Kazamaták és Kompániák - Advanced Classes

The second edition of the Hungarian retro-clone, Kamazaták és Kompániák is imminent, and even though it won't be available in English, I've decided to make certain key elements of it available for an international audience - partially because if I ever decide to run something B/X-like in English, I'll most certainly pick KéK over OSE (after years of extensive playtesting and fine-tuning, I just prefer it to B/X).

Below you will find the six "advanced" classes for the Hungarian retro-clone, Kamazaták és Kompániák (abbreviated, for it is but a reference work) - next time we look at the spell lists for magic-using classes (and as before, the devil's in the details).


DRUID

  • Requirement 9+ Wisdom
  • Primary Attribute: Wisdom and Charisma
  • Cannot use metal weapons, shields, or armour.
  • May only be of Neutral alignment.
  • No more than one druid may join the company at any time.
  • May dominate or pacify animals (see table below). Attempts are rolled with 1d6, targeting a single animal. On a success the target animal is dominated, or (if limit is already reached or animal is violent towards the druid) pacified for 2d6 turns. Special results include (N) no attempt is possible and (S) automatic success. The druid may control as many HD of animals as their henchman allowance based on Charisma.

    1. I just realised I never published the spell descriptions I promised. They were almost done, so I'll probably start there.
