Setting:Iaquit
Rules[edit | edit source]
The rules are a grossly simplified, amalgamated, and mutilated abomination of the corrupted forms of Dnd 5e and GURPS 4e, creating the unholy spawn that is called WorldofWeird. There are 7 statistics: STR, your general studliness and buffness DEF, The amount of damage that gets reducted when you get hit. Armour helps this. DEX, your skill in performing nimble tasks STH, your ability to stay hidden wether in sound, sight or whatever.

Anyone who does reach the end, instead of the incredible treasure they expect to find, they become a lesser god, of a minor oddjob thing that no one wants, with nearly no hope of reaching the world again.
The reason for that being that long ago, a mortal scholar of an unknown race became a mighty hero. He slew the foul abominations from the primordial fluid breaking into the world and saved every layer of the ring-world from them. The gods decided to reward him. He said "I want power unimaginable, every capability beyond the imagination of mortal or divine." "I will be beyond your ranks". As soon as the gods gave him the power, he divided into 4 ghastly forms, Dhaur, god of war, Lij, god of pride, Mamon, god of greed, and Klai, god of lies. He immediately began conquest of the world, striking the worlds of
