Battle of Calling Part 2

Speaker vs Guerrilla Fighter

Speaker - LET THE ART OF SPEAKING WIN!

Guerrilla Fighter - LET THE ART OF FISTS WIN!

Voting ended onApr 14, 2023

So..which one seems attractive to you? Or the calling you would have picked?

[projecthunger]

I sense the vibe....Greetings from the oracle. It seems like votes on speaker and guerrilla fighter are very close. Perhaps a scenario helps some undecided and/or...new players (welcome, btw!) on the calling.

In a desolate land where there is so little or no resources available but a few people and some house tools. You experienced some stresses from trying to survive so hard and you're left with two choices. On your left, you see a small group that carry some rations and they appear comfortable. Mind you, it's about 10 persons in total. On your right side, you see some house tools though a few of them seem rusty and partially cracked. Their size ranged from the arm-length to the foot-length, and they could be sharp or dull.

Which side you would have chosen/taken: going to speak with people or to grab tools? And why?

Please reblog this with your answers! We would love to see what kind of decision you make from this scenario for the battle of callings!

Battle of Callings Result: Oracle vs Hunter

Why Battle of Callings?

Let me summarize what the Battle of Calling is about. We decided to do something for fun where we showcase each calling (aka "class") from our Project Hunger, which we were working on so far. In case you're interested, here's the link: https://dicestew.itch.io/project-hunger. We wanted to see which one that seems attractive to you the most.

Now moving aside, I'm sure that y'all are curious about the poll result between Oracle and Hunter, right?

Here's the result!

Well, it seems like fate is on Oracle's side!

Stay tuned for next post with new Battle of Calling!

[projecthunger]

Which Calling Would You Choose?

Oracle duh! Who doesn't want to fuck with fate?

Hunter! Gotta love my adorable pet!

In Project Hunger, the players will pick their calling (class basically) so we wanna do a battle of callings and see which calling will be the last one remaining.

Which one will you pick and why? (comment in tags!)

Project Hunger by Root | Dice Stew

Sparked by Resistance TTRPG about survival horror in the aftermath of the vampire uprising.

Humans are not alone anymore.  Vampires have risen from the Network to become the rulers of the land.  The United States is no longer, and this land belongs to the Thirteen.  The rare hybrids appeared from the military bases with no memories of their past and are a great danger against the vampires.  Blighteds, former vampiric victims of the hybrids, now something entirely different.  The Great Culling changed everything and humanity is in grave danger. What will humanity look like at the end?

What is Project Hunger?

Project Hunger is a survival horror tabletop roleplaying game based on The Resistance System designed by Rowan, Rook, and Decard.  This hack is designed by Root and Xenon with 3-6 players including 1 gamemaster in mind.  Players can customize their character by picking one of four possible races and one of nine possible classes.  The core rulebook is currently being written including a new mechanic called Moral Meter with its own unique fallouts!

We've released a quickstart for anyone to download and try out! We also have a survey linked so please take our survey if you've ran and/or played at least one session. Enjoy!

[projecthunger]

We are approaching 100 downloads, so we will release a small surprise when we hit 100th download! We will do this for every download milestone! Check out our game and reblog would be greatly appreciated!

Project Hunger Touchstones

Here are some of the touchstones for Project Hunger!

Van Helsing is THE touchstone for Project Hunger. Xenon and I (Root) watched the series and felt like the concept is perfect and exciting to play in a setting where the vampires took over the lands and what that would look like.

Our GM ran the one-shot game using END OF THE WORLD system where we played ourselves including the fact that we are deaf. It was really eye-opening to learn there are multiple layers of decision-making process morally. This sensation enhanced our design process.

Obviously, Spire and Heart TTRPG play huge role in our design process due to being the OG Sparked by the Resistance games. Despite the setting being different, we aim to put the same emphasis on the challenges of accomplish the goal despite the moral dilemmas.

The Last of Us was perfect concept that married modern and post-apocalyptic vibe. We loved how the moral dilemma was presented in different situations. Some of weapons and items were factored in the process of designing starting loadouts.

SEE is an incredible TV series full of moral dilemma and determing the price of survival. Plus, Sibeth and Maghra are the ultimate speakers! (PH class) Some of the characters inspired many of the advances.

I am the Legend is obviously a big nod to the Hunter class because who wouldn't like to have an animal companion tag along and fight together? Some of creatures living in the dark place were definitely added a stroke of colors to the PH lore.

Mad Max is such a classic and big inspiration behind some factions, gnarly ass vehicles made of random junk and spare parts, and perfect for scenarios in the desert!

Fighting for life? More gores? Last minute decisions on jump scare? Resident Evil is perfect recipe to think of various scenarios with limited resources that we wanted to emphasize heavily on being mindful - after all, freebies are not so available anymore on the salvaged land!

Dark, grisly...and NO MORAL COMPASS! Or is it? The Locked Tomb is a beautiful craftwork to be included in the design process including the concept of worldbuilding in the Network domain.

----

What do you think? We would love to hear your thoughts about this! Always interested to see how touchstones could have an impact on TTRPG design process.

EDIT: Forgot to add one more touchstone, the Locked Tomb.

UPDATED: Made a minor edits on the OP's post - reuploaded.
