Crowd Sourced Games and Rules
This blog will post small, sometimes incomplete rulesets or feature systems. Everyone should feel free to add their own rules to these games as we build up systems. I seek to occasionally highlight some particularly interesting threads for easy retrieval if anyone is crazy enough to actually want to play these things
LùnYú 論娛 - The Gaming Analects
Bocius said: To gather for a game and slay goblins, is this not a joy? Is it not wonderful when schedules align? If no one shows for game night and I prep anyway, am I not a good GM?
The Grognard said: Each day I roll a retainer, to see his character. His body, his mind, his spirit. A die for each hand, is this not a man?
Bocius said: Without purpose, what good is a man to an adventure? You must examine his class, and know his skills in each attribute. You should appoint his training according to narrative.
The Grognard asked The Storygamer: When your character goes into town, does she appoint his retainers to the many tasks of seeking rumors of treasure? Do you not read the monster statlines?
The Storygamer said: My character brings her retainers with, she asks how is the shopkeep. I know only what the fishermen tell her of the orcs and the medusae.
Bocius said: When your character is alive, he plays according to your will and your retainers to your character's will. When your character is dead, if for three encounters a retainer dealt according to his class, then he can be called a real character.
Lasers and feelings and scrolls and swords and lions and bears and....
Adding all the Lasers and Feelings hacks together into one, massive game.
So you're a crew on a spaceship, but you're also adventurers with swords and magic fighting goblins and orcs. while navigating a dystopia. And you're also stoners on a transport. In the car post-apocolypse. With zombies. Also you're a psychic deer.
Creatio Ex Gravis
We're listing rituals to make Undead
To Force a Shadow
Find a blackhearted man, and bind him with black lace. Remove his tongue, and fill his mouth with a blood candle, having braided the wick with a lock of his hair. With his candle lit and while he draws breath, seal him in a casket filled with graveyard soil. Bury him. When the moon expires, a shadow is sure to form.

Don't use any actual rule system. Just use Eve the chatbot to know what rules are correct
When players take damage, they must use Cleverbot for the next N rounds
Ye Olde Mall Encounters
Ok so for all your needs of generating encounters when your group inevitably goes here: (You know as well as I do that you're just itching for the chance)
Roll a D-However many to encounter one of:
A goblin with a skateboard (He's also an archmage)
Three teenagers
A mermaid barista riding on a witch's back, looking for her lost tamper
A gang of four geese, one each wearing: a peacock cape, an obsidian helmet, a pair of pantaloons, and a knife necklace
Two nyads and three shadows, who are friends but don't like that you came around and are harshing their vibe
A crow caped apothecary carrying his workshop on his back
A water fountain with a door in the statue. The door leads to the other fountain on the other side of the mall
Mimic Store: if you enter it, the cage shuts behind you. You must find the hidden staff exit.
Seventeen blind were rats
Yankee Candle Dragon
As always, feel free to add on
Swords!
New system! The dSword system.
How to play:
Buy a sword (battle ready is better)
Play any game you'd like
Whenever you make a skill check, use your sword to threaten the GM
Have fun :)
This system is an alternative method of conflict resolution which is compatible with all roleplaying systems. Try it out!
Actual Stupid Pointless Bullshit by Game System
D&D: There's a purely good aligned spell that only good people can use. It causes an extremely contagious disease that makes people so horny they straight up die.
World of Darkness: Scientists radiate an aura of pure boringness so strong it kills pixies and that's why you don't see pixies anymore.
Chronicles of Darkness: "Actually, the psychic abuse monsters spawned from our nightmares are doing us a favour by beaming our worst fears directly into our brains until we die."
Call of Cthulhu: Fetishes are on the Insanity Table that you randomly roll on when you lose sanity so there's a chance you see Cthulhu and immediately develop a foot fetish so intense you have to be hospitalised.
Powered By The Apocalypse: Mechanically, everyone is pansexual. Everyone has to be pansexual. If you don't want to be pansexual, tough! We're married and you're in love.
Pathfinder: Inexplicable archfiend who specifically embodies the act of luring children into dark alleyways with candy to kidnap them.
Mutants and Mastermind: "So, we need enemies for a silver age superhero comic book game. What we got?" "Well, I've statted up a super-scientist gorilla, and an evil clown, and the vengeful souls of everyone killed in the very real Hiroshima Bombings. How's that?" "Yeah, that all seems tonally consistent."
Warhammer 40k: Hoo boy, how much time you got?
Warhammer: I don't think I can top vaporizing the fucking setting and killing everyone in the world for copyright reasons.
New Game: All of this is true. Flip a coin if you want to do anything about it.
Carve and Craft
A simple forage system for Dungeons and Dragons (and similar systems)
A monster may yield 1d4 "Carve" parts
Carve parts are denoted by the Monster Family and one of the following forms:
Blood
Black Bile
Phlegm
Green Bile
Essence
A Carve part will also have a Rank which is equal to the CR of the monster divided by Five (rounded to the nearest whole number).
Items whose recipes are known may be crafted by combining the requisite parts.
