WHAT IS THIS?

A TTRPG like mom used to make, if it got left in a dumpster and auto-fermented. There's a Baron who arbitrates the rules, plays all the NPCs, generally runs the game and such. On the other side, anywhere between 2 and 6 people play an assortment of custom made characters to throw into the meatgrinder. Sixty some-odd pages. Lean and mean. Game first, but we didn't forget the role playing.

TO PLAY YOU NEED:

At least 3 people, a set of dice (but mostly d6s), paper, and pencils. Everything but the people can be substituted by a computer if you're crafty.

Each session tends to last between 2 and 3 hours, which is enough time to play through one whole game play loop (trying to get a lot of money, seeing if you live to tell the tale).

WHERE AM I?

The sun is a bunsen burner and the weather outside ranges from frigid to arctic to kill-on-exposure; usually the latter. The only places that can contain human life are oil taverns: immense interlinked cabins where folks live together and burn oil on a captured Demon to keep warm. Taxes are high. The rules are few, but harshly enforced. You play as an adventurer, one of the living Intravenous Lines of any tavern. Through dimmensional warping, the lowly tavernite adventurer pilfers the new oil nessesary to keep the tavern alight from the Plerorealm.

The Plerorealm is a dimmension that took bad acid. An oil-rich, perpetually-indoor land of monsters and magic that hundreds of thousands of inhuman creatures call home. Fraught with danger and (sometimes worse for the adventurer) reasonable people who don't speak your language, your goal is usually to make enough money not to need to go here anymore.

WHAT AM I BUYING?

A TTRPG called Greed. Keep up. That means:

• 69 pages of fully illustrated prime cut game shit.
• 8 character classes with loads of diversity, from abilities to past misfortunes to starting equipment, built to be fast and fun to cook up.
• 36 unique abilities to gain by drinking angel tears or killing demons or buying them from the store.
• 14 monster templates, able to outfit with abilities and addendums.
• 5 d66 tables throughout the text (the best size of table).
• Novel combat mechanics that fuck you up so bad you'll HAVE to talk it out.
• A 10 page prose/comic short story to give you a tasty morsel of the vibes (available as a demo!)
• Character sheets and player sheets bursting with that bitter, grimy, oily flavor. Both printable and digital (digital: player, character).
• A quick-reference page for tables and rules you'll be referring to often.
• A 26 page module including a pre-made tavern, lots of NPCs, and a big chunk of Plerorealm.
• A bunch of things I'm not going to tell you and you'll just have to find on your own like a big girl (like Psionics, Horses, and poetry).
