My guess for "set track advancement" would have been something like a fixed progression track. For example, "If you are a wizard, you get Darksight at level 3, Flight at Level 5 and Fireball at level 7" or something like that. Conversely, I'd have guessed "diagetic advancement" might be XP you can spend freely in some kind of advancement sandbox.

A pity, I'm too late. The IC threads look really fun. I'd love to join if you run it again.

To follow up on my last post, I understand that the whole thing was a mess, and I take responsibility for that. However, the appropriate response is not to sell the game to someone else instead. That’s happened more than once this weekend, and it’s incredibly disappointing.

This is why homebrew is easier imo, frankly. 10x easier to describe something holistically that you built in your head, rather than reading through someone else's ideas and trying to present them coherently.

I don't use any. I enjoy creating characters enough that I make them just for fun sometimes, so the last thing I want to do is farm out part of it!
