1. PREFACE AND INTRODUCTION Dear player, welcome to ConQuest.

The rule-set of the ConQuest Event is structured in order to allow many players from different Countries to play together. We knew that we had to avoid to shape this rule-set too comple so that the chance to participate could !e given to !eginners as well as e pert players of all nations. "ro!a!ly we missed or forget a few skills, spells or rule-sets somewhere along the process. The idea !ehind was to find a good !alance to make it easy to convert an e isting Character and#or create a new one. This of course leads to the $uestion of how many rules are needed for a %&'" anyways. (ince this set of rules is supposed to apply to Con$uest of )ythodea a!ove all, it is our opinion it should contain an a!solutely necessary minimum of a!ilities and frameworks that are to !e followed strictly* +n top of that, the most important rule applies, "lay along* -f someone interacts with you, react* -t doesn.t matter how you react, !ut stay in character and react to the other player.s actions in game. &t the same time do not e pect a specific reaction to your own actions from your fellow players. &ccept other people.s actions and continue playing on the !ase of that. &s long as all participants adhere to this simple course of action, everything you.re doing will contri!ute to an e citing game for everyone. Enough introduction, en/oy reading and memori0ing these rules and most importantly have a lot of fun at ConQuest, we1re glad you1re here with us* 2our ConQuest Team

2. ESSENTIALS 2.1. THE GAMEMASTERS (GM, IN GERMAN: SL) To ena!le a smooth flow of the ConQuest Event and to help you in every possi!le way, e.g. with Questions a!out 'ules and playing, you can always contact the Team of 3amemasters that are present on the whole &rea. & mem!er of the ConQuest +rgani0ation is easy to recogni0e, They wear nota!le +ut-time clothes with a special design, for e ample a white T-shirt with a ConQuest logo and a !adge. This is done for security reasons, and to make it easy to recogni0e them in any possi!le 4dangerous5 situation. 2ou may also contact them with $uestions or pro!lems not related to the game itself, e.g travel informations, parking and so on. Decisions of a 3) within the game are o!ligatory and have to !e followed 6 it is necessary for a game that is played together !y so many participants. -n some cases mem!ers of the ConQuest +rgani0ation participate in the game.

They will of course !e dressed up, !ut are still recogni0a!le !y a red passport.

2.2 TERMINOLOGY To handle (ituations regarding the game for all in an easier way, there is a special terminology that we will use on the ConQuest Event. The follo !"# $%ll& %"' &!#"& e(!&) : T!*e I" (C%ll): &lso known as 7-n 3ame7, or 7-T7 for short. 8sually, when the game has !egun, any location in the designated gaming area is 7in time7. Conse$uently, every participant is e pected to !e in character anywhere and at any given point of time during the game. +nly e ceptions to this rule will !e designated 7out time7 areas 4see !elow5 T!*e O+) (C%ll): Everything that is la!elled 7+T7 does not !elong to the ongoing game. 9y decision of the gamemasters and#or CQ-officials or in cases of emergency the game can !e put on hold in a chosen area for a certain amount of time 4see !elow 7Time +ut- Time -n7# 7 (topp7 # 7Time :ree0e7 5. &lso, there are permanent 7+T7- 0ones clearly and visi!ly marked, such as the paramedics. areas or the ;"C camp, for e ample. S)o, (C%ll): -n dangerous situations or when some!ody is in/ured 4really in/ured5 the game must !e stopped immediately. To this effect the call <(top= is used, meaning every!ody should immediately stop the game. &ll actions must stop and only the person who has issued the call or a referee can re-start the game. This is a very important safety aspect and one should not use it lightly, only in dangerous situations. T!*e F-ee.e (C%ll): +nly an official of the ConQuest +rgani0ation can us this call. When called it means that the game <free0es= for a short period of time, meaning that all players should close their eyes and hum. This stops when the call <Time -n= is issued again. &t this point the game re-starts as if it had never stopped. ;e t to the calls we use different colours with each colour having a specific meaning during the ConQuest event. :or e ample different coloured !ands e ist, which can !e attached to weapons for e ample. Yello C%-' (S!#" /0 GM): -f someone reacts within a game or fight situation in a too harsh way, the 3amemasters can issue a yellow card on them. This means, that the participant should take some minutes to rethink the whole situation and cool down. &s e ample, yellow cards are issued under following conditions, & player hits too hard, too fast, not in a controlled way or, especially, targets deli!erately head, neck or groin. -n the end, this is only a game and we are all there to have fun.

