A PRIMER

WHO ARE YOU?


A down-on-your-luck goon looking for fame and fortune. There
are many travelers and hitchhikers that ventures the different
realms and beyond, and you are one of them.

The following qualities are always true about goons.

You are motivated. You take on odd jobs and bizarre


adventures, to have a chance to turn your life around.

You are mundane. You are not trained to handle dangerous


situations beyond the abilities and benefits from your
aspects.

You are mortal. You can die at any moment, and that what
keeps you alert. Or paranoid.

WHERE ARE YOU?


A growing galaxy at the height of diversity, discovery, and
instability. Gods and corporations haggling for dominion,
gateways and portals connecting allies and foes. No one wants a
war, but peace is not a priority.

The following principles are always true about the galaxy.

The galaxy is busy. Almost everyone has their own agenda,


and there is always something affected by every growth or
downfall.

The galaxy is bountiful. There are untapped energies, under-


the-radar locations, underdeveloped resources. And
everyone wants a piece of it.

The galaxy is bizarre. Different levels of civilizations,


sorcery, and technology learning about each other. With
powers mixing and mingling, there are always discoveries
and dangers to look out for.

RULES EXPLANATION

Game Structure: A GM controls and describes the galaxy to


players who then describe how their characters act in the
galaxy.

Action Roll: When an action’s success is uncertain, a player rolls


2d6 and adds 1 point for each relevant aspect and 1 point for
each relevant item. If the total is equal or greater than the
action’s Difficulty Score (DS), action is successful.

Difficulty Scores Guidelines: Easy: 8 - Moderate: 10 - Hard: 12

Dangerous Actions: If an action has a risk of danger, the


difference between the roll and Difficulty Score is the amount of
damage the endangered participant takes. Goons taking damage
reduce that amount to their Disposition. GM characters taking
damage reduces that amount in their DS.

Example: As an action, a Goon skirmishes an enemy with a DS of


10. The player rolls 2d6 and adds 1 from their Hunter aspect, 1
from their chainsaw-sword, and 1 from their military suit. The
total is 12. The difference between 12 and 10 is 2, so the enemy
takes 2 damage. The enemy’s DS is now 8. If the player’s total roll
was 8 then the Goon would have lost 2 Disposition.

Encumbrance: For each item that exceeds your Inventory Score


subtract 1 point from any action rolls. You cannot carry beyond
two times your Inventory score.

Death: When a Goon’s Disposition Points reach zero, they are


physically or psychologically dead. Negotiate with the table how
you fall into your demise.

Advancement: At the end of each session, raise either Disposition


or Inventory Score by 1. And the end of each mission or
adventure, gain a new aspect related to your success or struggle.

Recovery: Spending a good night in a safe spot lets you regain


half of your missing Disposition Points, rounded down. Spending
a good night in a safe spot with good company regains all your
missing Disposition Points.
