Shit Future is out!


“The gods watch the earth once again, floating slow time in twinkling satellites.

Inside the brown choked atmosphere, mountain ranges have been ousted by feudal zaibatsu arcologies. Deep in their halls, utopia machines eliminate all scarcity.

 But, hierarchy is demanded by the lords of the zaibatsus, as is loyalty and the future of their subjects. There is no questioning the wisdom of ancient blood-lines.

Leave the fortress walls of the arcologies and see the endless lawless streets, the no-corp lands.
You are here, in the underworld, a place of freedom and death.

You are less than the most despicable bug to the corporate pantheon, but what is a god to a non-believer?”

Low is good Attribute Scores for roll high Attribute Tests!

I love attribute tests - but I don't like people who are new to d&d getting confused about combat rolls being roll high and attribute tests being roll low. Here's a solution. 

Low is Good Attributes: 

Your character has 6 attributes. You want these as low as possible! 

To determine a score for each roll 3d6 and minus the result from 22. 

  • Weakness – to test if your physical strength fails you. 
  • Clumsiness – to test if your physical dexterity fails you. 
  • Frailty – to test if your physical constitution fails you. 
  • Ignorance – to test if your wisdom and knowledge fails you. 
  • Stupidity – to test if your intelligence and wits fails you. 
  • Repulsiveness – to test if your charisma and charm fails you. 

To Test: Roll a d20. Success = Roll equal to or above your attribute score (plus/minus modifiers as required).
