Looking for "Might, Valour, Wisdom" house-rules

The unique One Ring rules set invites tinkering and secondary creation. Whilst The One Ring works brilliantly as written, we provide this forum for those who want to make their own home-brewed versions of the rules. Note that none of these should be taken as 'official'.

Looking for "Might, Valour, Wisdom" house-rules

Post by DracoDruid » Tue Oct 25, 2016 9:28 am

Hey everyone,

has been some time that I saw an interesting idea about introducing "Might" as a third stat besides Valour and Wisdom, but I can't find it anymore.

Can anyone of you help a fella out here?

Maybe point me to the thread or a download link?

Thank you very much!

I used this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/795 ... Vigour.pdf, but it's still awaiting completion - need the Adventurers Companion released in order to do this. It is based on something 'Rocmistro' did as well but I reduced the number of additional virtues etc in order to simplify the choices. I have moved around many of the Virtues associated with Wisdom into Boons associated with Vigour and there are also other house rules that this subsystem takes advantage of.

Hey great!
Thank you very much. :)

EDIT:

Hah! It seems that you took my proposal from then into consideration and named it Vigour instead of Might! ;)

Dowloaded it, since I used to have an older version.
Do you feel like sharing the modified rewards? I was intrigued by the Sword of King Bard :)

I'll try and round them up. If you could do a list here of those missing then I'll try and put something together.

Thanks!

Sword of King Bard (Bardings)
Gift of the Woodland Elves (Lakemen)
Blade of Numenor (Rangers), even if I think I got an older version of this

Sword of King Bard (long sword)
As gifts to commemorate the defeat of the dragon Smaug, the Dwarves of the Mountain forged these long swords for King Bard and those amongst his men who are his closest allies and champions. Their thrice-forged blades never lose their keen edge, and their hilts and scabbards are inlaid with gold and silver.

Raise your Standing by 1. Additionally, when you roll a A on the Feat die using a Sword of King Bard, you get a +2 to your Injury rating.

Gift of the Woodland Elves
Among the most unusual and rare possessions of a Lakeman household are items given to them as gifts by the Wood Elves of Mirkwood during their encounters with them. Such gifts can represent any physical item that the player-hero wishes.

When using this item in conjunction with the chosen Common Skill, you may roll the Feat Die twice and keep the best result.

• Examples of such items and their accompanying Common Skills are: Lembas Bread (Travel), Heath Rope (Athletics or Explore) and Elven Ring (Persuade, Inspire or Awe)

When selecting this Reward, the related Common Skill must be declared.

Blade of Numenor (long sword)
These blades have been forged by great craftsman a long time ago and have never lost their keen edge. They are known to be the bane of the servants of the Shadow for when they are wielded by a Dúnedain, even the smallest injuries can become mortal wounds.

If you roll a great or extraordinary success on an attack using a Blade of Númenor, you may choose not to apply the additional damage in order to automatically inflict a Piercing blow.