Re' C%-' (S!#" /0 GM): & red card shown to a player means that this participant has to leave the fight immediately, or game situations for a limited amount of time and is out of game until the 3) allows him to play again. -f a player does not react accordingly to this penalty, he or she can immediately !e !anned from the Event. :or e ample, this is issued when a player !reaks rules a few or more times, ignores weapon hits in a fight or fights without safety foam weapons.

2.1 COLOUR CODES There is a code of different colours worn as sash or !and on the !ody, o!/ects or weapons that have a special meaning on the ConQuest Event. 2l+e: & Character that is visi!le wearing a !lue !and is protected !y a magical armour. Yello : "ersons or o!/ects with a yellow scarf or !and are invisi!le, !ecause they are in another plane of e istence. They can sometimes influence the game, !ut cannot !e detected !y normal means.

Within this rule system, every Character-class or 'ace is allowed in principle. &top of that, there is no restriction a!out what the character could choose from magic, alchemy or other skills as long as it is in the rule-set. This means, that every character, regardless if Warrior, )agician, "riest, (haman, 'anger or something else, can choose from the complete set of skills, spells and mi tures. There are no advantages or handicaps for races or classes within the rule system, !ut every player is free to play out self given downsides and disadvantages of his character.

=. CHARACTER CREATION -f you have never created a character !efore, you should consider first what kind of character you would like to play and are a!le to play. There is a great range of possi!le characters you can play and also e otic races, like elves or dwarves. &ll these possi!ilities are only limited !y the players1 imagination. 9ecause of the e isting literature we have a certain image of a typical :ighter, Dwarf, )agic-8ser, Elf, "riest, (haman etc. 2ou can however !reak with these traditional images, as a long a you play a credi!le character. To this effect make-up, masks, costumes, unusual accessories are used with no limits put upon the imagination and resourcefullness of the player. ;ever forget, The rule system only controls the a!ilities of your character, ;+T the culture, history or !ackground of it. This is up to yourself to decide. -f you are looking for ideas a!out costumes or advices for make-up you can visit the forum on the we!site of .l!5e9%'5e")+-e.'e at any time and contact other players there.

E. MAGIC AND ALCHEMY -n this chapter we want to clear up why we standardi0ed the effects of spells and alchemical )i tures. 'egardless whether the effect comes from )ages, "riests or Elementalists, "otion makers, &lchemists or pharmacists, they all have something in common, They create different Effects on other !eings or themselves. :or us it.s completely clear that any of these Classes are trying to get an effect in many different ways, and that they can e plain it with several Theories. ;evertheless, the effect stays the same. -n order to keep track of the effects, regardless through whom they are created, we unified them. 4(ee chapter CD.G, %ist of all (pells and )i tures5. This offers some new possi!ilities to magical and alchemical skilled characters. &ll the effects have a mandatory way of action, duration and a word of command. 4see chapter CD.G %ist of all the (pells and )i tures5 The o-' of $o**%"' *+&) /e &,o7e" %f)e- )he ,-e,%-%)!o" of )he &,ell o- ,o)!o". The word of command is always the name of the spell or mi ture. & player who is only a!le to understand the word of command 4;ot the entire spell or preparation5 , e.g in a !ig !attle, can !y this !e sure to play out the correct effect. This way, we are sure to stop discussions without restraining the characters in their individual gameplay. Effects with the same name in different values need all the weaker versions to !e known !efore the mightier can !e learned. Effects that are created !y )agic, can not !e neutrali0ed through &lchemy and !ackwards. &s long as you cling to the frame and mode of action of the 'ules for )agic and &lchemy, the way how you act it out is completely of your choice. 2ou can choose the components and way of representing the spell during play freely !y yourself. (till, the corner points have to !e fulfilled. )eans, the magician has to use after his spell the word of command and at least the minimum count of words for the spell, the alchemist has to o!ey the !rewery times and !oth of them need to act out the activators of the effect 4throwing a component and hit the opponent, drink or get one into contact with the !rewed mi ery, etc.5 2elo , % $l%-!f!$%)!o" of )he &,e$!%l '+-%)!o"& of )he '!ffe-e") effe$)& D+-%)!o" l%&)& +")!l &,e$!%l $o"'!)!o"& %-e *e) This means, that the effect will last until the caster fulfils special conditions.

