- Advantage and Disadvantage — Rolling three D20s and removing either the lowest value (for advantage) or the highest value (for disadvantage).
- Blessing System — An optional character creation mechanic that grants new characters beneficial starting traits to increase survivability, including legacy inheritance upon death.
- Progress Trackers — Milestone-based trackers used to log quest progress, travel advancement, and connection levels.
- Random Tables / Oracles — Features 50 pages of charts for generating dungeons, cities, neighborhoods, NPCs, names, weather, and wilderness discoveries on the fly.

Quotes (from this video)
- And Solitary Defilement, along with Scarlet Heroes, were basically the the the two things that finally made solo role-playing click for me.
- This whole Mörk Borg system is just how easy it is to modify. Everything is very simple in Mörk Borg.
