This sounds like a modified Kids on Bikes system as seen in a few seasons of Dimension 20.
Sounds like something on a spectrum between Call of Cthulu 1981 and West of Loathing.
Came to say this same thing, Call of Cthulhu 1981 is a blast, the most fun I’ve had with a TTRPG.
This reminds me of HOL (Human Occupied Landfill), which I’ve read about but haven’t played.
Anyway, it has stats like Meat, Feet, and Mouth, and skills like “That Psycho Bruce Lee Shit”, “Pilot Starship and Chew Gum at the Same Time”, “Whining Until You Get What You Want”, and “Turn Radios Into Howitzers”.
So. FATE?
Surviving any situation would be based on coolness, dopeness, freshness, smartbrain, and dancing ability.
Two of these stats are in my TTRPG (gumption and moxie).
It also features things like pep, knacks, savvy, and nerve.
Uh, link??!? Or is it only on paper?
Made me think about Dimension 20’s Mentopolis. All of these would be characters instead of stats though.
Nice. If they ever do another season of Mentopolis, I hope they get Hank Green to play "The Fix"s younger brother “Childlike Wonder”.
I think chutzpe and moxie used to be stats in Paranoia
Just rework gumshoe
whats a jib?
I know it’s a joke, but: a really small sail.
There could be a debuff called “wishy washy”, it increases your childlike wonder, but lowers your gumption.
This reminds me of West of Loathing
The X of Loathing series is fantastic. Another stat that comes to mind is Hornswogglin’
Um, achtually, Hornswagglin’ is a skill and not a stat B^P
Oh shit i didn’t know it was a whole series
Yeah, it started with Kingdom of Loathing, which is a free to play browser game, and more recently Shadows over Loathing, which has this cool 1920s Lovecraftian setting. All keep that great humor :D
Thank you! My ex gf and I used to play a ton of Kingdom. I knew about “West of Loathing”, but this is the first time hearing about “Shadows Over Loathing”.
love this series so much
Between Kingdom of Loathing and West of Loathing, they’ve got half of these covered.
I feel like Shadow over Loathing might tap into the rest, lol
Hmm… Now I need a Loathing TTRPG.
Jib.
The jib sail is the triangular one at the prow of a ship. Different countries used different designs, so liking the cut of a jib meant you recognized it.
Shush, Gob.
Funny, because ‘gob’ is a slang term for sailor.
The term “gob” is colloquial, originating from the slang used within the navy to refer to sailors. Its use is informal and can carry a tone of familiarity or affection among members of the naval community. On the other hand, “sailor” is the more formal and universally recognized term for anyone who works or serves on a ship, regardless of their specific duties or the type of vessel. “Sailor” encompasses a broad category of maritime professionals and enthusiasts, including those in both military and civilian spheres.
So, sned me $10.00 for a banana
Heres my character for this campaign
Looks like you minmaxed for Gib Cut. I like that.
