Gobblin'
A downloadable game
"The humans are gone! The goblins are here!
Now let's hurry up and take all their gear!"
Everyone knows about goblins. They’re violent and stupid little green guys with just enough brain cells to know what they’re doing and black enough hearts not to care. Everyone grew to hate them so much that every elf, wizard and king combined their magics to banish every goblin to another time and realm to be rid of them forever. The confused goblins landed in a post-apocalyptic world full of wandering mutants, abandoned buildings, and leftover malfunctioning technology. Considering that goblins are immune to radiation, love explosions, and eat literal garbage, they couldn't be happier!
Gobblin' is a tabletop RPG about being chaotic little monsters in a world long abandoned by humanity. Goblins may be tough to kill but they're quick to panic and they always find a way to make things worse. They've settled into the strangely modern place they call Goblin House (because goblins are anything but creative), creating strange settlements and cultures without anyone around to tell the little dopes what to do. Whether you're dealing with the strange demands of the local chief, preparing for an invasion from goblin raiders, or just scavenging the nearby junkyard for snacks, there's no shortage of trouble to get into and ancient hi-tech dangers waiting when you get there.
Gobblin' runs on an original d12 system (that weird-looking, unpopular one that's the goblin of dice) built to be quick and easy while leaving some interesting bonuses and motivations to get strange and silly. As a few highlights:
-Pick from 13 different Specialties for a class. From the big dumb Brute to the pushy Boss, the gun-worshiping Shootomancer to the headbutt-obsessed Headroc, each comes with special Perks that give advantages while granting weaknesses. Brutes are great at smashing, but they can only offer a good idea after offering a bad idea first.
-6 silly, simple stats to base your rolls on: Bash, Brave, Run, Know, Laugh and Jerk.
-Create a light in the dark as your flailing little guys build a life in this world of beat-up cars, malfunctioning guns and skeletons that give you stuff that explodes when you poke it.
-Scavenging charts to determine what you find around the wasteland, from dirt to hi-tech gadgets to "trouble."
-Vague armor and weapon types allowing all sorts of goofy-looking loadouts. Characters get a little crazy when a sword, a golf club, or a bowling pin could be treated as the same weapon.
-Freaky monsters and goblin NPCs. Meet Captain Bigbones, the world's only goblin pirate, or fend off mutated animals and science experiments gone mad (or rules to build your own!).
Includes optional character sheets and all 118 pages of the book's PDF designed to teach you all the rules, offer plenty of ideas, and make you laugh along the way.
