Spoiler: Setting (click to show/hide)

The game's setting is the Post-Apocalyptic L.A Area, overgrown and mostly buried after years of biological and nuclear warfare and centuries of nature reclamation. There are 4 main regions: The Northern and Lower Freeholds, The Purist Empire, and Aberratia. There is also the Mecha, Robots bent on world domination. The wildlife is now filled with mutated flora and fauna, bio-weapons, and savage, deformed, humanoids. Nearly 300 monstrosities to be afeared of to be exact, and that's not counting the multiple varieties of Mankind. Also, technology wise, is Mostly Dark Age, with Hints of Future and Modern Tech.

Spoiler: Playable Character Types (click to show/hide)

With the world being blown to smithereens and twisted into a deformed monstrosity of itself, Humanity no doubt went through the wringer. Here's what came out.

Pure Stock Humans: Regular old humans. They get 10 free points to spend, and 2 rolls on their own bonus chart.
Trans-Humans: Humans Plus. They get bonuses to all their stats.
Clones: Mass-Produced Humans. Comes in three varieties(Military, Labor, and Comfort). Each type gets their own stat rolls, separate from humans.
Bio-Replica: Flesh Robots. The closest thing you'll get to being a robot (for now, until the expansion adds playable Robots and Androids). Comes in 5 varieties(Pleasure, Industrial, Clerical, Infiltration, and Battle). They do not age, but self-terminate after a period of years. Each type gets a separate stat roll from the others, like clones.
Cyborg: Humans with Robot Parts (Mutborg, in the upcoming expansion, will be a mutant with Robot Parts).
Beastial Humans: Man-animals, with a chance of Mutant powers too! Comes in many varieties, with some examples being Alligator, Bear, and Mouse.
Ghost Mutants: X-Men. look human, have superpowers.
Mutants: Horribly deformed monstrosities. Mascots of the game. Range from simply Mild, to a borderline Freakish Horror!

Spoiler: Castes (click to show/hide)

There are quite a few, but they can generally be grouped into 5 major types. The game assumes you left the lifestyle in some way, to become a Murder Hobo! Excavator.

Caste Types:
Slave: Labor, Kitchen/Maid, Servant, Pleasure, Court, Gladiator.
Common: Fisher, Hunter, Miner, Logger, Farmer, Nomad
Educated: Trader, Craftsman, Student, Scribe, Technician
Criminal: Urchin, Thug, Raider, Pirate, Thief, Assassin
Warrior: Draftee, Militia, Watchman, Infantry, Calvary, Mercenary, Elite

Spoiler: Character Creation (click to show/hide)

 Optimized to be fully randomized, with tables galore. Basically, the game's main choices are your Race, Caste, and what hand you use and if you're a good swimmer. Height and weight are also important, since they factor into fall damage and other important bits. Height is in centimeters, and weights in Kilograms. Here's a conversion calculator for all of you Americans out there. I will be randomly generating these options, and letting you decide amongst the choices.

Stats:
Endurance: How tough you are. This is your health.
Strength: How strong you are. Improves Strength based damage.
Agility: How fast you are. Max +4 Initiative.
Accuracy: How good of aim you are.
Intelligence: How smart you are.
Perception: How aware you are.
Willpower: How hard-headed you are.
Appearance: How HOT you are. This won't be high for very long.

Skills: These are basically the things you know how to do. Determined by your Caste.

Mutation/Implants: Extra bits you get for being a Freak/Half-Robot.

Inventory: What you have with you at the time of creation. Determined by inventory code, based on your Caste.

Spoiler: Combat (click to show/hide)

 You move in meters, and have an attack number, telling you how many attacks you have per turn. Most of you will run 6 meters, walk 3 meters, and have one attack. To land an attack you must roll at or under the Strike Range, which is Strike Value-Defense Value. 1 is a critical strike, 2-4 is an auto-hit, 96-99 is an auto-miss, and 100 is a fumble.

 There are also Hazard Checks, which are letter coded. The higher the Letter, the harder it is to avoid the hazard. You match up the hazard letter with the appropriate stat, and roll at or under the target number to win the check. Certain Skills and Mutations will allow you extra checks to pass the hazard.

Spoiler: Here's how it works. (click to show/hide)

Choose a character Type for each Character. Color Red your choice and Scratch out the rows and columns above, below, and beside the Red choices.

Ex.     
Character 1: Severe Mutant/Pure Human/Military Clone
Character 2: Military Clone/Battle Bio-Replica/Pure Human
Character 3: Cyborg/Ghost Mutant/Pure Human

In this list, I decide I want the Bio-Replica.
Character 1: Severe Mutant/Pure Human/Military Clone
Character 2: Military Clone/Battle Bio-Replica/Pure Human
Character 3: Cyborg/Ghost Mutant/Pure Human

Due to my choice, I lose out on some choices
Character 1: Severe Mutant/Pure Human/Military Clone
Character 2: Military Clone/Battle Bio-Replica/Pure Human
Character 3: Cyborg/Ghost Mutant/Pure Human
Now I can only choose between the Mutant, Clone, Cyborg, and Human.

So I decide to choose the Cyborg, leaving me with the Clone being the only choice.
Character 1: Severe Mutant/Pure Human/Military Clone
Character 2: Military Clone/Battle Bio-Replica/Pure Human
Character 3: Cyborg/Ghost Mutant/Pure Human

So, I chose the Clone, completing my sheet.
Character 1: Severe Mutant/Pure Human/Military Clone
Character 2: Military Clone/Battle Bio-Replica/Pure Human
Character 3: Cyborg/Ghost Mutant/Pure Human

Now, with my characters chosen, I will move on to Caste selection, and repeat the process.
Military Clone: Caste 1/Caste 2/Caste 3
Battle Bio-Replica: Caste 1/Caste 2/Caste 3
Cyborg: Caste 1/Caste 2/Caste 3

Tell me if you have interest, and I'll set up a thingy like this for you.

JOIN ME! WE HAVE COOKIES!

[ATHATH]

In!

I have very little idea of how this game works, though! Please explain it to us!

[tntey]

In I guess.

[Twinwolf]

Interested, but could you maybe give some details on the system?

[Salsacookies]

Details will be coming to you tomorrow, via arrow through the knee.(I can use pictures, they're free to use to show the group what they're seeing.)

[NAV]

I'm interested.

[Salsacookies]

Sweet, 4 possible meat fodders volunteers! I will now tell you details.

This is open to expansion. Make sure to let me know if I forgot anything, and hope you enjoy the game. I'll begin once we receive another volunteer.

[Twinwolf]

So, could you give us the sheet we're supposed to actually submit and maybe an example character?

[Salsacookies]

I've Pmed you all a character sheet. That was my idea to still have the game be randomized, but still give you a choice of what you want. I also wanted to make it so you can't just take the good stuff and leave the bad. Does it look okay to you, or is there something better. This game isn't a Dnd type game, and it's fairly unknown, so I had to think up a way that's easy for me to get character creation up and running.

[Twinwolf]

Could you possibly clarify it? It's kind of confusing.

Disregard the Pms I sent you, I'll get your sheets set up here.

So, do we use the option sets that you sent us?
