🎭v0.1

Core System

Archetypes & Drives

Two adventurers in the same place rarely behave the same way, because each carries its own personality: a mix of urges like fighting, exploring, socialising, and chasing wealth. Their decisions lean toward what that character actually wants, so behaviour feels varied and believable instead of uniform.

Drives & personality

Each adventurer's personality is a set of competing urges: how much it craves power, wealth, social time, discovery, mastery, and more. When several things are worth doing, it leans toward whichever fits its character rather than coldly picking the highest payoff. A bloodthirsty adventurer usually goes looking for a fight; now and then it still wanders off to trade. You can read any adventurer's personality at a glance on its profile.

Personality biases choices, it doesn't dictate them: even a homebody surprises you now and then.

Picking its battles

Adventurers fight things worth fighting. They shrug off monsters far below their level as a waste of time, take on anything in a sensible range above them, and skip enemies they can't actually reach. Among the fair targets, the more aggressive the character, the more eagerly it wades in.

Roles & group composition

Archetypes line up with the familiar MMO roles, and a balanced group clears content a soloist can't:

  • Tank: soaks damage and holds the monster's attention.
  • DPS: the damage core.
  • Healer: keeps the group standing.
  • Support: buffs, control, and utility.

You don't assign roles; the mix emerges from who's around and willing. You shape it indirectly, through where you put content and how your population skews.

This article describes MMOS v0.1 behaviour. The game is in active development, so systems will grow and change. Expect this to be revised as it does.
