Destiny

Play By Mail Gaming System
 


Introduction

The Destiny Gaming system is a system designed primarily for the Play by Mail games I am running. As such how the events are described by the players influences how successful the characters are.

Also unlike most systems the DGS allows players to define something of their characters future as well as their past. Thus the players have a great input into the plot lines they will be playing.
This 'defining destiny' occurs as part of the character generation system and allows players to have any level of character at the beginning, with the balance occurring during play itself as the power powerful characters have more 'bad stuff' happening to them.

The Disclaimer....

because it seems compulsory to have one nowadays.
Shattered Realities and the D.G.S. is a completely accurate portrail of reality and how it works.
Every thing that appears in Shattered Realities really works that way. This include the creation of fate, Magic, and advanced scientific systems that we currently have only a primitive knowledge of.
However none of the game worlds of Shattered Reality is this Reality.

The reality you are sitting in and reading this in, though by definition part of Shattered Realities, is limited by the same laws of morality anf physics that you have always lived with.
This is a game and is not an excuse to go out mudering, raping or committing misguided acts of wanton Magic.
If you do it, it is your fault, don't blame me for your lack of grip on what your society expects of you.

PS. If you believe the first paragraph of the above, this is probably not the game for you. Delete the files, put it back on the shelf and go and play something safe and high fantasy like RuneQuest or Space Opera Something where the definitiong between real and fantasy are nice and clear and you never run the risk of meeting yourself. Belive me it will be better in the long run.
