I have a feeling the scholar class is the magic user.
ReplyDeletei agree, but not a caster like we expect one to be in D&D
DeleteAlso aren't you on a 5E podcast? Or did that die off?

ReplyDeleteThe only thing that interests me is the Virtues. I'm hoping they're not just Alignments by another name.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like an almost direct port of The One Ring to 5E. If you are curious about the classes, virtues, etc. I think if you cross-reference the TOR materials, you'll see those indicators. The biggest difficulty I saw with TOR is people rejecting the Tolkien mores: The Valar = Good, Melkor/Sauron = Evil. All the cultural stuff in one way or another descends from that schema. If you just abandon that, the game really is simply D&D with a cosmetic LotR shell.
ReplyDeleteI will pick up the PDF and see if it grabs me. 5e has TOO much magic baked into its' bones for my tastes, this might calm that down some. I hope.
