CORE RULES
The core rules for OSINT-6 are 5E compatible and built on SRD 5.2.1. The take further inspiration from the E6 variant, which caps character progression at level 6 to keep characters more grounded in the real world and believable fiction.
Some other features of the system include:
Attribute-Based Classes: The Strong Agent, the Agile Agent, the Tough Agent, the Smart Agent, the Intuitive Agent, and the Smooth Agent.
Profession-Based Backgrounds: Analysis, Athletics, Business, Journalism, Law Enforcement, Medicine, Military, Science, and more.
Fixed Hit Points: Not rolling required, characters get (4 + Constitution modifier) points per level. A table is provided.
Feat-Based Equipment: For weapons, vehicles, and other gear to better reflect what it’s meant to do, a small vocabulary of feats has been developed. For example:
Shotgun: Targets within 10 feet have disadvantage on Constitution saves to maintain concentration.
Hunting Rifle: Critical range 19-20 if the attacker didn't move this turn.
Automatic Rifle: Can use suppressive fire instead of making an attack.
