Zelda Universe RPG

• As mechanics are going to be fairly loose, so are enemies. They won't have full profiles. At best, you see their stats and the names of their abilities, but you don't actually see what they do until they actually use the move in-quest.
  
• We're not going to use Turn Order. Instead, at the start of each battle, everyone rolls to see if they get into the Bonus Round. Everyone still gets one turn per round, but the order is essentially "cast fast and you're first".
  • This also allows for much easier-to-do combination shenanigans.
    
• What does loose mechanics actually mean, anyways? Nutshell, you can interpret moves based on their descriptions and crazy logic. Effectively, you can now battle entirely by roleplay instead of the specific rules of everything.
  • The basics of rolling the stats and costs and whatnot are still the same though. Also, note that the DM moderates the bonuses, though usually that ends up in your favor... unless your roll suuuuuuuuuuuucks.
    
• Since enemy profiles aren't written up, should you steal something, I'm not going to write up a full item for you to add to your profile; I'll just note what it is and what it does in chat, notate that into the profile however you want.

• Enemies are gonna have Reactions, which allow them to do something directly in reaction to an attack, like a trap card in Yugioh. These are either once-per-round or have a cost attached to them. However, since the same kind of action doesn't exist in most cases for players... you can use one of your Actions for the round as an actual reaction. ATTACK VS. ATTACK, BRING IT OOOOOOOON! Or heck, if you wanna armor up with a support spell, that could work too. Or pop a potion. Or... yeah, you get the point.
