Role-Playing Game) - d20 Modern is an RPG, a role-playing game where players create fictional characters and take part in an engaging narrative. They embody their characters, making decisions that affect the game world, interacting with other characters and living exciting adventures while developing their skills and personal stories.