E.1 MAGIC When we talk a!out <)agic= or <magic a!ilities= within the conte t of a %arp, we want to print out that %&'" is /ust a 3ame, a made up play and that no!ody really !elieves that such powers e ist outside the game in reality. M%#!$ Theo-0: The word magic is only a generic term for all the diversity of arcane powers that a Character potentially has at his disposal during a %&'" event. There are, of course, a lot of possi!le classes other than the typical )agic-user, (hamans, every kind of "riest, Witches, Druids etc. are for the sake of ease all classified as =)agic-usersA. ;aturally every Character should have his own personal idea of the working of magic, and even when every!ody is using the same spells 4see further down5, the used Components and formulas may differ, and we also encourage magic-users to do so. A &,e$!%l "o)e fo- ,-%$)!$!"# FM%#!$G !" )he f!$)!o"%l $o+")-0 of M0)ho'e%: (ome Characters receive their power from <higher 9eings= like 3ods or (pirits. :or e ample, clerical powers that are used !y "riests, "aladins, Templars or others, or demonic magic that is called up !y Witches, Evocators or others. &ll these <higher 9eings= have no direct contact to their mortal person or !eing as long these dwell within the !orders of )ythodea. & priest can feel the presence of his god, !ut cannot access his power directly. :or such players, this means to contact a 3amemaster and ask what happens when they try. De*o"&)-%)!o"@Pl%0: Technically, every spell stays the same whatever Character casts it, even when differences would make the game richer. & traditional )agic-user, who learned his spells at an academy will use a fan or similar component for the spell =3ust of WindA whereas a (haman would use feathers or something similar. The )agic-user has to !e a good performer, !ecause he has to convince the other players of the presence of unnatural powers, although they do not e ist in reality. ;o matter whether he tries to achieve that in a secretive, wise, a!sent minded, low profile or e travagant way, he always has to have a certain talent and capacity to perform his magical gift convincingly. S,ell9*%#!$: The most common and used form of casting magic. With this method, the caster com!ines a component apt to the spell with a fitting spoken phrase 4there are no restraints to the individuality of what language to use. (ome use german, some latin or greek or even fantasy languages to cast5. Thus the caster creates a

