Three Ability System
The Three Ability (TA) system offers a streamlined micro-RPG that requires only three abilities to create characters for solo and co-op play, with emphasis on storytelling and roleplaying rather than combat quickness or simultaneous fatal action like hero adventure systems do in their quest. Designed specifically as stealth/infiltration campaigns focused towards finding valuable items such as scrolls, classified information etc., this system may be the perfect choice if you're looking for a unique RPG experience that caters to your campaign's style of exploration and discovery quests with emphasis on non-linear storytelling elements like adventure paths or branching storylines.
