Day 11 Main Prompt: RPG with well supported one-shots

One Shot RPG (OSRPG) is not only well supported with a ton of adventures in a number of different genres but they are pay what you want! The system is sort of a lighter, improved version of Call of Cthulhu / BRP. You can find them here: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/4266/one-shot-rpg

Day 11 Alternate Prompt: Invasion and my d10 roll is a 8, Present an idea of random encounter.

Now you have done it, you had to enter the hive. You couldn’t wait for reinforcements, heck your comms aren’t getting out due to some sort of interference. But if you don’t find the missing children soon there won’t be anything left to bring back to their parents.

1d4 Giant Ants, every four rounds the combat continues roll for reinforcements, not the friendly kind. Good luck!

That’s all for today, until tomorrow be excellent to each other!

August is #RPGaDay2024 and I am going to posting daily responses to the prompts. You can find more information about #RPGaDAY2024 here: https://www.autocratik.com/2024/07/announcing-rpgaday2024-for-august.html

There are two sets of prompts this year and since I have room to do so on the blog I will answer both. In episode S2E6 of my podcast titled RPGaDAY2024 Panel Discussion I assemble an esteemed panel and we go through the main prompts for the entire month’s so I will try to give different answers here on the blog but may end up repeating myself occasionally.  

On their podcast Mirke the Meek suggested using the alternate prompts to create a setting and that is a great idea so I’m going to steal that. The setting I am going to craft for this month will be a modern, conspiracy style setting. Nominally I think we’ll set it in the 1970’s to avoid the problems cell phones and the internet can cause if player characters have access to them.

Here are the main prompts:

And here are a set of alternative prompts suggested by Skala Wyzwania, look at the day on the left, pick the theme, then roll d10.
