KhronMaster is a rules-lite dark fantasy simulation TTRPG. It is modular and it can be very basic at rules-lite gaming, or can add complexity with rules-lite immersive gaming. For simple rules playing you need two d6's two 20's and two d10's per player (including GM, but you don't have to have GM with solo rules).
Humans are the only playable characters in KhronMaster. There is no alignment or morality points, there is however score of 0 through 5 when using anything in reference of dark oaths, dark gods, magick and the like. You may think you are going to play it safe to not do such actions, but trust me, you will. And your death will be gruesome and glorious no matter how slow or quick, painless or excruciating. Death is the topic of the game, and it is also the beginning of a new chapter. This game is not about the afterlife; for death is the ulitmate finality in KronMaster for the player character. You basically start from your nearest heir to your legacy to pick up where you go. "The Sins of the Father" really bleed into this game, keeping record and history of those black oaths you took at that fated hour in desperation, with that dark god, cementing a covenant that reaches generations in your descending lineage.
The usual template of an average human (aka Level 1/Beginner), status as Peasant:
| [STRENGTH] | [ARMOR] | [HEALTH] | [AGILITY] | [DEXITY] | [WISDOM] | [FAITH] |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
Levels work by ATTRIBUTE_LEVEL = ATTRIBUTE_SCORE / 4. So for level on STRENGTH, you use 4 / 4 and get 1. Your STRENGTH LEVEL is 1. And so on. When hitting real number precision, round up (numbers with decimal, example: 2 / 4 = 0.5 would equal 1). Your PLAYER CHARACTER LEVEL (PCL) is the majority level of your Attribute Score levels. So if you have two level 4 score levels, and you have five level 2 attribute score levels, your PCL is 2. If your score has a partern of 3 different matching scores, like two attribute scores being 8, two being 7 and two scores being 3, your PCL equals 8. Again, it is a majority ruling with the Player Character Level.
There are no experience points to gain new levels in KhronMaster...

As the heading explained, thronen coins are the currency of the Realms of Khron. The coins are minted differently, giving it variety. The face of kings, past and present, are struck on one face. The other face is has their economic decree stricken upon. A PC begins with 50 thronen coins.
Note: Rules-lite does not mean dice-lite LOL - Jerr
