Modern System: Character Disadvantages

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Characters are not just a collection of abilities for attack and defense. Their flaws add to their appeal just as much (if not more) than their heroic deeds. A character with a newspaper editor hounding him, a sickly aunt, no love life, and the worst luck imaginable is possibly the most recognized character in the history of literature. Why? Because while we can?t identify with being able to fly through the air or have bullets bounce off our skin, we can identify with sick relatives, late bills, and no date on Saturday night. The more we identify with the hero of a tale, the more engaging that tale becomes.

Character Disadvantages is a slightly tweaked version of the disadvantage system that first appeared in Blood and Vigilance.

This attractively laid out pdf presents a system of disadvantages for any d20 modern game. The disadvantages give no "up front" benefit, but only provide a benefit when they acutally disadvantage the character. This prevents rules-lawyering [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
