Homebrew rules

- Potions: Taking a potion can be done as an action or bonus action. Administering one to an ally is a full action. - Dynamic Rolls: When making a skill check, you may be able to use a different ability modifier. If you think a different ability could apply, you can request to substitute it (i.e. using Intelligence for a Medicine check). - Inspiration: Inspiration points can be spent as a reroll (similar to a luck point). You may 6give your inspiration to an ally for a roll that you see them make. - Quicken Spell: Using the Quicken Spell Metamagic feature, you can cast a spell of 1st level or higher as both your action and bonus action, as long as one of them is of a level lower than half your proficiency bonus, rounded down. - Action Surge Spell: Unless you have Quicken Spell, an item that allows it, or the Spelldriver feat, you can only cast one spell of 1st level or higher on your turn. - Critical Success/Failure: On any attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, a natural 20 is always a success and a natural 1 is always a failure. - Nat 20 Shared Saves/Checks: When you score a natural 20 on a check or saving throw and another creature makes the same roll, you may give one of those creatures a bonus to their roll equal to your Proficiency Bonus. - Deadly Falls: Fall damage scales in die type based on the total distance fallen and caps out at 400ft (50ft-1d8/100ft-1d10/150ft-1d12/200ft-2d8/300ft-2d10/400ft-2d12) - 2024/2014 Rules: Currently, we use 2014 rules but allow 2024 and 2014 characters.

How Randall - Cherry Tree Games creates a safe table

Content warnings and safety tools are listed below and reviewed at the top of the session. I provide a “Code of Conduct & Safety Tools” Google Form once you sign up, in which you can designate any of your lines and veils. During play, an X-Card and Pause Card are always available for safety and comfort. Games typically last about 4 hours with a break around the 2 hour mark. Once you sign up, you'll gain access to my community Discord which has all the character creation details, links to resources, and access to a fun community! At the end of the game, for players who wish, there is space for aftercare and debriefing. Players can also directly message me before, during, or after the game to express any concerns or reflections.
