Disposable:Lunch Hour Heroes/Mechanics
From Drinking and Dragons
The game system will be Fate Accelerated (FAE) as modified here. The full rules are available at http://fate-srd.com/ or at DriveThruRPG as Pay What You Want (including free). In book form FAE is only 40 pages. Reading it all is an evening however if crunched on time read the following:
- Outcomes, Actions, Approaches, the whole page
- Stress and Consequences, read the 30 second version. Bonus if you read the whole page.
Character Creation
The following may change slightly as we determine a setting.
- Aspects—Five of them (High concept, Trouble, plus three more)
- Approaches—ranked according to the usual starting values (+3, +2, +2, +1, +1, +0)
- Stress—this will deviate from the norm. Given the short sessions I'm thinking that we set it to one stress box (worth 2 stress) and only use Mild and Moderate consequences. Stress and Mild consequences will disappear at the end of each session. Moderate consequences will disappear at the end of the following session.
- Stunts—Three stunts each. This Guide to Stunts is the best text to use for how to build them. It is from the Atomic Robo RPG.
