[Moon Raid] [ENG] Moon Raid, a systemless (for now) RPG setting with a heroic modern horror-fantasy shōnen tone

 




TLDR: MoonRaid, an RPG system with a heroic modern horror-fantasy shōnen tone (link to the updated page)

  

Recently, in these thread in the rpg.net forum, I posted a random of the cuff setting idea that I came up with (well..that’s the thread title, after all!). But, once I hit the ‘Post reply’ button, I thought ‘you know, maybe I could expand it a little’…and sure I did it! In an act of recklessness, I decided to write it in English. Not ‘writing it Spanish and then translating it to English’, but in English from the very beginning. And…well, here is the result. For now, this is a systemless setting, that could be used with RPGs with heroic characters of the ‘cool powers’ variety…but, maybe (and that’s a big maybe) it won’t be systemless forever: in another act of recklessness, I’ve begun writing a system for it…or, to be precise, translating the parts of one of my homebrewed games to this setting. Truth be told, when I wrote the setting, I already have that plan in mind, so I could reuse plenty of the material (sometimes with a little reskinning, some times without needing even that!). But this is going to take quite a while, I'm afraid.

So there it is. I would probably revise it every now and then, because sure there are typos here and there…and let’s not talk about the grammar (oh, gosh, the prepositions, phrasal verbs and verb combinations are really killing me!). Hope you enjoy it!

UPDATE (2021/06/24): In fact, I'm still hoping that you enjoy  the setting, but the provious paragraph was oh-so-outdated now. And that's because the setting is no system-less anymore! Here, you'll find the recent version all documents related to Moon Raid.

 

 

 

Y ahora, la versión (resumida) en español: esta es una ambientación que, por ahora, carece de sistema…aunque estoy adaptando el sistema de ‘Una ciudad moderna en un mundo mágico’ para incorporárselo a continuación. Comencé a escribir el documento en inglés, pensado ‘traducirlo al español después va a ser fácil, caramba’…pero me parece a mí que no me va a resultar tan fácil como esperaba. ¡Creo que me he pasado un poco con las frases hechas y memes en inglés!
