Mud Planet: Ronnies almost-winner now ready for playtest as Sorcerer mini-supp.
Hi there! After some ado, I have chosen to try out my old Ronnies game Mud Planet as a Sorcerer mini-supplement. It’s been almost exactly two years since I entered the game into the contest! Time goes by…
For those of you who did not follow the Ronnies: It was a design contest for 24h-RPGs hosted by Ron Edwards. You were to create an RPG using two of four key words. The key words for November 2005 were: Mud, Dragon, Gun, Soviet. I went for Mud and Dragon. Here, check out the teaser I wrote for the game, two years ago:
Scundea, the Mud Planet, is a foul place.
Treacherous swamps and pools of rotting water stretch far and wide
Under a sick yellowish sun.
The Dragons that roam the overcast skies
Are hideous creatures of terrible might and cruel cunning.
But those few Gifted who dare touch the predator’s mind,
Those chosen champions that dare mount and master the Dragon,
Are bearers of hope to a people abandoned by civilization long ago.
The Lancers, as they are called, must not falter in their discipline and devotion,
For the Dragon’s urges and instincts are of violent power.
Those who fail become beasts themselves,
Savages that dwell in the wild and have forgotten all about virtue and reason.
Yet in the linking of souls, the stirring of the beast inside the man,
Lies great power and terrible temptation to behold.
Can you handle the mind of a Dragon?
And now, Ladies and Gens:
MUD PLANET 2.0

I would love for people to play it, and post about it. Let’s see how well Mud Planet and Sorcerer actually go together. As far as I see it, they are a damn good match.