connection to a source of magic and is then a!le to channel the power of this energy. +ther theories are accepted too 6 it is all up to your own fantasy. The Term <(pellmagic= refers to all spells casted in a <normal way=. The ta!les 4Chapter CD.G %ist of all (pells and )i tures5 mark a certain amount of words that have to !e spoken as <magic phrase=for every spell and its level. We do not present any wording, !ecause of all the different magic concepts of our players. 2ou can decide freely your own spell, you only have to stick to the amount of words uttered for a given spell. This means, too, that you &%W&2( have to cry out the command word of that spell 4;ame of the (pell5 after you have finished casting, so that every other player understands you and can correctly react to what you have done. M%#!$ Pool: Whenever a Character wants to perform magic, this is not done without mental strain, !ecause the casting of (pellmagic also costs a lot of strength. This strength is technically represented !y a so-called )agic pool, from which the )agic-user can draw his strength to cast spells. -t represents his magical potential. The )agic pool consists of E"1s that have !een invested in the )agic pool and that have there!y !een converted in )agic "oints. &dditionally, one may invest points in the skill &dditional )agic "oints and those invested E"1s are transformed into )agic points. & Character that knows the )agical spells 3ust of Wind 4> )"5, )agical &rmour C 4> )"5, )agical &rmour > 4J )"5, )agical )issile C 4C )"5 and additionally has invested > E"1s in the skill &dditional )agic "oints has a total )agic pool of CC )agic "oints. This means that he or she can use a total of CH )agic "oints per day to cast spells. @ow many times he casts a certain spell in his spell !ook is his own choice. The )agic pool can !e regenerated in three different ways, The first method is to sleep. 3 ho+-& of +"'!&)+-/e' &lee, -e#e"e-%)e 3:H of the ma imum of his magic pool, ; ho+-& 'o =:H and when sleeping lo"#e- )h%" = ho+-& 1::H. The second possi!ility is to find a master in &lchemy who can create a special potion called Energy :luid that allows a )agic-user to $uickly regain )agic "oints. Re&)-!$)!o"&: To stay true to the classic image of a )agic-user, "riest, (haman, Druid etc. a magically gifted Character cannot cast spells anymore when wearing metal &rmour. This is also true for a chain mail shirt. The same is valid for !attle, -f a )agic-user doesn1t cast any spells !ut actively gra!s a weapon and starts fighting or if he is physically attacked 4or wounded5 he has interrupted his casting !ecause he !reaks his concentration. ;aturally a fleeing )agic-user cannot concentrate enough anymore to cast a )agical spell. %earning new spells is not a mere =!uyingA from a list. The "layer has to ac$uire them in a logical way within the game. 4+f course there is some e ception during the creation.5 &s e ample, new spells could !e ac$uired through a visit at an &cademy, through meeting up with a teacher, finding and studying scrolls and other methods. &s

stated !efore, learning a new skill#spell takes an amount of time and should !e played out accordingly. &ll possi!le (pells and )i tures can !e found in Chapter CD.G. +thers than those are not allowed on the ConQuest Event.

E.2 ALCHEMY &lchemy is the lore of analysing and !rewing different kinds of su!stances, potions or poisons. &lso, similar to )agic-users, the role-playing of the preparation is e tremely important. (tarting with the collection of the specific her!s, and continuing with the preparation itself 4light the fire, !oil water, crush the her!s, use phials and filters etc.5 the preparation ends with the analysis, heating up, distillation, filtering and !rewing. 8nlike )agic users, the alchemists have no limit in performing their arts !y spending points, !ut they are limited !ecause of the preparation time re$uired for each potion or salve. The alchemists also have to rest at least I hours with undistur!ed sleep !efore !eing a!le to have the necessary concentration to perform new tasks the ne t day. :or e ample, an alchemist that knows the recipe for <Truth (erum= would !e a!le to !rew it around JB times a day 4>D )inutes per "otion and I hours of sleep5, as long he or she would do a!solutely nothing else than that. 2ou may !rew more than one portion at a time 4like, in the same cauldron5, !ut then the potion takes more time to !rew. &s e ample, H "ortions at the same time in one process take C hour to !rew 4H >D mins5. 9asically, there are two ways for the potions to affect someone, <(wallow= and <Contact=.

E.1 RITUALS Where the limited effects of (pellmagic, &lchemy or other skills reach their limits, the wide field of con/uring in rituals !egins. Whether the )agic-user is trying to con/ure a creature from another plane, resurrect a friend that died too early in a !attle, curing a group of Characters from the effects of a magical disease, or create very strong magic effects to !e a!le to win an important !attle, The possi!ilities of 'itual )agic are virtually limitless. -n general, one can say that 'itual magic is performed when one or more Characters want to do such special tasks that normal <Tools= cannot reali0e them. (ince )ythodea is a land ruled !y Elements and their &vatars, with special preparation and full effort even nonmagic Characters could do rituals in the name of the Elements. &lthough such people should keep in mind that they are not trained with the use of magic. Which means, that it is easier for a magician to do such tasks than for a warrior. 9ut if the warrior does the ritual in such a considerate way that it does not e ceed his mental a!ilities, it is possi!le that he is successful. & !asic principle for every 'itual, -f there is a good e planation -nTime, the acting and playing comes always first. E(%*,le: & group of +rc Warriors that dance three hours around their totem post, play the drums, sing along and scream on top of their lungs could con/ure up a powerful effect of the same magnitude than a group of magicians chanting a while in a ritual circle. &lways keep in mind that you have to !e careful with rituals 6 their ending and result is mostly incalcula!le. -t is good to group skilful people under your flag that are a!le to do such tasks !efore you try something adventurous like this. & ritual means an even !igger effort of acting than the performance of (pellmagic. Depending on what you want to do and parameters given !y the 3)s, a ritual could have a duration !etween minutes and several hours. Thus, you need a good concept, components and ideas how to do it. &nyhow, you have nearly limitless possi!ilities in what a powerful ritual could con/ure up. 9ut, (ince a participant has to concentrate really hard during a ritual and it re$uires strength and stamina to do such tasks, )h!& $h%-%$)e- $%" o"l0 )%7e ,%-) !" % *%(!*+* of 2 -!)+%l& ,e- '%0, %"' he o- &he !& o"l0 %/le )o /e )he le%'e- of &+$h % -!)+%l o"$e % '%0.

