# Cypher System
|
|
|
|
The Cypher System, from Monte Cook Games, has become my favorite general purpose system, and perhaps one of my favorite
|
|
systems overall. It is a lightweight "rulings over rules" system with only a couple core mechanics and a lot of player
|
|
options, easily adaptable to any setting.
|
|
|
|
## Homebrew and House Rules
|
|
|
|
Custom content (descriptors, etc.) I've created for games in the Cypher system can be found at [this page of
|
|
homebrew](homebrew). Additionally, I use the following house rules:
|
|
|
|
* [Optional spellcasting uses pool points, not recovery rolls](homebrew#cost-of-optional-spellcasting)
|
|
* [Recovery rolls can be applied in any
|
|
order](https://callmepartario.github.io/og-csrd/#house-rule-making-recovery-rolls-in-any-order)
|
|
* [Weapon properties](https://callmepartario.github.io/og-csrd/#optional-rule-weapon-properties)
|
|
|
|
## Campaigns
|
|
|
|
* [A Storm Invited](storm/)
|
|
* [Adventuring!](/adventuring/)
|
|
* [Out to the Black](/black/)
|
|
|
|
### On Hold
|
|
|
|
* [Farewell to the Spire](spire/)
|
|
|
|
## Resources
|
|
|
|
* [Old Gus' Cypher System Reference Document](https://callmepartario.github.io/og-csrd/) --- freely available rules text
|
|
for the Cypher System and other openly available sources
|
|
* [Form-fillable character sheet](Cypher System Character Sheets-Revised-FormFillable-2019-09-10.pdf)
|
|
|
|
## Characters
|
|
|
|
Characters made for other games:
|
|
|
|
* [Victor Cadela](victor-cadela)
|
|
|
|
Making characters is fun, so I've made some [scratch characters](scratch-characters) for the hell of it.
