@Lord Kyuubi your mechanical musings are interesting, because I think some of your issues with traditional d20 are less about the d20, and more about the impression you have about how to apply them. Anyway, to answer your question, the kind of "test" you're setting is literally just being a GM and creating narratives and roleplaying opportunity.
Also, you're totally not wrong to keep your writing as a hobby. We live in a deeply commercialised world where creativity for its own sake or recreation is thought of as somehow pointless/juvenile/naive unless it's intended to procure a profit. Don't listen to that sort of nonsense, keep doing what you're doing. The core point here is you write stuff for fun and it doesn't need to be a business opportunity. It's on your friend to provide reasoning why you should feel otherwise.
