Idea: PbtA-style TiTS RPG

[HeroicSpirit]

Basically, the idea is trying to create a roleplaying game using the Powered by the Apocalypse system set in the universe of TiTS. Now, if you need to know about how the system works, the simple explanation is that it is a game whose course is shaped more by the player’s action (successful or not) than by the Game Master, and that rather than rolling a d20 or other special dice, you just roll two six-sided die, usuallly with a modifier added on to it. If you roll 6 or less, you fail at the action; if you roll 7-9, you get a mixed success where the GM presents a hard choice to the player; if you roll a 10 or higher, then you are successful.

Some games using the system are:

-Apocalypse World
-Dungeon World
-Masks
-Monsterhearts
-Monster of the Week
-Uncharted Worlds
-Urban Shadows

Let me know what you think of this idea; if anyone wants to actually do it, I’ll do what I can to help!

You'll probably get a better response in the RP subforum.

Maybe-However, this is less “Roleplay Thread” and more “creating a game that can be USED in a Roleplay Thread.” Minor difference, I understand, but still a difference all the same.

We already have a TiTS RPG in playtest; in fact we're streaming it at this very moment.

5E OGL.

Ah well, I suppose that works.

What rules do you have hammered out?

Basically all of them except class features past 5th level.
