Freaks • 2016 rpg

freaks

We're playing heroes mighty, but maligned; devoted, but shunned. Feared by the same people they protect.

Freaks.

START
Think up a character. Golem. Vampire. Angel. Vampire angel? Go nuts.

Pick a Specialty:
-  Sneak
-  Fight
-  Manipulate
-  Use Powers
-  Investigate

Define Your Power
- List Blessings. Think "thematically related; but incomplete."
- List Banes. Why are you a freak?

These can color scenes. If they'd affect a Conflict, say how.

PLAY
Establish character(s), setting, situation. Ask questions, use the answers.

Each scene, everyone wants stuff. Play your guy and push for it; you'll hit a Conflict.

Grab one FUDGE die for your GOAL and one for the RISK. (No risk? No roll.)

ADD A DIE IF...  
... there's another Risk.  
... Banes have effect (stop here).  
... Blessings have effect.  
... your Specialty matters.  
... you're prepared.

Roll.

1. If Banes apply, discard the best die.
2. If Blessings/Specialty/Preparation apply, discard a bad die for each.
3. Assign dice to Goal and Risks.

Goal Die:  
    + Goal achieved.  
    0 Mixed success.  
    - Opportunity lost (for now).  

Risk Die:  
    + Risk defeated  
    0 Danger Remains  
    - Injury, Loss, Goal interference

If Danger/Injury Remains, it becomes an Added Risk whenever, until you fix it.
