What follows are some changes to Ryuutama’s health and damage systems. Some changes are mentioned even if the spell, item, or ability would not necessarily be in use in a Legend of Zelda game, so that GMs may pick and choose what works for their game.<\/p>\n

This page is SUPER work in progress!!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hearts<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Rather than hit points, hearts are used to represent a characters health and stamina.  Make the following changes to use this system. This is NOT required to use the other Zelda-tama additions.<\/p>\n

Max Hearts = [STR]\/2<\/strong><\/h6>\n

For example, if your starting STR is a d6, you will begin with 3 max hearts<\/em>.<\/p>\n

pg. 31: The rules for fainting and risking death are the same — when a character falls to 0 hearts, they faint. If they take damage that would reduce their hearts below 0, they may die!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
Leveling up<\/strong><\/h6>\n

pg. 56: What happens when you level up?
\nEvery level, you instead of an option to take 0-3HP, you may take 0-3 half-heart containers<\/strong>. For every full heart container, your max hearts go up by one.<\/p>\n

Having a partial heart container does not raise your max hearts, so does not allow you to take more damage.<\/p>\n

All other leveling rules remain the same.<\/p>\n

Journey Rules<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Use the following replacement rules:<\/p>\n

Travel Check<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Failure<\/strong>: Lose up to half your current hearts (rounding down to the nearest quarter-heart), to a maximum of three.
\nFumble<\/strong>: Lose up to one quarter of your current hearts (rounding down to the nearest quarter-heart), to a maximum of five.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

 <\/p>\n

Camping Check<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Success<\/strong>: At the start of the next day each character\u2019s current hearts are doubled, rounding to the nearest full heart (up to their max). MP is fully restored.
\nFailure<\/strong>: At the start of the next day each character recovers only one heart and two MP.
\nCritical<\/strong>: At the start of the next day each character recovers their full max hearts and MP, and gains a +1 bonus to the that day\u2019s Condition<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
Fainting and Death<\/strong><\/h6>\n

When a character takes damage that reduces them to 0 hearts, they faint. When a character uses their last MP, they faint.
\nIf a fainted character takes additional damage, they may die. If the amount of damage is equal to or more than their Condition\/2 (rounded up), they die. For example, a character with a Condition of 7 dies if they take 4 more hearts worth of damage.
\nCharacters who have fainted benefit from Camping Checks, but only gain one heart (and\/or 1 MP, if that is at zero) on a Success. All other results work normally. Fainted or dead characters can be carried and are treated as size 5 items. Obviously they do not need to roll Travel Checks!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Damage<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Damage dealt is not rolled, but is instead a set number of  half or full hearts.<\/p>\n

dealing damage<\/strong><\/h6>\n

This is the amount of damage done by an Unarmed Strike<\/strong> (pg. 63):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
d4: <\/strong>1\/2 heart
\nd6<\/strong>: 1 heart
\nd8<\/strong>: 1 1\/2 heart<\/td>\n		d12<\/strong>: 2 hearts
\nd20<\/strong>: 3 hearts<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Add 1\/2 a heart of damage to unarmed damage when using an improvised weapon <\/strong>unless otherwise determined by the GM.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
Nonlethal Damage<\/strong><\/h6>\n

pg. 22 : If they succeed, determine damage as normal, except that damage applied may not reduce the target to less than 0 hearts.<\/p>\n

weapons<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Weapons deal damage based on their type and any modifiers. To avoid repetition, weapon damage information is listed on the Weapons and Armor<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

Modifiers
\n<\/strong>pg. 60 Orichalcum:<\/strong> Grants one additional bonus heart if worn
\npg. 61 Plus One Weapons:<\/strong> Deals 1 additional heart of damage<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Healing<\/strong><\/h4>\n

pg. 44 Healing: <\/strong>Target character recovers hearts equal to the result of [INT + SPI:max]\/4, rounded up to the nearest full heart, up to their full max hearts. During combat, recover only the result of [INT:max]\/4 (only 1 die.)
\npg. 76 Cure Touch:<\/strong>Caster heals a target for [INT:max]\/4 hearts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
