People in the 80's loved ninjas. There were magazines, books, and an endless number of ninja movies. Not one was good, but most were kind of fun. There were, of course, Ninja RPGs. The best known is probably Ninjas & Superspies from Palladium Games, but there were others. In 1986, IIE Games Corps (now defunct) … Continue reading Night of the Ninja: A Character Sheet for an extremely dead RPG
At the request of a commenter on my Traveller: 1700 post, I've also made a character sheet for Mercator (scroll down to find it), the free supplement for Classic Traveller that allows you to run adventures in the Roman Empire in the 1st and 2nd AD. It has a set of Traveller careers, rules for … Continue reading Mercator: Ancient Rome, Classic Traveller – Custom Character Sheet
At Travellercon/USA 2021 I got to play in a great session of Traveller: 1700. This is a free setting for Classic Traveller created by Greg Caires, originally published in the Freelance Traveller fanzine. It's available for download over at the Freelance Traveller site. Though designed for Classic Traveller, it's easily compatible with more modern versions, and … Continue reading Traveller: 1700 – A custom character sheet and some recommended Colonial American RPG books
I'll be running Omega 99 at next weekend's TravellerCon/USA. I decided to update my Omega 99 character sheets a bit from the previous versions. The only real change is that I've updated the wound tracker section, so that it cleanly displays only the check boxes needed to keep track of injuries. All of the old … Continue reading Omega 99: Final Character Sheet
I just ran a one-shot of In the Light of a Ghost Star, the rules-light science fantasy RPG from the Highland Paranormal Society.

Players are humans from Mars, who travel to Earth to scavenge for … Continue reading In the Light of a Ghost Star: fillable character sheets for a science fantasy RPG

There, they … Continue reading Golgotha Mini-Review & Character Sheet
I recently ran a one-shot of the Zorro RPG from Gallant Knight Games. It's a lot of fun, so I thought I'd post a mini-review and share some custom character sheets I've made. The Game The players will play members of Zorro's Legion, brave rebels battling injustice and tyranny in Alta California (early 1800s) The … Continue reading Zorro RPG: Mini-Review and Character Sheets
I'm a fan of the Mongoose adaption of Judge Dredd, the long-running British sci-fi comic. They put out two versions, a D20 version, and the version I prefer - the Traveller version. Mongoose no longer has the license to Judge Dredd, but paper copies of the book can still be found. I don't believe there's … Continue reading Judge Dredd for Traveller: A custom fillable character sheet
The RPG company Mongoose had the license for the Judge Dredd comic for a few years, and released both D20 and Traveller versions. I'm sort of fond of the Traveller version. I even made a fillable version of their character sheet. I wasn't entirely happy with their version, so I decided to try making my … Continue reading WIP: Character Sheet for the Traveller version of the Judge Dredd RPG
Chaosium recently re-released Beyond the Mountains of Madness, their adventure for the 6th edition of Call of Cthulhu.