Example Carves:
Dragon Blood
Giant Black Bile
Demon Essence
Goblin Essence
Undead Phlegm
Example Craft Recipes:
Longsword
Goblin Phlegm I x3
Dragon Blood I x2
Beast Essence I x5
Undead Essence I x1
Alchemist Fire
Ooze Blood I x3
Elemental Black Bile II x1
Color Theory
You know what? FUCK NUMBERS! This game uses COLORS
You have three stats:
Style
Taste
Talent
Each stat is assigned a color from ROYGBIV. Each color may only be used once (I see you, trying to make every stat red). And... that's it. That's your character. You play some sort of hipster art student or something. Probably wears a beanie and goes to indie art shows in the third ward.
Playing
The Curator (game master) will present a challenge for you. That challenge will have an associated color that they don't tell you. The vibes of the color and the vibes of the challenge will match (maybe read up on color theory and put some red in your children's hospital first). Based on those vibes you'll select a stat to use and describe how you use that stat to overcome the challenge. Then, the curator combines the color of your stat and the color of the challenge on the color wheel. The resulting color should describe the vibe of the outcome.
If your stat was the opposing color to the challenge, then you get a bad outcome and suffer a setback of some sort (idk, maybe your rent increases).
GO SLAP EACH OTHER WITH PAINT AND VIBES
Fuck it, we're making Warhammer 40k an RPG.
Your models can't move unless they've undergone a deep moment of character growth.
Each attack requires the revelation of backstory that caused some sort of trauma leading to this violent lashing out.
The Road to Eeby Deeby
You and your party are on a journey to Eeby Deeby. You didn't ask for this, you didn't choose this. But here you are. And it's treated like any other journey. It's weird down here, and so any time you try to do something, the GM (Grungus Mate) will decide to themselves if what you're doing is Eeby or if it's Deeby. The GM will then ask you to declare if you Eebied your action, or if you Deebied your action. If your answer agrees with the GM's, you succeed. If you're wrong, then your action fails and you gain one point of Brazil. If your brazil score is ever 10x greater than your character's level, then your character is sent to Brazil and the rest of the party will have to take a trip through super hell to rescue you so you can keep making your way back to eeby deeby
Girl Game
Girls just want to have a coup. Play a friend(ish) group of your favorite feminine archetypes as you find a way to stage a coup to overthrow the mayor (he knows what he did).
Favorite kinds of girls!
You can be any kind of girl you want (as long as it's on the list). The kind of girl you are will make certain tasks so absolutely easy that you can just... do it. Where other girls might struggle and have to make a skill roll (ugh), you're not like other girls. Anything you do that fits your stereotype will just work. And actually work, not todd howard work.

The Feminine Urge to have stats!
Everyone knows that stats are a spectrum. So every character gets three spectra on which to place themselves! Every character gives themselves a score from 1 to 10 on each spectrum, a score that they will try to roll over or under in various scenarios throughout the game
The Gaslight/Emptah spectrum
This spectrum denotes your emotional abilities. A low score indicates that you're good at gaslighting, while a high score means you're more of an empath. Roll over your score to gaslight, and roll under your score to do some empath shit
The Gatekeep/Enlighten Spectrum
This spectrum denotes your relational abilities. A low score indicates that you're good at gatekeeping, while a high score means you love to enlighten others. Roll over your score to gatekeep, and roll under your score to enlighten that bitch.
The Girlboss/Enable Spectrum
This spectrum denotes your attitude towards action. A low score indicates that you're a girlbossing bitch, while a high score means you're an enabler. Roll over your score to girlboss, and roll under your score to be an enabler.
When you try to do something which has a chance to fail, your GM will ask you to roll 1d10 against some skill (gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss, empath, enlighten, or enable). If your roll succeeds then you accomplish what you were trying to do (you go, girl). If your roll fails however, then not only do you not get what you wanted, but the situation gets worse somehow (if you want to be really cool and sexy then you could suggest a way for it to get worse to the GM). Rolling exactly on your score will always succeed.
Criticals When making a roll, you can (and will, eventually) roll on one of the extreme ends of your spectrum. When you're trying to roll high (G-skills) then you will critically succeed on a 10, and critically fail on a 1. When you're trying to roll low (E-skills) then you will critically succeed on a 1, and critically fail on a 10.
A Little Something Special
In addition to your archetype and your skills, every character can instantly succeed on a G-skill check (gaslight, gatekeep, and girlboss) by deciding to Be Toxic. If you Be Toxic to pass a check, then you will get -1 karma, and any relationship related to the check takes a -1.
Karma's a bitch
When you critically fail, if you have negative karma then the situation gets remarkably worse. Karma will go one step towards 0 (perfect balance 😌). But, uhh, don't rest too long on the euphoria of cosmic bliss. Your situation just went to shit.
Relationships?
All relationships start at a neutral value of 10. When someone likes you more, their relationship score will be higher. If they like you less, that relationship score will be lower. The relationship score doesn't necessarily relate to how close someone is. You can be very close to someone and still absolutely despise them. Use relationship scores as a roleplay aid.
Add on to this!
If you have ideas for how to improve or expand on this game, share them for the world to see. Let's make this quilt together.
