+===== System Overview =====
+All rolls are 1d6. Roll 1d6 each for the 6 classic abilities. Attack rolls succeed on 5-6. All other rolls are //ability rolls//, which succeed if they roll less than or equal to the relevant ability. Ability rolls are used both as skill checks and as saves.
-Even better, I will also post on this web page **2 adventures** written just for //Dungeon Delvers//, each fitting on a single page: //Village of Troubles// by T.W. Wombat and //Realm of the Rat King// by Brian Fitzpatrick.
+Fighters deal extra hits per level, rogues get a bonus on ability rolls, wizards get one spell per level to use at-will, and clerics can cast any one spell of their choice once per day (more at higher levels).
