Text of the page (random words):
dominion rules historical and fantasy roleplaying for free dominion rules is a simple yet comprehensive rules system for historical and fantasy roleplaying based entirely on the 12 sided die dr features elegant game play and fresh approaches to familiar concepts such as combat magic and religion dr is free to download from this web site or on scribd you can also buy a print version from lulu for us 11 99 dominion rules historical a by dominionrules reviews you might as well torch your columns of ad d and run dominion instead dominion feels like a life work it has that maturity and depth of a game that has evolved aged and tightened over time what throws me about dominion is that it s nearly a complete game the free rpg blog it is a very very simple seeming system on the outside but there is some lovely granularity that you can get into especially when you get into combat what i also like about this game is that it s very open and fluid in terms of what you can do with it you can create any skill you want and slot it in under one of these stats so that you can basically personalize the game however you want the sage s library me myself and die in short your weird uncle s favorite rpg notepad anon if you haven t checked out dominion rules shame on you you owe it to yourself and your gaming group to give this game a try now before i go farther there is an old saying that you get what you pay for with a free game that usually means less than nothing this is not the case with dominion i m biased as all get out over this free product and i think you will kick yourself if you buy a new system without looking at this one first after all when it s all said and done do you really need a specific company s logo on a book cover to validate your gaming give dominion a look you won t be sorry rpgnet features exciting combat combat in dominion rules is designed to be more exciting than in traditional rpgs rather than endlessly bludgeoning each other to death combatants in dr strike parry feint and dodge in battles that are as challenging to players minds as they are to their characters bodies while death is always a possible result of combat in dr killing or being killed is not the only way a dr battle can end combat usually ends with one side defeated rather than killed whether the victor then makes a killing blow is up to you a better approach to priestcraft in some rpgs priestly characters are really just magicians under another name not so in dominion rules priests in dr channel the divine powers of their deities to smite their enemies bless their allies heal the sick and even work miracles but priests must take care to remain in favour with their gods an unhappy deity may forsake his priest leaving him powerless spell based and free form witchcraft magic in dominion rules is more than just casting spells you read out of a rules book while dr includes over a hundred pre made spells for players to use witches are encouraged to make up new spells even on the spur of the moment players do this by invoking one or more of the eight provinces of magic alchemy arcana conjuring enchantment hex illusion sorcery and summoning magic in dr is unstable those who risk meddling with it may pay the price when their spells backfire with disastrous and sometimes hilarious results flexible beast rules dominion rules offers players all the tools they need to create beasts of all kinds mythical monsters ghostly apparitions fairy tale creatures ordinary animals humanoid character races and more players create such beasts using over 50 beast skills such as bite claw clutch constrict gore hurl spit venom and more works in a variety of game settings dominion rules is designed to work in a variety of historical and fantasy game settings known as dominions if you want to play in a traditional fantasy setting dr gives you the tools to do so but if you want a historical setting or a low fantasy setting or some other style of play dr can easily be adapted just include the rules that fit your dominion and ignore the ones that don t free and open dr is free to download and is released under the open gaming

anonymous benefactor by rob lang in 2008 but people do seem to still play it which is nice dr beta release late 1999 we can t quite recall when dr first hit the web but the earliest pages in the internet archive are from late 1999 they show dr s beta release on the old dominion games web site dominion games called its concept open source roleplaying and even the future of roleplaying that was a bit of an exaggeration however open gaming did later take off in a big way through wizards d20 licensing scheme dr 1 0 and idr 1 0 2000 dominion rules 1 0 came out in april 2000 an illustrated version idr 1 0 followed in october thanks to the terrific contributions of the illuminators guild now defunct the first draft of the dominion rules licence appeared online in july 2000 version 1 0 of the drl was published online by september 2000 the current version appeared with dr 3 0 in 2008 dr 2 0 july 2001 dominion rules 2 0 hit the web in july 2001 together with a redesigned dominion games web site this version improved and expanded the game s rules in several respects it was also dominion games attempt to make some money off the game by offering the central components for free and other components for sale over the internet only very few sales were ever made however and the collaborative open source gaming aspects of the game may have been undermined somewhat by this move dr 3 0 april 2008 dominion rules disappeared briefly from the internet around 2006 when a web squatter got hold of dominiongames com dr then relaunched in 2008 on dominionrules org as an entirely free system dominion rules is released under the terms of the dominion rules licence dr and this site are not regularly maintained but you can try emailing dominionrules gmail com if you need to contact
