[Wait-listing] Dungeon Goons: the Land of Mag

Hi.

As requested below:
• I am looking for 2–4 players.
• Who can post about daily during the week, occasionally less often. (Looking for QUANTITY of posts more than quality.)
• In a game that will go as long as we're interested. (My record for play by post is about 2 years on rpg.net forums. Actually using the same rules I'm proposing here.)
• I don't like graphic violence or sex. Allusions to pretty much anything could happen.

There is a very simple set of roleplaying rules called Dungeon Goons. It is barely more complicated than Tunnel Goons, from which it derives. Most of the added complexity is in providing starting coinage and a list of equipment that can be purchased with that coinage. The rest is a one-page magic system. I'm going to add some to it here: in assigning points among Brute, Skulker, or Erudite stats, roll one die 3x and look at the following tables:

1 Brave (+1 Brute)
2 Uncanny (+1 Erudite)
3 Clever (+1 Skulker)
4 Kind (+1 Erudite)
5 Engaging (+1 Skulker)
6 Tough (+1 Brute)



There is a fairly complicated world called the Land of Mag. 60 pages would be a lot to read, but the summary on the itch.io page will give you a good idea of what it's like.

I'm interested in running a game that starts in the basement of an abandoned palace in the old capital city of Magog, and may go anywhere from there.

Interested, but would like to know the usual game info stuff...posting requirements, number of players, game duration, lines/veils, etc.

I was actually looking at Tunnel Goons just the other day....

Updated first post. And here is a map to make sense of the first post update:

You would seem to have an "uncanny enlightened warrior" → a Yogogan Spearmaster.

"w Yogog: the Steel City trades in fine steel goods and ingots of poor iron; the King's intent is to discredit those who try to imitate his citizens' works. The Smelters and Forgers are an extremely powerful guild, of which the King is an honored member. In addition to human soldiers, fey and minotaurs guard the low and thoroughly-cursed walls." ← there's more if you'd like me to expound.

Yeah, game details work for me. 👍

So every character will be a Reaver?

Interesting question, bc that's the default for the setting I wrote. But I think it might be more fun to use the Dungeon Goons rule that you need +2 Erudite or better to cast spells.

Sounds interresting.

Throwing my name in.

A tough charlatan ...

↑ if you click on that character sheet, it should open in Google Docs and let you make a copy to edit. Then you can use the same

format that I did to make a character sheet that will display here.

Some brutal bones please

Kind Minotaur Champion as I read it. Mmm muscle magic.

Ok all, as you can see at top of thread I have opened a game for this and I now will invite each of you …

This sounds like fun,,,,

An "engaging Celebrant of Mag"

I promise in the GAME thread, once you've made your character sheets, I will post a brief intro for each of your characters in the setting context.

Know for now, in case you haven't looked at the itch.io page, that Mag was a four-armed living god, somewhat resembling the trolls who still roam the land. As a Celebrant of Mag, you're responsible for enacting ceremonies to honor the vanished god. You also are a "reaver" who can hear Mag's voice whispering spells to you. I'll randomly roll as many spells as you want to hear, but each one counts against your inventory score (starting score is 8).

Here is an Altar of Mag:

Ok I'm in to be a reaver. Seems like a good follow up to being a breaker.

And already have a name: "Brutey mc Bruterson mc Boatface." jk

a Brave and savage Coldlands Berserker. FUN!

thats what i get for using my lucky dice.

THAT IS ALL for active players, I will continue to accept wait list in case someone drops out or never starts.
