I've been working on my homebrew Fable ttrpg all night, I'm nowhere close to done, my neck hurts, and yet I can't bring myself to just stop for the night. I just keep going. I want to figure out how to translate all the Hero abilities into this game, I need to figure out how they intersect with the spells, trying to maintain a sort of balance without any classes ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I haven't even gotten to the beastiary section

I. Students of FableHeart are encouraged to follow their heart and reach for their goals of their own volition. Be it to follow the footsteps of a higher being or to reject that notion and walk down your own path is entirely up to you. Due to this, there tends to be many conflicts between students but they always come together at the end of the day.
II. As a part of FableHeart, you learn to remember that the end is just the beginning.
III. FableHeart is sometimes regarded as a cursed dorm, many if not all members having some kind of curse or dilemma that could change their life. For better or worse is to be decided.
IV. Students of Fableheart are known for their stubbornness and morality. They all know or are figuring out what they want to do in their future, but one thing for sure is that they’ll do anything to walk down the path they chose.
V. Students in this dorm excel in Ancient Curses and Seminars. It’s nearly impossible to defeat a Fableheart student in a debate or mislead them from a seminar. As for ancient curses…The students of Fableheart know about curses all too well.

PERSONALITY
Castor's jester heritage makes him rebellious and mischevious, as he often enjoys making trouble and having a reckless, destructive behavior, but not inflicted onto anyone. Still, despite being a silly ass, he is still pretty kind and insanely playful and cheerful when you really get to know him, as he is pretty sweet under his 'Court Jester' self.
Castor enjoys cracking tons of jokes in all, every dicussion, whether serious or not. He also loves to perform little circus tricks, whether it's just juggling or walking on a narrow rope. Still, accidents happen, as he has band-aids around his neck, hands and face.
TRIVIA
His smile can be a bit unhinged at times, but mostly when things get awkward.
He's a formal criminal (for eating hotdog SIDEWAYS /J)
Low attention span. You could be blabbering about something important then he's distracted by an apple falling
" Animals has their beauty inside, but humans don't appreciate. Hope someone do. "

I'm working on the loot table for Fableheart and I already have some favourite items ngl
String of a Fairy’s Pearly Whites
A necklace of tiny, glittering teeth taken in revenge for all the teeth stolen from the children of Albion. Fairy and fairy adjacent adversaries must mark 1 Stress when they make a successful Attack Roll against the wearer.
Old Hag's Digits
Not to be confused with a Young Lady's Fingers, this grody charm means that whenever an adversary has to mark a Stress, it marks 2 instead.
Gargoyle's Tongue
An unpleasant charm that enables the wearer to speak to any statue as though it were animated. Hopefully they're nicer than the guy this came from.
I've been revising the structure of the Fableheart document and making it less specific to my group so it can be shared, and I keep thinking about making non-Hero characters playable and giving them classes to make up for a lack of Hero powers, particularly if you're set after the destruction of the Heroes Guild. But then you'd probably have to rescale adversaries and encounters to make the difference between regular people and Heroes more noticeable or something...
