Changing Fortunes RPG
January 10, 2019
On New Year’s Eve, I was on a friend’s livestream and we played this one page RPG call The Witch is Dead. The players play a witch’s familiar and now she is dead. The players have to find the witch hunters eyes and put them in the witch’s corpse to resurrect her. I played a Toad, with a dog, a fox, 2 owls, a magpie, and a rabbit. We had fun.
This gave me an idea to try and make my own. This game doesn’t use dice but cards. It was inspired by an article on how inmates played D&D in prison. It is called Changing Fortunes and it is designed to be an open action-adventure setting. The unique feature of the game is the Fortune stat that is divided into 2 types: good and bad. Good the player can spend on an advantage, but Bad the GM can spend against the player.
