Random idea for high-lethality D&D campaigns: Character death unlocks new classes and races. Maybe useful in “special snowflake” campaigns where no one reads your carefully crafted setting material. Instead you roll it out piecemeal as PCs bite the dust. “I really want to play a saurian warlock…sure, I’ll take a drink of that mystery potion.” Someone probably thought of this before.
You've indulged my facebook shenanigans, so... what is FATE?
ReplyDeleteAn RPG filling my streams right now since it's in a Humble Bundle deal. It doesn't involve rolling d20s, so it's not one I own. The kids seem to like it.
ReplyDeleteI've had three different people personally recommend it to me, not knowing of my utter loathing of fudge dice.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I need numbers on my dice. Fudge dice are right out.
ReplyDeleteDon't they offer the rules for free? I think I had heard enough about it I wanted to take a look, but never got around to doing so.
ReplyDeleteI believe there is a Fate SRD, yes.
ReplyDeleteTurns out I do have a Fate based RPG. I bought Diaspora because it was the only RPG offered by Barnes & Noble as a Nook Book. Haven't read it.
