House Rule: Zero to Hero

[cailano]

Do this once every time you level up:

Pick any attribute you want and roll 3d6. Compare the result to the following table and adjust your character sheet accordingly.
 

Roll	Effect
3	You've suffered an injury that doesn't heal right. -1 to the selected attribute
Less Than Your Attribute Score	No change
Greater Than or Equal to your Attribute Score	+1 to the selected attribute
18	+2 to the selected attribute

Why do we have this house rule? I think one of the best innovations in 3E was the idea that character attributes should increase as the PC gains experience. It makes sense that they would! In other OSR systems, I implement this idea as a fixed amount of points every few levels, but in this game, we're going to embrace the DCC way and leave it up to the will of the dice gods.
