Quickstart Rules

Disadvantages You should select two disadvantages from the list below. These will need to get fleshed out some, and we can discuss the mechanical impact of them as you consider them. Bad Reputation : For some reason, you have attracted the disapproval/ animosity of the public. Broken : Some experie...

Hi folks!

I've got the forum set up, and the first couple of steps of the character creation process up.

If others are interested in joining, they are certainly welcome!

Dark Secrets Each character has a dark secret. Dark Secrets are things from the character's past which will haunt them in the game. For us, these will not be things the characters are aware of, and we will leave the details sketchy, to be developed (or not) in play. They are *suppressed* memories, o...

Hi all! For this scenario, you will all be prison guard captains. The game takes place in 1920, in NYC, and will mostly be focused on life in the prison. To start, you should select your Attributes, your "stats". Each of them is associated with a different "move" you can do. Firs...

Let's talk.

Thanks!

Hi!

Could you please set up a new game forum for me?

Game: The Forgotten
System: Kult: Divinity Lost

I would also like a private gm folder, please.

Thank you!

To start, we'll be playing "sleepers", who are guard captains in a prison. Instead of an archetype, you'll just select a few character features, build some relationships, and get rolling. I'll try to make it interesting enough that it could be "the game", but it's intended to be ...

Alright, to answer Urson's question a wee bit more explicitly, in terms of where I was intending to go... The characters in this game are, by construction, somewhat more morally compromised than in a heroic fantasy story. They have darkness in their pasts, and flaws that will play a role in their st...

Hi Stirling, If you reread the last few posts, you'll see discussion of "instincts". If a character has an instinct, it let's them do something without advancing the grind. If a character has an instinct to always be scavenging, they can scavenge whenever they want without advancing the gr...

Oh, yeah... no prob.

The setting *does* include things like "hell" (inferno) where people are tortured/tormented by demonic beings, etc, but it doesn't need to be made super graphic, or be done by PCs...

Huh... ok. I guess I thought I was agreeing with your request, but... hope to play with you in something else, some time. Cheers.

Alright, welcome aboard

We can have a conversation about the types of horror you want/enjoy, and places we don't want to go, absolutely.

Well, the starting situation will be that you are prison guard captains. If you would like to be very bookish, that's fine...

Sure can :) As I mentioned, above, we'd be playing slightly simpler characters than the archetypes in the quickstart... regular people, rather than partially awakened. One issue with this is that you would pick "any" of the dark secrets and disadvantages, rather than from curated lists by ...

For the curious, here is a link to the quickstart, alpha version of the rules (on bgg, so I think this is legit...?)

The basic game mechanic is roll 2d10+stat. 15+ is a success, 10+ is success with complications, 9- is " your attempt has unintended repercussions". These starting characters would have a few stats (arranged by the player), a "dark secret" (chosen from a list, but forgotten as of ...

I'd like to try to give the recent reboot of the classic horror game a try if there are interested players. The idea of the game is that the world, as we know it, is a lie, designed to keep us docile and asleep, but that world is crumbling, revealing horrors to those awake enough to see them. Sort o...

I'm a little confused about the plan, at the moment. Aren't we going to camp? I see a bunch of different ways to move the grind forward being attempted?
