    CoreRPG - High Variance

    High Variance is an extension for CoreRPG which changes the results of the dice to the more extreme end of the spectrum.

    Cursed Dice
    All 20s on a d20 roll will be changed to 1

    Blessed Dice
    All 1s on a d20 roll will be changed to 20

    Crit Fumble
    All rolls on a d20 at or above the Critical Fumble Line will be changed to 20. All rolls below the Critical Fumble line will be changed to 1

    High Variance
    The overall average of the result is the same but possible outcomes shifted to the extremes. Possible results on dice are as follows.

    d4 - 1,1,4,4
    d6 - 1,1,2,5,6,6
    d8 - 1,1,2,3,6,7,8,8
    d10 - 1,1,2,2,3,8,9,9,0,0
    d12 - 1,1,2,2,3,4,9,10,11,11,12,12
    d20 - 1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,5,6,15,16,17,18,18,19,19,20,20,20

    Global Settings
    The global settings chan be changed in the settings menu
    • Dice Set Dice set as described above or off (default)
    • Apply to Actors Apply the dice set to all actors, friends only, foes only
    • Apply to Rolls Which rolls to apply to. DMG/HEAL only applies to High Variance dice set
    • CritFumble Line The value at which the Critical Fumble dice set determines success or failure
      Effects


    Effect
    Effects can be applied to indvidual actors and will override the global setting for this actor. Effects are formatted as follows

    (label); HVROLL: (type); CRITLINE: (N)

    (label) is type of one of the following:
    • highvariance
    • blesseddice
    • curseddice
    • critfumble


    HVROLL is optional and will use the global setting if omitted. If used the type must be one of the following:
    • all
    • d20
    • atkdmgheal
    • dmgheal
    • dmg


    CRITLINE is optional and will use the global setting if omitted. If used the type must be a number between 1-19. Only applies to dice type critfumble

    Notes
    • This extension does not change the graphical numbers displayed on the dice, only the results
    • Changes in rolls only apply to rolls that have an actor source. Rolls not rolled from a character sheet will not be modified.

    Tested the curseddice in 4e. Works. Going to add it to a cursed item in conjunction with Equipped Effects. Muhahaha ;-)

    Thanks!

    I am trying to figure out what a Critical Fumble Line is. Is it when they roll a 1 or a 20 and then it affects the second roll?

    It should be. d20 roll >= Critical Fumble line changed to a 20, and the rest are changed to a 1

    This came out of one of my games where an NPC sold the party a drug called Crit which lasts for 1 hr and has withdraw symptoms. It's was described as for daredevils and dreadnoughts and go big or go home. The party still has it in their inventory but are scared to try it. Guess they don't trust the DM

    To add to this:

    Blessed and Cursed came about because of some Dark Power power ideas I had with my Curse of Strahd
    High Variance came about from a twitter post by Chris Perkins and Wyrmwood did a kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...od/description
