The Azure Line. The Riverland. The Verdant Band. There are many names for the narrow stretch of land in which grass grows, water flows and life may prosper. Dayward from the Line is a blistering desert of ash and clay, eternally cooked by the never-setting sun. Nightward is the realm of darkness and ice. As far as daring explorers could tell, both stretch on forever. For thousands of seasons, it has been so. <br>

==Action Points==
 +
Action points are used by characters to avoid wiping out hilariously when their life is on the line.
 +
 +
===Gaining Action Points===
 +
A character is created with 1 action point. At the end of every session, every player awards an action point to one other player for something impressive that they did during the session (whether roleplaying or in combat). An action point cannot be awarded more than once for a particular action. A character may not have more action points than their level.
 +
 +
===Spending Action Points===
 +
Once per round (resetting as soon as the initiative count goes back around to the first character), a character may spend action points to:
 +
* 1 action point: Replace the result of a d20 roll you just made with a 10, before you know the result
 +
* 2 action points: Replace the result of a d20 roll you just made with a 20, before you know the result (this is not a natural 20)
 +
* 1 action point: Add +1d6 to the result of a d20 roll another character just made, before they know the result
 +
* 1 action point: Automatically stabilize at -1 HP when reduced to between -1 and -9 HP
