This mod was designed to walk the line between realism and fun engaging gameplay. Where realism became grindy or not fun I tried to aim for engaging gameplay mechanics with a focus on risk and reward and a strong sense of consequences. Death in this mod is permanent with few exceptions. In this mod when death occurs your player data is wiped and you will respawn as a fresh new player.
Choosing Your Character - Upon starting, players will have Knowledge Points available to purchase up to 3 Traits, a Hobby and a Profession. These choices will determine the players starting stats, items and recipes. Players are able to learn all Professions over time by collecting 20 Profession Pages and crafting another Professions Kit. An additional Hobby can be learned after 20 days survived. Traits do not stack and are optional. The following are the Players Starting Choices.
Professions All can be learned by collecting loot items during game, Unique recipes cannot be learned any other way. Do not stack
