For a while now I’ve really been into an old Star Wars system called Saga Edition that I appreciate greatly for its ability to really customize a character. A major part of that customization comes from its use of a talent system instead of most other systems that automatically assign class features, and I’m curious if there are any other ttrpgs that use talents.
I’m pretty sure the Dragon Age ttrpg also uses them, but what other systems do, and are any of them still actively being produced?
WFRP (Warhammer Fantasy role play) has a fun system where there are lots of careers, but those careers have talent options. Each talent isn’t limited to one career so there is overlap but the combination of talents and skills is what makes the careers unique.
This was probably one of my favorite systems when it comes to just a giant list of potential skills. The way they’re grouped by level and just the crunch of leveling was fun.
