World’s End

Russia and the United States of America have successfully become the most dominant
countries globally. With the U.S. conquering the majority of the Western hemisphere, and
Russia taking up the East. As the last remaining lands lie within each other's grasp, the
specter of all-out war looms large on the horizon.

Starvation and poverty ravage the populace, while those in power view them as nothing
more than expendable pawns in their pursuit of dominance

Yet, amidst the darkness and despair, a flicker of hope remains. Deep within the Arctic's
frozen expanse, far from civilization's prying eyes, a sanctuary emerges. Here, beneath the
icy wasteland, a disparate coalition of refugees, soldiers, and elite military contractors has
come together with a singular purpose: to resist the oppression of their oppressors and
fight for their freedom.
 Game Rules

This is a roleplay and battle-heavy variation on 5e set in a modern world, meaning there are
major changes in how things work.

Character Creation:

Players create characters using a dice-rolling system to determine their attributes (Strength,
Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma).

Players select a class and customize their character's skills, abilities, and equipment based on
their chosen class.

Game Mechanics:

Resolve actions using a d20 (twenty-sided die) roll, with modifiers based on the character's
attributes, skills, and equipment.

Combat encounters use a turn-based system, with initiative determining the order of actions.
Damage is calculated based on the weapon used, with modifiers for critical hits, armor, and other
factors.

Skills and Abilities:

Characters have a set of skills and abilities based on their class and background, which they can
use to overcome challenges and obstacles.

Skills may include combat skills (such as marksmanship or hand-to-hand combat), technical
skills (such as hacking or engineering), social skills (such as persuasion or intimidation), and
survival skills (such as navigation or first aid).

Adventuring and Exploration:

Players explore the world, uncovering hidden locations, encountering NPCs (non-player
characters), and completing quests and objectives.

Exploration may involve navigating urban environments, wilderness areas, and underground
bunkers, facing hazards such as hostile wildlife, environmental dangers, and enemy patrols.
Progression and Advancement:
Characters gain experience points through completing quests, defeating enemies, and achieving
objectives.

As characters level up, they gain access to new abilities, skills, and equipment options, allowing
them to become more powerful and versatile as the game progresses.

Weaponry:
Merchants are your friends. They will provide you with weaponry. From ranged weapons
like snipers to up-close shotguns, to survive in this brittle world, arming yourself would
be a good idea. Bartering, quest loot, ground loot, and loot from enemies will help you
level up in this experience.

Example Weaponry:
Used Pistol:
Damage: 1d8 piercing
Range: 30/90 feet
Properties: Light, Reload (12 shots)

Example Armor:
Kevlar Vest:
Armor Class: 12 + Dexterity modifier (max 2)

Example Attachments:
Scope:
Description: A magnifying optic or holographic sight that improves accuracy and
precision at long ranges.

increment of the weapon.
