History QuestFRP is a "pen and paper" role-playing game that is free to the public. The game was created in Wisconsin primarily by Mike Greenholdt and edited by John Woodford and Mary Ellen Testen. Today the game is updated and maintained by its two oldest test players Gene Masters and Todd Richmond.
Gameplay QuestFRP is different from other popular pen and paper RPGs such as Dungeons and Dragons in that it doesn't utilize the d20 system, but instead relies mostly on percentile dice when calculating hits in combat. After a role of percentiles and depending on a charactes "CR" or ability to hit, and an opponents "DR" or ability to protect themselves, an attack my hit one of various parts of the body or simply miss. In addition, QuestFRP differs from traditional RPGs in that there are no classes, but simply skill sets. Players are encouraged to create a custom character using any type of mundane, weapon or magical skills availabe. However, learning rates, the amount of experience points used to learn a skill depends on stat points. For example, the higher a characters "magic talent" statistic, the easier it is to learn spells. So for certain characters, some skills will be easier to learn than others.
