Publication history
Gygax originally devised ''Lejendary Adventure'' as aGameplay
Like other role-playing games, ''Lejendary Adventure'' is played using polyhedral dice, pencils, paper, and sometimes miniatures. Unlike ''Dungeons & Dragons'', ''Lejendary Adventure'' has a player character creation system that is skill-based rather than ability based, resulting in even more flexible character creation to allow role-playing of almost any kind of character. ''Lejendary Adventure''s still provide Archetypes using "Orders." Orders are guild-like organizations that provide benefits to the characters. Players can also choose to be unordered. Order is determined by the character's first chosen ability. Orders include the Noble, Rogue, and Elementalist. Unordered characters still advance, but they do so without the benefit of a guild. Various races are also available, with different definitions from other RPGs. Races in ''Lejendary Adventure'' include Dwarves, Ilves, Wylves (Ilves and Wylves are two of many Fair Alfar, i.e. what are usually called elves in other RPGs),''Lejendary Adventure'' products
