Obtaining Resources

This article complies with version 0.94 of Runarcana RPG

Some stories focus on endless combat, while others may take players through political and espionage plots, and in some, resource gathering may be the focus.

Typically, the best stories mix all of these elements on different levels, giving utility to each of the characters' characteristics, making each of the three pillars integrated.

At some tables the story unfolds steadily, with every moment of the characters' day being part of the events, while at others, there are several periods of free time between events.

In all of the above cases, obtaining resources can be an important part of the narrative, either as a step towards achieving a goal or even as the ultimate goal.

Mining

Mineral resources can be obtained in a variety of ways throughout a story, through legal business, strategic looting, or even through hard work through the Mining Craft.

To practice the Mining Craft in a campaign, the GM may have a map of the regions containing geological data, with pre-established minerals and riches, and may only consult this reference material, but this is in no way a rule or requirement.

For shorter adventures, or even campaigns with a bit more improvisation (after all, players are unpredictable) these data may not be ready or may be incomplete. Therefore, it is possible to generate the necessary deta by choosing from the tables below or even using the randomness of the dice.

Generating a Mining Area

To generate a mining area, worldbuilding work can define which ores are common in various locations, as well as mines that have already been established in these locations to exploit this resource.

Still, a mining area can be created dynamically, for this the master can follow the following sequence:

1. Roll on the Ore Table (1d10)
2. Roll on the Wealth Table (1d4)

This way, it is established what type of ore can be found and what level of wealth in gems can be found during mining.

If the theme is recurring in a campaign, it may be interesting to generate several locations with their characteristics, so that in the event the theme is explored, the information is more easily available.

In many cultures, the exploitation of mineral resources can form villages or even cities, and in many cases this is the focus of life for all the people whose activities revolve around this activity, whether directly, by mining these resources, or indirectly, by providing services and products to make this possible.

Mining

Before a player can collect ores at a location, the available ore must be defined, as each type of ore requires a different formula.

Quando o jogador faz suas jogadas de mineração, ao término de 1 hora, é feita a jogada de riqueza para estabelecer se, além dos valores obtidos através da mineração, ele também obteve algum bônus:

1. Jogue na Tabela de Gemas Associadas (1d4)
2. Jogue na tabela de Riqueza (1d10 para baixa, 1d8 para Média e 1d4 para Alta)
3. Multiplique o valor de Riqueza pelo Multiplicador da Gema Associada

Caso o resultado da jogada na Tabela de Gemas Associadas seja um valor inexistente (simbolizado como um traço) não foi encontrada nenhuma Gema associada.

Caso uma gema seja encontrada, mas a tabela de riquezas tenha o valor 0, a gema foi encontrada, mas em um valor ínfimo, não gerando nenhum bônus.
