> All members of the Church of Schisms are Archpriests. It is said, though by whom and to whom none can recall, that to become an Archpriest in the Church of Schisms, one may hold no more than 99 beliefs in common with any other Archpriest. This is the heart of the Schism, that one seed of different belief, elsewhere heretical, but in the Church held sacred. You seek out conformity and excise it, with extreme violence if necessary, and hold novelty in reverence.

====== Schismata ======

Schismata is a tabletop roleplaying game system. This wiki serves as its System Reference Document. 

The basis of Schismata is its effort based action resolution mechanic, which requires players to use their ability scores as spendable resources to power their actions. 

[[schismata:opifex|Schismata: Opifex]] outlines the action resolution mechanics.

===== Implementations =====
Think of Schismata as a system with a thousand faces, so to speak. The base mechanics are the starting point and specify only how to connect together the various pieces to put numbers on a sheet. The nature of that sheet and what kind of character it represents depends entirely on the implementation. Below are some in-development implementations, each namespaced accordingly. These are game settings that distill the mechanics here into playable material.
