Table Top RPG: Dice Purchase System
This system is based in a die pool system. Each character will start with a pool of build points, (To be determined by the GM), these points are used to buy dice in your attributes, skills, special abilities, and varies other stats so a player my create a character that could be a jack of all trades (Spreading the points out evenly), to being super focused on one or two things that make them specialist. The cost of dice is covered in the attributes section below.
Attributes:
STR: This stat represents the amount of lifting and carrying capacity, as well as your prowess in melee combat.
DEX: This stat represents your speed and accuracy, it will be the stat used for defense and ranged combat.
CON: This stat represents your internal fortitude, both physically and mentally.
INT: This stat represents your book smarts, used for knowledge and politics.
WIS: This stat represents your common sense, used for decision making and subterfuge.
CHA: This represents your overall presence, both physically and aura.
Attributes and Skills start out at 0 to show no particular aptitude with that ability. A player purchases a die by spending build points. The costs are as follows: d4=4 points, d6=6 points, d8=8 points, d10=10 points, d12=12points, d20=20points. In order to purchase a larger die the player must have already purchased the dice that come before. For example, to buy a d8 a player must have already spent points to buy the d4 and the d6 in order before they can spend the points on the d8.
