story if that rouses their curiosity let them read this introduction you might also want to start with this introduction if you ve role played before getting this document but it wasn t with opend6 what is a role playing game a role playing game is very much like improvisational acting or interactive storytelling but with rules many video games are like this and there are plenty of online interactive worlds so chances are good that you know what a role playing game is about this role playing game however doesn t need any expensive equipment special software or cartridges or a connection to the internet what do i need to play to play this game you need this document some paper something to write with some six sided dice a lot of imagination and a group of people one of whom is willing to act as the guiding force in the game this person is called many things but game master serves well as short hand for someone who presents information about the game setting creates obstacles for the other players to overcome takes the part of the people the players encounter and adjudicates the rules the rest of the group simply called the players take on roles of major characters in the story that they and the game master create together the stories are called adventures or scenarios very short adventures usually encompassing only one or two obstacles to a simple goal are referred to as encounters a series of encounters can become an adventure while a series of adventures can turn into a campaign this document contains a section called adventure tips on how to come up with adventures reality the opend6 rules are not meant to reflect the real world s reality rather they have been designed to model fiction reality the reality of stories television shows comic books and movies game masters who want to use this system to describe the real world will need to add their own modifiers and limits where do i go next will you be you joining a game where everyone else knows how to play and you don t have a lot of time to learn the rules read character basics and then flip to the character templates ask the game master which one or ones you can use fill in the template as you learned from character basics then take the sheet to the game session and start playing the rest of the players will teach the details as you go along do you have some time to learn the rules but you don t want to be the game master read all of the sections up through the healing section in this introduction is a solitaire adventure that will get you started on the basics the rest of the sections fill in more details then skip to the equipment section do you want to be the game master with all its responsibilities and privileges you ll need to read this entire document or
