SAT-03 Monster Draft (playtest) (FULL)

[johnzo]

WHAT IS MONSTER DRAFT?

• Weird fantasy post-apocalyptic sandbox hexcrawl.
• Amnesiac monster soldiers, abandoned by their mind-controlling overlord, wander scrambled landscapes.
• Sandbox = no play agenda imposed by game except that you start hungry.

HOW DO YOU PLAY?

• Character powers and abilities are drafted from a small but colorful set of cards.
• Map and encounters are designed in play using a novel card oracle. Questionable outcomes are governed by draws from the same oracle.
• We all play monsters, we all GM. Each region on the map has its own GM.

WHY PLAY MONSTER DRAFT?

• Evocative oracles and detailed procedures are designed to teach GMly improvisation and judging skills.
• Built for maximum participation: everyone has a role in every scene. Trying to break away from RPG-as-series-of-one-on-one interactions.
• Card-driven character creation and programmed scenario startup lead to very fast game startup times; ideal for convention or one-shot play.

This is a playtest, but the play materials have been under development for quite awhile and are very polished.
