Runequest: An RPG with a Difference
RuneQuest is part of Chaosium’s D100 Basic Roleplaying system. It is intuitive and easy to play: you use percentile dice for virtually all rolls determining success or failure of a task.
The game has no character classes or alignments; you define your character by their culture, the gods they follow, and the Runes that inspire them.
Nor does the system use levels; instead, characters advance in skills and abilities by using them in course of play. Anyone can try to pick a lock, cast a spell, or decipher some ancient runic script.
Combat in RuneQuest is exciting, immersive, visceral and always potentially deadly; players should be mindful even the lowliest trollkin can take out an experienced warrior with a lucky blow.
