From the Cradle's system of conflict resolution is based off of the FUDGE roleplaying system by Grey Ghost Press, Inc. The reason for chosing FUDGE was its extensive customisability: it is a well-known, well-balanced system that is easily adapted to, for instance, an originally-themed science fiction MUSH and which is free for use both for administrators and players. For more information about FUDGE, please visit http://www.fudgerpg.com.
