Field Guide to Floral Dragons 2 - SHIFT Stats Preview! (Patreon)

Here's a preview of this month's Floral Dragon Traits designed for SHIFT, our new RPG system!

Alongside the 5e stat blocks that will be included in the Floral Dragons booklet, we’re once again including an additional PDF that allows the Floral Dragons to be dropped into our new RPG system, SHIFT!

What’s SHIFT?

SHIFT is a pick-up-and-play roleplaying game system developed by Hit Point Press that offers diverse options for Game Masters (GMs) and players alike. Its minimal rule set contains everything a GM needs to facilitate an exciting, character-driven story for the players.

SHIFT is currently in open beta, and the ruleset is available for free here.

What are Traits?

SHIFT is built out of one central element: the Trait.

Traits can describe anything and everything - a superhero's fire powers, a monstrosity’s teeth... even a vehicle's ramshackle engine! Every Trait has a die assigned to it (D4 - D12) that represents the Trait's strength. 💪

Taking dangerous/daring actions moves the story forward, and rolling dice ramps up the excitement. ⚡

When a player rolls the highest result on a die (4 on D4, 10 on D10, etc.) they must shift down to the next worst die. The Trait is Exhausted if its die is a D12 and has to shift down again! 😴

Traits for each of the Floral Dragons this month will be included as a digital PDF as part of your April rewards!

In the meantime, if you’d like to discuss SHIFT mechanics, look for players for your games or talk with the devs, join our SHIFT Discord community where we post daily Traits and answer questions about the system! 🙌
