About Exodus NDS

A rules engine for stories with consequences.

Exodus NDS is developed by Kaosweaver, Inc. as an open narrative dice system for tabletop roleplaying games.

The core rules define the dice language: success and failure, boon and bane, breakthrough and calamity. Setting books define the world around that language.

Open Core

The core mechanics are published for adaptation under the ORC License.

Setting First

Characters, skills, equipment, and special systems live in setting books where genre can do real work.

Table Ready

The rules are designed to be read online, referenced quickly, and supported by the web dice roller.

Community Built

Discord and Reddit community links will be added when those spaces are ready.
