Basic Solo Roleplaying SystemThis rules supplement is aimed at any and all BRP Basic Roleplaying games, including Call of Cthulhu and Runequest, and anything else that is independently produced using the SRD.The book contains a d100 oracle, a selection of muses or spark tables, advice on improv gaming and solo playing adventure/mystery games.

When I first published 3Deep in 2016, I intended to release the setting-neutral rules and follow it up quickly with splatbooks that tweaked the game to fit each setting and genre.I produced two books, one of which I wrote myself, and one was an adaption of No GM's Sky by Todd Zircher. Ironically, supers was supposed to be the first book. My roleplaying education started with D&D B/X and then moved through Champions, Traveller, Runequest, and Rolemaster, and the real eye-opener was when we started roleplaying Steve Jackson's Car Wars. That told me that any game that had a character could be roleplayed. All you needed were some rules for conflict resolution. If you are familiar with 3Deep, you may have noticed a healthy dose of the original Car Wars in those rules as well as some Champions and Traveller. Our early influences stay with us, or mine did.This book takes the core of 3Deep and introduces rule tweaks and suggestions to bend it to the Supers genre.

No Rabble RouserEZD6 Compatible Solo ToolsEZD6 is a simple d6 driven game with a very strong OSR feel, without having all the D&D baggage.The system is heavily skewed towards player success. Typically a 1 is an automotive fail, 2 is a failure (but you can spend meta currency to boost it, 3-5 is a success and 6 is an exploding roll and critical success.These solo rules use that same 1, 2, 3-5, and 6 spread for its oracle, and more of the familiar systems within EZD6 to run the solo tools.Because the game hovers between being a rules-light d6 game and a D&D-esque OSR game it has many different possibilities for the feel or play style. For that reason, I have introduced different Muses, four in total, so the player can find the one(s) that gel the best with the way you want to play the game.

These solo rules were requested by one of my patreons.FASERIP is a retro-clone of the Marvel Super Heroes game from the 1980s.

You can find the free rules here. https: //www.drivethrurpg.com/product/177913/Faserip?affiliate_id=730903These rules require just the booklet, the free rules above, and d100 to play.These rules are also compatible with FASERIPopedia by WHITEFRANK.FASERIPopedia is a trademark of Jonathan Nolan, all rights reserved 2023 used with permission.

Grim Sci-fi36 d66 TablesThese tables are intended to replace or supplement the action/subject tables within Mythic GME, or to be used as add-on additional oracles/muses for any d6-based dark sci-fi game, such as Death in Space, Hostile, Bladerunner, and Alien.The tables are cross-referenced and they are both spread out through the book and condensed into a few pages for easy reference.

Cut Up SoloDr. Jekyll & Mr. HideCut Up Solo Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hide takes the classic gothic novel by Robert Louis Stevenson and cuts it into snippets of text typically 4-6 words in length.This cut up book was created in November for a hallowe'en game but never releasedThis book contains instructions on cut up play, 2,000 snippets of text arranged in two d1000 (3d10) tables. You will also get a spreadsheet containing all the snippets in excel and ods formats.Cut Up Solo is a technique that uses random snippets of text that you pick and fit together, creating what the GM says to you. You can then respond to that, and then the cycle repeats. Cut up play is very different from more traditional oracle-driven solo play. If you struggle with interpreting word pairs or prompts, cut up could be for you.

Solo NoirSolo Roleplaying Secrets & LiesI am a huge fan of games that I can jump straight into without having to digest 500 pages of rules and options before making a 1st level character. Secrets & Lies by Daniel Bayn is just 33 pages, and PWYW. The book gives you three different settings, but it is the classic noir detective that spoke to me.The standout design feature is how Secrets & Lies is built on presumed success. Many games have characters that will frequently fail at even the most central of tasks. Thieves that cannot reliably pick locks and fighters that miss as often they hit with their swords. Secrets & Lies is not like that. You describe what you do, and if success is important you make down a 'hit' against your vitals and carry on. Then when you reach a crucial moment, that is when you go to the dice and all those hits can come back to bite you.This mechanic means that you can do whatever defines your character, you are competent and capable, but there is always a cost to pay in the end.

The RolemasterBlog is a fan run blog written by GMs and players of probably the best role playing game ever written, not that we are biased! This month brings more monsters in the form of the Aurochs, sprites, and the Kraken. We also have three adventures for you, Raging Bull, The Sprites of Amelie and Titanic. This month sees the first of our regular Shadow World sections and a complete reprint of Brian Hanson's Shadow World Encounter Tables.

