Communicating in Nilgiri is very important in finding out information from other people. It is the way for organizing campaigns and making new friends.

Exploring in Nilgiri is just as important as communicating. Find new things that other people have not found. Share that information as a token of friendship. Or try and keep that information to yourself as your own means of getting ahead.

Nilgiri has a note economy. Gold and other treasure typically should be turned into the banking guild in exchange for notes instead of coins. The banking guild guarantees the value of the note. Shopkeepers and other established businesses should not have any problem accepting a banking guild note.

Nilgiri has some basic races that you may choose from when rolling a character. Some have certain advantages over others in particular areas. Choose a race depending on what sort of skills you wish your character to develop. Exposed domestication has made city races weaker than their more rustic counterparts in the world of Nilgiri.

• Races

Nilgiri is a class-less system. The skills and spells a player can earn is mapped out by the natural stats you roll when you create your character.

The game relies on a basic system of dice rolling somewhat similiar to games like Rolemaster or D&D. The system presented here is home grown and would not necessarily work outside of computer calculations. Results that end up in fractions would neither be rounded nor truncated internally like they may be in traditional paper based game systems. Also Nilgiri may use a concept of a fractional dice, or odd sided dice which has no practical counterpart. There could be ways to simplify this system to be more “machine” efficient however, we use this pseudo-dice system to help visualize what is going on internally.
