I've not been playing with my online gaming group for a few months, but when I was, I was playing a sentient gelatinous cube, who's just the happiest and friendliest thing ever. Last night I was able to rejoin, and we managed to pull off a great surprise. The PCs were led into a trap, and suddenly all sorts of oozes and jellies started appearing. The DM did a great description of an ominous, looming gelatinous cube approaching, and one side started to form into a face... Which oozed into a mouth and said.... Which is when I popped into the call and laid on the familiar happy, friendly voice and said a hearty hello and nice to see everyone again! Perfect timing, great build-up, everyone loved it. Such a great theatrical moment.

I am one in 200. Someone like me is at every concert, every school, in every workplace. Every town, every street, every neighborhood. Every store, every mall, every park. Every government, every nation, every continent. Me and my people have been here since time unrecorded and we will be here to the end of humanity. We will not be eradicated.

I kinda feel bad for the people who think Trump would only hurt us and not them. At the same time, they'll have a lot of fun harming us.

It's much more likely now that vigilante bigots will feel emboldened, so keep an eye out and never count on anyone to save you. Find allies and avoid being isolated if you live in red country. Groups of fascists will not hold back on killing, and the cops will do more than passively allow it. The danger is very real, and you will not be able to resist multiple people on your own. Fight unfair because they never will. Get every advantage you can.

Fluff n' Fury, a cy-bear punk TTRPG about friendship and punching billionaires

The Kickstarter page just went live!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/weirdplace/fluff-n-fury-a-cy-bear-punk-ttrpg

The future is bleak. Climate change has wrecked the world and has created unliveable conditions. But humanity always persists. The rich developed humanoid Syths to transfer their minds into. The rest of us? Well, everybody had one of those little robot-teddie AI assistants that was the latest craze...

Fluff n' Fury is a rules-lite TTRPG set in a dystopian future where you go on missions with your rag tag crew and wreak havoc on the rich! The game is best for 3-6 people with a GM, and uses a simple d6 system loosely based on the Year Zero Engine. Easy to learn and quick to set up, its perfect for introducing the hobby to new players. The optional modules in the book can be used to increase complexity for veteran players, or make the story more campaign or more combat focused.

The system is a hacked version of The Year Zero Engine similar to games like Alien. The game focuses on a rules-light, shenanigans-heavy approach where we want to keep the game flowing and fun, and minimize stalls for mental math or rules-lawyering. We feel the approach incentivizes players and the GM to come up with ridiculous and wacky possibilities for the story to go in.

A few features of the system:

  • D6 Dice Pool System where 6's are equal to Successes. GMs can add F*Dice, where any 1's rolled on a F*Die will cancel out a success that you have rolled. It's our way of modifying the difficulty class of any actions performed.
  • Weapons Always Hit, no need to worry about Armor Classes! You are a cyber teddie built to fight. Every attack roll is for damage dealt. A 6 = 1 damage. No 6s? Your bullets dinged their armor, but didn't do any damage.
  • Dice Manipulation Emulates In-Game Actions. Every weapon has a unique dice manipulation mechanic that relates to the type of weapon being used. Machine gun? Have 6 free rerolls every action, like you're spraying bullets nonstop.
  • Each character has a special potentially game-breaking move. This allows players to feel special, have a moment in the spotlight and make the GM sweat a little bit by throwing some wrenches in their perfect plans. (Don't worry, they can only be used once per in game day)

The zine contains everything you need to start playing:

  • 36 pages of full color retro-punk layouts inspired by Cy_Borg (but cute) and old school gaming catalogues
  • Random tables to roll your class, character, quirk, motivation, and background
  • Unique dice mechanics for every weapon to make combat more engaging
  • The gritty world of Patch City, and the 12 gangs and corporations that vie for control
  • Three one-shot adventures fully written and included to start playing asap!
  • Optional modules to customize your playing experience (Levelling up, C-C-C-Combos, Defects, and more!)
  • An NPC table populated by our wonderful Revolutionary Leader tier backers (make your own custom teddie, name it and be featured in the zine!)

Check it out on Kickstarter today!!

Thank you for your time if you made it down this far! We hope you get a chance to play this silly little game of ours :)