E.3 ARTEFACTS AND OTHER PERMANENT MAGIC O2IECTS To keep the game fair and !alanced, no &rtefacts may !e !rought to the ConQuest Event with the one e ception of &rtefacts that are created or found during the event or where created or found in previous ConQuest Events and have a Check-in (ign from the 3)s.

Those persons have to deposit their -D-Cards as pawn and can get them !ack when the palisade is completely !uild down.

This segment of the palisade has to !e reacha!le from the in- and outside of the camp in emergency cases. The whole wall has to !e constructed in a way that you can put it down in small segments during a !attle to simulate destroyed wall-parts. The way you !uild it is considered !y us in our decision of how many damage it can take during a !attle through siege weapons and rams. The ma imum time of sta!ility you can reach for one segment is HD minutes - depending on the way you !uild it up.

11.2 MAGIC PALISADE 6ALLS )agic palisades are taken as e$uivalent to wooden constructions according to the rules of this event. Their 7sta!ility7 is depending on the effort that you put in points like design, !uilding it up, ritualising it.

11.1 UNDER SIEGE @ow is a siege to a camp played out\ To remove security risks like :ights !etween the Tents and Camp fires, every camp gets an area that it has to secure. This area is placed ideally to one side of the camp 4most often at the front side5. Within this area the camp participants are not allowed to !uild up tents or place else o!/ects. This !attle 0one has to !e completely free of anything. This part of the camp is deemed as main entrance of the camp and is the su!stitute for the whole camp and can !e secured !y you through walls, a gate and else means. The !oundary is without connection to the tents of the camp. The measurements of this area will !e set !y the 3amemasters and depends on the amount of players in this camp. & camp with GDDR players has to defend a !igger area than a camp with only CDD players.

S!e#e %"' Co"A+e&) of % $%*, When an enemy attempts to attack the camp, his army has to !ring con$uest to the !attle 0one of this camp. & camp is deemed to !e con$uered when the aggressor was successful in getting the palisade down and has at least won over QGU of the !attle 0one area 4This is decided !y the 9attle Coordinators - not the camp 3amemasters during the fight5. With this, a >D minutes countdown starts. -f the aggressor has won for longer than this >D minutes over at least QGU of the !attle 0one, the camp defenders have to leave the camp. -n case the aggressors have won over the camp or is trying to hold the !attle 0one for even longer time, every attempt to regain control over the own camp has to !e tried from outside. & con$uered camp looses all !anners of power 4ma imum G5 and all people living in this camp will loose C %ifepoint for the ne t day. This effect is non-cumulative, meaning if a camp is loosing a fight for more than C time a day it stays with the loss of /ust C %ifepoint. (imulating !urning Tar, heated oil and else We ask you to /ust forget this idea. The simulation of such anti-siege measurements may !e logical, !ut the +uttime Effects of this simulation often creates more trou!le than it is worth. :ights !etween the tents and generally within the camp outside the !attle 0one are for!idden. 2ou are not allowed to attack from inside the camp tent area. ;o spells, no !olts, no arrows or else.
