Pools

return to Game Mechanics

GGMud does not allow the creation of new pools, but it offers a wide array of pools for new talents and skills to be based on and utilize in different situations.

Multiple stats may contribute to a Pool in an attempt to allow more variation in statistic allocation.

Health Pool

A classic to be sure, it can recover by rest, but this is painfully slow.

Stamina Pool

Your capacity for actions, recovers quite quickly and the recovery speed can be increased with more Resolve.

Mental Pool

Your capacity to perform strenuous mental actions. If your mental pool becomes exhausted, you start rolling against your intelligence when you perform even trivial mental tasks.

Social Pool

You draw from your social pool performing social actions. If your pool is exhausted, attempting social interactions will draw purely from the better of luck or charm and fail rolls will have adverse social effects.
