So, as the title says, I am designing a rule set for a table top roleplay from scratch. Problem is, I am worried that what I am designing is not appealing to players and I am unsure how to do certain things. For example, I have no idea how to determine armor. I have no idea how to factor in armor weight and weapon weight to carry weight. Should I be adding a specific equip weight instead of lumping armor and weapon in with it? Critical hits, how am I suppose to determine what classifies as a critical hit? Does a critical hit do three times as much damage or five times? Class abilities, I have no idea what they should be. Once again, I have never designed a rule set before so I am just looking for whatever information you guys can give. The link to the google document of what I have designed so far will be placed below.

Bio
You want to know about me, huh? Well, I am a type 0 super luminous star as classified by the Yerkes Spectral classification system. Now, I know it seems impossible that a star can type on a computer but I don't care about that. I've been roleplaying for roughly four years now. I tend to stick to my fantasy, sci-fi, and anime roleplays but have been known to go beyond that. I am comfortable playing both male and female roles. I have no posting schedule but do tend to be more active in the afternoon and on weekdays. I live in Central Time Zone (UTC-06:00) for those who are wondering.

Lol ya'll are no fun. The answer to my riddle was signature, as in the dust ooc is in my signature. xDI noticed that while I was on my phone. Didn't really think much about it. Just thought that you would tell us about it in your own time. Didn't realize that was what the riddle meant.

Hmm, perhaps my secondary character could be a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Thinking of having him wield Samehada if that is possible or allowed.

Hmm, I am thinking of fire or some sort of metallic manipulation.
So you want the positions of Tactician and Vanguard filled. Hmm, not sure which one I want to make my character out to be. Vanguard would fit well for a Kabuki style character that I have in mind but the tactician also fits well for the design. I think I am going to go for tactician if possible. If Grave wants that character then I will gladly switch to vanguard.

So, what sort of roles does the clan have? I guess there are basic things like guards, soldiers and recruits but is there anything else that they have?
