Karanduun v1.4.1 Release! <A Discordant Restructuring>


Ohoy boyos, KARANDUUN has released with v1.4.1, a VERY big change from v1.3! Here's a big list of changes that come with the new update.

  • From 5 Flamebooks to 7 Tungkulin. In lore, gone are the 5 Gahum Types and Puwersa Techniques, and subsequently, the Five Flamebooks. In their place are the 7 Tungkulin, seven divine callings patterned after the first 7 Karanduun, blessed and cursed by BATALA.
  • No More Puwersa, only Ngalan. With the removal of Puwersa, the lore has changed as well. Karanduun now awaken to Ngalan, divine Names within every Souled Being, which just so happens to also be the Infinite Names of God. Each Ngalan names an actual concept in the Multiverse, and having that Ngalan gives you powers according to that Ngalan. An Attainer with SWORD, for example, might be able to control swords with their will, or create swords out of their Gahum. This now has a system in the game, where you can choose one word that names a concept and then choose what effects you can do with it.
  • Changed Gahum Tiers. There are now only 6 Gahum Tiers, before you become Karanduun. However, you can play and gain more power when you are Karanduun. Additionally, growing in Gahum takes longer now, and Gahum directly has an effect on social interactions where Gahum is relevant.
  • Armor. Armor has gone from a flat Wound negation to a resource spent to negate 3 Wounds. Each Armor's rating now represents how many Armor they can spend before it's all gone and refreshes on the next rest.
  • Bonds and Beliefs. There are now ways to model the bonds your character has to other beings and their beliefs, which can add or subtract dice from your dice pool depending on the context of the situation.
  • Concept and Background. Each Tungkulin also has 4 pre-generated Concepts and Backgrounds to help ease you into the setting as well as ease the process of Character Creation, but you can still create your own character.
  • From Witchery to the Black and White Secret. The Secret of Blaspheming the Word of God has been split into two kinds of magic: The Black Secret of Violence which focuses on damaging effects, and is called pagkukulam, and the White Secret of Blasphemy, which focuses on effects that heal and is called pagaalbularyo.
  • Shake the Pillars of Heaven. Shake the Pillars of Heaven has now been expanded into a small, optional fighting subsystem for 1-on-1 fights between two characters of equal strength. Can also be used for Player vs Player conflicts.
  • Martial Arts. There are now Martial Arts in the game, each of them unique to the setting, giving additional effects in combat, and give a certain flourish to your characters. There are 6 in all in the core book.

That's most of it. Feel free to grab the PDF and skim through it! Thanks everyone, and don't forget to Make God Bleed.