3DEEP is a setting neutral roleplaying game built to allow you to game in any genre from Fantasy to SciFi. You will find rules for magic sitting alongside those for car chases. You can overcome aliens, dragons or the undead. Where ever your imagination takes you. About 3Deep 2nd Edition This is the new 2nd Edition. What you get is everything that was in the original core rules plus everything that was in the GM's Resource but now integrated seamlessly and more monsters, more magic and a bigger and better advanced Solo Engine! Fast 3Deep is very fast to play. There should be virtually no stopping for rules look ups. We try to keep everything you need on the character sheet. Simple We have used the same mechanic for almost everything, roll your 2d6, add any stat bonus, add any skill and take away any difficulty factors. If the result is 8+ then you succeed. We try and keep as much information on the character sheet as possible so you don't have to constantly refer to the rule book. All of Time and Space All weapons and armour are described in terms of their relative weights, materials and design. Where and when they are made doesn't really matter. A rapier is a light weapon so it is going to do 1d6 of damage, a blaster rifle is a bigger beast and does 2d6. A tripod mounted machine gun deals out 3d6. The same principles apply to armours, the idea of light through to heavy. The best high tech armour of course performs a lot better than medieval platemail even if they are both 'heavy'. With 3Deep you can just as easily play a space opera set following a homer-esque odyssey, a teenage scuby gang battling vampires or one of Arthur's knights searching for Morgana. The rules can handle all of these settings with equal easy. Episodic Episodic role play implies some kind of regular reset between adventures or sets of adventures. Wounds heal in hours and days, not weeks and months. 3Deep puts little emphasis on equipment lists. You rarely see characters in TV series carting huge backpacks full of equipment around with them. The plot tends to provide what is required whether it is a gadget from the bat cave or a closet full of crossbows and wooden stakes. 3Deep is also played in 'scenes' so it is perfectly acceptable to fast forward from one location to the next without having to role play 60 days at sea or taking the metro across town. If it adds nothing to the story then those scenes end up on the cutting room floor. Story Arc Roleplaying Adventures or episodes do not have to be totally discrete, there should be a thread that runs through them, the dastardly villains plot to take over the world or Morgana's attempts to subvert the kingdom of Camelot. Every character starts with a number of motivations as to why they are who they are and these get woven into the game. Over time they may resolve some or all of these story arcs and at the same time gain new ones. Play with a GM and Friends or Play Solo Nearly all role playing games are designed to be played with one person and the Game Master [GM] who creates the game world, creates the story hooks and plays all the other characters in the world. The other players control one character each and the game evolves through the interaction of the characters interacting with this imaginary world, the players describing their actions and saying what their character says and the GM describing the consequences of those actions and so the story moves along. 3Deep has another option built in. Solo play uses the dice to shape the story in ways you would never have have thought of. It can turn a fun game into a powerful creative writing tool, if you have ever wanted to ever write your own novella where even you do not know what will happen in the end!

Cut Up SoloAsgardian MythThis book takes the text from The Children Of Odin The Book Of Northern Myths by Padraic Colum and cuts it into snippets of 3-5 words.

You can then respond to that, and then the cycle repeats.

If you struggle with how to interpret word pairs or prompts, cut up could be for you.The novel contains over 65,000 words of text, chopped into snippets of 4 or 5 words.

Single Agent MissionsCompatible with White LiesThis is a solo rules supplement for White Lies by DwD Studios. The core game rules are derived from the OSR, but this game is so steeped in spies, espionage, James Bond etc that beyond the character creation is functionally a different game.My solo rules have been designed alongside the core rules, but you will need a regular pack of playing cards, in addition to your polyhedral dice.

Realms of SoloSolo Roleplaying Realms of PerilRealms of Peril by Spellsword is an interesting mix of Powered by the Apocalypse and d20. You get all the PbtA features you know and expect, player-facing rolls and moves for everything, but all scaled up to use a d20.The other cool thing about the core game is the wealth of random tables in the Game Master's Reference. There is nothing that makes solo play easier than having random tables for everything that is perfectly in tune with the game's feel, genre, and setting.Against this background the solo rules in this booklet use a d20 oracle based on the basic move, and d20 oracles for when you need something that is not covered by the GM Reference.On top of that you get my normal advice on improvisational play, soloing, and some of my hints and tips that have grown out of my experience.

The RolemasterBlog is a fan run blog written by GMs and players of probably the best roleplaying game ever written, not that we are biased! About the only thing that Rolemaster does not have is a community of small independent adventure writers. People who write and publish their own adventures for the rest of the Rolemaster fans to play and enjoy. The reason for that is that the monsters that you need to create those adventures are protected by copyright and without monsters it is nigh on impossible to create adventures for most campaigns. In this issue we have gone back to Rolemaster's roots and converted the original D&D monsters, this time from 5e, back to Rolemaster so anyone can use them. This first collection introduces 15 races from Ogres to Owlbears and Kobolds to two headed Ettins. You can use these monsters to surprise your players in a regular game or as something new and exciting for a new campaign.

Brian wrote recently that he had published nearly 200 documents for Shadow World on the Rolemaster Blog and the Rolemaster Forums. What I want to achieve here is bring these together into the first printed edition of Brian's Alternative Spell Law or BASiL as it has become known. It is my understanding that BASiL is a working document in that it is still evolving and new spell lists are being introduced all the time. What I will publish here will be the aggregated documents that Brian shared on the blog and the supporting articles.

The original version of this rule booklet was sold by Bandit Camp briefly, before they withdrew it from sale.This version is updated and has 5 additional pages.The current Wicked Ones rules have a chapter on solo rules, but I found them to be excessively table-heavy, and kept me tied to the rulebook. My approach is more rules-light, and only use a pair of tables that can be easily printed off from the PDF.This booklet can be used as a replacement for the corer rules solo chapter, or to augment it.

Masked HeroSolo Rules Supplement for MASKSThese rules have been created to help play MASKS [Conway MASKS New Generation] solo. The solo game mechanics are set to look and feel like a standard Move as much as possible.I also pick out and use character Labels as part of the imagination prompts for answering questions.As the game mechanics for MASKS are so simple, much of this book is based around advice to support solo playing the game, rather than masses of tables or extra rules.
