TTRPG - Delver System v0.2 Rules "Colossal Weapons Update"

Hello there. Attached to this post is a PDF of v0.2 of the Delver TTRPG system. This update focuses on error corrections, but also includes a healthy chunk of new skills and evos. You can find more details in the patch notes below.

There were no significant updates to the crafting or enemy creation guides, so the most current version of those is still found in the v0.1 post in the TTRPG collection. The same is true for the character sheets and Level 1 adventure Tira's Workshop. Those will likely get some overhaul done in a later update.

As always, we're happy to discuss or answer any questions either here or in our Discord.

SPOILER WARNING: While there are not any plot-related spoilers, these core rules do include many evos and skills that have not been featured in the text, but which have a good chance of showing up at some point. The most prominent of which is the titular Colossal Weapons intrinsic skill. Overall, we consider them to be in the class of 'minor' spoilers.
