Do you support DM-style roleplays?
This is a server-based roleplay community. We no longer support DM-style roleplays, as our goal is to foster an engaging and interactive environment where members can connect with one another. For this reason, we do not allow lurking, nor do we encourage advertisements for private roleplays. We ask that all members remain active and participate within the community. If you are not seeking this type of experience, this server may not be the right fit for you.

What is 'Subgrubs and Snazzards' and why are there 6 of them?
Art by Ambrosia, Volunteer SnS Artist
The Short Version: Subgrubs and Snazzards (SnS) 6th edition is an independent Tabletop Roleplaying Game (TTRPG) set in the universe of the webcomic Homestuck and videogame Hiveswap. Specifically, SnS is designed to focus on Hiveswap's main setting: the planet Alternia and the Alternian Empire. In Subgrubs and Snazzards you play as a Troll, a grey skinned alien with candy corn horns living in a Sci-Fi fascist empire with a biological caste structure based on their different blood colours. SnS was made for @serverstuck, an Alternian Slice-Of-Life roleplay server that also serves as the home base for SnS development and its uses both for the server's west marches-style play and campaigns at home.
Want to check it out just based off that description already? By all means! >>Click Here<< for the 6th edition game manual in the form of a live document.
The Long Version: You're... going to want to sit down for this.
A PROJECT 8+ YEARS IN THE MAKING
Serverstuck was made in 2018, and the desire for a TTRPG followed close behind. The earliest "editions" of this TTRPG were rough drafts of basic systems and hacks of popular existing games, but it was snowballing rapidly into a thing entirely its own. In 2020, the combined hacks and innovations of Serverstuck were coalesced into Subgrubs and Snazzards, 4th Edition, a game that set itself apart from others by focusing exclusively on Alternia with a no-sburb aproach more similar to Hiveswap. SnS has only continued to grow since then, with two complete editions released and countless overhauls and updates between them.
Currently, overhauls on SnS6e are on pause for a very special reason: the development team is worrking on Subgrubs and Snazzards, 7th Edition, which will act as the culmination of several years' work. Some details are available on Serverstuck, and others will be released her over time (but more on that another day).
A CUSTOM TTRPG SYSTEM
Taking inspiration from everything on a scale of Pathfinder to Monster of The Week, Subgrubs and Snazzards has developed a unique TTRPG system. Use 8 stats and a set of 8-Sided dice (thanks, Vriska!) to engage with the world, use your moves, and explore all the canon, fanon, and SnS-original options that the game has to offer. Try out the VALUE POINTS inventory system to fill your SYLLADEX with junk that might be useful. Use UNIVERSAL MOVES to do things like SWASHBUCKLE in your foes' faces, get creative with a bit of PROBLEM SLEUTHING, and channel your destiny in a cosmic FRAYMOTIF. Battle against monsters while using ABSTRATA UPGRADES that let you trade raw damage for using abilities like EMOTIONS or STATUS EFFECTS. Build out your character with COUNTLESS MOVES custom fitted to you!
But wait, what moves can you even take?
DOZENS OF CHARACTER OPTIONS
Over a THOUSAND moves spread out across all sorts of options that let you build a completely unique alien experience, including:
CHARACTER ARCHETYPES designed to reflect the lives and experiences of the planet Alternia, coming from a mix of Homestuck/Hiveswap canon and unique SnS worldbuilding, including mandatory caste-focused playbooks called TREES (with canon classics like LEGISLACERATOR teals and MASTERMIND ceruleans as well as homemade favorites like NETWORK golds and PALADIN indigos, alongside a playable setting-specific lime and fankid castes) and optional add-ons called TEMPLATES that cover everything from seafaring RAPSCALLIONEERS and unlicensed DOCTERRORS to shambling-corpse SHADOWDROPPERS and star-channeling ASTROSORCERERS.
A massive selection of moves representing the key components of your CLASSPECT, with mechanics to represent what your Class, Aspect, and Lunar Sway say about you and how your destiny shapes the way you interact with the world.
Countless extra options options to represent special cases, such as common MUTATIONS in the troll species like wings or mutant eyes, the vast selection of ADULT JOBS that graduation has to offer from corpse-shoveling rusts to planet-ruling violets, and even mechanical boons you get from being with your QUADRANT mates and growing your relationship over time.
A ever-growing list of PERFECTLY GENERIC MOVES to cover edge cases from being an empire stan to having a secret identity.
COUNTLESS OPTIONS TO FLESH OUT ALTERNIA
While the character options are robust and extremely fleshed out, they'd be nothing without something to use them against. In Subgrubs and Snazzards you can fight against the countless MONSTERS that Alternia has to offer, from LUSII like the lvl 2 PARASOCIAPUS that steals your custodian to the mighty lvl 4 SNAZZARD that enacts divine justice as it sees fit. If the fauna of Alternia isn't your cup of tea, try boiling a few leaves off its native PLANTS like the lvl 1 SPEARSLAUGHTER PLANT that snare unsuspecting adventurers in their vines, or struggle against your own mind as the lvl 3 MEMORIVORA PETALS slowly saps away all your experiences and abilities. Struggle against the united Imperial forces as NPCS like the lvl 2 BUSTIN' LAUGHSASSIN and ORPHANER LUSUS-RUNNER team up with ROBOTS from the prowling lvl 1 H3M0H0UND to the titanic lvl 4 IMPERIAL SHOCKDRONE. When the natural and unnatural isnt enough, ENTITIES together make up the supernatural- like the lvl 2 AMBIENT GRIMDARKS that wander the world after making a bad deal with the horrorterrors, or like the lvl 4 CELESTIAL GRUB that are insectoid angels summonable to those of cloistered jade faith.
If monster battles by themselves aren't your thing, a whole host of systems describe the nature of the world around you, like HABITATS that describe anything from mountains and oceans to jungles and wastelands. HAZARDS describe what happen when the world around you fights back, and those can be something as small as a RAINSTORM or TOXIC GAS leak to as major as DIMMING STARS in the wake of the supernatural to DAYLIGHT breaking out and burning indiscriminately. Rounding out the mechanics of Alternia are AFFLICTIONS that can cause issues for your characters over time, be it less intense like with DROWNING and THE SNIFFLES, or more severe like with a case of HAUNTING or CARCINIZATION.
INTEGRATED SERVER MECHANICS AND FEATURES
While Subgrubs and Snazzards is developed as a TTRPG that can be used stand-alone with little modification (which has been done before, including on podcast Dice Will Roll), it has been uniquely integrated into Serverstuck and vis versa. Because of this, there's dozens of Serverstuck-Exclusive TTRPG features, including:
A thriving Player-Vs-Player economy
Server support for single encounters against monsters as well as one-shot length Adventures In Alternia (or AiAs) that equate to server levels
Semi-Regular server events with unique event mechanics ranging from minigames and prize items to raidbosses.
Dedicated channels for planning, developing, and creating new builds and ideas for both players and game masters.
On-Site access to the development team for SnS support, both on server and off.
An ever-growing list of mechanics that are introduced first to the server before making their way to the game proper.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Subgrubs and Snazzards is a unique ttrpg experience set in the planet of Alternia that blends longstanding canon, community fanon, and dev team original concepts together to a unique and in-depth roleplay experience. There are countless options for both players and game-masters to use, all designed with love of the original canon and the new stories being told every day. Whether its in Serverstuck's westmarches style play or a campaign all of your own, SnS hopes to provide an enjoyable and replayable game that lets YOU tell the stories you want to about a relatively small part of an old webcomic.
