Hello Everyone,
I was interested in running a SCP Foundation RP using Risus. The SCP is a Indiana Jones , Warehouse 13, Eureka style repository for wierdness set in the current age that is mostly oblivious to how wierd the world can be. The idea is for it to be mainly a minimal rolling , RP/Exploration game set loosely in the SCP universe followed by occasional bouts of Helter Skelter when everything goes wrong as shapeshifting (but only in the dark) people sized centipedes come to nom your face or other SCP object interactions.
The Characters:
Its really gonna focus arround Class D personal , aka the expendibles. A strong emphasis on slice of zany life in the mad house until finally they ratched up the mad a level and you either die or die terribly. Mortality is not a goal as far as the D class personal go, but I'm going to be doing my best to tempt some not so bright actions, create drama and put some plot in the slice of life.
The Game:
Risus is the anything RPG. You can find it here: http://www222.pair.com/sjohn/risus.htm
Basic characters, I'm not decided on all the sub rules but basically you have stats from one to four. When you try to do something you roll that number of six sided die, add them up and compare to the target number which will be between 5 and 30 as determined by the gm. There's some variant rules but we can cover that later and again for large portions of the game the emphasis will not be on stats so much as navigating and exploring the SCP foundation.
Hope some people are interested out there. As far as Canon goes, the game is attempt to respect the SCPwiki but loosely. Not all the items will be in the game, The emphasis will not be on the 'insert' characters from the descriptions but on your pc's.
