	'''Midnight''' by [[FFG]] is a blatant ripoff of [[J. R. R. Tolkien \|J.R.R. Tolkien's]] set in a <strike>darker and less deterministic</strike> [[grimdark]] universe. Think, less "[[The Lord of the Rings]]"; more the last parts of [[The Silmarillion]] after Melkor revokes everyone's Twitter account excepting Doriath's.

	A hit or miss design for the most part, '''Midnight''' features a skimmed core of classes from the players handbook, by also enabling additions called ''Heroic Paths'' from its own core. By the grace of lack of Divine and wide-spread Arcane magic, the ''Heroic Paths'' launch martial classes to the stars while driving [[Wizard \| magic users]] to episodes of sub-psychotic rage and eventual hospitalization. The fact that there are monsters bound to the Dark God that can "smell" magic from miles away doesn't help much either.

	*Magic Items - Very rare. Due to the draining of magic from the world, must be made at a "place of power" or found. Covenant Magic Items grow in power with their bearer, and often are that character's only magical possession. Charms are minor magic items that do not catch the attention of the Dark God's magical sniffers.		*Magic Items - Very rare.

Charms are minor magic items that do not catch the attention of the Dark God's magical sniffers.
	*Feats - lots of new Feats to go with the new classes and spellcasting system. Many are setting specific, and related to better survival in the wilderness and guerrilla warfare.		*Feats - lots of new Feats to go with the new classes and spellcasting system. Many are setting specific, and related to better survival in the wilderness and guerrilla warfare.
			*Spells - much like Feats, the Spell list is added to. Unlike feats, certain spells are simply not available in Midnight, while others become available.
			*Heroic Paths - as mentioned above, PCs get a Heroic Path in addition to Race & Class. These are typically based on bloodline or destiny, and improve at every level. Can grant a variety of bonuses thematically based on the Path. For example, those of the Giantblooded Heroic Path become bigger, stronger, more intimidating, and can throw rocks as weapons.
