# The Source 0.2.0

I have been working on a new draft of The Source, which is the name for the system I have been using for tabletop roleplaying games. It is loosely based on Jared Sinclair's 6th Edition [1], but it has a lot more detail and some advice for new dungeon masters on how to play the game. I still need to make character sheets (will probably do them in inkscape or as plain text files), but I'm about ready to call this version 0.2.0.

Here are some of the high level changes that have been made since I released 0.1.0 on patreon:

* DnD attribute names have been replaced with more generic attribute names to make it easier for dungeon masters to figure out what attribute should fit in a given circumstance
* Strength and Constitution have been merged into Tough
* Dexterity has been renamed Quick
* Intelligence and Wisdom have been split into Clever, Perception and Learned
* Charisma has been renamed Charm
* All of the class and race specific documentation has been changed to reflect the stat renames
* I have rewritten the book content with gemtext instead of using Homebrewery, this does mean I don't have embedded images anymore but I would rather this book focus on the actual content over visual aids
* Monsters in The Dwarven Cavern have been slightly rebalanced

I'm still wondering about what to do with the term "Dungeon Master". I think it might be better to replace it with something else (I'm considering a metaphor involving that player being the game world itself, but I still need to plan it out more), but the term is very deeply ingrained into table-top roleplaying game culture. If anyone has any ideas, please feel free to contact me with them.
