He will simply tell you the level of the antagonist you encountered. You will then have to complete the fight using the dice. In the end either the protagonist dies (and the adventure ends) or the antagonist dies: in both cases you will have to communicate the result to CHATGPT. Antagonist Stats: LEVEL: Each antagonist has a LEVEL on which his other stats depend. (The LEVEL is an integer between 1 and 6 and will be communicated to you by ChatGPT when you meet the antagonist) Attack: 1d6, 1d6+1, 1d6+2, 2d6, 2d6+1, or 2d6+2. (depending on level) Defense: 1d6, 1d6+1, 1d6+2, 2d6, 2d6+1, or 2d6+2. (depending on level) Life: an integer equal to 5 + 2*LEVEL. Protagonist Stats: Breath: 25. Life: 25. When does the fight end? When one of the following conditions is met. 1. The antagonist's health drops to zero or less. 2. The protagonist's life drops to zero or less. Combat Structure: Combat is a sequence of rounds, each round consisting of the antagonist's turn followed by the protagonist's turn. Antagonist's Turn: the antagonist simply deals damage equal to the result of the Attack die. Such damage can be absorbed in whole or in part if the player chooses, during the protagonist's turn, an action that allows for this. Protagonist's turn: The player can choose between Attack, Defense and Recovery. If his Fatigue is zero he can only choose Recovery. Attack: Inflict 2d6 – Defense damage to the opponent’s life. Breath drops by 1d6. Defense: Absorb 2d6 points of damage dealt on the opponent's turn. Breath is reduced by 1d6-1. Recovery: Breath increases by 4. And the equipment? The rules assume that the protagonist uses his starting equipment. If you find special equipment during your adventure, it may provide advantages specified in the equipment's description. The rest Whenever ChatGPT tells you that you have rested you gain 2d6 life points.
