Dodge and Evade work exactly the same way but have different governing stats. Only players with the Evade proficiency may use the Evade governing Stat, all other players follow the rules for Dodge('''E.G.''' Mages who don't have the Evade proficiency still use DEX for dodge attempts).

	Dodge is a different way of calculating Defense. All characters have an innate Dodge ability equal to one-half their Dexterity score. If a character lacks another source of defense(such as an Armor proficiency), they can use this to make a defense role. Additionally, Special Proficiency: Dodge allows a player to build an actual skill based around not getting hit. If a character posses the Dodge proficiency, they use that for Defense rolls. Just like in normal defense, the character looses 1 point of Dodge with ever attack. If they DO NOT possess the proficiency and have NO OTHER defensive proficiencies(such as Armor Proficiency) then their dodge is treated as an absolute minimum and does not go down.

	Magic works a little differently. Each spell is classified as '''Physical''', '''Mystical''', or '''Effect''', and is treated accordingly.		Magic works a little differently. Each spell is classified as '''Physical''', '''Mystical''', or '''Effect''', and is treated accordingly. There is no dice role when casting spells, instead each spell has a base star-rating and is effective against anything up to and including that number. Mages may have abilities that increase the effectiveness of certain spells.

	~~===~~Physical~~===~~		Spell Types Are:
	A Physical Spell is something that has a direct, normal, physical effect. Like a fireball: the attack is literally a ball of normal fire (albeit one that has been created magically). If a spell is Physical, it is treated just like a weapon attack, with attack dice, defense, etc. The player rolls attack as normal.		*'''Physical'''

	~~===~~Mystical~~===~~		*'''Mystical'''
	A Mystical magical attack is one that has some sort of super-natural component. This does not apply to all spells cast under the Mystical Proficiency, nor does it exclude all Elemental spells. ~~When casting a~~ Mystical ~~Spell, the mage roles~~ a ~~number of attack dice equal to his skill in that magic type~~.		**A Mystical magical attack is one that has some sort of super-natural component. This does not apply to all spells cast under the Mystical Proficiency, nor does it exclude all Elemental spells. Because they are more powerful, Mystical spells have a lower base star rating.

	~~The~~ target ~~can then attempt to resist by rolling defense, and just like a normal attack, they need more successes than the caster~~. ~~This~~ may ~~negate the spell entirely~~, ~~or cause only a lesser effect~~. ~~Some~~ spells may ~~allow multiple attempts, with each success lessening the effect and finally negating it~~.		*'''Effect'''
			**An Effect spell is one that does not typically "deal damage". These are usually "buff" weaves that have some sort of positive effect on the target. They may also have negative effects when used on enemies, etc. However, some extremely powerful spells may deal damage or even destroy a target completely.

	~~===Effect===~~		The key element is that Effect spells always succeed. There is no roll; no save. If the spell is cast, the target receives the effect unless they have an immunity to it. In the case of immunities, again, there is no check: if a mage casts a "blind" spell, and the target has blindness-immunity, the spell fizzles and has no effect.

	Evasion functions exactly like Dodge but is capped on Intelligence instead of Dexterity. Characters with both Dodge and Evade by make 2 attempts to avoid being hit.

			Characters with Dodge and Evasion still have a DV score and still loose one dice any time they are the target of an attack. DV is equal to dodge or evasion skill, capped at the appropriate stat. Any rules text that refrences DV can be applied.
