2. CORE CONCEPTS OF PLAY
2.1 Seekers, Labyrinth, and Discord
You are a Seeker, one of the few who dare to traverse the fractured geography of Solis. The Labyrinth is not merely a place, but a sentient, hostile engine born from the Demon of Discord.
2.2 The Discord Value and Discord Check
Discord is the tension dial of Solis. The Discord Value (Starts at 5) represents the local density of entropy. The Discord Check is the mechanical procedure for shifting this value over time, reflecting the ever-shifting nature of the Labyrinth.
2.3 Timescales of Play
- Scene: Immediate interaction and roleplay.
- Segment: A unit of travel or exploration within a realm.
- Journey: A series of segments leading to a destination.
- Campaign: The overarching story of your Seeker’s descent.
